Adjusting the height of the
front seat belts
Press button 8 to adjust the seat belt
height so that the shoulder strap 1 is
worn as shown previously;
Press button 8 and raise or lower the
seat belt.
Make sure that the seat belt is locked
in position correctly after you have ad-
justed it.
SEAT BELTS (3/3)
– No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally
fitted restraint system: belts, seats and their mountings. For special o\
p-
erations (e.g. fitting child seats), contact an authorised dealer.
– Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes
pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too loosely may cause inj\
ury in the
event of an accident.
– Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.
– Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby o\
r child on your lap with your seat belt around them.
– The belt should never be twisted.
– Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if neces\
sary. Always replace your seat belts as soon as they show any signs of wear.
– Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.
– Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch\
as they could prevent it from being properly secured.
– Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be \
hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or objects).
1.31
CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly
seated and strapped in for all journeys.
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children
are at risk of specific injuries as their
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone
would not provide suitable protection.
Use an approved child seat and ensure
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph
(50 km/ h) is the same
as falling a distance of
10 metres. Transporting a
child without a restraint is the equiv-
alent of allowing him or her to play
on a fourth-floor balcony without
railings.
Never travel with a child held in your
arms. In the event of an accident,
you will not be able to keep hold of
the child, even if you yourself are
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved
in a road accident, replace the
child seat and have the seat belts
checked.
To prevent the doors being
opened, use the childproof
locks (please refer to the in-
formation on “Locking/un-
locking the doors” in Section 1).
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on 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 by locking the
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.

INJURY.

SCREEN WASHER/WIPER (2/2)
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in position A (park).
Risk of injury.
In snowy or icy conditions, make
sure the wiper blades are not stuck
by ice.
Keep an eye on the condition of the
blades. Replace the wiper blades as
soon as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).
Before any action involving
the windscreen (washing
the vehicle, de-icing, clean-
ing the windscreen, etc.)
return stalk 1 to position A (park).
Risk of injury and/or damage.

release.

Automatic main beam
headlights
Depending on the vehicle, this system
switches the main beam headlights on
and off automatically. The function uses
a camera located behind the interior
rear-view mirror to detect vehicles that
are following and coming in the oppo-
site direction.
The main beam headlights come on au-
tomatically if:
– exterior light is weak;
– no other vehicles or lighting are de-tected;
– the vehicle speed is above approxi- mately 30 mph (45 km/h).
If any of the above conditions are not
fulfilled, the system switches to dipped
beam headlights.
The “automatic main beam
headlights” system should
under no circumstances be
used to replace driver atten-
tion and responsibility with regard
to vehicle lighting and adapting to
light, visibility and traffic conditions.Using the portable naviga-
tion system at night in the
windscreen area below the
camera may disturb the op-
eration of the “automatic main beam
headlights” system (risk of reflection
on the windscreen).
The system may encounter difficul-
ties under certain conditions, inclu-
ding :
– extreme weather conditions (rain, snow, fog, etc.);
– obstruction in front of the wind- screen or camera;
– when a following or oncoming ve- hicle has weak or hidden lighting;
– incorrect settings for the front headlights;
– reflective systems;
– ...
Activation
Turn ring 3 until the AUTO symbol is op-
posite mark 2.
Pull stalk 1 to activate main beam
headlights. Warning light
comes
on the instrument panel.
Deactivation
– Pull stalk 1 again;
– or turn ring 3 to a position other than AUTO.
Warning light
goes out on the
instrument panel.
