NEVER REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY BEFORE THE ENGINE HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.
IT IS ESSENTIAL ALWAYS TO DRIVE WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING, SO AS TO RETAIN STEERING AND BRAKING ASSISTANCE (risk of the steering lock engaging and loss of safety features).
When stationary, having removed the key, carefully turn the steering wheel if you wish to lock the steering.
S : Steering lock
To unlock the steering, gently move the steering wheel while turning the key, without exerting undue force.
When you remove the key, turn your steering wheel to lock the steering. The key can only be removed when in position S.
M : Drive position
The steering is unlocked (by turn-ing the key in position M, if neces-sary move the steering wheel).
D : Starting
Release the key as soon as the engine starts. Never turn it while the engine is running.
Economy mode
When the engine is stopped, some functions (radio, screen wipe , electric windows, sunroof, electric seats, telephone, video etc) are only electrically supplied for about 30 minutes, to avoid discharging the battery.
Once the 30 minutes are over, a message appears on the instrumen t panel screen and the active functions are put on standby.
The electrical components relating to comfort and also the headlamps (not sidelamps or hazard warning lamps) cut out automatically. To react ivate them, it is necessary to start the engine.

Anti-pinch
An anti-pinch device stops the window from rising. If it meets an obstacle, it goes back down.
If there is a malfunction, sequen-tial operation is deactivated. When raise the window again, press the control each time the window stops until you reach the desired posi-tion. You must then re-initialise the function for each electric window:Lower the window fully using the control, then close. It will rise only a few centimetres. Press repeatedly on the control until the window is fully closed.
Keep the control pressed down for at least 1 second having closed the window.

You are advised to use the automatic air conditioning regulation. This automatically regulates the following functions for maximum comfort : air fl ow, passenger compartment temperature, and air distribution, using different sensors (external temperature, sunlight). This avoids the need to alter any of the settings, with the exception of the temperature displayed.
Take care not to obstruct the sunlight sensor A.
Provided you retain automatic mode (by pressing button “AUTO”) and all the air vents are open, you will main-tain an optimum comfort level, also removing humidity and misting, whatever the ambient climatic conditions.
The temperature inside the cabin cannot be lower than the temperature outside if the air conditioning is not operating.
To be effective, the air conditioning should only be used with the windows closed. If after a lengthy stop in bright sunlight the interior temperature is excessive, air the passenger compartment by opening the windows for a few moments, then close them again.
To ensure the correct operation of the air conditioning system, it is essential to operate the air conditioning at least once a month.
The air conditioning operates by using power from the engine. This results in a slight increase in fuel con-sumption.
In certain extreme operating conditions (e.g. carrying a full load up a steep gradient in high temperatures), the switching off of the air conditioning allows more power to be transferred to the engine, thereby increasing the towing capacity.
Air inlet
Check that the exterior grille for the air inlet, at the bot-tom of the windscreen, is clean and free of dead leaves, snow, etc.
If washing the vehicle with a high pressure jet, avoid targeting the air inlet zone.
Air circulation
For your comfort we advise you to maintain a proper distribution of air within the cabin, both at the front and at the rear.
To obtain an even distribution of air, ensure that you do obstruct the external air inlet grille located at the base of the windscreen, the air vents, the air outlets on the fl oor underneath the front seats, and the air extractor located behind the fl aps in the boot.
The front and rear air vents are fi tted with control knobs which allow you to control and direct the air fl ow. It is recommended to keep all the air vents open.
Dust/pollen fi lter
There is a fi lter for excluding pollen and dust.
This fi lter has to be changed according to the vehicle maintenance schedule. See “Maintenance Guide”.

Switching off the entry of air
Press button 6 to switch off the entry of air from outside.
Whilst retaining the other settings, this posi-tion allows the driver at any moment to exclude unpleasant smells or smoke/emissions coming from outside.
This mode should be cancelled as soon as possible to allow the redistribution of air in the passenger compartment.
Entry of air from outside
Press once on button 6 to return to the origi-nal status (Entry of air from outside).
7. Rear demisting - deicing
Press button 7, with the engine running, to start a rapid deicing or demisting of the rear screen and rear view mirrors. The warning lamp comes on.
This mode automatically stops depending on the out-side temperature. It can be interrupted by a further press on button 7 or by stopping the engine.
In the latter case, demisting will resume when the engine is switched on again.Note: The heated rear screen operates independently of the automatic air conditioning.
8. Front demisting - deicing
In some cases, “AUTO” mode may not be suffi cient to demist or defrost the windows (e.g. humidity, several passengers, frost).
Press button 8 for rapid clear windows. The warning lamp comes on. This system controls air conditioning, temperature and air fl ow/entry. It distributes ventilation towards the windscreen and the front windows.
You can manually exit “Demisting” mode. This mode should be cancelled as soon as possible to allow the redistribution of air in the passenger compartment.
A press on either of the buttons 1a or 1b allows you to return to “AUTO” mode.
Remarks:When starting from cold, in order to prevent unwanted cold air, the air fl ow will increase only gradually to its optimum level.If you enter the vehicle after a fairly prolonged stop and the temperature inside the vehicle is far from comf ort-able, it serves no purpose to modify the temperatur e that is displayed as an attempt to go immediately t o the desired comfort level. The system automatically uses all of its power to compensate the temperature gap as quickly as possible.
Water arising from the condensation in the air con-ditioning drains out through a hole provided for this purpose ; a pool of water may thus form underneath the vehicle when stationary.
Whatever the time of year, even in cool weather the air conditioning is useful in removing humidity and misting. Avoid driving for too long with air condition-ing deactivated.
