CHANGING A WINDSCREEN WIPER BLADE
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION
After the engine has stopped, certain
electrical functions can be used for a
maximum duration of approximately
one hour, to prevent discharging of the
battery.
LOAD REDUCTION FUNCTION
When driving, certain functions (air
conditioning, heated rear screen,
heating system for passenger com-
partment of diesel vehicles, etc.) may
be switched off temporarily, depending
on the level of battery charge.
Reactivation of these functions is
automatic, once the battery charge is
suffi cient.
Note: at the risk of discharging
the battery, the functions that
have been switched off may be
reactivated manually.

Note: if the telephone is being
used when economy mode
starts, it will still be possible to
fi nish the call.
A fl at battery prevents the
engine from starting.

matically next time the vehicle is driven.

few minutes.
The time available to you will then be
approximately double the duration

reduced if the battery charge
is low.
