© Warning light
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out as soon as
the engine is started. It can light up in
conjunction with other indicator lights
and/or messages on the instrument
panel.
It means you should drive very care-
fully to an authorised dealer as soon
as possible. If you fail to follow this rec-
ommendation, you risk damaging your
vehicle.
®sTOp light
This lights up when the ignition
is switched on and goes out as soon as
the engine is started. It comes on with
other warning lights and/or messages,
and is accompanied by a beep.
It requires you to stop immediately, for
your own safety, as soon as traffic con-
ditions allow. Switch off the engine and
do not restart it.
Contact an approved Dealer.
DElectronic parking brake
and brake circuit fault warn-
ing light
If it comes on during braking and is ac-
companied by the
® warning light
and a beep, it indicates that the fluid
level in the circuit is low or that there is
a braking system fault. Stop as soon as
traffic conditions allow and contact an
authorised dealer.
ÚBattery charge warning light
If it comes on together with the
® warning light and a beep, it in-
dicates that the electrical circuit is over-
charged or undercharged.
ÀOil pressure warning light
If it comes on when you are
driving accompanied by the
®
warning light and a beep, it is essential
to stop and switch off the ignition.
Check the oil level (refer to the informa-
tion on the “Engine oil level” in Section
4). If the level is normal, the light has
come on for another reason: contact an
authorised dealer.

Parking the vehicle
When the vehicle is stopped, move the
lever to position P while keeping your
foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is
in neutral and the drive wheels are me-
chanically locked by the driveshaft.
a pply the handbrake or, depending
on the vehicle, ensure that the elec-
tronic parking brake is applied.
Special circumstances
– If the road contours and bends
do not allow you to stay in auto -
matic mode (e.g.: in the mountains),
we recommend that you change to
manual mode.
This will prevent the automatic gear-
box from changing gears repeatedly
when climbing, and permit engine
braking on long descents.
– In cold weather , to prevent the
engine from stalling, wait a few mo-
ments before shifting the selector
lever from position P or N and en -
gaging D or R.
– Vehicles not fitted with traction
control: on a slippery surface or
surface with a low level of adhe -
sion, change to manual mode and
select second gear before starting
the engine to avoid wheelspin when
starting.
Driving in manual mode
With the selector lever in position D,
move the lever to the left. Shifting the
lever repeatedly allows you to change
gears manually:
– To move down through the gears,
push the lever backwards;
– To move up through the gears, push
the lever forwards.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special cases
Under certain driving conditions (e.g.
engine protection, electronic stability
program (ESP) operational etc.: ESC),
the “automatic system” may change
gear automatically.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeu -
vres, a gear change may be refused by
the automatic system: in this case the
gear display flashes for a few seconds
as a warning.
aUtoMatIC GeaRBox (2/3)
An impact to the underside
of the vehicle (e.g.: striking
a post, raised kerb or other
street furniture) may result
in damage to the vehicle (e.g.: de -
formation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap -
proved Dealer.
In very cold weather, the system
may prevent the gears from being
shifted in manual mode until the
gearbox reaches the right tempera-
ture.
