Practical information07
Do not switch off the engine until the filter
is fully regenerated; repeated intervals
can degrade the engine oil prematurely.
Regenerating the filter while the vehicle is
stationary is not recommended.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you
may, in exceptional circumstances, notice
water vapour coming from the exhaust while
accelerating. These emissions have no impact
on the vehicle’s behaviour and the
environment.
New vehicle
During the first few particle filter
regeneration operations, you may notice a
"burning" smell. This is perfectly normal.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine
servicing. However, in the event of a
problem, do not hesitate to have the system
checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the Electric
parking brake, refer to the corresponding
section.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style of driving,
particularly in the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the
brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are
worn.
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in
wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may
be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and
defrost them.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc
wear, contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres,
including the spare wheel, must be
checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10
kilometres) at over 31 mph (50 km/h), add 0.3 bar
(30 kPa) to the values indicated on the label.
Under-inflation increases energy
consumption. Non-compliant tyre
pressures cause tyres to wear prematurely and
have an adverse effect on the vehicle's road
holding - risk of accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the
braking and road holding performance of the
vehicle. Regularly check the condition of the tyres
(tread and sidewalls) and rims as well as the
presence of the valve caps.
When the wear indicators no longer appear set
back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is
less than 1.6 mm; replace the tyres as soon as
possible.
Using different size wheels and tyres from those
specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel
rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer
reading and have an adverse effect on road
holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Always mark the direction of rotation on the tyres
that will be stored when fitting winter or summer
tyres. Store them in a cool, dry place and away
from direct exposure to the sun's rays.
Winter or 4-seasons tyres can be identified
by this symbol on their sidewalls.
Shock absorbers
It is not easy for drivers to detect when
shock absorbers are worn. Nevertheless,
