TYRES (1/3)
For your safety, please re-
spect the speed limit.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the 
same make, size, type and profile 
should be used on a single axle.
They must: either have a load ca-
pacity and speed rating at least 
equal to those of the original 
tyres, or conform to those recom-
mended by an authorised dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions 
could endanger your safety and 
affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-
ness.
Risk of loss of control of the ve-
hicle.
Incidents which occur when 
driving, such as striking the 
kerb, may damage the tyres 
and wheel rims, and could 
also lead to misalignment of the 
front or rear axle geometry. In this 
case, have the condition of these 
checked by an approved dealer.
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 
pressure according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the label affixed 
to the edge of the driver’s door).
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.
Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out 
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may change 
your vehicle as follows:
–  it 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. 

5.22
RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL: battery
Do not dispose of your used 
batteries in the countryside. 
Give them to an organisa-
tion that collects and recy-
cles used batteries.
1
Replacing the remote control 
battery
Undo screw  1 to remove the remote 
control cover. Replace battery 
2 according to the di-
rection marked on the cover.
Note:  It is not advisable to touch the 
electronic circuit in the key cover when 
replacing the battery.
When refitting, ensure that the cover 
is correctly clipped on and the screw 
tightened.
The batteries are available from ap-
proved Dealers, and their service 
life approximately two years.
Check that there is no dye on the 
battery: risk of an incorrect electri-
cal contact.

The following advice will enable you to carry out quick, temporary repai\
rs. For safety reasons you should always contact 
an approved dealer as soon as possible.
Using the remote controlPOSSIBLE CAUSES ACTION REQUIRED

unlock the doors. The remote control battery is flat.
Use the emergency key.
Use of appliances operating on the same 
frequency as the remote control (mobile 
phone, etc.). Stop using the devices or use the key.
Vehicle located in a high electromagnetic 
radiation zone.
Discharged battery. Replace the battery. You can still lock/
unlock and start your vehicle (refer to the 
information on “Locking/unlocking the 
doors” in Section 1 and “Starting/Stopping 
the engine” in Section 2).

unlocking device is blocked. Turn off the 
ignition.
