Screen wash product (product with
antifreeze in winter).
Checking the level
Use the “dropper cap”. To do this, plug
the hole 4 with your finger, remove the
cap then read the gauge built into the
cap.
Note: Regularly check the reservoir
level by topping up the liquid before
taking a trip.
Jets
To adjust the windscreen washer jets,
please consult an authorised dealer.
Filters
The replacement of filter components
(air filter, cabin filter, diesel filter, etc.)
is scheduled in the maintenance opera-
tions for your vehicle.
Replacement intervals for filter el-
ements: refer to the Maintenance
Document for your vehicle.

BATTERY (1/2)
1
Battery 1 does not require any mainte-
nance. You should not open it or add
any fluid.
Handle the battery with care
as it contains sulphuric acid
which must not come into
contact with the eyes or
skin. If it does, wash the affected
area with plenty of cold water. If
necessary, consult a doctor.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
Depending on the vehicle, a system
continuously checks the battery charge
status. If this decreases, the message
“Battery low start engine” is displayed
on the instrument panel. In this case,
start the engine. The message will go
off.
The charge status of your battery can
decrease especially if you use your ve-
hicle:
– for short journeys;
– for driving in town;
– when the temperature drops;
– after extended use of energy-con- suming devices (radio, etc.) with the
engine switched off.
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off (please see
the information on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
Please note when work-
ing close to the engine that
it may be hot. The engine
cooling fan may also start
at any moment. The
warning
light in the engine compartment re-
minds you of this.

TYRE PRESSURE KIT (2/3)
In the event of a puncture, use the kit
located in the boot, underneath the
boot carpet.
With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
– Unscrew the cap from recess 3 on
the bottle;
– unscrew the bottle cap 2;
– screw the bottle 2 onto the compres- sor at the bottle recess point 3;
– unscrew the valve cap on the rele- vant wheel and screw the inflation
adapter 6 onto the valve;
– disconnect any accessories previ- ously connected to the vehicle’s ac-
cessories sockets;
– the plug 4 must be connected to the
vehicle accessories socket;
– press switch 5 to inflate the tyre to
the recommended pressure (please
refer to the information in the section
on “Tyre pressure”);
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
– after a maximum of 10 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 1).
Note: while the container is empty-
ing (approximately 30 seconds), the
pressure gauge 5 will briefly indicate
a pressure of up to 6 bar. The pres-
sure will then drop.
– adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflating with the kit.
If the recommended pressure of
1.8 bar cannot be achieved after
10 minutes, repair is impossible. Do
not drive the vehicle. Consult an au-
thorised dealer.

Continue to crank the jack so that the
baseplate is correctly positioned (it
should be underneath the vehicle and
aligned with the jack head).
Switch on the hazard warn-
ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level surface
where it will not slip.
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse, or P for auto-
matic transmissions).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.
CHANGING A WHEEL (1/2)
Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use the wheelbrace 1 to slacken off the
wheel bolts. Position it so as to be able
to push from above.
Crank up the jack 3 by hand to align
the jack head between the 2 jacking
points 2 closest to the relevant wheel.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.

TYRES (2/3)
Tyre pressures
Adhere to the tyre pressures (including
the emergency spare wheel). The tyre
pressures should be checked at least
once a month and additionally before
any long journey (refer to the label af-
fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).The pressures should be checked cold:
ignore higher pressures which may be
reached in hot weather or following a
high speed journey.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are
cold, increase the
pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Special note
Depending on the vehicle, there may
be an adapter which needs to be posi-
tioned on the valve before air is added. Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
monitoring system
In cases of under-inflation (puncture,
low pressure, etc.), warning light
lights up on the instrument panel.
Please refer to the information on the
“Tyre pressure monitoring system” in
Section 2.
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on “Puncture”
and “Changing a wheel” in Section 5.
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
– poor road holding,
– risk of bursting or tread separa- tion.
The pressure depends on the load
and the speed of use. Adjust the
pressure according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the label affixed
to the edge of the driver’s door).
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss-
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.Changing a wheel
As the tyre pressure moni-
tor may take several min-
utes to correctly determine
the positions of the wheels and the
pressure values after driving, check
the tyre pressures following any op-
eration.

On the right-hand side of the vehicle,
you will need to remove the filler neck 4
for the windscreen washer tank to
access the bulbs. To do this:
– unscrew the funnel 4;
– pull the funnel 4.
After replacing the bulbs, you must put
the air duct A back into position. To do
this, perform the above operation in re-
verse.
FRONT HEADLIGHTS: changing bulbs (1/3)
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
be switched off (please see
the information on “Starting, stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).

BATTERY: troubleshooting (1/2)
To avoid all risk of sparks:
– Ensure that any consumers (cour-tesy lights, etc.) are switched off
before disconnecting or reconnect-
ing the battery;
– when charging, stop the charger before connecting or disconnecting
the battery;
– to avoid creating a short circuit be- tween the terminals, do not place
metal objects on the battery;
– always wait at least one minute after the engine has been switched off
before disconnecting a battery;
– make sure that you reconnect the battery terminals after refitting.
Connecting a battery charger
The battery charger must be com-
patible with a battery with nominal
voltage of 12 volts.
Do not disconnect the battery when the
engine is running. Follow the instruc-
tions given by the manufacturer of
the battery charger you are using.
Special procedures may be
required to charge some
batteries. Contact your ap-
proved dealer.
Avoid all risk of sparks which may
cause an immediate explosion, and
charge the battery in a well venti-
lated area. Risk of serious injury.
Before performing any
action in the engine com-
partment, the ignition must
