FAMILIARISATION

Seat belts not fastened/
unfastened warning lamp
This warning lamp informs you if
the driver’s or front passenger’s
seat belt is not fastened (de-

FAMILIARISATION
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.


Optimise the use of your
gearbox

With a manual gearbox, move off
gently, change up without waiting and
drive by changing up quite soon. If
your vehicle has the system, the gear
shift indicator invites you to change
up; it is displayed in the instrument
panel, follow its instructions.

With an automatic or electronic gear-
box, stay in Drive "D"
or Auto "A"
, ac-
cording to the type of gearbox, without
pressing the accelerator pedal heavily
or suddenly.



Drive smoothly


Maintain a safe distance between ve-
hicles, use engine braking rather than
the brake pedal, and press the accel-
erator progressively. These practices
contribute towards a reduction in fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions and
also helps reduce the background traf-
fi c noise.

If your vehicle has cruise control, make
use of the system at speeds above
25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffi c is
fl owing well.



Control the use of your
electrical equipment

Before moving off, if the passenger
compartment is too warm, ventilate it
by opening the windows and air vents
before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the
windows and leave the air vents
open.
Remember to make use of equipment
that can help keep the temperature
in the passenger compartment down
(sunroof and window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning, unless
it has automatic digital regulation, as
soon as the desired temperature is at-
tained.
Switch off the demisting and defrost-
ing controls, if not automatic.
Switch off the heated seat as soon as
possible.

COMFORT

Air conditioning

To ensure that your system operates
correctly, it is recommended that you
have it checked regularly.
Water arising from condensation
in the air conditioning drains away
through a hole provided for this pur-
pose. A pool of water may thus form
under the vehicle when stationary.
To preserve the sealing of the air
conditioning compressor, operate
the air conditioning at least once a
month.
Regardless of the season, the air
conditioning is useful, since it re-
moves humidity and condensation.
To be effective, the air conditioning
should only be used with the win-
dows closed.
If after a lengthy stop in bright sunlight
the interior temperature is excessive,
air the passenger compartment by
opening the windows for a few mo-
ments, then close them again.
The air conditioning operates by
using power from the engine. This
results in a slight increase in fuel
consumption.


Dust filter/Odour filter (active
carbon)
There is a fi lter for excluding odours
and dust.
This fi lter has to be changed in ac-
cordance with the vehicle's servicing
schedule (see the servicing booklet).


Air circulation

Air vents on the fl oor underneath the
front seats provide enhanced heat-
ing for the rear seat positions; take
care not to obstruct them.


Air vents

The air vents to the face have grilles
and thumb wheels to adjust the air
fl ow and direction (up-down, right-
left).
The automatic regulation of the air
conditioning in the passenger com-
partment uses a number of sensors
(sunshine sensor, ambient tempera-
ture sensor...) that relieve you of the
need to make frequent adjustments to
the displayed temperature.
Take care not to obstruct the sun-
shine sensor, located on the dash-
board behind the instrument panel.

ACCESS
FUEL TANK

Capacity of the tank: approxi-
mately 60 litres.



Low fuel level

When the low fuel level is
reached, this warning lamp
on the instrument panel
comes on, accompanied by
an audible warning and a message
on the multifunction screen.
When it fi rst comes on, about 7 litres

of fuel remain in the tank.
Until suffi cient fuel has been
added, this warning lamp appears
every time the ignition is switched
on, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message. Depending
on version, this audible warning
and message are repeated with
increasing frequency as the fuel
level drops towards " 0
".
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out. A label on the inside of the fuel fi ller
fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel
to use, depending on your engine
type.
Additions of fuel must be of at least
5 litres to be registered by the fuel
gauge.

Refuelling


If you are fi lling your tank to
the top, do not persist after the
3rd cut-off; this could cause
malfunctions.






With Stop & Start, never refuel with
the system in STOP mode; you
must switch off the ignition with the
key. Opening the fi ller cap may result in
an inrush of air. This is entirely nor-
mal and results from the sealing of
the fuel system.


)
Press control switch A
, situated
on the switch panel on the left of
the dashboard, until the fuel fl ap
opens.
This control switch remains ac-
tive for a few minutes after
switching of the ignition. If nec-
essary, switch the ignition on
again to reactivate it.

)
Take care to select the pump
that delivers the correct type of
fuel for your vehicle.

)
Introduce the nozzle so as to push
in the metal non-return fl ap B.

)
Make sure that the nozzle is
pushed in as far as possible
before starting to refuel (risk of
blowback).

)
Maintain this position throughout
the refuelling operation.

)
Push the fuel fl ap to close it.

VISIBILITY






Daytime running lamps

Daytime lighting, compulsory in cer-
tain countries, which comes on auto-
matically when the engine is started
making the vehicle more visible to
other users.






Manual guide-me-home
lighting
The temporary lighting of dipped
headlamps after the vehicle's igni-
tion has been switched off makes
the driver's exit easier when the light
is poor.

Switching on


)
With the ignition off, "fl ash" the
headlamps using the lighting
stalk B
.

)
A second "headlamp fl ash"
switches the function off again.


Switching off
The manual guide-me-home lighting
switches off automatically after a set
time.
The manual guide-me-home light-
ing is also available by pressing the
lighting button on the remote con-
trol (refer to the section "Access -
§ Remote control key").
This function is assured:


- in countries where it is imposed
by regulations,
by illumination of the dipped
beam headlamps with the side-
lamps and number plate lamps.

- for other countries where it is
provided,

by the use of dedicated LED lamps.


The instruments and controls (mul-
tifunction screen, air conditioning
control panel, ...) are not illuminated,
except in night mode with manual or
automatic illumination of headlamps.











LED lamps

They come on when the engine is
started.
Depending on the destination country,
they are used for:


- daytime running lamps in day mode
and sidelamps in night mode,
or


- sidelamps in day and night mode
Where LED lamps are fi tted, the fi la-
ment bulbs for the sidelamps in the
front lamp units are not used.
Activation or deactivation of this
lighting is done via the vehicle con-
fi guration menu. This function can be activated or
deactivated via the vehicle confi gu-
ration menu.
