éHazard warning lights
Pressing switch 3 illuminates
all four direction indicators and the
side-mounted indicator lights simul-
taneously. It must only be used in an
emergency to warn other drivers that
you have had to stop in an area where
stopping is prohibited or unexpected, or
that you are obliged to drive under spe-
cial conditions.
Depending on the vehicle, the hazard
warning lights may come on automati-
cally under heavy deceleration. You can
switch them off by pressing switch 3.
Horn
Press one of points 2.
Direction indicators
Move stalk 1 parallel to the steering
wheel and in the direction you are going
to turn.
When driving on the motorway, the
steering wheel is not often turned
enough to return the stalk automatically
to 0. There is an intermediate position in
which the switch may be held when
changing lanes.
You can also briefly place stalk
1 in the
intermediate position, causing the indi-
cator light to flash three times.
When the stalk is released, it automati-
cally returns to 0.
Headlight flasher
Pull stalk 1 towards you to flash the
headlights.

No modifications what-
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (electronic unit,
wiring, fuel circuit, injector, protec-
tive covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (unless undertaken by
qualified Network personnel).
Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle
so that the valve opens and then fully
insert it before beginning to fill the tank
(risk of splashback).
Keep the nozzle in this position through-
out the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made so as to leave sufficient
room for expansion.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck consists of a restrictor fitted with
a foolproof system which only allows
a nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
FUEL TANK (2/3)
Persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle when traffic con-
ditions allow it and switch off the
ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from the traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.
Petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) should match
the information given on the label A lo-
cated inside the fuel filler flap. Please
refer to the information on “Engine
specifications” in Section 6.
Vehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
It is essential to use unleaded petrol or
fuel containing a maximum of 85% eth-
anol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine. To avoid this problem you can
use unleaded petrol, or you can use
the heater that is integrated into the
engine (on vehicles that are equipped):
Connect the end piece of the extension
provided to the socket fitted in the grille,
and the other end piece to a 220 V
socket for at least 6 hours before start-
ing the vehicle.
NB: you may notice an increase in fuel
consumption with this type of fuel.

STOP AND START function (1/3)
Warning light  is displayed on the
instrument panel. This notifies you that
the engine is on standby.
The vehicle equipment remain opera-
tional while the engine is stopped.
The engine will restart as soon as you
press the clutch pedal and move into
gear.
This system enables a reduced fuel
consumption and lower greenhouse
gas emissions.
The system is activated automatically
when the vehicle is started.
While driving, the system stops the
engine (standby) when the vehicle is
at a standstill (traffic jam, traffic lights,
etc).
System operating conditionsEngine standby is activated if:
– the vehicle has been driven since its last stop;
– the gearbox is in neutral;
– the clutch pedal is released;
and
– the vehicle is travelling at less than 3 km/h. Special feature of the automatic
engine re-start
Under certain conditions, the engine
can restart on its own in order to guar-
antee your safety and comfort.
This can occur especially when:
– the outdoor temperature is too low or
too high (less than around 0 °C or
higher than around 35 °C);
– the “Clear View” function is acti- vated if fitted on the vehicle (please
see “Automatic Climate Control” in
Section 3);
– the battery is not sufficiently charged;
– the vehicle speed is above 7 km/h (downhill slope, etc.);
– repeated pressing on the brake pedal or braking system require-
ment;
– on vehicles fitted with a manual gear- box, engine restarting may be inter-
rupted if the clutch pedal is released
too quickly while a gear is engaged;
– ...
Do not drive off when the
engine is on standby (warn-
ing light
 is displayed
on the instrument panel).
The ignition must be
switched off before leav-
ing the vehicle (please see
the information on “Starting,
stopping the engine” in Section 2).
If you get out of the vehicle, a beep
notifies you that the engine is on
standby and has not been switched
off.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
– make sure that the battery is always fully charged;
– always keep the diesel tank rela- tively full to prevent water vapour
condensing in it and accumulating at
the bottom of the tank.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with an injec-
tion pump with an electronic regulator
which prevents overrevving of the
engine irrespective of the gear en-
gaged.
If the
Ä and © warning lights
come on, consult an approved dealer
as soon as possible.
Running out of fuel
You may start the engine normally after
refilling the fuel tank even if you have
completely run out of fuel, provided
that the battery is fully charged.
However, if the engine does not start
after a few seconds and several at-
tempts, refer to the information on the
“Fuel tank” in Section 1.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (2/4)
ECO mode
ECO mode is a function which opti-
mises fuel consumption. It acts upon
certain power consuming systems in
the vehicle (heating, air conditioning,
power-assisted steering, etc.) and on
certain driving actions (acceleration,
gear changing, cruise control, deceler-
ation, etc.).
Activating the function
Press switch 4.
The warning light in the 4 switch lights

take pressure off the accelerator pedal.
Disabling the function
Press switch 4.
The indicator light in the switch 4 goes
out.
Journey record
Once the engine is switched off, you
will see “Journey record” displayed on
the screen 3, enabling you to view in-
formation relating to your last journey.
This indicates:
– average fuel consumption;
– number of miles/kilometres travelled;
– number of miles/kilometres saved.

Depending on the vehicle, the func-
tion is active every time the engine
is started. A label is attached to the
dashboard to notify you.
