The gearbox then operates in auto-
active mode, without any action on
the part of the driver.
It continuously selects the gear most
suited to the following parameters:
- driving style,
- road characteristics,
- vehicle load.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain
the most suitable gear, avoid sharp vari-
ations in the pressure on the accelerator
pedal.
"Auto sequential" mode
In the automated mode, you can
resume control temporarily at any time
using the steering wheel controls.
The use of these controls permits manual
selection of the gears in situations which
require a faster changedown than that
offered in automated mode (arrival at a
roundabout, exit from a car park with a
steep gradient, overtaking...). Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can:
- move to position
N to leave the
gearbox in neutral.
- leave a gear engaged, such as fi rst or reverse.
In both cases, it is imperative that you
apply the handbrake to immobilise the
vehicle.
Operating anomaly
With the ignition on, if the message

"Slow down" or "Maintenance re-
quired" appears on the multifunction

mately 2 seconds), the time required to
move your foot from the brake pedal to
the accelerator pedal. This function is
only active when the vehicle has been
completely immobilised with your foot
on the brake pedal and on certain gra-
dients.

Do not get out of the vehicle during
the hill start assistance temporary
immobilisation phase.
To immobilise the vehicle on a hill for a
longer period, you must use the hand-
brake, not the accelerator.
When starting on a hill, accelerate gradu-
ally while releasing the handbrake.

CHECKS
CHECKING LEVELS CHECKING LEVELS Brake fluid level To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.
Oil level The reading will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for
more than 15 minutes.
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the oil
level indicator on the instrument panel,
or using the dipstick. The brake fl uid level should be
between the "MAX" and "MIN"
marks.
If it is not, check the brake pad
wear.
Draining the circuit
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
Coolant level
The coolant level must be
measured when the engine is
cold and should be between
the "LOW" and "FULL" marks.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is regulated
by the fan. This can operate with the igni-
tion off.
On vehicles which are fi tted with a
particle emission fi lter, the fan may
operate after the vehicle has been
switched off, even if the engine is
cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work. Wash-wipe and headlamp wash
