CHANGING A WINDSCREEN
WIPER BLADE
Placing the wiper blades in the
maintenance position

 Less than one minute after switch-
ing off the ignition, press the wind-
screen wiper stalk down once to
position the blades at the top of
the windscreen (maintenance po-
sition).
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
After the engine has stopped, certain
functions (windscreen wiper, elec-
tric windows, sunroof, electric seats,
audio equipment, telephone, dipped
headlamps, video, etc.) can only be
used for a limited combined duration,
to prevent discharging of the battery.
Once this period has elapsed, a
switching to economy mode message
appears on the multifunction display
and the active functions are put on
standby.
These functions are reactivated auto-
matically next time the vehicle is driven.
In order to exit the economy mode and
resume the use of these functions im-
mediately, the engine must be started
and left to run for a few minutes.
If the engine has been running for at
least 10 minutes, all of the functions
are active for 30 minutes.
If the engine has been running for less
than 10 minutes, this duration before re-
turning to economy mode is 5 minutes. All of these functions are
available when the engine is
running.
If the telephone is being used
when economy mode starts, it will still
be possible to i nish the call.
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 au-
tomatic, once the battery charge is
sufi cient.

Note: at the risk of discharging the
battery, the functions that have been
switched off may be reactivated
manually.
Replacing a blade

 Lift the arm, then unclip the blade
and remove it.

 Fit the new blade and fold down
the arm.
To reposition the blades, switch on the
ignition and operate the windscreen
wiper stalk. A l at battery prevents the en-
gine from starting.
If the doors or boot are opened
several times or if the alarm is
triggered, this may result in activation
of the energy economy mode.
