Automatic lighting
systems - General
recommendations
The automatic lighting systems use a detection
camera, located at the top of the windscreen.
Operating limits
The system may be disrupted or not work
correctly:
–
When visibility c
onditions are poor
(e.g. snowfall, heavy rain).
–
If the windscreen is dirty
, misted-up or
masked (e.g. sticker) in front of the camera.
–
If the v
ehicle is facing highly reflective signs
or safety barrier reflectors.
The system is not able to detect:
– R oad users that do not have their own
lighting, such as pedestrians.
–
V
ehicles with hidden lighting (e.g. travelling
behind a safety barrier on the motorway).
–
V
ehicles at the top or bottom of a steep
slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
Maintenance
Clean the windscreen regularly,
particularly the area in front of the camera.
The internal surface of the windscreen can
also become misted around the camera.
In humid and cold weather, demist the
windscreen regularly.
Do not allow snow to accumulate on the
bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could
obstruct the camera.
Automatic headlamp

Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction,
dashes are displayed instead of
the speed setting.
This warning lamp comes on, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal, to
confirm the malfunction.
Have it checked by a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Lane positioning assist
For more information, refer to the General
recommendations on the use of driving
and manoeuvring aids.
The system identifies the edges of the traffic lane
and steers the vehicle to keep it inside this lane
and maintain the lateral position chosen by the
driver.
To do this, the system uses a camera placed on
the upper part of the windscreen.
This system is particularly suited to driving on
motorways and main roads.

Practical information07
As soon as you release the handle, it is engaged
automatically in its storage case.
Usage position
Towball unlocked:
► Grasp the towball and rotate it while raising it
until it locks into place, in the vertical position.
The towball must be folded away when
using a high-pressure washer.
Do not direct the jet from less than 30 cm from
the towing system.
► Raise the electrical socket cover and connect
the plug for the trailer or carrying device.
► Attach the trailer’s safety cable to the ring in
the towball elbow.
Storage position
When the towing system is not in use, it is
recommended to fold the towball away.
In the event of a rear-end collision, damage to
the vehicle could be worse with the towball in
place.
Towball unlocked and socket disconnected:
► Grasp the towball and rotate it until it locks
into place, in the horizontal position.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop for any
work on the towing system.
Roof bars
As a safety measure and to avoid
damaging the roof, it is essential to use
transverse roof bars approved for your vehicle.
Observe the instructions on fitting and use
contained in the guide supplied with the roof
bars.
Maximum load distributed over the
transverse roof bars, for a loading height
not exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle carrier):
80 kg.
As this value may change, please verify the
maximum load quoted in the guide supplied
with the roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed
of the vehicle to the profile of the road to avoid
damaging the roof bars and the fixings on the
vehicle.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in order
to comply with the regulations for transporting
objects that are longer than the vehicle.

Practical information07
Do not switch off the engine until the filter
is fully regenerated; repeated intervals
can degrade the engine oil prematurely.
Regenerating the filter while the vehicle is
stationary is not recommended.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you
may, in exceptional circumstances, notice
water vapour coming from the exhaust while
accelerating. These emissions have no impact
on the vehicle’s behaviour and the
environment.
New vehicle
During the first few particle filter
regeneration operations, you may notice a
"burning" smell. This is perfectly normal.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine
servicing. However, in the event of a
problem, do not hesitate to have the system
checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the Electric
parking brake, refer to the corresponding
section.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style of driving,
particularly in the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the
brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are
worn.
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in
wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may
be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and
defrost them.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc
wear, contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres,
including the spare wheel, must be
checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10
kilometres) at over 31 mph (50 km/h), add 0.3 bar
(30 kPa) to the values indicated on the label.
Under-inflation increases energy
consumption. Non-compliant tyre
pressures cause tyres to wear prematurely and
have an adverse effect on the vehicle's road
holding - risk of accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the
braking and road holding performance of the
vehicle. Regularly check the condition of the tyres
(tread and sidewalls) and rims as well as the
presence of the valve caps.
When the wear indicators no longer appear set
back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is
less than 1.6 mm; replace the tyres as soon as
possible.
Using different size wheels and tyres from those
specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel
rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer
reading and have an adverse effect on road
holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Always mark the direction of rotation on the tyres
that will be stored when fitting winter or summer
tyres. Store them in a cool, dry place and away
from direct exposure to the sun's rays.
Winter or 4-seasons tyres can be identified
by this symbol on their sidewalls.
Shock absorbers
It is not easy for drivers to detect when
shock absorbers are worn. Nevertheless,

