TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR (1/3)
This system monitors the tyre pressure.
The pressures must be adjusted
when the tyres are cold.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, assume an in-
crease of 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure.
The system informs the driver via the
trip computer and warning system 1
that the tyres are sufficiently inflated
and warns if they are underinflated or
leaking.
1
This function is an addi-
tional driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vig-
ilance or the responsibility of the
driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.
The operation of the tyre pressure
monitor may be affected by using
devices near the vehicle which op-
erate on the same frequency.
In this case, the system indicates a
drop in tyre pressure under normal
conditions.
The operation of the tyre pressure
monitor may be affected if snow
chains are fitted to the tyres or if the
tyres are stuck in snow.
Changing a wheel
Depending on use, the
system may take several
minutes for the new wheel
positions and pressures to be rec-
ognised; check the tyre pressures
after all operations.

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM: 4 wheel drive (4WD) (3/3)
All-wheel drive system
– Depending on the driving conditions, the system may switch automatically from “2WD” to “4WD”. In this case, the
“4WD” indicator light does not come on.
– Whichever mode is selected, do not start the engine if the rear wheels are on the ground and the front wheels are in the air
(e.g. vehicle jacked up) or if they are resting on rollers.
– Do not press the mode selector switch while cornering, reversing or if the wheels are slipping. Only select the “2WD”,
“AUTO” or “4WD Lock” mode when the vehicle is being driven in a straight line.
– When the engine warms up, the idle speed may be higher. Be careful when driving or stopping on slippery roads with the
“AUTO” mode selected.
– Only use tyres which meet the required specifications.
– Snow chains must only be fitted to the front wheels.
– This function is an additional aid in the event of critical driving conditions, enabling the vehicle behaviour to be adapted to
suit the driving conditions.
However, the function does not take the place of the driver. It does not increase the vehicle’s limits and should not en-
courage you to drive more quickly. Therefore, it can under no circumstances replace the vigilance or responsibility of the
driver when manoeuvring the vehicle (the driver must always be ready for sudden incidents which may occur when driving).
– It is recommended not to use “4WD Lock” mode permanently when driving on roads in good condition.
– Always ensure tyres with identical specifications are fitted to all four wheels (brand, size, structure, wear etc.). Fitting tyres
of different sizes to the front and rear wheels and/or left and right wheels may have serious consequences for the tyres,
gearbox, transfer gearbox and the rear differential pinions.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES (3/5)
If you deactivate this function, the
traction control (ASR) system will
also be deactivated.
As the ESC and ASR provide enhanced
safety, it is not advisable to drive with
the function switched off. Correct
this as soon as possible by pressing
switch 1 again.
Note: the system is automatically reac-
tivated each time the engine is switched
off.
1
Disabling the ESC function
(including traction control (ASR)
system)
In some situations (driving on very wet
ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with
snow chains fitted), the system may
reduce the engine output to limit wheel-
spin. If this is not required, it is possible
to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
Depending on the vehicle warning
light
 or the message “ESC off”
is displayed on the instrument panel to
inform you.
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
Depending on the speed at which the
brake pedal is depressed, the system
will detect emergency braking. In this
case, the braking assistance immedi-
ately develops maximum power and
may trigger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration.

Tyre safety and use of snow
chains
Refer to the information on “Tyres”
in Section 5 for the servicing con-
ditions and, depending on the ver-
sion, the use of chains.
Special note
For vehicles used fully laden
(Maximum Permissible All-up
Weight) and towing a trailer. The
maximum speed must be limited
to 60 mph (100 kph) and the tyre
pressure increased by 0.2 bar.
Refer to the information on “Weights”
in Section 6.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and
profile should be used.
They must: either be identical to
those fitted originally or conform
to those recommended by your
authorised dealer.

PUNCTURE, EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL
Emergency spare wheel 4This is located in the luggage compart-
ment. To access it:
– Open the tailgate, lift the floor
carpet 1, then remove the cover 2;
– unscrew mounting 3 by turning it an-
ticlockwise and remove it;
– if the vehicle is fitted with speaker 5,
remove the adhesive tape then place
it to the side;
– remove the emergency spare
wheel 4.
Vehicles fitted with an
emergency spare wheel
smaller than the four
other wheels:
– Never fit more than one emer-
gency spare wheel to the same
vehicle.
– Replace the emergency spare
wheel as soon as possible with a
wheel with the same dimensions
as the original.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle,
which must only be a temporary
measure, the driving speed must
not exceed the speed indicated
on the label on the wheel.
– Fitting an emergency spare
wheel may alter the way the ve-
hicle usually runs. Avoid sudden
acceleration or deceleration and
reduce your speed when corner-
ing.
– If snow chains must be used, fit
the emergency spare wheel on
the rear axle in order to have a
normal size wheel at the front
then check the tyre pressure.
If the emergency spare
wheel has been stored
for several years, have it
checked by your Dealer to
ensure that it is safe to use.

Special note
The tyre pressure monitor does not
check the emergency spare wheel
(the wheel replaced by the emergency
spare wheel disappears from the instru-
ment panel display).
Refer to the information on the “Tyre
pressure monitor” in Section 2.

Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation. It is neces-
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.Use in winter
Chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly for-
bidden.
Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which
are larger than those originally fitted to
the vehicle.
Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning: These tyres sometimes have
a specific direction of rotation and a
maximum speed index which may be
lower than the maximum speed of your
vehicle.
TYRES (3/3)
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact an approved dealer
who will be able to advise you on
the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
Fitting new tyres
Always ensure tyres with identi-
cal specifications are fitted to all four
wheels (brand, size, structure, wear
etc.). Fitting tyres of different sizes to
the front and rear wheels and/or left
and right wheels may have serious
consequences for the tyres, gearbox,
transfer gearbox and the rear differen-
tial pinions.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– it may change the way it handles
when cornering;
– it may cause the steering to be
heavy;
– It may affect the use of snow
chains.
When changing a tyre, make sure all four tyres are changed at the same
time in order to preserve the transmission system.
