Always switch off the programmable
heating while fi lling with fuel to avoid
any risk of fi re or explosion.
To avoid any risk of poisoning and
asphyxiation, the programmable heat-
ing must not be used, even for short
periods, in an enclosed space such
as a garage or workshop which is not
equipped with an exhaust gas extrac-
tion system.
Do not park the vehicle on an infl am-
mable surface (dry grass, dead leaves,
paper…), there is a risk of fi re.
The programmable heating system
is supplied by the vehicle's fuel tank.
Before use, ensure that the quantity
of fuel remaining is suffi cient. If the
fuel tank is at the reserve, we strongly
advise that you do not programme the
heating.
Changing the battery
The remote control is supplied by a
6V-28L battery, which is supplied.
Information on the display indicates
when it is time to replace this battery.
Unclip the casing then replace the bat-
tery.
The remote control must then be reini-
tialised, see below.
Do not discard the used batteries, take
them to an approved collection point. Reinitialising the remote
control
If the vehicle's battery is discon-
nected or the remote control's
battery is replaced, the remote control
must be reinitialised.
After switching on the power, press
button 4 (OFF) for 1 second within the

ticular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short dis-
tances.
Brake pads
