Malfunction of the SCR emissions control
system
Malfunction detection


If a malfunction is detected,
these warning lamps come on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of an
"Emissions control fault"
message.
The alert is triggered while driving when the fault
is detected for the first time, and thereafter when
switching on the ignition for subsequent journeys,
for as long as the cause of the fault persists.
If the fault is temporary, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after
self-diagnostic checks of the SCR emissions
control system.
Malfunction confirmed during the permitted
driving phase (between 685 miles and 0 miles
(1,100 km and 0 km))
If the fault indication is still displayed
permanently after 31 miles (50 km) of driving, the
fault in the SCR system is confirmed.
The AdBlue warning lamp flashes and a message
is displayed ("Emissions control fault: starting
prevented in X miles (kms)"), indicating the
driving range in miles or kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every 30
seconds. The alert is repeated when switching on
the ignition.
You can continue driving for up to 685 miles
(1,100 km) before the engine starting prevention
system is triggered.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Starting prevented
Every time the ignition is switched on, the
message "Emissions control fault: Starting
prevented" is displayed.
To restart the engine
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.
Power indicator (Rechargeable
hybrid)
The power indicator shows in real time the power
demanded from the vehicle.
There are 3 zones:

21
Dashboard instruments01
POWER High power demand, using the
combined capabilities of the petrol
engine and the electric motor(s)
(depending on version).
The slider is located in this zone during
more dynamic driving phases when
high levels of performance are being
demanded.
ECO Optimal use of energy (internal combustion or electric).
The slider is located in this zone when
driving under electric power and when
optimal use is being made of the petrol
engine, both accessible by adopting a
suitable driving style.
A symbol indicates the threshold at
which the petrol engine will restart.
The driver can therefore moderate
their acceleration to remain in electric
driving mode.
CHARGE Energy recovery for partly recharging the traction battery.
The slider is located in this zone during
deceleration: taking your foot off the
accelerator pedal or braking.Charge level indicator
(Rechargeable hybrid)


The charge level of the traction battery and
the remaining range in electric driving mode
are permanently displayed when the vehicle is
switched on.

12 V battery
The Stop & Start system requires a
12 V battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work must be carried out only by a dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Tyre under-inflation
detection
This system alerts the driver if one or more tyres
suffer a drop in pressure.
The alert is raised when the vehicle is moving, not
when stationary.
It compares the information given by the wheel
speed sensors with reference values, which must
be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are
adjusted or a wheel changed.
It takes into account the last values stored
during the reinitialisation request. It is therefore
essential that the tyre pressure is correct during
the operation. This operation is the driver’s
responsibility.

is switched off.
Operating principle

Using the camera, the vehicle's close
surroundings are recorded during low speed
manoeuvres.
An image from above the vehicle in its close
surroundings is created in real time (on the side of
the screen), as the vehicle progresses.
This view makes it easier to align the vehicle
when parking and to perceive nearby obstacles. It is automatically deleted if the vehicle remains
stationary for too long.
