A few definitions
Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remaining
in the tank (at the average fuel
consumption seen over the last
distance travelled).
This value may fluctuate if a
change
of driving style or terrain results in
a

significant change in the current fuel
consumption.
When the range falls below around 20
miles
(30

km), dashes are displayed. After filling with
at least 5

litres of fuel, the range is recalculated
and is displayed if it exceeds around 60
miles
(10 0


k m).
If dashes instead of figures continue to be
displayed when driving, contact the dealer
network or a
qualified workshop.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or km/l or l/100 km)
C alculated during the last few
seconds. This function is only displayed from
around 20 mph (30 km/h).
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or km/l or l/100 km)
C alculated since the last time the
trip recorder was reset to zero.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Calculated since the last time the
trip recorder was reset to zero.
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
Calculated since the last time the
trip recorder was reset to zero.
Distance remaining to travel
(miles or km)
This is the distance remaining to
travel before the final destination is
reached. It can be input by the user.
If the distance is not entered, dashes
are displayed instead of numbers.
Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop &
Start, a time counter adds up the
time spent in STOP mode during
a


j o u r n ey.
It is reset to zero every time the
ignition is switched on using the key.

Do not use the function when the seat is
not occupied.
Reduce the intensity of the heating as
soon as possible.
When the seat and passenger
compartment have reached an adequate
temperature, you can stop the function;
reducing the consumption of electrical
current reduces fuel consumption.Prolonged use at the highest setting is
not recommended for those with sensitive
skin.
There is a
risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness,
taking medication, etc.).
There is a
risk of overheating the system if
material with insulating properties is used,
such as cushions or seat covers.
Do not use the system:
-

i
f wearing damp clothing,
-

i
f child seats are fitted.
To avoid breaking the heating element in
the seat:

-

d
o not kneel or stand on the seat,
-

d
o not place sharp objects on the seat,
-

d
o not spill liquids onto the seat.
To avoid the risk of short-circuit:
-

d
o not use liquid products for cleaning
the seat,
-
n

ever use the heating function when
the seat is damp.Access to the rear seats
Ensure that only the appropriate control is
used, located at the top of the backrest.

F Pull the selector towards the – sign to change down a gear.
It is only possible to change from one gear to
another if the vehicle speed and engine speed
permit; otherwise, the gearbox will operate
temporarily in automatic mode.
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear
i s not engaged correctly (selector
between two positions).
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can
engage position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to keep
the vehicle stationary.
If the selector is not in position P , when the
driver's door is opened or approximately
45
seconds after the ignition is switched
off, a warning message appears on the
screen.

When driving on flooded roads or when
crossing a
ford, proceed at walking pace.
Operating fault
D disappears and the gears
engaged appear in succession in
the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
gear selected flashes for a
few seconds, then
the actual gear engaged is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M (manual) at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox selects gear
M1


automatically.
The sport and snow programmes are inactive
in manual operation. When the ignition is on, the lighting
of this warning lamp, associated with
an audible signal and a
message
on the screen, indicates a
gearbox
fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3
rd gear. You may then
feel a

substantial jolt when changing from P to
R and from N to R . This jolt will not cause any
damage to the gearbox. Do not exceed 60
mph (100 km/h), local speed
restrictions permitting.
Contact a dealer approved by
DS AUTOMOBILES or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
-
i
f you press the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time,
-
i
f you force the selector from position P
to another position when the battery is
flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when at
a prolonged standstill with the engine
running (traffic jam, etc.), put the
selector in position N and apply the
parking brake.
Automatic gearbox (EAT6)
Six speed automatic gearbox which offers
a choice between the comfort of fully automatic
operation or manual gear changing.
Two driving modes are available:
-

a
utomatic operation for electronic
management of the gears by the gearbox,
-

man
