Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by "OIL- -" flashing or the display
of a message.
Contact the dealer network or a qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault with the electric indicator,
the oil level is no longer monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
For more information on Checking levels
and, in particular, the oil level, refer to the
corresponding section.
AdBlue® fluid range indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reser ve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed.
In the event of the risk of non-
starting related to a lack of AdBlue®
The engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is
e m pt y.
Range greater than 1,500 miles (2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of range in the instrument
panel.
Above around 3,000 miles (5,000 km), the
value is not defined. With the type 2 instrument panel, pressing this
button temporarily shows the driving range.
Range between 1,500 miles and 370 miles (2,400 and 600 km)
When driving, the message is displayed every
190 miles (300 km) until the level is topped up.
The reser ve level has been reached; it is
recommended that you top up as soon as
possible.
Go to a member of the dealer network or a
qualified workshop to have the AdBlue
® topped
up.
You can also top up the tank yourself.
For more information on AdBlue
® and the
SCR system , and in particular on topping
up the AdBlue
®, refer to the corresponding
section.
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message indicating the remaining
range expressed in miles or kilometres before
engine starting is prevented.

The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open a
door, the boot, the bonnet, etc.
- Volumetric monitoring
The system checks for any variation in the
volume in the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a
window, enters the passenger compartment or
moves inside the vehicle.
- Anti-tilt monitoring
The system checks for any change in the
attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is lifted,
moved or knocked.
Self-protection function
The system checks the deactivation status of
its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, central
control unit or the siren wiring is put out of
service or damaged.
For all work on the alarm system,

Malfunction
If a fault occurs with the automatic rain sensitive
wipers, the wipers will operate in intermittent mode.
Contact the dealer network or a qualified workshop.
Do not cover the rain sensor, linked with
the sunshine sensor and located in the top
centre of the windscreen, behind the rear
view mirror.
When using an automatic car wash, switch
off the automatic rain sensitive wipers.
In winter, it is advisable to wait until the
windscreen is completely clear of ice before
activating the automatic rain sensitive wipers.
Windscreen and headlamp
wash
Front screenwashHeadlamp wash
To reduce the fluid consumption of the
headlamp wash, it operates only with
every seventh use of the screenwash or
every 25 miles (40 km) during a given
j o u r n ey.
Low screenwash/headlamp wash
fluid
level
Checking and topping up this fluid should be
done with the engine off.
The fluid level should be checked
regularly, particularly during winter.
For more information on Checking levels and,
in particular, the screenwash/headlamp wash,
refer to the corresponding section.
Special position of the
windscreen wipers
This position permits release of the windscreen
wiper blades.
It is used for cleaning or replacement of the
wiper blades. It can also be useful, in winter, to
release the wiper blades from the windscreen.
F

P

you. The windscreen wash and then the
wipers come on for a preset time.
They operate by themselves when the dipped
and main beam headlamps are off or when the
vehicle is stationary. Associated with the screenwash, the headlamp
wash operates when the vehicle is moving and
the dipped or main beam headlamps are on
.
On vehicles fitted with headlamp washers, the
low level of this fluid is indicated by a gauge
located in the reser voir filler neck under the
bonnet. F

The Stop & Start system requires a
12 V battery of specific technology and
specification.
All work on this type of battery must only
be carried out in the dealer network or by
a qualified workshop.
For more information on the 12 V batter y ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Opening the bonnet
Driving on flooded roads
Before driving in a flooded area, it is
strongly recommended that you deactivate
the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Driving advice ,
particularly on flooded roads, refer to the
corresponding section. Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid any risk of injury resulting from an
automatic change to START mode.Hill start assist
System which keeps your vehicle immobilised
temporarily (approximately 2 seconds) when
starting on a gradient, the time it takes to
move your foot from the brake pedal to the
accelerator pedal.
This system only operates when:
-

t
he vehicle is completely stationary, with
your foot on the brake pedal,
-

c
ertain slope conditions are met,
-

w
ith the driver’s door closed.
The hill start assist function cannot be
deactivated.
Operation
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle
stationar y, the vehicle is held for a shor t
time when you release the brake pedal:
-

i
f you are in first gear or neutral with a
manual gearbox, On a descending slope, with the vehicle
stationary and reverse gear engaged, the
vehicle is held for a shor t time when you
release the brake pedal.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily in the hill start assist
phase.
If you need to leave the vehicle with the
engine running, apply the parking brake
manually then ensure that the parking
brake warning lamps light up constantly on
the instrument panel.

Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with
the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them
up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by the dealer
network or a qualified workshop.The fluid must comply with the
manufacturer's recommendations and with
the vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the
bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and
the cooling fan could start at any time
(even
with the ignition off).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
or indeed very corrosive. Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Return used oil to the dealer network or
a qualified workshop and dispose of it in
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles equipped with an
electric gauge, or using the dipstick.
To ensure that the reading is correct, your
vehicle must be parked on a level sur face
with the engine stopped for more than
30


minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
ser vices (or oil changes). We recommend that
you check the level, and top up if necessary,
every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
Checking using the dipstick
The location of the dipstick is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F
T
ake the dipstick by its coloured grip and
pull it out completely. A = MA X
B = MIN
If you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not star t the engine.
-
I
f the level is above the MAX
mark (risk of
damage to the engine), contact the dealer
network or a qualified workshop.
-
I
f the level is below the MIN
mark, you must
top up the engine oil.
Oil grade
Before topping up the oil or changing the oil,
check that the oil is the correct grade for your
engine and conforms to the manufacturer's
recommendations. F
W
