Special note
When driving the vehicle, the wiping
speed slows down whenever the ve-
hicle stops. For example, fast wiping
speed will slow to normal wiping speed.
As soon as the vehicle moves off,
wiping will return to the speed originally
selected.
If stalk 1 is operated, it overrides and
cancels the automatic function.Vehicle fitted with intermittent
windscreen wipers
A single sweep
A short push will trigger one sweep
of the wipers.

C intermittent wiping
The wipers will pause for several
seconds between sweeps. It is
possible to change the time be-
tween sweeps by turning ring 2.

E fast continuous wiping
Positions A, C and D are accessible
with the ignition on. Position E is
accessible only when the engine is
running.

Efficiency of a wiper blade
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. How long they last depends
on you:
– it must remain clean: clean the blade and the screen regularly
with soapy water;
– do not use it when the screen is dry;
– free it from the screen when it has not been used for a long time.
In any event, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately every year (refer to the
information on “Wiper blades: re-
placement” in section 5).
Precautions for using the
wipers
– In freezing or snowy weather, clear the screen before starting
the wipers (risk of motor over-
heating);
– ensure that no objects are ob- structing the travel of the blade.

Positions A and D are accessible

Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the
automatic wiping, the wiper is set to
intermittent wiping. Contact an au-
thorised dealer.
The operation of the rain sensor can
be disturbed in the event of:
– damaged windscreen wipers; a
film of water or traces left by a
blade in the sensor’s detection
zone may increase the response
time of the automatic wipers, or
increase the wiping frequency;
– a windscreen with any chip or
crack level with the sensor, or a
windscreen covered in dust, dirt,
insects, ice, the use of washing
wax and water-repellent chemi-
cals; the windscreen wiper will
be less sensitive or may even not
react at all.

Precautions
– In the event of ice, check whether the
blades are stuck to the windscreen
before operating the wiping mecha-
nism. If you activate the wipers while
the blades are stuck down with ice,
you may risk damaging both the
blade and the wiper motor.
– Do not activate the wipers on a dry
screen. This will lead to the prema-
ture wear or damage to the blades.

In extreme cold weather conditions
Fill the reagent tank as soon as pos-
sible when the warning light
and the message “Top up AdBlue
before 1200 km” are displayed.
The reagent fluid freezes below about
-10°C.
In these conditions, do not attempt fill-
ing when the fluid is frozen. In the event
of needing to top up or fill the tank
with reagent (
on), park the ve-
hicle in a hotter location if possible so
that the reagent becomes liquid again.
Otherwise, have a qualified profes-
sional top up or fill up with reagent fluid.
Precautions for use
When filling, handle the reagent care-
fully.
They can damage clothes, shoes,
bodywork components etc.
If the reagent overflows, or contami-
nates any paintwork, clean the affected
area quickly with plenty of cold water
and a soft cloth.
Note: If the reagent crystallises, use a
soft sponge.
The reagent must not come
into contact with eyes or
skin. If it does, wash the af-
fected area with plenty of
cold water. If necessary, consult a
doctor.
REAGENT TANK (2/4)
No work whatsoever is
permitted on any part of
the system. To prevent
damage, only qualified per-
sonnel from our network may work
on the system.
After filling the reagent tank, check
that the cap and cover are closed,
start the engine and WAIT 10 sec-
onds with the vehicle stationary,
engine running before setting off
again.
If this operation is not carried out,
the filling of the tank will not be
taken into account automatically

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS (2/2)/PARTICLE FILTER
If, after approximately 20 minutes, the
indicator light remains lit, consult an
Approved Dealer.
Note: if the vehicle is stopped before
the warning light disappears, you will
have to restart the process from the be-
ginning.Particle filter
The particle filter is used in the treat-
ment of exhaust gases from petrol en-
gines.
When driving, depending on the grade
of fuel used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted. This is due to
the exhaust particle filter being cleaned
automatically, and does not affect the
way the vehicle runs.
Depending on the vehicle, the warning
light
displayed on the instrument
panel indicates that the filter is becom-
ing clogged and requires cleaning. To
clean it, when the
warning light
appears, and as traffic conditions and
speed limits allow, drive at between
about 31 mph (50 km/h) and 68 mph
(110 km/h) until the light goes out.
After between approximately 5 and
20 minutes, the warning light should go
out.
Warning light ® re-
quires you to stop immedi-
ately, for your own safety,
as soon as traffic conditions
allow. Switch off the engine and do
not restart it. Contact an approved
Dealer.
If the filter becomes saturated, the
© warning light and, depending
on the vehicle, the
warning light
will appear on the instrument panel, ac-
companied by the message “Check in-
jection”. In this case, please consult an
Authorised Dealer.
If the
® warning light and, depend-
ing on the vehicle, the
warning
light appears, accompanied by the
“Engine failure hazard” message, stop
the vehicle, switch off the engine and
contact an Approved Dealer.
