Manual child lock
This system prevents opening of a rear door using
its interior handle.
The control, red in colour, is located on the edge of
each rear door (marked by a label).
Locking / Unlocking

►  To lock, turn the red control as far as it will go
using the integral key: •

T
o the right on the left-hand rear door.
• To the left on the right-hand rear door.
►  To unlock, turn it in the opposite direction.


Do not confuse the child lock control,
which is red, with the back-up locking
control, which is black.
Electric child lock
This remote control system prevents the use of
rear electric windows and, depending on version,
the opening of the rear doors using their interior
handles.


Activation/Deactivation
►  With the ignition on, press this button
to activate/deactivate the child lock.
When the indicator lamp is on, the child lock is
activated.
With the child lock activated, it is still
possible to operate the rear electric
windows from the driver's controls.
This system is independent and in no
circumstances does it take the place of
the central locking control.
Check the status of the child lock each time
you switch on the ignition.
Always keep the electronic key with you when
leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.
In the event of a serious impact, the electric
child lock is switched off automatically to
permit the exit of the rear passengers.

reading and have an adverse effect on road
holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Shock absorbers
It is not easy for drivers to detect when
shock absorbers are worn. Nevertheless,
the shock absorbers have a major impact on
road-holding and braking performance.
For your safety and driving comfort, it is important
to have them regularly checked by a dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Timing and accessory kits
Timing and accessory kits are used from
the time the engine is started until it is
switched off. It is normal for them to wear over
time.
A faulty timing or accessory kit can damage
the engine, rendering it unusable. Observe the
recommended replacement frequency, stated in
distance travelled or time elapsed, whichever is
reached first.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the performance or fuel
consumption of Diesel engines, the Manufacturer
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with a
system that associates SCR (Selective Catalytic
Reduction) with a Diesel particle filter (DPF) for
the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR System
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue® is contained in a special tank
holding about 15 litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of
approximately 5,600 miles (9,000 km), which may
vary considerably depending on your driving style.
An alert system is triggered once the reserve level
is reached: it is then possible to drive for a further
1,500 miles (2,400 km) before the tank is empty
and the vehicle blocked.
For more information on the Warning and
indicator lamps and the associated alerts,
or the Indicators, please refer to the
corresponding sections.
Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a system
required by legislation prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR system is faulty, the level of
emissions from the vehicle will no longer meet
the Euro 6 standard: the vehicle becomes
polluting.
In the event of a confirmed SCR system
malfunction, it is essential to visit a dealer or a
qualified workshop. After 680 miles (1,100 km),
a device is automatically activated to prevent
the engine from starting.
In both cases, a range indicator indicates
the distance that can be travelled before the
vehicle is stopped.
Freezing of the AdBlue®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue driving
in very cold conditions.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® be topped up
as soon as the first alert is issued indicating that
the reserve level has been reached.
For the correct operation of the SCR
system:
–

U

se only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the ISO
22241 standard.
–

Ne

ver transfer AdBlue
® to another container
as it would lose its purity.
–

Ne

ver dilute AdBlue
® with water.
It is possible to obtain AdBlue
® from a dealer or a
qualified workshop as well as at service stations
equipped with AdBlue
® pumps specially designed
for passenger vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates
above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a
cool area and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for
at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has
completely thawed out at room temperature.
Never store AdBlue
® containers in your
vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This fluid is non-
flammable, colourless and odourless (when kept
in a cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and running water. In the
event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse
the eyes with large amounts of water or with an
eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek
medical attention if you feel a persistent burning
sensation or irritation.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high temperature, for
example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot
be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia
vapours have an irritant effect on mucous
membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Store AdBlue
® out of the reach of children,
in its original container.

Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that
the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature
of the vehicle is above -11 °C. Otherwise, the
AdBlue
® may be frozen and therefore cannot be
poured into its tank. Park your vehicle in a warmer
area for a few hours to allow the top-up to be
carried out.
Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
If any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the bodywork, rinse
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a
sponge and hot water.
Important: in the event of a top-up after an
AdBlue breakdown, you must wait about
5 minutes before switching on the ignition,
without opening the driver's door, unlocking
the vehicle or bringing the electronic key into
the passenger compartment.
Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10
seconds before starting the engine.
►  Press the "START/STOP" button to switch off
the engine.


►  Turn the blue cap of the AdBlue® tank a 6th of a
turn anti-clockwise and remove it.
►  With a container of AdBlue
®: after checking
the expiry date, read carefully the instructions
on the label before pouring the contents of the
container into the vehicle's AdBlue tank.
►  With an AdBlue
® pump: introduce the nozzle
and fill the tank until the automatic cut-off of the
nozzle.
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:
–
Add betw
een 10 and 13 litres using
AdBlue
® containers.
–
St
op after the nozzle’s first automatic cut-
out, if you are refilling at a service station.
If the AdBlue® tank is completely empty
– which is confirmed by the “Top
up AdBlue: Starting impossible” message – it is
essential to add at least 5 litres.
