ACTIVE EMERGENCY BRAKING (6/7)
Active emergency braking
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due\
 care 
and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle. The triggering of this function may be 
delayed or prevented when the system detects clear signs of control of t\
he vehicle by the driver (action on the steer-
ing wheel, pedals etc.).
System servicing/repairs
–  In the event of an impact, the radar-camera alignment may be changed, an\
d its operation may consequently be affected.  Deactivate the function, then consult an authorised dealer.
–  Any work in the area where the radar-camera is located (repairs, replac\
ements, windscreen modifications etc.) must be car- ried out by a qualified professional.
Only an authorised dealer is qualified to service the system.
In the event of system disturbance
Some conditions can disturb or damage the operation of the system, such \
as:
–  a complex environment (metal bridge, tunnel etc.);
–  poor weather conditions (snow, hail, black ice etc.);
–  poor visibility (night, fog etc.);
–  poor contrast between the object (vehicle, pedestrian etc.) and the su\
rrounding area (e.g. pedestrian dressed in white lo- cated in a snowy area etc.);
–  being dazzled (glaring sun, lights of vehicles travelling in the opposi\
te direction etc.);
–  windscreen obscured (by dirt, ice, snow, condensation etc.).
Risk of inadvertent braking.

TYRES (1/3)
Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition 
and the tread form must have sufficient 
depth; tyres approved by our Technical 
Department have tread wear indica-
tors 1 which are indicators moulded 
into the tread at several points .
The tyres are the only contact between 
the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-
tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres 
conform to local road traffic regulations.
When the tread has worn down to the 
wear warning strips, 
these strips will 
become visible  2: it is then necessary 
to replace your tyres because the tread 
rubber is now  only 1.6 mm deep at 
most, resulting in poor road holding 
on wet roads.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys 
by motorway, particularly in very hot 
weather, or continual driving on poorly 
surfaced minor roads will lead to more 
rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
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.

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 a speed capacity at 
least equal to the original tyres, 
or correspond to those recom-
mended by your 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.
