Under-inflation detection
This system monitors the pressures in the tyres
and alerts you in the event of an under-inflated
tyre. At low speed, this additional lighting increases
the driver's field of vision in corners,
junctions, when parking... by switching on the
corresponding front foglamp.This system puts the engine temporarily into
standby during stops in the traffic (traffic
lights, traffic jams, etc...). The engine restarts
automatically as soon as you want to move
off. The Stop & Start system reduces fuel
consumption and exhaust emissions, as well as
noise levels when stationary.
The number plate lamps, sidelamps and dipped
beam headlamps come on automatically
without any action by the driver when a low
level of ambient light is detected.

be determined whether the situation is
normal or a fault has occurred. In the
event of a fault, the illumination of the
warning lamp may be accompanied by
a message.
