EMERGENCY CALL (1/2)
1
23

A call is always made as follows:
– the call is set up with the emergency services;
– data related to the event is sent out;
– voice communication with the emer- gency services;
– if necessary, emergency assistance is called.
Emergency call has two modes:
– automatic mode;
– manual mode;
1 Phone network availability light: on if
network available (green light), off if
network not available;
2 Automatic mode warning light;
3 SOS switch;
4 Microphone;
5 Speaker.
If the vehicle is equipped with it, the
emergency call is a system that allows
the emergency services to be called
automatically or manually in the event
of an accident or illness, in order to
reduce the time they take to arrive on
the scene.
If you use the emergency call func-
tion to report an accident which you
have witnessed, this implies stopping
where traffic conditions allow to allow
the emergency services to locate your
vehicle and therefore the location of the
reported accident.
Use emergency call only in
the event of an emergency
if you are involved in or wit-
ness an accident or if you
feel ill.In the event of an accident,
it is recommended that you
stay close to the vehicle so
that you can respond to the
call centre if necessary.

Manual mode
The emergency call is triggered by
pressing switch 3.
Emergency call has two modes:
– in normal mode by pressing switch 3
for more than 3 seconds;
– in panic mode by pressing switch 3
five times in less than 10 seconds.
Automatic mode
When warning light 2 is on, this indi-
cates that the automatic system is ac-
tivated.
With ignition switched on, the emer-
gency call is triggered automatically in
the event of an accident with airbag ac-
tivated. Data are transmitted to the call
centre (vehicle identification plate, time
of the call, vehicle position, direction of
the vehicle, etc).
The automatic emergency call is acti-
vated by default and can be disabled
on request of the user at an Approved
Dealer. In the event of unintended operation, it
is possible to cancel the call by press-
ing switch 3
for 2 seconds before the
call to the call centre is set up.
Once a call is established, only the call
centre can end the call.
Operating faults
In some cases, the emergency call
function may not work:
– no fault detected and phone network
unavailable;
– low battery;
– ...
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault, the warning light 1 turns red;
consult an Approved Dealer as soon as
possible.

one month : the message “Service due in” is displayed along
with the nearest limit (distance or time);

Depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change varies accord\
ing to the driving style (frequent driving at low speed ,
door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idling speed, towing a trailer, etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change can
therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distance t\
ravelled.
Resetting: to reset the mileage before a service, press and hold button 2 for approximately 10 seconds until the display shows

event of an oil change, both the distance before the next service and th\
e next oil change should be reset.

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

WINDSCREEN WASH, WIPE (1/6)
E
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– they must remain clean: clean the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind- screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
In all cases, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately once a year.
Before using the rear wiper, check
that no object obstructs the travel of
the blade.
Do not use the wiper arm to open or
close the tailgate.
