Access
2Normal locking
► Press the locking button.
The locking, and the activation of the alarm
depending on version, is confirmed by the
lighting of the direction indicators.
Depending on version, the door mirrors fold.
An access (door or boot) that is not properly closed prevents locking of the
vehicle. However, if the vehicle is fitted with
an alarm, it will be activated after 45
seconds.
If the vehicle is unlocked but the doors or boot
are not subsequently opened,
the vehicle
will automatically lock itself again after about
30

seconds. If the vehicle is fitted with an
alarm, it will be reactivated automatically.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the interior door
controls inoperative. It also disables the
central locking button.
The horn remains operational.
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle
when it is deadlocked.
►

Press the locking button.
►


Press the locking button again within 3
seconds to deadlock the vehicle (confirmed by
the temporary lighting of the direction indicators).
For the vehicles equipped with the Proximity
Keyless Entry and Start system, a double
audible signal indicates that the vehicle is not
deadlocked.
Opening / Closing the
windows
Opening the windows
► Press the unlocking button for more
than 3 seconds.
Depending on version, the windows stop when
the button is released or by pressing the button
a second time.
Closing the windows and sunroof
(depending on version)
► Press the locking button for more than
3 seconds.
Depending on version, the windows and the
sunroof stop when the button is released or by
pressing the button a second time.
Ensure that no person or object could
prevent the correct closing of the
windows and sunroof.
If, on versions with alarm, you want to
leave the windows and/or sunroof partially
open, you must first deactivate the interior
volumetric alarm protection.
For more information on the Alarm, refer to
the corresponding section.
Remote lighting of the
lamps
► Press this button. The sidelamps,
dipped beam headlamps, number plate
lamps and door mirror spotlamps come on for 30
seconds.
Pressing again before the end of the timed
period switches off the lamps immediately.
Advice
Remote control
The remote control is a sensitive, high-
frequency device; avoid handling it in your
pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally
unlocking the vehicle.
Avoid pressing the remote control buttons
while out of range of the vehicle, due to
the risk of rendering the remote control
inoperative. It would then be necessary to
reset it.
The remote control does not work
when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when the
ignition is switched off.
Anti-theft protection
Do not modify the electronic vehicle
immobiliser, as this might result in
malfunctions.
For vehicles with a key ignition switch,
remember to remove the key and turn the
steering wheel to engage the steering lock.

Ease of use and comfort
Correct driving position
For safety reasons, adjustments must
only be made when the vehicle is
stationary.
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and
controls, carry out these adjustments in the
following order:
–

head restraint height.
–


seat backrest angle.
–


seat cushion height.
–


longitudinal seat position.
–


steering wheel height and reach.
–


rear view mirror and door mirrors.

Once these adjustments have been
made, check that the instrument panel
can be viewed correctly from your driving
position.
Front head restraints
Adjusting the height

Upwards:
► Pull the head restraint up to the desired
position; you can feel the head restraint clicking
into position.
Downwards:
►

Press lug
A to lower the head restraint.
The head restraint is correctly adjusted when its upper edge is level with the top
of the head.
Removing a head restraint
► Tilt the backrest to the rear to make it easier
to remove the head restraint.
►

Pull the head restraint fully up.
►


Press lug
A to release the head restraint and
raise it fully.
►

Stow the head restraint securely
.
Refitting a head restraint
► Insert the head restraint rods into the guides
in the corresponding seat backrest.
►

Push the head restraint fully down.
►


Press the lug
A to release the head restraint
and push it down.
►

Adjust the height of the head restraint.
Never drive with the head restraints
removed; they should be in place and
adjusted for the occupant of the seat.
Front seats
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is no person or object
that might prevent the full travel of the seat.
There is a risk of trapping or pinching
passengers if present in the rear seats or of
jamming the seat if large objects are placed
on the floor behind the seat.

Ease of use and comfort
Heated seats



The function is active only with the engine
running and when the outside temperature is
below 20°C.
►
Press the button corresponding to the seat.
►


Each press changes the heating level; the
corresponding number of indicator lamps come
on.
►


T
o switch off the heating, press the button
until all of the indicator lamps are off.
The system status is memorised when the
ignition is switched off.
Do not use the function when the seat
is not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electrical
consumption in turn decreases energy
consumption.
Prolonged use of heated seats is not
recommended for people with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (e.g.
illness,
taking medication).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:
–

Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the
seat.
–


Do not kneel or stand on the seat.
–


Do not spill liquids onto the seat.
–


Never use the heating function if the seat
is damp.
Steering wheel

stationary.
Heated steering wheel
(Depending on country of sale)
In cold weather, this function heats the circular
part of the steering wheel.
It can be activated when the outside temperature
is below 20°C.




► With the engine running, press this button to
activate/deactivate the function (confirmed by the
indicator lamp coming on/going out).

Wiper control stalk
Before operating the wipers in wintry
conditions, clear any snow, ice or frost
from the windscreen and around the wiper
arms and blades.
Do not operate the wipers on a dry
windscreen. In extremely hot or cold
weather, check that the wiper blades are not

Front airbags

System that protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious front impact,
limiting the risk of head and chest injury.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the

steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard,
passenger's side, to cushion their forward
movement.
Lateral airbags

In the event of a serious side impact, this system
protects the driver and front passenger to
mitigate the risk of injury to the chest, between
the hip and the shoulder.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, on the door side.
Deployment
The lateral airbags are deployed on one side in
the event of a serious side impact applied to all
or part of the side impact zone B.
The lateral airbag inflates between the chest of
the vehicle's occupant and the corresponding
door panel.
Curtain airbags
System contributing towards greater protection
for the driver and passengers (with the exception
of the rear centre passenger) in the event of a
serious side impact in order to limit the risk of
injury to the side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and
the upper passenger compartment area.
Deployment
It deploys simultaneously with the corresponding
lateral airbag in the event of a serious side
impact applied to all or part of the side impact
zone B.
The curtain airbag inflates between the front
and rear occupants of the vehicle and the
corresponding windows.
