Access
The rear electric windows can still be controlled
using the driver's controls.
In the event of a serious impact, use of
the rear electric window controls is
re-enabled, if they had been deactivated.
Reinitialising the electric
windows
Following reconnection of the battery, or if
the windows move abnormally, the anti-pinch
function must be reinitialised.
The safety anti-pinch function is not active
during these operations.
For each of the windows:
► Lower the window fully, then raise it; it will
rise in steps of a few centimetres each time the
control is pressed. Repeat the operation until the
window is fully closed.
► Continue to pull the switch for at least
one second after reaching the window closed
position.
If an electric window meets an obstacle
during operation, the movement of the
window must be reversed. To do this, press
the switch concerned.
When the driver operates the passengers’
electric window switches, it is important to
ensure that nothing can prevent the window
from closing properly.
It is important to ensure that the passengers
use the electric windows correctly.
If the failure originates from the battery, it is
recommended to recharge it or change it with the
tailgate closed.
In this situation, a significant force may be
needed to close the tailgate.
►

Close it gently without slamming, as slowly as
possible, by pushing at the centre of the tailgate.
Do not lower the tailgate by pushing at
one of its sides - risk of damage!

Driving
For Diesel engines, when the temperature is
below zero and/or the engine is cold, starting will
only occur once the preheating warning lamp is
off.
If this warning lamp comes on after
pressing the "START/STOP" button:
►

Keep the pedal fully depressed and do not
press the "

START/STOP" button again until the
engine is running.
If one of the starting conditions is not met, a
message is displayed.
In some circumstances, a message indicates
that it is necessary to turn the steering wheel
while pressing the " START/STOP" button to
assist unlocking of the steering column.
With petrol engines , after a cold start,
preheating the catalytic converter can
cause noticeable engine vibrations for
anything up to 2 minutes while stationary with
the engine running (accelerated idle speed).
If the engine stalls, release the clutch
pedal and fully depress it again, the
engine will restart automatically.
Starting hybrid vehicles
► Fully depress the brake pedal and press
briefly on the START/STOP button.
► Keep you foot on the pedal until this
indicator lamp comes on, indicating the
activation of the hybrid system (confirmed by an
audible signal).
By default, the system starts in ELECTRIC
mode.
Depending on certain parameters (battery
charge level or exterior temperature), the system
determines whether it is necessary to start the
petrol engine.
It is possible to change the driving mode at any
time using the mode selector.
When the vehicle starts in electric mode,
it makes no noise.
Pay particular attention to pedestrians and
cyclists who may not hear the vehicle coming
despite the pedestrian horn.
Switching off
► Immobilise the vehicle, with the engine at
idle.
►

With a
manual gearbox, ideally put the gear
lever into neutral.
►

With an
automatic gearbox, ideally select
mode
P or N.
►

Press the "
START/STOP" button..
►

For hybrid vehicles, before leaving the
vehicle, check that the

READY warning lamp is
switched off.
In some circumstances, it is necessary to turn
the steering wheel to lock the steering column.
On certain versions with an automatic gearbox
(EAT6 / EAT8), the steering column does not
lock, but the gearbox locks in mode P.
If the vehicle is not immobilised, the
engine will not switch off.
With the engine off, the braking and
steering assistance systems are also cut
off - risk of loss of control of the vehicle!
Never leave your vehicle with the
electronic key still inside.
Switching on the ignition
without starting the engine


With the electronic key in the passenger
compartment, pressing the “ START/STOP”
button, without pressing any of the pedals ,
allows the ignition to be switched on without
starting the engine.

Press this button
again to switch off the
ignition and allow the vehicle to be locked.

Back-up starting
A back-up reader is fitted to the steering column,
to enable the engine to be started if the system
fails to detect the key in the recognition zone, or
if the battery in the electronic key is discharged.


► Place and hold the remote control against the
reader.
► With a manual gearbox, place the gear lever
in neutral, then fully depress the clutch pedal.
► With an automatic gearbox, select mode P,
then fully depress the brake pedal.
