Instruments and warning/control lamps
Normal temperature
If in norm
al
operations, the diodes light up
until the central zone, it means that the en-
gine has reached operating temperature. At
high outside temperatures and when making
the engine work hard, the diodes may contin-
ue lighting up and reach the upper zone. This
is no cause for concern, provided the control
lamp does not light up on the instrument
panel digital display.
Heat range
When the diodes light up in the upper area of
the display and the control lamp appears
on the instrument panel display, the coolant
temperature is excessive ››› page 269. CAUTION
● To en s
ure a long useful life for the engine,
avoid high revs, driving at high speed and
making the engine work hard for approxi-
mately the first 15 minutes when the engine
is cold. The phase until the engine is warm al-
so depends on the outside temperature. If
necessary, use the engine oil temperature*
››› page 42 as a guide.
● Additional lights and other accessories in
front of
the air inlet reduce the cooling effect
of the coolant. At high outside temperatures
and high engine loads, there is a risk of the
engine overheating.
● The front spoiler also ensures proper distri-
bution of the c
ooling air when the vehicle is moving. If the spoiler is damaged this can re-
duce the c
oo
ling effect, which could cause
the engine to overheat. Seek specialist assis-
tance. Fuel level

the lower diode flashes in red.

Never run the fuel tank completely dry. An ir-

For anti-theft security, only the driver door is
fitted w ith a loc
k cylinder.Safe security system*
1)This is an anti-theft device which consists of
a doubl
e loc
k for the door locks and a deacti-
vation function for the boot in order to pre-
vent forced entry.
Activation
The “safe” system is activated when the vehi-
cle is locked using the key or the remote con-
trol.
To activate it with the key, rotate once it is in-
serted in the door lock cylinder in the locking
direction.
To activate the system using the remote con-
trol, press the lock button once on the re-
mote.
Once this system is activated, opening doors
from the outside and the inside is not possi-
ble. The rear lid can not be opened. The cen-
tral lock button does not work.
When the ignition is switched off, the instru-
ment panel display indicates that the “Safe”
system is on. Deactivation
Rot
at
e the key inserted in the lock cylinder
twice towards the locking direction.
To activate the system using the remote con-
trol, press the lock button on the remote
twice in less than five seconds.
On deactivating the “Safe” system, the alarm
volumetric sensor is also deactivated.
With the “Safe” switched off, doors can be
opened from the interior but not from the ex-
terior.
See “Selective unlocking system*”
“Safe” status
On the driver door, there is warning lamp visi-
ble from outside the vehicle through the win-
dow which shows the “Safe” system status.
We will know that “Safe” system is activated
by the flashing warning lamp. The indicator
will flash on all vehicles, fitted and nor fitted
with an alarm, until they unlock.
Remember:
Safe activated with or without an alarm:
warning lamp flashes continuously.
Safe deactivated without an alarm: the warn-
ing lamp stays off. Safe deactivated with an alarm: the warning
l amp stays off. WARNING
No one should remain inside the vehicle if the
“Safe” sy s
tem is activated because opening
the doors will not be possible in the event of
an emergency neither from the inside nor the
outside and help from the outside is made
difficult. Danger of death. Passengers could
become trapped inside in case of emergency. Selective unlocking system*
This system allows to unlock either just the
driv
er door or al
l
the vehicle.
Driver door unlock button
Unlock once. Use either the key or the remote
control.
Once the key is inserted in the lock cylinder,
rotate once in the unlock direction. The driver
door will remain without “Safe” and un-
locked. In vehicles fitted with an alarm, see
the Anti-theft Alarm section ›››
page 138.
Using the remote control, press the unlock
button on the remote once. The “Safe” sys-
tem for all the vehicle is deactivated, only the »1)

● Loc
k
ing the doors and rear lid prevents ac-
cess from the outside (for safety reasons, e.g.
when stopped at a traffic light).
● The driver door cannot be locked while it is
open. This
avoids the user from forgetting his
key inside the vehicle.
● All doors can be unlocked separately from
inside the
vehicle. To do so, pull the door re-
lease lever once. WARNING
● If the v
ehicle is locked, children and disa-
bled people may be trapped inside it.
● Repeated operation of central locking will
prevent
the central lock button from working
for a few seconds. Then, it can only be un-
locked in case it has been previously locked.
After few seconds, the central locking be-
comes operative again.
● The central lock button is not operative
when the vehic
le is locked from the outside
(with the remote control or the key). Related videos Keyless Access

Keyless Access is a key-free locking and igni-

without actively using its key. To do this, all
that is required is to have a valid vehicle key
in the detection area where you are attempt-
ing to access the vehicle ››› Fig. 143 and to
touch one of the sensor surfaces on the door
handles ››› Fig. 144 ››› .
The v

the driver door only. When doing so, the re-
mote control key must be no further than ap-
prox. 1.5 m from the door handle.
It does not matter where you carry the key, for
instance whether it is in your jacket pocket or
in a briefcase. »
