Replacing the battery
The remote control is powered by a 6V-28L battery cell, which is included.
Information appears on the screen when this battery should be replaced.
Unclip the casing and replace the battery.
The remote control must then be re-initialised, as described on this page.
Do not discard old batteries; take them to an approved recycling point.
Re-initialisation of the remote control
Always switch off the program-mable heating while refuelling in order to avoid the risk of fi re or explosion.
To avoid the risk of intoxication or asphyxiation, the program-mable heating should not be used, even for a short time, in an enclosed space such as a garage, or workshop without exhaust gas extraction.
Do not park the vehicle over infl ammable materials (dry grass, dead leaves, papers…), as there is a risk of fi re.
The programmable heating sys-tem is supplied by the vehicle’s fuel tank. Before using it, ensure that there is suffi cient fuel in the tank. If the low fuel warning lamp is on we strongly recommend that you do not programme the heating to come on.
P R O G R A M M A B L E H E A T I N G
If the battery is disconnected or replaced, the remote control must be re-initialised.
After switching on, within fi ve sec-onds press button 4 (OFF) for 1 second.
If the operation is successful, the "OK" message appears in the remote control screen.
If not, the "FAIL" message appears. Repeat the procedure.
As a secondary advantage, use of your programmable heating sys-tem allows it to be used to pre-heat the passenger compartment

If you should put in fuel that is not suitable for your vehicle's engine type, it is imperative to have the tank drained be fore you start the engine again.
While you are refuelling, the engine must be stopped and the ignition switched off.
For a petrol engine with a cata-lytic converter, unleaded fuel is compulsory.
The fi ller neck is narrower to ensure that only unleaded petrol can be put in.
When you are seeking to fi ll your tank, do not persist after the third cut-off; that could cause your vehicle to malfunction.
To open the fl ap, press button A. Undo the cap and attach it to the tab on the inside of the fl ap.Note: The fuel fl ap is locked when you lock your vehicle with the remote control.
FUEL QUALITY
A label inside the fi ller fl ap tells you which type of fuel to use.
The petrol engines are designed to run on RON 95.
However, for better perform-ance (petrol engine), we recom-mend RON 98
