The vehicle may be originally equipped 
with tyres with higher load and speed 
indices than those indicated on the label, 
without affecting inflation pressure.
Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when 
cold at least monthly.
The pressures given on the label are valid for 
cold tyres. If you have driven for more than  
10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres) 
at more than 31 mph (50 km/h), the tyres will be 
warm; in this case 0.3 bar (30 kPa) should be 
added to the pressures given on the label.
Never reduce the pressure of a warm tyre.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel 
consumption.
C. Manufacturer's label.
This tamperproof label on the middle door 
pillar, right or left-hand side, contains the 
following information:
-
 
t
he name of the manufacturer,
-

 3The different functions and settings 
described vary according to the version 
and configuration of your vehicle.
As a safety measure and because it 
requires sustained attention by the 
driver, the pairing of a Bluetooth mobile 
telephone with the Bluetooth hands-free 
system of your audio system must be 
done with the vehicle stationary
 and the 
ignition on.
The system is protected in such a way that 
it will only operate in your vehicle.
The display of the message Energy 
Economy Mode  signals that a change to 
standby is imminent.
The link below gives access to OSS (Open 
Source Software) codes for the system.
