Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the
bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance
(roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer, etc.). u
s
e a roof box in
preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on
maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in
the door aperture, on the driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-
a
t each change of season,
-
a
fter a long period out of use.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter,
passenger compartment filter, etc.) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3
000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

Service indicator
System which informs the driver when the
next service is due, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
th
e point at which the next service is due
is calculated from the last service indicator
zero
reset.
It is determined by two parameters:
-
t
he distance travelled (in miles (km)),
-
t
he time elapsed since the last service
(in months).
th
e distance remaining to be travelled may be
weighted by the time factor, depending on the
use made of the vehicle.
Example: the screen indicates that 7300 miles
(kilometres) remain before the next service is
due.Service overdue
Example: the screen indicates that the service
is overdue. th is service must be carried out by

Manual gearbox
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for servicing of
the gearbox.
"CVT" gearbox
For servicing of the "CVt" gearbox,
refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for details of the interval for
checking this component.
Particle filter (Diesel)
the start of saturation of the particle filter is
indicated by the temporary illumination of this
warning lamp, accompanied by a message in
the instrument panel screen. As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a
speed of at least 25 mph (40 km/h) for
about 20 minutes (with the 1.6 litre HDi
engine, the minimum speed is 37 mph
(60 km/h)).
If the warning lamp stays on, this
indicates a low additive level.
For more information on Checking
levels
and the Diesel additive level in
particular, refer to the corresponding
section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration.
