Exceeding programmed
speed
F Press firmly on the accelerator pedal,
going beyond the point of resistance, to
exceed the programmed speed limit.
The speed limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the programmed speed, which is still
displayed, flashes.
Return to the programmed speed, by means of
intentional or unintentional deceleration of the
vehicle, automatically cancels the flashing of
the speed.
Exiting speed limiter mode
F Turn thumb wheel 1 to the 0 position: the
speed limiter mode is deselected. The
display returns to the total mileage recorder.
Malfunction
In the event of a speed limiter fault, the speed
i s cleared resulting in flashing of the dashes. On sharp acceleration, as when
descending a
steep hill, the speed limiter
will not be able to prevent the vehicle from
exceeding the programmed speed.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:
-
e
nsure that mats are secured correctly,
-
n
ever place one mat on top of another.
Have it checked in the dealer network or by
a
qualified workshop.
Cruise control
System which automatically
maintains the speed of the vehicle
at the value programmed by the
driver, without any action on the
accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is switched off
manually or
by pressing the brake or clutch pedal or on
triggering of the trajectory control systems for
safety reasons.
It is possible to exceed the programmed speed
temporarily by depressing the accelerator
pedal.
To return to the programmed speed, simply
release the accelerator pedal.
Switching off the ignition cancels any
programmed speed setting.
Cruise control cannot, in any circumstances, replace
the need to respect speed limits, nor can it replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Steering mounted controls
The cruise control is switched on manually: it
requires a minimum vehicle speed of 25 mph
(40
km/h).
As well as the engagement:
-

f fourth gear on a manual gearbox.
-

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.The snow chains must be fitted only to the
front wheels. They must never be fitted to
"space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in
your country on the use of snow chains
and the maximum authorised speed.
Installation tips
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey,
stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side
of the road.
F
A
pply the parking brake and if necessary
put wheel chocks against the wheels to
prevent your vehicle from sliding.
F
F
it the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F
M
ove off gently and drive for a few seconds,
without exceeding 30
mph (50 km/h).
F
S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened. It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a
level and dry sur face.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fixings is in contact with the
wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
PERFORMANCE tyres
Use in winter conditions
Original 205/40 R18 tyres are not suitable for
u se in severe winter weather. We recommend
that you use appropriate winter tyres during
very cold periods.
If you want to fit snow chains or non-slip
covers to your vehicle, contact the dealer
network to find out about the models that
are recommended for your vehicle.

To w b a r
Your vehicle is primarily designed for
transporting people and luggage, but it may
also be used for towing a trailer.
We recommend the use of genuine
manufacturer towbars and their harnesses
that have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
the fitting of the towbar is entrusted to the
dealer network or a
qualified workshop.
If the towbar is not fitted in the dealer
network, it must still be fitted in accordance
with the vehicle manufacturer's instructions. Driving with a
trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and the
driver must take particular care.
For more information on Driving advice ,
particularly when towing, refer to the
corresponding section.
Observe the maximum authorised towable
weight, indicated on your vehicle's
registration certificate, the manufacturer's
label as well as in the Technical data
section of this guide.
Complying with the maximum
authorised nose weight (ball joint) also
includes the use of accessories (bicycle
carriers, towbar cargo carriers, etc.).
The maximum authorised nose weight
does not depend on the type of device
installed, fixed or removable, with or
without a
tool.
Obser ve the legislation in force in the
country in which you are driving.
PERFORMANCE towbar
Your vehicle cannot be fitted with a towbar. The
s ize of the sport diffuser does not allow it.
Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as air conditioning,
heated rear screen, etc.
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.

Energy economy mode
System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conser ve a sufficient level
of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still
use functions such as the audio equipment,
windscreen wipers, dipped beam headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a
maximum combined
period of thirty minutes.
This period may be greatly reduced if the
battery is not fully charged.
Switching to this mode
Once this period has elapsed, a message
appears in the screen indicating that the
vehicle has switched to economy mode and the
active functions are put on standby.
Exiting the mode
These functions are reactivated automatically
next time the vehicle is driven.
F
T
o restore these functions immediately, start
the engine and let it run briefly. If the telephone is being used at the same
time, it will be interrupted after 10
minutes.The engine will not start if the battery is
discharged.
The time available to you will then be double
the period for which the engine is left running.
However, this period will always be between
five and thirty minutes.
Changing front or rear
wiper blades
Procedure for replacing a used window wiper
w ith a new one without tools.
Before removing a front wiper
F Within one minute after switching off the ignition, operate the wiper stalk to
position the wiper blades vertically on the
windscreen.
This position is used to avoid damage to the
wiper and the bonnet.
Removing
F Lift the corresponding wiper arm.
F U nclip and remove the wiper blade.
Refitting
F At the front, check the size of the wiper, because the shortest wiper is fitted to the
passenger side of the vehicle.
F
P
osition and clip the new wiper blade to the
arm.
F
C
arefully lower the wiper arm.
After refitting a front wiper
F Switch on the ignition.
F O perate the wiper stalk again to park the
wiper blades.
Bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid the risk of injury related to an
automatic change to START mode.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
