speed will slow to normal wiping speed.
As soon as the vehicle moves off,
wiping will return to the speed originally
selected.
If stalk 1 is operated, it overrides and
cancels the automatic function.Vehicle fitted with intermittent

WINDSCREEN WASH/WIPE (1/4)
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– they must remain clean: clean the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the winds- creen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year.
Before using the rear wiper, check
that no object obstructs the travel of
the blade.
Do not use the wiper arm to open or
close the tailgate.

1.83
WINDSCREEN WASH/WIPE (3/4)
Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the au-
tomatic wiping, the wiper is set to inter-
mittent wiping. Contact an authorised
dealer.
The operation of the rain sensor can be
disturbed in the event of: – damaged wiper blades; a screen
of water or traces left by a blade in
the sensor’s detection zone may
increase the response time of the
automatic wiper, or increase the
wiping frequency;
– a windscreen with any chip or
crack level with the sensor, or a
windscreen covered in dust, dirt,
insects, ice, the use of washing
wax and water-repellent chemi-
cals; the automatic wiping will
be less sensitive, or even unres-
ponsive.

Special note
When driving the vehicle, the wiping
speed slows down whenever the vehi-
cle stops. For example, fast wiping
speed will slow to normal wiping speed.
As soon as the vehicle moves off,
wiping will return to the speed originally
selected.
If stalk 1 is operated, it overrides and
cancels the automatic function.
Precautions
– In the event of ice, check whether the
blades are stuck to the windscreen
before operating the wiping mecha-
nism. If you activate the wipers while
the blades are stuck down with ice,
you may risk damaging both the
blade and the wiper motor.
– Do not activate the wipers on a dry
screen. This will lead to the prema-
ture wear or damage to the blades.
In the event of obstacles present
on the windscreen (dirt, snow, ice,
etc.), clean the windscreen (inclu-
ding the central area located behind
the interior rear-view mirror) and
the rear screen before starting the
wipers (risk of motor overheating).
If an object is preventing a blade
from moving, it may stop functio-
ning. Remove the obstacle and
reactivate the wiper using the wiper
stalk.
Before any action involving
the windscreen (washing
the vehicle, de-icing,
cleaning the windscreen,
etc.) return stalk 1 to position A
(stop).
Risk of injury and/or damage.

Windscreen washer
With the ignition on, pull stalk 1 then
release.
A brief pull will trigger a single sweep
of the wipers, in addition to the winds-
creen washer.
A longer pull will trigger three sweeps
of the wipers followed, a few seconds
later, by a fourth, in addition to the
windscreen washer.
Note:
In temperatures below zero, the washer
liquid risks freezing to the windscreen,
thereby reducing visibility. Heat the
windscreen using the demister control
before cleaning.
Headlight washers
Headlights on
On equipped vehicles, hold stalk 1
pulled towards you for about 1 second,
and the headlight washers and winds-
creen washers will be activated at the
same time.
Note: to ensure the headlight washers
operate correctly in winter, remove
snow from the jet trims and de-ice the
jet trims using an aerosol de-icer.
You are recommended to regularly
remove dirt encrusted on the headlight
glass.
When the minimum windscreen washer
fluid level is reached, the headlight
washer system may be deprimed.
Fill the windscreen washer fluid and
then activate the windscreen washer,
with the engine running , to reprime
the system.In the event of obstacles present
on the windscreen (dirt, snow, ice,
etc.), clean the windscreen (inclu-
ding the central area located behind
the interior rear-view mirror) and
the rear screen before starting the
wipers (risk of motor overheating).
If an object is preventing a blade
from moving, it may stop functio-
ning. Remove the obstacle and
reactivate the wiper using the wiper
stalk.
Before any action on the
windscreen (washing the
vehicle, de-icing, cleaning
the windscreen, etc.) return
stalk 1 to position A (park).
Risk of injury and/or damage.
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in position A (park).
Risk of injury.

Activating/deactivating the rear
screen wiper (depending on the vehi-
cle)
If your vehicle is fitted with a vehicle
settings customisation menu, it is pro-
grammed to activate the rear wipers
when reverse gear is selected (if the
windscreen wipers are on). You can
choose to activate or deactivate the
function. To do this, please refer to
“Vehicle settings customisation menu”
in Section 1, regarding the “Auto rear

Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– they must remain clean: clean the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind- screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year.

FUEL TANK (2/3)
Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle to
open valve A and insert it fully before
turning it on to fill the fuel tank (risk of
splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position through-
out the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi-
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The valve A and its
surround must remain clean.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
Persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as traf- fic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.
Vehicle fitted with the Stop and
Start function
To fill up with fuel, the engine must
be stopped (and not on standby):
stop the engine by pressing the
engine stop button 1 (please refer
to the information on “Starting and
Stopping the engine” in Section 2).
