Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
t emperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F

T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a
check on the coolant
temperature.

I
f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not tow a
trailer before having driven at
least 620
miles (1,000 kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
engine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle.
For more information on Headlamp
beam height adjustment , refer to the
corresponding section.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid
functions are automatically disabled if an
approved towing device is used.

of the driver. It continuously selects the most
suitable gear according to the driving style, the
road profile and the load in the vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without touching
the selector, press the accelerator fully down
(kick-down). The gearbox changes down
automatically or holds the gear selected until
the maximum engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox shifts down
automatically to provide effective engine
braking.

gearbox will not shift to a higher gear for safety
reasons.

Hill start assist
System that holds your vehicle for around
2 seconds, the time it takes to move your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated. However, use of the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts
its function. Hill start assist is only available when:
-

y
our foot on the brake pedal fully
immobilises the vehicle,
-

c
ertain slope conditions are met,
-

t
he driver's door is closed.Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.
If you need to leave the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the parking brake
manually. Then ensure that the parking
brake warning lamp is on fixed in the
instrument panel.

Stop & Start
The system puts the engine temporarily into
standby – STOP mode – during stops in the
traffic (red lights, traffic jams, etc.). The engine
restarts automatically – START mode – as
soon as you wish to move off again. Restarting
occurs instantaneously, quickly and silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
STOP mode
This indicator lamp comes on in the
instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby.

seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal. A time counter calculates the
time spent in STOP mode during
a
journey. It is reset to zero every
time the ignition is switched on
using the key.
For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
The Stop & Start system does not affect

Reversing camera
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed on the touch screen.
The reversing camera function may be
supplemented with parking sensors.
The superimposed representation of guide
lines helps with the manoeuvre.
They are represented as lines marked "on the
ground" and do not indicate the position of the
vehicle in relation to tall obstacles (e.g. other
vehicles).
Some distortion of the image is normal.
The blue lines 1 represent the general direction of
t he vehicle (the distance between them represents
the width of your vehicle without the door mirrors).
The red line 2
represents a distance of about
30
cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
The green lines 3
represent distances of about
1
and 2 metres beyond the edge of your vehicle's
rear bumper.
The reversing camera cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
High-pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, do not direct
the lance from less than 30
cm from the
lens of the camera.
Opening the tailgate causes the display to
disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a
soft, dry cloth.
Park Assist
The system detects a parking space and then
p rovides assistance with the parallel parking
manoeuvres.
The Park Assist system cannot in any
circumstances replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
The driver must remain in control of their vehicle
ensuring that the space remains clear during the
manoeuvre.
In some circumstances, the sensors may not
detect small obstacles located in their blind spots.
During manoeuvring phases, the steering
wheel per forms rapid turns: do not hold
the steering wheel, do not put your hands
between the spokes of the steering wheel.
Watch out for any object that could block
the manoeuvre (loose clothing, scar ves,
ties, etc.) – Risk of injury!
It controls the steering and provides visual and
audible information to the driver.
If you have a
manual gearbox, the driver
manages the acceleration, braking, gears and
clutch.
With an automatic gearbox, the driver manages
the acceleration, braking and gears.
The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
