Information and advice for use:
Refer to information on “Air condition-
ing: information and advice on use”.Distribution of air in the
passenger compartment
Turn control A to position the pointer
opposite the marked positions.
JAll the air flow is directed to the
dashboard vents.
GThe air flow is directed towards
the dashboard vents and the
footwells.
FThe air flow is directed towards
the footwells and the dash-
board vents. Close the dashboard vents to direct all
the air to the foot wells.
iThe air flow is distributed be-
tween all the air vents, the
front side window demister outlets, the
windscreen demisting vents and the
footwells.
WFor more efficient demist-
ing, close the vents in the
dashboard and ensure that you are
set to external air (control D to the
right).
All the air flow is then directed to the
windscreen demisting vents and the
front side windows.
For maximum efficiency, set control
C


to 4.
Using the air conditioning increases the
speed of demisting.
Recommended demisting option :
Turn controls A, C and D to the

AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase
in fuel consumption (especially
when driving in town) when the air
conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with air condition-
ing with no automatic mode, switch
off the system when it is not re-
quired.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the envi-
ronment
Drive with the air vents open and
the windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in
the sun, open the doors for a few
moments to let the hot air escape
before starting the engine. Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an op-
erating fault.

Transporting objects in the boot
TRANSPORTING OBjECTS IN THE LuGGAGE COMPARTMENT
Always position the heavi-
est items directly on the
floor. Use the lashing points
on the luggage compart-
ment floor, if these are fitted to the
vehicle. The luggage should be
loaded in such a way that no items
will be thrown forward and strike the
occupants if the driver has to brake
suddenly.
Always place objects being transported
so that their longest side rests against
the back of the rear bench seatbacks,
as with normal loads (example
A )

or
against the back of the front seats when
the rear bench seatbacks are folded
down. Refer to the information on the
“Rear bench seat” in this section.
A
Fasten the rear seat belts,
even if the seats are not oc-
cupied.
Ensure that the load is evenly distrib-
uted over the largest loading surface to
prevent damage to the vehicle.

Towing: troubleshooting
TOWING: breakdown (1/3)
Towing procedure
The steering wheel must be un-
locked and the ignition key must be
in position M (ignition on) to pro-
vide stop lights and hazard warning
lights on the towed vehicle. At night
the vehicle must have its lights on.
Unhitch the trailer, etc., if one is being
towed.
You must observe the towing regu-
lations which apply in the country in
which you are driving: do not exceed
the towing weight for your vehicle.
Contact an approved Dealer.
Front and rear towing points
Only use the front 1 and rear 2
towing points.
W h e n t h e e n g i n e i s
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op-
erational.
Do not leave the tools unse-
cured inside the vehicle as
they may come loose under
braking.
– Use a rigid towing bar (except for off-road recovery). If a rope or cable
is used (where the law allows this), the vehicle being towed must be able
to brake.
–

A
vehicle must not be towed if it is not fit to be driven.
–

A

void accelerating or braking suddenly when towing, as this may result in
damage being caused to the vehicle.
–

When towing a vehicle, it is advisable not to exceed 15 mph (25

km/h).
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.
