displayed continuously in the instrument panel.
Low energy alerts
Four successive energy level alerts indicate
that the energy available in the main battery
has dropped to a low level:
-
2 l
it and flashing bars on the energy gauge
in the instrument panel: starting to use the
reserve.
-
T
he final bar on the energy gauge flashes.
-

Energy consumption/
generation indicator
System informing the driver of the level of
energy consumption or generation by the main
battery.
"Neutral" position
On switching on the ignition, your vehicle
neither consumes nor generates energy
through its electric drive train: the needle is in
the "neutral" position (provided the heating and
air conditioning are off).
Energy consumption
The needle moves to the right, in proportion to
the consumption of energy by the vehicle.
"Eco" zone
The needle is in this zone when the vehicle is
used in a way that limits the consumption of
electric energy and optimises its range.

In cold weather, the capacity to regenerate
through braking is reduced.
Total distance recorder "Charge" zone
The needle moves to the left, in proportion to
the level of charge going into the main battery,
during periods of deceleration and braking.

Service indicator
System which informs the driver when the
next ser vice is due, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
This due date is calculated from the last reset
of the service indicator.
There are two different ways to indicate when

emaining distance (in kilometres or miles),
-
t
ime (in months) left before the next
service.
Once the ignition is switched on, press
button
A successively until the ser vice indicator
is displayed in the desired units.
Operation
1. The display shows the distance or time
remaining before the next service.
2. The display shows that the ser vice is due.
Each time the ignition is switched on, the
ser vice spanner is displayed for a few
seconds to notify you that the ser vice
must be carried out very soon.
3. Once the ser vice has been completed,
the distance or the time remaining before
the next ser vice is displayed.

Resetting the service indicator
After each service, the service indicator must
be reset to zero.
The procedure for resetting to zero is as
follows:

P
ress the reset button A in succession until
the service indicator is displayed.
F
P
ress and hold the reset button down for a
few seconds to make the spanner flash .
F
P
ress the reset button whilst the spanner
is flashing to move the display " ---" to
" CLEAR ".
The distance (or the time) remaining before
the next ser vice is displayed. The distance "
---" indicating that the
ser vice is now due is reset automatically
after a certain time and a certain distance
travelled. The display will then indicate the
remaining time before the next service.
Under-inflation detection
You must reinitialise the under-inflation
detection system after adjusting one or more
tyre pressures and after changing one or more
wheels.
The procedure for this is as follows.
F
P
ress button A to select the system.
F

Range indicator
This function provides you with an estimated
range that your vehicle can still travel, taking
into account your recent conditions of use
(driving style, use of heating, air conditioning,
e t c .) .When the remaining range is too low, " ---"
is displayed in the instrument panel.
The remaining range can be displayed in
miles or kilometres.

Airbags
The airbags do not operate when the
ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only deploy once. If a
second impact occurs (during the same or
a subsequent accident), the airbag will not
be deployed again.
Impact detection zones
A.Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
Airbag deployment generates slight
smoke emissions and a noise, due to the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive
individuals may experience slight irritation.
The detonation noise associated with the
deployment of an air bag may result in a
slight loss of hearing for a short time.
The airbags are designed to help enhance the
safety of occupants in the event of a serious
collision. They complement the action of the
safety belts equipped with force limiters.
If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors
record and analyse the front and side impacts
sustained in the impact detection zones:
-
i
f there is a violent impact, the airbags
deploy instantly and help better protect
occupants of the vehicle; immediately after
the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly
in order not to hinder the visibility or the
possible exit of the occupants.
-
i
n the case of a minor or rear impact or in
certain roll-over conditions, the airbags
may not be deployed; the seat belt
alone contributes towards ensuring your
protection in these situations.
Front airbags
This system protects the driver and front
passenger from the risk of injury to the head
and chest in the event of a severe frontal
impact.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the
steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag is
fitted in the dashboard above the glove box.
Activation
The airbags are deployed (except the
passenger's front airbag if it is deactivated) in
the event of a severe frontal impact to all or part
of the frontal impact zone A , in the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane
and directed from the front to the rear of the
vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the front
occupant of the vehicle and the dashboard, to
cushion their forward movement.
