Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone in your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or locking the
doors, for example.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.

gradient. Risk of non-ac-
tivation of power-assisted
steering.
There is a risk of accidents.
Never switch off the igni-
tion before the vehicle has
stopped completely. Once
the engine has stopped, the
brake servo, power-assisted steer-
ing, etc. and the passive safety de-
vices such as air bags and preten-
sioners will no longer operate.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (4/4)
Advice on use
– Favour ECO mode.
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the brim to avoid overflow.
– In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es-
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping to preserve
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob- jects.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind deflector and adjust it carefully.
– Avoid using the car for door-to-door calls (short journeys with long waits
in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.
Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres can increase fuel consumption.

Adjusting the ventilation fan
speed.
Turn control 3 from 0 to 4. The further to
the right it is positioned, the more air is
blown into the passenger compartment.
If you want to shut off the flow of air, set
control 3 to 0.
The system is deactivated: the ventila-
tion speed for the passenger compart-
ment air is zero (vehicle stationary),
you can however still feel a slight flow
of air when the vehicle is moving.
Note:
Leaving this control in position 0 for
prolonged periods can lead to conden-
sation forming on the side windows and
windscreen and problems due to the
use of non-renewed air in the passen-
ger compartment.
Rapid demisting

Using the climate control increases the
speed of demisting.
MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING (1/4)

Information and advice on use: refer
to information on “Air conditioning: in-
formation and advice on use”.
Adjusting the air temperature
Turn control 5 to obtain the desired

MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING (2/4)
Switching passenger
compartment isolation mode/
air recirculation mode on.
Press button 4 (the warning light comes
on).
Under these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle.Air recirculation is used to:
– to isolate the passenger compart-
ment from the external atmosphere
(e.g. driving in polluted areas, etc.);
– to bring the passenger compartment to the desired temperature as quickly
as possible.

Rear screen de-icing/
demisting
With the engine running, press
switch 6. The integrated indicator light
comes on.
This function permits rapid demisting/
de-icing of the rear screen and de-icing
of the door mirrors (on equipped vehi-
cles).
To exit the function , press switch 6
again.
Demisting automatically stops.
4
Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on t\
he side
windows and windscreen, and discomfort due to the use of non-renewed air\
in
the passenger compartment. We therefore advise you to return to normal mode
(external air) as soon as the air recirculation function is no longer \
required, by
pressing the button 4 again.
