ally in the event of a serious side impact
applied to all or part of the side impact
zone B
, perpendicular to the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal
plane and directed from the outside to-
wards the inside of the vehicle.
The lateral airbag infl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
corresponding door trim panel.

System which protects the driver and
passengers (with the exception of the

and the upper section of the passenger
compartment.
Deployment
The curtain airbag is deployed at the
same time as the corresponding lateral
airbag in the event of a serious side im-
pact applied to all or part of the side impact
zone B
, perpendicular to the longitudinal
centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal
plane and directed from the outside to-
wards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag infl ates between the
front or rear occupant of the vehicle and

DCS GEARBOX
The six-speed electronically controlled
gearbox offers a choice between the
comfort of automatic regulation or the
pleasure of manual gear changing.
This gearbox has three driving modes:


- a manual
mode for changing of the
gears by the driver using the steering
mounted controls or the gear lever,

- a " Normal
" automatic mode for eco-
nomical control of the gears (every-
day use),

- a " Sport
" automatic mode which
permits a more dynamic style of
driving, with improved acceleration
and optimised engine braking.
When you move the lever in the gate
to select a position, the corresponding
indicator or message is displayed in the
instrument panel.

FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM
WITH ELECTRONIC CONTROL

4WD AUTO (position 1)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive and provides optimum traction re-
gardless of the level of grip.
This is the vehicle's normal and regular
operating mode, the distribution of the
torque between the front and rear axles
is controlled automatically.
The distribution favours the front wheels,
the transfer of torque to the rear wheels
is managed electronically by the control
unit in relation to the level of grip, so
providing optimum road holding.
Three transmission modes are available
and can be selected manually by the driv-
er in accordance with his requirements.
You can change transmission mode
when stationary or while driving at a
speed below 60 mph (100 km/h)
.
The transmission mode can be selected
by turning the control A
.
Display in the instrument panel

The transmission mode is displayed
in the form of an intermittent display in
the instrument panel screen when the
transmission mode is selected.

Selecting the transmissionmode

The selection of this mode is recom-
mended when the level of grip permits.

2WD (position 3)
The vehicle operates with front two
wheel drive.
This mode corresponds to use on a tar-
macked road on which the driver considers
that there is no risk of loss of grip (dry road).

4WD LOCK (position 2)
The vehicle operates with four wheel
drive in this mode also.
It is recommended when grip is particularly
poor or diffi cult (sand, mud, slopes, ...). System which permits the selection of
a transmission mode in relation to the
driving conditions.

need to comply with speed limits or
of the vigilance and responsibility of
the driver.
System which automatically maintains the
vehicle speed at the value programmed
by the driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
The cruise control is switched on
man-
ually: the vehicle speed must be 25 mph
(40 km/h) minimum and second gear
must be engaged in the case of a man-
ual gearbox.
The cruise control is switched off
man-
ually, by an action on the brake or clutch
pedal or if the ASC system is triggered.
The programmed speed can be ex-
ceeded temporarily by pressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
To return to the programmed speed,
simply release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed value.
