BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (2/3)
Degrease or clean using
high-pressure cleaning
equipment or by spray-
ing on products not ap-
proved by our Technical
Department:
– mechanical components (e.g.:
engine compartment);
– underbody;
– parts with hinges (e.g.: inside the
doors);
– painted plastic external fittings (e.g.:
bumpers).
Doing this could give rise to corrosion
or operational faults.
What you should not do
Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or
freezing temperatures.
Do not scrape off mud or dirt without
pre-wetting.
Allow dirt to accumulate on the exterior.
Allow rust to form following minor im-
pacts.
Do not use solvents not approved by
our Technical Department to remove
stains as this could damage the paint-
work.
Do not drive in snow or muddy condi-
tions without washing the vehicle, par-
ticularly under the wheel arches and
body.

4.16
Using a roller type car wash
Return the windscreen wiper stalk to
the Park position (refer to the informa-
tion on the “Windscreen washer, wiper”
in Section 1). Check the mounting of
external accessories, additional lights
and mirrors, and ensure that the wiper
blades are secured with adhesive tape.
Remove the radio aerial mast if your
vehicle is fitted with this equipment.
Remember to remove the tape and refit
the antenna after washing.
Vehicles with a matte paint
finish
This type of paint requires certain pre-
cautions.
You should do the following
Wash the vehicle by hand using plenty
of water, using a soft cloth or a gentle
sponge.
Do not do the following
Use wax-based products (polishing).
Rub too hard.
Wash the vehicle in a roller-type car
wash.
Attach stickers to the paintwork (risk of
leaving marks).
Wash the vehicle
using a high-pressure
cleaning device.
BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (3/3)Cleaning the headlights
As the headlights are made of plastic
“glass”, use a soft cloth or cotton wool
to clean them. If this does not clean
them properly, moisten the cloth with
soapy water, then wipe clean with a soft
damp cloth or cotton wool.
Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry
cloth.
Do not use cleaning products con-
taining alcohol or utensils (e.g.: a
scraper).

4.17
Glass instrument panel(e.g. instrument panel, clock, exterior
temperature display, radio display, etc.)
Use a soft cloth (or cotton wool).
If this does not clean them properly,
use a soft cloth (or cotton wool) slightly
moistened with soapy water and then
wipe clean with another soft damp cloth
or cotton wool.
Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry
cloth.
Do not use products containing alco-
hol and/or spray fluids on the area.
Seat belts
These must be kept clean.
Use products selected by our Technical
Department (Approved outlets) or
warm, soapy water and a sponge and
wipe with a dry cloth.
Detergents or dyes must not be used
under any circumstances.
INTERIOR TRIM MAINTENANCE (1/2)
Textiles (seats, door trim, etc)
Vacuum-clean the textiles regularly.
Liquid stain
Use soapy water.
Dab lightly (never rub) with a soft cloth,
rinse and remove the excess.
Solid or pasty stain
Carefully remove the excess solid or
pasty material immediately with a
spatula (working from the edges to the
centre to avoid spreading the stain).
Clean as for a liquid stain.
Special instructions for sweets or
chewing gum
Put an ice cube on the stain to solidify
it, then proceed as for a solid stain.
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the interior of the vehicle regu-
larly.
A stain should always be dealt with
swiftly.
Whatever type of stain is on the trim,
use
cold (or warm) soapy water with
natural soap.
Detergents (washing-up liquid, pow-
dered products, alcohol-based prod-
ucts) should not be used.
Use a soft cloth.
Rinse and soak up the excess.
For further recommendations for
maintaining the interior, and/or for
any unsatisfactory results, please
see an authorised dealer.

TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/4)
In the event of a puncture, use the kit
situated under the passenger footwell 1
by unscrewing the two screws 2.With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
– Connect the compressor hose 4 to
the container inlet 9;
– remove the cap from the container inflation adapter 3;
– unscrew the valve cap on the rele- vant wheel and screw on the contai-
ner’s inflation adapter 3;
– disconnect any accessories pre- viously connected to the vehicle’s
accessories sockets;
– the end piece 7 must be plugged in
to the vehicle accessories socket;
563
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.
9
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.
– press switch 5 to inflate the tyre to
the recommended pressure (please
refer to the information on “Tyre in-
flation pressure” in Section 4);
– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 6).
Note: While the container empties (approx. 30 secs), the pressure
gauge 6 briefly shows pressure up to
6 bar, then the pressure drops.
– Adjust the pressure: to increase it, continue inflation with the kit; to
reduce it, press button 8.

5.8
Tyre pressuresAdhere to the tyre pressures. 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.Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
loss warning system
If under-inflated (puncture, low pressure
etc.), the warning light
 on the in-
strument panel comes on. See “Tyre
pressure loss warning” in Section 2.
Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist. Fitting differ-
ent tyres may change your
vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– it may change the way it handles when cornering;
– it may cause the steering to be heavy;
– it may affect the use of snow chains.
If the 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.
Changing wheels around
TYRES (2/3)
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.
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).
The front and rear wheels
have different dimensions.
For safety reasons, it is not
permitted to switch the front
wheels (tyres and/or rims) with the
rear wheels.

5.10
For your safety, do not
remove the bonnet holding
straps.
Risk of the bonnet falling
on the road surface.
Dipped/Main beam headlight
To change the bulb:
– disconnect wiring 1;
– remove cover A;
– unclip the spring 3 and remove the
bulb.
Bulb type: H4.
It is essential to use anti-U.V. 55W
bulbs so as not to damage the plastic
on the headlights.
Do not touch the bulb glass. Hold it
by its base.
When the bulb has been changed,
make sure you refit the cover correctly.
FRONT HEADLIGHTS: changing bulbs (1/2)
Direction indicator lights
Turn the bulb holder 2 a quarter of a
turn and take out the bulb.
Bulb type: PY21W.
Once the bulb has been replaced,
check that it is properly secured.

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.
Risk of injury.

Daytime running lights 4
Please see an authorised dealer.
Front fog lights 5
– Access the bulb holder via the un-
derneath of the vehicle;
– unclip the flap;
– unscrew the bulb holder.
Bulb type: H16.Any operation on (or modi-
fication to) the electrical
system must be performed
by an approved dealer
since an incorrect connection might
damage the electrical equipment
(harness, components and in partic-
ular the alternator). In addition, your
Dealer has all the parts required for
fitting these units.
