Never leave your vehi-
cle with the key inside and
never leave a child (or pet)
unsupervised, even for a
short time.
There is a risk that they could start
the engine or operate electrical
equipment (electric windows etc.)
and trap part of their body (neck,
arms, hands, etc.).
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before
the vehicle has stopped completely.
Switching off the engine disables
the assistance equipment: brakes,
steering, etc., and passive safety
equipment such as air bags and
pretensioners.

stopped, depending on the
gradient and/or the vehicle
load, it may be necessary to
apply the handbrake by at least two
further notches and engage a gear
(1
st or reverse).
Never switch off the igni-
tion when travelling down-
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).An impact to the underside of the vehicle (e.g.: striking a post, raised kerb
or other street furniture) may result in damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have your vehicle checked by an approved
dealer.

tyrEs (2/3)
Pressures should be checked when the
tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures
which may be reached in hot weather
or following a fast journey.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, the normal
pressures must be increased by 0.2 to
0.3 bar (or 3 P
si).

hicle, there is an adapter which must be
positioned on the valve before adding
air.
Fitting new tyres
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on “Puncture”
and “Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
t yre pressuresRespect the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). Check
them at least once a month and before
a long journey (refer to the label on the
edge of the driver’s door).
incorrect  tyre  pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
–

poor road holding;
– risk of bursting or tread separa -
tion.
The pressure depends on the load
and the speed of use. Adjust the
pressures according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the information
on “Tyre pressures”).
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
–

may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
–

it may change the way it handles
when cornering;
–

it may cause the steering to be
heavy;
–

It may affect the use of snow
chains.

Fuses
Remove the fuse using tweezers 2.
To remove the fuse from the tweez-
ers, slide the fuse in the direction of the
arrow.
In accordance with local legislation
or as a precautionary measure:
Obtain an emergency kit containing
a set of spare bulbs and fuses from
your approved Dealer.

If an electrical component does not
work, check the condition of the fuses. U nclip cover
3 (under the steering
wheel).
To identify the fuses, refer to fuse allo-
c
ation label 4 (shown on the page op-
posite).
It is not advisable to use the free fuse
locations.
Check the fuse in question and replace it, if necessary,  with a fuse  of  
the
 same rating .
If a fuse is fitted where the rating is too high, it may cause the electrical
circuit to overheat (risk of fire) in the event of an item of equipment using
an excessive amount of current.

Only  use the front 1 and rear  towing   
points 2 (never use the drive shafts).
These towing points may only be used
for in-line traction: never use them for
lifting the vehicle directly or indirectly.
Towing: breakdown
When the engine is stopped,
steering and braking assist-
ance are not operational.
t he  steering  wheel  must  be  un- 
locked
  and  the ignition  key must  be  
in
  position m  (ignition on) to provide   
s
top  lights  and  direction  indicators   
on
  the  towed  vehicle.  At night  the ve- 
hicle
 must have its lights on.
You must observe the towing regu-
lations which apply in the country in
which you are driving: do not exceed
the towing weight for your vehicle.
Contact your approved Dealer.
tOWing:  breakdown

– Use a rigid towing bar. If a
rope or cable is used (where
the law allows this), the ve-
hicle being towed must be
able to brake.
–

A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
–

Avoid accelerating or braking sud -
denly when towing, as this may
result in damage being caused to
the vehicle.
–

When towing a vehicle, it is ad -
visable not to exceed 1
5 mph 
(25 km/h).
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.
