Interpreting some of the
values displayed after
resetting
The values showing average fuel con-
sumption, range and average speed
will become more stable and reliable
the further you travel after pressing the
reset button.
For the first few miles after pressing the
reset key you will notice that the range
increases as you travel. This range
takes into account the average fuel con-
sumption since the last time the reset
button was pressed. Therefore, the fuel
consumption may decrease when:
–

the vehicle stops accelerating
;
–

t
he engine reaches its operat-
ing temperature (if the engine
was cold when the reset key was
pressed);
–

d
riving from an urban area onto
the open road;



Therefore,
if the average fuel con-
sumption decreases, the range
will increase. –

Y
ou may also notice that the aver-
age fuel consumption increases
when the vehicle is stationary and
the engine idling.
This is normal, since the computer
takes account of fuel used during
idling.
Manually resetting the journey param-
eters: with the display showing one of
the journey parameters, press button 2
until the display is reset.
Automatically resetting the journey pa-
rameters: the reset is automatic when
the capacity of one of the memories is
exceeded.

(risk of motor overheating).
Keep an eye on the condition of the
blades. Replace the wiper blades as
soon as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).
Clean your windscreen regularly.

Fuel tank (filling with fuel)
FUEL TANK (1/3)
Capacity of the fuel tank: 50 litres ap-
proximately.
The cap can be unlocked with the igni-
tion key.
For details on filling the fuel tank, refer
to the information on “Filling with fuel”.
There is a cap holder
1 on the fuel filler
flap for holding the cap when the tank is
being filled.
Fuel grade
Always use a high-grade fuel that
complies with the legislation in force
in each country. It must conform to the
specifications given on label A inside
the fuel filler flap.
Refer to the “Engine specifications”
table in Section 6.
Vehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
Always use unleaded petrol or fuel
containing a maximum of 85 percent
ethanol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
When the fuel is changed the engine
must adjust, which may cause minor in-
conveniences for a few minutes (longer
starting times, cutting out, etc.).
Fuel filler cap: this is spe-
cific to the vehicle type. If
you have to replace it, make
sure the new cap is of the
same type. Contact an approved
dealer.
Never place the cap near a source
of heat or flame.
Do not wash the filler area with a
high-pressure washer.
A
B
1
Do not mix even small
amounts of petrol (un-
leaded or E85) with diesel.
Do not use ethanol-based
fuel if your vehicle is not compatible
with this fuel.
Do not add any additives to the fuel,
you risk damaging the engine.

Priming bulb (diesel version)
After a breakdown caused by com-
pletely running out of fuel, the system
must be reprimed before the engine is
restarted:
Note: the bulb is always located on the
right-hand side of the engine compart-
ment.
Work bulb

If the engine does not start after several
attempts, contact an approved dealer.
No modifications what -
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wiring,
fuel circuit, injector, protection
covers, etc.) as this may be danger-
ous (such work must be undertaken
by qualified Network personnel).
The engine may be hot
when working in close prox-
imity. In addition, the engine
cooling fan may come on at
any moment.
Risk of injury.

Move the key to “Start” position D with-
out accelerating. Release the key as
soon as the engine starts.
Stopping the engine
With the engine idling, turn the key
back to “Stop” position St.
Starting the engine
In very cold conditions (temperatures
below –20°C): so that it is easier to
start the engine, switch on the ignition
for several seconds before starting the
engine.
Make sure the engine immobiliser is not
activated. Refer to the information on
the “Engine immobiliser” in Section 1.
Starting/stopping the engine
STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE
Never leave your vehicle with the key or remote control inside and never leave a child (or a pet) unsupervised, even
for a short while.
The reason for this is that the child may endanger himself or others by starting the engine, activating equipment such
as the window winders for example, or locking the doors.
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle has stopped completely. Once the engine has stopped, the brake servo,
power assisted steering and passive safety equipment such as air bags wi\
ll no longer operate.
The steering is locked when the key is removed.

Special features of petrol versions
SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
–

driving
for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
–

using leaded petrol;
–


u
sing oil or fuel additives which are
not approved by the manufacturer.
Or operating faults such as:
–

faulty
ignition system, running out of
fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
–

loss of power
,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by reg-
ularly taking your vehicle to your ap-
proved dealer at the intervals speci-
fied in your Maintenance Service
Document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter,
do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
continue to try and start the engine, but
contact an approved dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with a hot exhaust system.

Special features of diesel versions
SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with an injec-
tion pump which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Running out of fuel
If the tank has been completely
drained, the system must be reprimed
after the tank is refilled: see information
on the “Fuel tank” in Section 1 before
restarting the engine.Precautions to be taken in winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
–

ensure
that the battery is always fully
charged,
–

a
lways keep the diesel tank rela-
tively full to avoid water vapour con-
densing in it and accumulating at the
bottom of the tank.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with a hot exhaust system.
