Running out of fuel
(Diesel)
On vehicles fitted with Diesel engines, the fuel
system must be primed if you run out of fuel.For more information on Misfuel
prevention (Diesel) , refer to the
corresponding section.
If the engine does not start first time, do
not keep trying, but start the procedure
again from the beginning.

Temporary puncture
repair kit
Scan the QR code on page 3 to view
e xplanatory videos.
Comprising a
compressor and a sealant
cartridge, it allows the temporary repair of
a

tyre so that you can drive to the nearest
garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which
could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.
The vehicle's electrical system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a
tyre after a puncture
repair.
Under-inflation detection
After repair of the tyre, the warning
lamp will remain on until the system is
reinitialised.
For more information on Under-inflation
detection , refer to the corresponding
section.

Removing a wheel
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the
ground is slippery or loose, the jack may
slip or collapse – Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only at
one of the jacking points A or B under the
vehicle, making sure that the vehicle's
contact sur face is centred on the head of
the jack. Otherwise, the vehicle could be
damaged and/or the jack could collapse –
Risk of injury!
*
position R for the electronic gearbox, P for
the automatic gearbox Parking the vehicle
Park the vehicle where it does not block
traffic: the ground must be level, stable
and non-slippery.
Apply the parking brake, switch off the
ignition and engage first gear* so as to
block the wheels.
If necessary, place a
chock under the
wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be
changed.
Make absolutely certain that all the
occupants have left the vehicle and are
waiting in a safe area.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.
Wheel with wheel trim
When removing the wheel , first remove
the wheel trim using wheelbrace 1
by
pulling at the valve aperture.
When refitting the wheel , after tightening
the wheel bolts, refit the wheel trim,
starting by placing its aperture in line with
the valve and then pushing it into place all
round its edge with the palm of your hand.
List of operations
F Remove the chrome bolt cover from each of the bolts using the tool 3 (only with alloy
w h e e l s).
F

F

Changing a bulb
The headlamps have polycarbonate
lenses with a
protective coating:
F

d
o not clean them using a dr y or
abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent
or solvent product,
F

u
se a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product,
F

w
hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep the
lance directed towards the lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to
damage their protective coating and
seals.
Changing a


bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp has
been switched off for several minutes –
Risk of serious burns!
F

D
o not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers, use a
lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a
failed bulb with a new
bulb with the same type and specification.
Front lamps
Halogen headlamps
1. Direction indicators (PY21W amber).
2. Sidelamps (W5W).
3. Main beam headlamps (H1-55W).
4. Dipped beam headlamps (H7-55W).
5. LED foglamps.
6. LED daytime running lamps.
Direction indicators
Rapid flashing of the direction indicator
lamp (left or right) indicates that one of
the bulbs on the corresponding side has
failed.
F

T
urn the bulb holder a quarter turn and
remove it.
F

P
ull the bulb out and change it.
To refit, carry out these operations in reverse
o r d e r.
Amber colour bulbs, such as the direction
indicators, must be replaced by bulbs with
identical colour and specifications.
To refit, close the protective cover very
carefully to guarantee the leak-tightness
of the lamp.

Changing a fuse
Access to the tools
The extraction tweezers and the locations for
spare fuses are installed behind the fusebox
cover on the dashboard.
Changing a fuse
F always replace the defective fuse with
a fuse of the same rating (same colour);
using a
different rating could cause
a
malfunction (risk of fire).
If the fault recurs after replacing a
fuse, have
the electrical system checked in the dealer
network or by a
qualified workshop.
Replacement with a
fuse not shown in
the allocation tables below may cause
a


serious malfunction of your vehicle.

Check beforehand that the backup
battery has a nominal voltage of 12 V and
a capacity at least equal to that of the
discharged battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off all the electrical consumers
on both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, etc.).
