Electric windows
1. Left-hand electric window control.
2. Right-hand electric window control.
Operation
► To open/close the window manually, press/
pull the switch without passing the point of
resistance; the window stops as soon as the
switch is released.
►

T
o open/close the window automatically,
press/pull the switch fully, beyond the point of
resistance; the window opens/closes completely
when the switch is released (pressing the switch
again stops the movement of the window).
The electric window controls remain operational for about 45 seconds after
the ignition is switched off if the front doors
are not open.
After that time, the controls are disabled. To
reactivate them, switch the ignition on again.
Safety anti-pinch
If your vehicle is fitted with the safety anti-pinch
function, when the window rises and meets an
obstacle, it stops and partially lowers.
In the event of unwanted opening of the window
on closing, press the control until the window
opens completely. Within 4 seconds, pull the
control until the window closes.
The safety anti-pinch does not operate while
doing this.
Reinitialising the electric
windows
After reconnecting the battery, or in the event
of abnormal window movement, the anti-pinch
function must be reinitialised.
The anti-pinch function is disabled during the
following sequence of operations.
For each window:
►

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 control for at least one
second after the window reaches the closed
position.
If an electric window meets an obstacle
during operation, the movement of the
window must be reversed. To do this, press
the relevant switch.
When the driver operates the passenger
electric window switch, it is important to
ensure that nothing can prevent the window
from closing properly.
Pay particular attention to children when
operating windows.

3Correct driving position
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and
controls, carry out these adjustments in the
following order:
–
the height of the head restraint,
–


the seat backrest angle,
–


the seat cushion height,
–


the longitudinal position of the seat,
–


the height and reach of the steering wheel,
–


the rear view mirror and door mirrors.

Once these adjustments have been
made, check the instrument panel can be
viewed correctly from your driving position.
Manually-adjusted front
seats
For more information on the Seat belts,
refer to the corresponding section.
Forwards-backwards

► Raise the control bar and slide the seat
forwards or backwards.
►

Release the bar to lock the seat in position on
one of the notches.
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is nothing that might
prevent the full travel of the seat.
There is a risk of trapping or pinching
passengers if present in the rear seats or
jamming the seat if large objects are placed
on the floor behind the seat.
Height

► Pull the control upwards to raise the seat or
push it downwards to lower the seat, until the
position required is obtained.
Backrest angle

► Depending on equipment, turn the knob
or pull the control all the way up and tilt the
backrest forwards or backwards to adjust it.

Head restraint height
adjustment


If fitted to your vehicle.
► To raise it, pull it upwards as far as possible
(notch).
► To remove it, press the lug A and pull it
upwards.
► To put it back in place, engage the head
restraint rods in the openings keeping them in
line with the seat backrest.
► To lower it, press the lug A and push down on
the head restraint at the same time.
The head restraint has a frame with notches which prevents it from lowering;
this is a safety device in case of impact.
The adjustment is correct when the upper
edge of the head restraint is level with the
top of the head.
On the driver's side, this position allows rear
passengers to be helped out of the vehicle (by
the emergency services).
Check that there is no object that could
interfere with the movement of a seat,
both above and below.
►

Place the head restraint in the low position,
and if fitted to your vehicle, raise the armrest and
fold the table fitted to the back of the seat.
We recommend deactivating the front
passenger airbag.


► Pull the control fully up and tip the backrest
forward.
T
o return to the normal position, pull the control
up to release the backrest, then pull the backrest
up to its raised position.

(off) to 3 (high).
Prolonged use of heated seats is not
recommended for people with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking
medication, etc.).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:
–

Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the
seat.
–


Do not kneel or stand on the seat.
–


Do not spill liquids onto the seat.
–


Never use the heating function if the seat
is damp.
Do not use the function when the seat
is not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electrical
consumption in turn decreases energy
consumption.
