The red warning light on the instrument

an incorrectly released handbrake.

Pull upwards, check that the vehicle is

brake is properly released
when driving (red indicator

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.

Anti-lock braking system
ANtI-locK BRAKING SyStEM: ABS
Depending on the vehicle, this is com-
posed of:
–
ABS (anti-lock braking system);
– emergency brake assist with, de -
pending on the vehicle, braking
anticipation;
These functions are an ad-
ditional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav-
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
However, the functions do not take
the place of the driver. th
ey do
not increase the vehicle’s limits
and should not encourage you
to drive more quickly. Therefore,
they can under no circumstances
replace the vigilance or responsibil-
ity of the driver when manoeuvring
the vehicle (the driver must always
be ready for sudden incidents which
may occur when driving).
ABS (Anti-lock Braking
System)
Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents
the wheels from locking, allowing the
stopping distance to be managed and
keeping control of the vehicle.
Under these circumstances, the vehi-
cle can be steered to avoid an obstacle
whilst braking. In addition, this system
can increase stopping distances, par-
ticularly on roads with low surface grip
(wet ground etc.).
You will feel a pulsation through the
brake pedal each time the system is
activated. The ABS does not in any way
improve the vehicle’s physical perform-
ance relating to the road surface and
roadholding. It is still essential to follow
the rules of good driving practice (such
as driving at a safe distance from the
vehicle in front etc.).
In an emergency, apply firm and
continuous pressure to the brake
pedal. There is no need to pump
it repeatedly. The ABS will modu-
late the force applied in the braking
system.
operating faults:
– If the
x warning light on the in-
strument panel comes on while driv-
ing, braking is still operational ;
–
If the
x and D warning
lights on the instrument panel come
on when driving, this indicates a
fault with the braking system.
In such cases, the ABS and emergency
brake assist are also deactivated and,
depending on the vehicle, the mes-
sages “check ABS” and “check brak-
ing system” appear on the instrument
panel.
Consult an approved dealer.
Yo u r b r a k i n g s y s t e m s
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.

Rear bench seat
We would advise you to move the front
seats forward slightly to make it easier
to fold the seatback with the headrests
in position.
Make sure the headrests are in the cor-
rect position when the seat is returned
to its upright position.
For the split bench seat and seatback,
place the headrests in the storage po-
sition, then fold back the smaller sec-
tion of the seatback first followed by the
larger section.
Lift the bench seat base forwards by
p
ulling the two rings 2 , one after the
other.
Fold the seat base and the seatback
into a vertical position.
t o fold down the bench seat
Move one of the two levers 1 on the
right or left-hand side of the bench seat
forwards.
For a single section bench seat and
seatback, arrange the central belt
flat on the seat base before folding the
seatback.

For safety reasons, carry
out any adjustments when
the vehicle is not being
driven.
When moving the bench
seat, ensure that the seat
belt catches are correctly
locked in position.
When the bench seat has been put
back in place, make sure that it is
correctly locked and the seat belts
are correctly repositioned.
When moving the rear bench
seat, make sure the bench
seat anchorage points are
clean (they should be free
from grit, cloths etc.).
When refitting the seatback,
make sure it is correctly
locked.
If using seat covers, make
sure they do not prevent the seat-
back and seat base latches from
locking in. Ensure that the seat belts
and seat belt fasteners are correctly
positioned.
Reposition the headrests.
