Advice on antipollution, fuel economy and driving
ADvIcE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (1/3)
Engine adjustments
– Ignition: this does not require ad-
justment.
–
Spark plugs: for optimum fuel econ-
omy, efficiency and performance,
the specifications laid down by our
Design Department must be strictly
applied.
If the spark plugs have to be changed,
use the make, type and gap specified
for your vehicle’s engine. Contact an
approved Dealer for this.
–

Idle speed: this does not require ad-
justment.
–

Air filter, diesel filter: a choked el-
ement hinders performance. It must
be replaced.
Maintenance
It should be noted that failure to respect
antipollution regulations may lead to
legal action being taken against the
vehicle owner. In addition, replacing
engine, fuel supply system and exhaust
components with parts other than those
originally recommended by the manu-
facturer may alter your vehicle so that
it no longer complies with antipollution
standards.
Have your vehicle checked and ad-
justed by an approved Dealer in ac-
cordance with the instructions in your
Maintenance Service Booklet. Your
Dealer has all the equipment necessary
for ensuring that your vehicle is main-
tained to its original standard.
Your vehicle has been designed to
actively strive to reduce the pollutant
exhaust gas emissions and to save
energy.
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel
consumption and initial settings, your
vehicle conforms to current antipollu-
tion regulations. But the fuel consump-
tion of your vehicle and the level of pol-
lutant exhaust gas emissions are also
your responsibility. Make sure that your
vehicle is maintained and used cor-
rectly.

Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system
will detect any operating faults in the
vehicle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub-
stances may be released into the at-
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThe instrument panel warning
light shows any system faults:
This comes on when the ignition is
switched on and goes out after 3 sec-
onds.
–
if it lights up continuously, consult an
approved Dealer as soon as possi-
ble;
–

if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.
ADvIcE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
Driving
– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
–

Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot. –

Brake as little as possible by suitably
anticipating an obstacle or bend and
then simply releasing the accelerator
pedal.
–

Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in -
termediate gears. Always use the
highest gear possible without labour-
ing the engine.
–

Do not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on the level. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
–

Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
–

Bad weather, flooded roads.
Do not drive through floods
if the depth of water is
above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.

Depending on the vehicle, remote un-
locking of the doors triggers timed light-
ing of the passenger compartment. If
one of the front or rear doors is opened,
the period for which the light is switched
on will start again.
Then the courtesy light and the luggage
compartment light dim and go out.
The lighting timer will cut out for vari-
ous reasons:
–

if a door has been open for 15 min -
utes;
–

if all the doors have been closed for
15 seconds:
–

when the ignition is switched on.Courtesy light 5

never leave a child (or a
pet) unsupervised, even for a short
while.

comes trapped, reverse the direc-

general information
If the level is at minimum: “ok” will not
appear on the display; dashes and “oil”
will flash (message 2) and, depending
on the vehicle,
ø lights up on the
instrument panel.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
The
ø warning light comes on
while driving when the oil change/serv-
ice interval is reached.

Minimum oil level warning on

When the ignition has been switched
on for approximately 30 seconds:
If the level is above the minimum
level , the display shows display mes-
sage

For more information, press the trip
mileage recorder reset button.
The squares which appear on the dis-
play indicate the level. These symbols
disappear as the oil level drops and
they are replaced by dashes.
engIne OIL LeveL: general information (1/2)
The display only warns the
driver if the oil level is at the
minimum level. It does not
inform the driver that the oil
level has exceeded the maximum
level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is normal to top up the level be-
tween oil changes. However, contact an
approved Dealer if more than 0.5 litres
is being consumed every 600 miles
(1,000 km) after the running in period.
Oil change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and certainly
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the
vehicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
t h

e dipstick must be used to read
the exact oil level and make sure
that the maximum level has not been
exceeded (risk of engine damage).
Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only alerts
the driver when the oil level is at its min-
imum.

Connect the positive (+) lead A to (+)
t
erminal 1 of the discharged battery,
then
to (+) terminal 2 of the battery sup-
plying the current.
C

onnect the negative (–) lead B to (–)
t

erminal 3 of the battery supplying the
current
and then to (–) terminal 4 of the
discharged battery.
Check that there is no contact between
leads

A and B and that the positive (+)
l
ead A is not touching any metal parts
on the vehicle supplying the current.
Start the engine as normal. As soon as
it

is running, disconnect leads A and B
in the reverse order (4-3-2-1)
connecting a battery charger
the  battery  charger  must  be  com- 
p
atible  with  a  battery  with  nominal   
voltage
 of 12 volts.
Switch the engine off and then discon-
nect both battery leads s
tarting with   
the
 negative terminal .
Do not disconnect the battery when the
engine is running. Follow
 the  instruc- 
t
ions  given  by  the  manufacturer  of   
the
 battery charger you are using.
starting the vehicle using the   
battery
 from another vehicle
If you have to use the battery from an-
other vehicle to start, obtain suitable
jump leads (with a large cross section)
from an approved dealer or, if you al-
ready have jump leads, ensure that
they are in perfect condition.
t

he  two  batteries  must have an iden - 
tical

  nominal  voltage of 12  volts. The
battery supplying the current should
have a capacity (amp-hours, Ah) which
is at least the same as that of the dis-
charged battery.
Ensure that there is no risk of contact
between the two vehicles (risk of short
circuiting when the positive terminals
are connected) and that the discharged
battery is properly connected. Switch
off your vehicle ignition.
Start the engine of the vehicle supply-
ing the current and run it at an interme-
diate engine speed.
Special procedures may be
required to charge some
batteries. Contact your ap-
proved dealer.
Avoid all risk of sparks which may
cause an immediate explosion, and
charge the battery in a well-venti-
lated area. Risk of serious injury.

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
1
2
– 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.
