Advice
The incorrect installation of a child seat in
a vehicle compromises the child's protection
in the event of an accident.
Ensure that there is no seat belt or seat belt
buckle under the child seat, as this could
destabilise it.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the
child seat harnesses keeping the slack
relative to the child's body to a
minimum,
even for short journeys.
When installing a


child seat using the seat
belt, ensure that the seat belt is tightened
correctly on the child seat and that it secures
the child seat firmly on the seat of your
vehicle. If your passenger seat is adjustable,
move it for wards if necessary.
At rear seating positions, always leave
sufficient space between the front seat and:
-

a r
ear ward facing child seat,
-

t
he child's feet for a child seat fitted
forward facing.
To do this, move the front seat for wards
and, if necessary, move its backrest into the
upright position.
For optimal installation of the "forward facing"
child seat, verify that its backrest is as close
as possible to the backrest of the vehicle
seat, if possible in contact with it. The head restraint must be removed
before installing a
child seat with
a
backrest on a passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from being
thrown around the vehicle in the event of
sharp braking. Refit the head restraint when
the child seat is removed.
Children at the front
The legislation on carrying children on the
front passenger seat is specific to each
country. Refer to the legislation in force in
your country.
Deactivate the passenger's front airbag when
a
rear ward facing child seat is installed on the
front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child risks being seriously
injured or killed if the airbag is deployed.
Installing a


booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be
positioned on the child's shoulder without
touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt
passes correctly over the child's thighs. We recommend using a
booster seat with
a backrest equipped with a belt guide at
shoulder level.
As a
safety precaution, do not leave:
-

a c
hild or children alone and unattended in
a


vehicle,
-

a c
hild or an animal in a vehicle under the
sun, with the windows closed,
-

t
he keys within the reach of children inside
the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors
and rear windows, use the child lock.
Take care not to open the rear windows by
more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of the
sun, fit side blinds on the rear windows.

You can change mode at any time by
moving the gear selector from A to M or
vice-versa.
Never select neutral N when the vehicle
is moving.
Temporary control of gear changing
You can temporarily take over control of gear
changes using the steering mounted + and -
control paddles: if the engine speed allows, the
gear change is carried out.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations, such as overtaking another vehicle
or approaching a bend in the road.
Following a
few moments with no action on
the control paddles, the gearbox returns to
automatic operation.
Manual mode
F Select position M .
Reverse
To engage reverse gear, the vehicle must be
stationary with your foot on the brake pedal.
F

Sel
ect position R .
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can:
-
c hange to position N to be in neutral, or
-

l
eave the vehicle in gear; in this case the
vehicle cannot be moved.
For all parking situations, you must apply
the parking brake to immobilise the
vehicle.
The gears engaged appear in turn in
the instrument panel. The gear change requests are only executed if
the engine speed permits.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator
when changing gear.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
changes down automatically to allow the
vehicle to accelerate in the correct gear.
Under full acceleration, the change up will
not take place unless the driver operates the
gear selector or the steering mounted paddles
(except if the engine is close to its maximum
speed).
You can change mode at any time by
moving the gear selector from A to M or
vice-versa.
Never select neutral N when the vehicle
is moving. There is an audible signal upon
engagement of reverse.
At low speed, if reverse gear is requested, the
N warning lamp flashes and the gearbox goes
into neutral automatically.
To engage reverse, put the gear selector into
position N , then to position R .
When immobilising the vehicle with the
engine running, you must put the gear
selector into neutral (position N ).

Exceeding programmed
speed
F Press firmly on the accelerator pedal,
going beyond the point of resistance, to
exceed the programmed speed limit.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the programmed speed, which is still
displayed, flashes.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of
intentional or unintentional deceleration of the
vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of
the speed.
Exiting speed limiter mode
F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the 0 position: the
speed limiter mode is deselected. The
display returns to the total mileage recorder.
Malfunction
In the event of a speed limiter fault, the speed
i s cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes. On sharp acceleration, as when
descending a
steep hill, the speed limiter
will not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that mats are secured correctly,
-
n
ever place one mat on top of another.
Have it checked in the dealer network or by
a

qualified workshop.
Cruise control
System which automatically
maintains the speed of the vehicle
at the value programmed by the
driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is switched off
manually or
by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the trajectory control systems for
safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by depressing the accelerator
pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed setting.
Cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Steering mounted controls
The cruise control is switched on manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40


km/h).
As well as the engagement:
-

O
f fourth gear on a manual gearbox.
-

I
n sequential mode, of second gear on an
electronic or automatic gearbox.
-

Malfunction
In the event of a cruise control fault, the speed
i s cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes.
Have it checked by an authorised dealer or by
a


qualified workshop. When cruise control is active, be careful
when holding one of the speed setting
buttons: this may result in a
very rapid
change in the speed of your vehicle.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery
roads or in heavy traffic.
When descending a


steep hill, the cruise
control system cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:
-

E
nsure that mats are secured correctly.

Active City Brake
Active City Brake is a driving assistance
s ystem that aims to avoid a frontal collision
or reduce the speed of an impact if the driver
does not react sufficiently (inadequate brake
application).
This system has been designed to
improve driving safety.
The driver must always check the traffic
and assess the distances and relative
speeds of other vehicles.
Active City Brake cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Never look at the laser sensor through
an optical instrument (magnifying glass,
microscope, etc.) at a
distance of less
than 10
centimetres: risk of eye injury!
Principle
Using a laser sensor located at the top of the
w indscreen, this system detects a vehicle
running in the same direction or stationary
ahead of your vehicle.
When necessary, the vehicle's braking system
is operated automatically to avoid a
collision
with the vehicle ahead.
Automatic braking occurs later than if
done by the driver, so as to inter vene only
when there is a
high risk of collision.
Conditions of activation
Active City Brake functions if the following
conditions are met:
-
ig
nition on,
-

t
he vehicle is moving for ward,
-

t
he speed is between about 3 and 19 mph
(5
and 30 km/h),
