Pull the headrest towards you (i.e.
towards the front of the vehicle) and

To adjust the angle of the headrest
On certain vehicles the angle of the
headrest can be adjusted. To do this,
move the front sectionAof the
headrest forwards or backwards
until it feels comfortable.To remove the headrest
First incline the seatback towards
the rear.
Raise the headrest until it is at the
highest possible setting. Lift up
tab1and then pull the headrest
upwards until it is released.
To refit the headrest

the notches facing the front.
Lower the headrest until it locks in

CHILD SAFETY(continued)
CHILD SAFETY
•No modifications may be made to the component parts of the restraint system (belts and seats and their
mountings) fitted originally.
• The fitting instructions provided by the manufacturer of the restraint system should be followed carefully.
• Avoid wearing bulky clothing and do not place any objects between the child and the restraint system.
• The seat belt on the vehicle must be taut so that the child’s seat is held in position securely. Check the tension
regularly.
• Never wear the belt under the arm or behind the back.
• The harness or belt should be taut and fitted to suit the child’s stature.
• Never allow your child to stand or kneel on the seat when the vehicle is moving.
• Check that the child is in the correct position for the entire journey, particularly when he or she is asleep.
• Use the seat belts to hold the seat in position, even if it is not occupied. Otherwise, if an accident occurs, it may
become dislodged and pose a risk to other vehicle occupants.
• Following a serious accident, have an inspection made of the seat belts and restraint systems fitted at the time.
• Never leave a child unsupervised in a vehicle, even if he or she is in a child seat.
• Activate the rear door locks (if your vehicle is equipped with these).
• Make sure the child does not get out of the vehicle at the side where there is traffic.
• Set your children a good example - always wear your seat belt.

To reset the trip mileage recorder,
the display must show the “trip
mileometer” function.
Automatic reset
Automatic resetting will occur
when the maximum of any of the
memories is exceeded.3Display selection key
Press button3repeatedly to
scroll through the following
information:
a) total mileage recorder,
b) trip mileage recorder,
c) fuel used,
d) average consumption,
e) current consumption,
f) estimated range,
g) distance covered,
h) average speed,
i) recommended speed (speed
limiter/cruise control).
Refer to the chart on the following
page for display examples.
Interpreting certain values
displayed after a reset:
The values showing average fuel
consumption, range and average
speed will become more stable
and reliable the further you travel
since the last time the reset key
was pressed.In the first few miles after resetting,
you may notice:
• that the range increases as you
drive. This is normal as the
average consumption may reduce
when:
- the vehicle is no longer
accelerating,
- the engine reaches normal
operating temperature (reset
when engine was cold),
- you drive from a built up area to
the open road.
If average consumption is
decreased, the expected range
will therefore increase.
• average consumption increases
when the vehicle is stationary
and idling.
This is normal as the computer
takes into account the fuel used
during idling.

and to coolmoving parts and it is
sometimes necessary to top up the
level between oil changes.

(1000 km) after the running-in
period.

level from time to time and always
before long journeys, to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.

ground and the engine should have
been switched off for some time
beforehand to obtain an accurate
