(1) raise the seat to the maximum and position it as far back as possi\
ble, tilting the seatback slightly (approximately 25°).
(2) A carrycot can be installed across the vehicle and will take up at least two seats. Place the child with its feet nearest the door.
(3) Move the front seat as far forward as possible to install a rear-facing \
child seat, then move back the seat in front as far as it will
go, although without allowing it to come into contact with the child sea\
t.
(4) Forward-facing child seat; position the seatback of the child seat in co\
ntact with the seatback of the vehicle seat. In all sit ua-
tions, remove the rear headrest of the seat on which the child seat is p\
ositioned. This must be done before fitting the child s eat
(please refer to the section entitled “Rear headrests” in Section\
3).
(5) RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY: before installing a child seat on the front passenger seat, check that \

EXTERIOR LIGHTING AND SIGNALS (3/3)
fRear fog light
Turn the centre ring 4 on
the stalk until the symbol is opposite
mark 3, then release it.
Depending on the vehicle, the stalk re-
turns to the initial position or stays in
position.
Operation of the fog lights depends on
the exterior lighting selected, and an in-
dicator light will light up on the instru-
ment panel.
To avoid inconveniencing other road
users, remember to switch off the rear
fog light when it is no longer needed.
Turning off the fog lights
There are two possibilities:
– manually, depending on the vehi- cle, turn the ring 4 again to bring the
mark 3 opposite the symbol for the
fog light that you want to switch off,
or bring the ring 4 into position 0. The
corresponding indicator light will go
out on the instrument panel;
– the lights will go out automati- cally when the engine is switched
off or the vehicle is locked, and the
fog lights when the driver’s door is
opened.
The front and rear fog lights switch off
when the exterior lights are switched
off.
When driving in fog or snow, or
when transporting objects which are
higher than the roof, the headlights
do not come on automatically.
Switching on the fog lights remains
the responsibility of the driver: the
indicator lights on the instrument
panel inform you whether the fog
lights are lit (indicator light on) or not
(indicator light not on).

In freezing or snowy weather, ensure
they are not stuck to the windscreen
(including the central area located
behind the interior rear-view mirror)
and the rear screen before starting
the wipers (risk of motor overheat-
ing).
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– they must remain clean: clean the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind- screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year.
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in position A (park).
Risk of injury.
Do not try to lift the wiper blades.

wipers.
A prolonged action triggers, in addition
to the rear windscreen wipers, a contin-
uous sweep until the stalk is released,
then two return wipes followed by a
third, after a few seconds.
Special note
If the windscreen wipers are operat-
ing or are in automatic mode, the rear
screen wiper wipes intermittently when
reverse gear is engaged.

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.
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 airbags and preten-
sioners will no longer operate.

MAINTENANCE AND ANTIPOLLUTION ADVICE
Your vehicle complies with criteria for
recycling and recovering vehicles at the
end of their service life which will come
into force in 2015.
Some parts of your vehicle have there-
fore been designed to facilitate future
recycling.
These parts are easy to remove so
that they can be recovered and reproc-
essed by recycling companies.
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel
consumption and initial settings, your
vehicle also conforms to current anti-
pollution regulations. The manufac-
turer is actively striving to reduce pol-
lutant exhaust gas emissions and to
save energy. But the fuel consumption
of your vehicle and the level of pollutant
exhaust gas emissions are also your
responsibility. Ensure that it is main-
tained and used correctly.
Maintenance
It is important to remember that fail-
ure to respect anti-pollution regulations
could lead to legal action being taken
against the vehicle owner.In addition, replacing engine, fuel
supply system and exhaust compo-
nents with parts other than those origi-
nally recommended by the manufac-
turer may alter your vehicle so that it
no longer complies with anti-pollution
regulations.
Have your vehicle adjusted and
checked by an authorised dealer, in ac-
cordance with the instructions given in
your maintenance schedule: they will
have all the equipment necessary for
ensuring that your vehicle is maintained
to its original standard.
Engine adjustments
– Spark plugs:
for optimum condi-
tions of use, output and performance
the specifications laid down by our
Design Department must be strictly
applied.
If the spark plugs have to be changed, use the make, type and gap specified
for your vehicle’s engine. Contact an
authorised dealer for this.
– Air filter, fuel filter: a choked ele-
ment will reduce efficiency. It must
be replaced.
– Ignition and idle speed: no adjust-
ment is needed.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub-
stances may be released into the at-
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in-
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult an approved Dealer as soon as possi-
ble;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed until the light stops flashing. Contact
an authorised dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