power supply for long enough to repair a tyre
after a puncture.
Tyre inflation pressures are indicated on
this label.
For more information on Identification
markings, particularly this label, refer to the
corresponding section.
For more information on the Tool kit, refer
to the corresponding section.
Repair procedure
Do not remove any foreign body (e.g. nail,
screw) which has penetrated the tyre.
► Park the vehicle without obstructing traffic
and apply the parking brake.
► Follow the safety instructions (hazard warning
lamps, warning triangle, high visibility jacket,
etc.) according to the legislation in force in the
country in which you are driving.
► Switch the ignition off.
► Remove the transparent cap from the bottle
of sealant.
► Lift the protective cover before installing the
bottle of sealant on the compressor.
► Turn the bottle of sealant over and screw it a
quarter turn into the compressor.
► Remove the valve cap from the tyre to be
repaired, and place it in a clean place.
► Uncoil the pipe stowed under the compressor.
► Connect the pipe from the compressor to the
valve of the tyre to be repaired and tighten firmly.
► Check that the compressor switch is in
position "O".
► Fully uncoil the electric cable stowed under
the compressor.
► Connect the compressor's electric plug to the
vehicle's 12 V socket.
► Affix the speed limit sticker.
The speed limit sticker must be affixed
inside the vehicle in the area close to the
driver, to remind them that a wheel is in
temporary use.
► Switch the ignition on.
► Switch on the compressor by moving the
switch to position "I" until the tyre pressure
reaches 2 bar. The sealant product is injected
under pressure into the tyre; do not disconnect
the pipe from the valve during this operation (risk
of blowback).
If after approximately 7 minutes, the
pressure of 2 bar is not reached, this
indicates that the tyre is not repairable;
contact a dealer or a qualified workshop for
assistance.

174In the event of a breakdown08
► Move the switch to position "O".
► Disconnect the compressor's electric plug
from the vehicle's 12 V socket.
► Remove the kit.
► Refit the cap on the valve.
► Remove and store the bottle of sealant.
The sealant product is harmful if
swallowed and causes irritation to the
eyes.
Keep this product out of the reach of children.
The use-by date of the fluid is marked on the
bottle.
After use, do not discard the bottle into
the environment; take it to a dealer or an
authorised waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle of
sealant, available from a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
► Drive immediately for approximately 3 miles
(5 kilometres) at reduced speed (between 12 and
37 mph (20 and 60 km/h)) to plug the puncture.
► Stop to check the repair and the tyre pressure
using the kit:
• If the tyre pre ssure is incorrect, contact a
dealer to have the tyre changed.
•
If the tyre pre
ssure is correct, drive a second
time for approximately 3 miles (5 kilometres)
at reduced speed (between 12 and 37 mph (20
and 60 km/h)), stop then check again the tyre
pressure using the kit to confirm the effective
repair of the tyre.
With a tyre repaired using this type of kit,
do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h) and do not drive more than
125 miles (200 km).
You must contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the repair checked and the
tyre changed.
Checking/adjusting tyre
pressures
The compressor can be used, without injecting
sealant, to check and, if necessary, adjust the
tyre pressures.
► Remove the valve cap from the tyre and keep it
in a clean place.
► Uncoil the pipe stowed under the compressor.
► Screw the pipe onto the valve and tighten
firmly.
► Check that the compressor switch is in
position "O".
► Fully uncoil the electric cable stowed under
the compressor.
► Connect the compressor's electric plug to the
vehicle's 12 V socket.
► Switch the ignition on.
► Start the compressor by placing the switch
at position "I" and adjust the pressure to the
value shown on the vehicle's tyre pressure label.
To deflate: press the black button located on the
compressor pipe, near the valve connection.
If after 7 minutes the pressure of 2 bar is
not reached, the tyre is damaged; contact
a dealer or a qualified workshop for
assistance.
► Once the correct pressure is reached, put the
switch in position "O".
► Remove the kit and stow it.
► Refit the cap on the valve.
Should the pressure of one or more tyres
be adjusted, it is necessary to reinitialise
the under-inflation detection system.
For more information on Tyre under-inflation
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
