Access
2remote control or unlock the vehicle using the
“Keyless Entry and Starting” system.
Doors
Your vehicle has doors with frameless windows.A window micro-descent system is activated
when the door is opened and closed, as soon as
an action is performed on the interior or exterior
door handle.
Opening
From outside

► After unlocking the vehicle or with the
Keyless Entry and Starting electronic key in the
recognition zone, pull the door handle.
The window automatically lowers by a few
millimetres, allowing the door to be sealed when
closed.
If the door remains open for more than
one minute, the window goes back up;
pull the handle again to reactivate the system.
In freezing temperatures, the presence of
ice may interfere with the window micro-
descent system; remove any ice that may
have formed along the seal at the base of the
window, then gently open the door.
When the selective unlocking is
activated, the first press of the remote
control unlocking button permits unlocking of
the driver's door only.
From inside

► Pull the interior opening control of a door; this
unlocks the vehicle completely .
The window automatically comes down by a few
millimetres, allowing the door to be sealed when
closed.
With selective unlocking activated:
– Opening the driver's door unlocks
the driver's door only (if the vehicle has not
already been completely unlocked).
–

Opening one of the passenger doors
unlocks the rest of the vehicle.
Closing

The window automatically goes back up after
a few seconds and adjusts to seal the window
perfectly.
Beware of the risk of trapping your
fingers when the window comes up
automatically.
– If a door is not properly closed, this
warning lamp comes on accompanied by
a message if the engine is running, and an
audible signal when the vehicle is travelling at
more than 6
mph (10 km/h).
When washing the vehicle
First lock the vehicle using the remote
control or remove the electronic key from the
recognition zone, with the doors closed.
Avoid spraying the upper part of the windows.
Keep the end of the high-pressure lance at
least 1 metre away from the door and window
seals.
Clean the door and window seals regularly
with a cloth wetted with demineralised water,
then dry with a soft cloth.
Looking after the seals
From time to time, the rubber door and
window seals must be sprayed with a silicone
type care product to prevent premature wear
and sealing problems.
This also makes the doors easier to open,
especially in winter to prevent freezing.

Additional heating/ventilation system




Heating
This is an additional and separate system which
heats the passenger compartment and improves
defrosting performance.
This indicator lamp is illuminated when the system is programmed.
This indicator lamp flashes while the heating is
in operation or when you carry out a remote start
via the remote control.
This indicator lamp goes off at the end of the
heating cycle or when the heating is stopped
using the remote control.
If the engine has not been started for
more than 3 days, the remote control
starting of the system may not work.
Recirculating the interior air isolates the
passenger compartment from outside odours
and fumes and allows the desired passenger
compartment temperature to be achieved more
rapidly.
► Press this button to activate/deactivate
the function (confirmed by the
illumination/extinction of the indicator lamp).
The function is automatically activated when the front screenwash is used or
reverse gear is engaged.
Front demisting
- defrosting
Automatic Visibility programme
This mode allows the windscreen and side
windows to be demisted or defrosted as quickly
as possible.
► Press this button to activate/deactivate
the mode (confirmed by the illumination/
extinction of the
indicator lamp).
The programme automatically manages the air
conditioning (depending on version), air flow
and air intake, and provides optimum distribution
towards the windscreen and side windows.
It is possible to manually change the air flow
without deactivating the automatic Visibility
programme.
With Stop & Start, when demisting has
been activated, STOP mode is not
available.
In wintry conditions, remove all snow or
ice on the windscreen near the camera
before moving off.
Otherwise, the operation of the equipment
associated with the camera may be affected.
Heated windscreen

In cold weather, this system heats the bottom of
the windscreen, as well as the area alongside
the left-hand windscreen pillar.
Without changing the settings for the air
conditioning system, it allows faster release
of the windscreen wiper blades when they are
frozen to the windscreen and helps to prevent
the accumulation of snow resulting from the
operation of the windscreen wipers.

► With the engine running, press this button to
activate/deactivate the function (confirmed by an
indicator lamp).
The function is activated when the exterior
temperature drops below 0°C. It is deactivated
automatically when the engine is switched off.
Rear screen demisting/
defrosting
Demisting/defrosting only operates with the
engine running.
Depending on version, this also applies to the
door mirrors.
► Press this button to activate/deactivate
the function (confirmed by the
illumination/extinction of the indicator lamp).
Demisting/defrosting switches off automatically
to prevent an excessive consumption of
electrical current.
