SUNROOF (where provided)
The large electric sunroof comprises two panes of glass;
the front one is mobile and the rear one fixed. These are
equipped with two sun blinds (front and rear) that can be
moved manually. With the sunroof closed, the blinds can
be placed in any position. To open the blinds: grip han-
dle C-fig. 49, and move the blind to the required posi-
tion by following the direction of movement shown by the
arrow. To close it, repeat the same operation in the op-
posite direction. The sunroof can only be operated when
the ignition key is on MAR. Controls A-B fig. 49 on the
front courtesy light panel control sunroof opening/closing.
To o p e n
Press and hold down button B-fig. 49. The front glass pan-
el will move into the spoiler position; press button B once
again and hold down for more than half a second to auto-
matically move the sunroof to an intermediate position
(“Comfort” position). Pressing the opening control once
again and holding it down for more than half a second will
move the sunroof automatically to the end of travel; the sun-
roof glass can be stopped at any time in an intermediate
position by pressing the button once again.
IMPORTANT During the sunroof opening operation, the
blind will follow the movement of the sunroof.

To close
When the sunroof is in the fully opened position, press
button A-fig. 49; if the button is held down for more than
half a second, the front sunroof glass will automatically
move to the intermediate position (“Comfort” position).
If the button is pressed once again and held down for more
than half a second the sunroof will move to the spoiler po-
sition. Pressing the close button once again will complete-
ly close the sunroof.
fig. 49L0E0108m
If transverse roof racks are fitted use the sun-
roof only in the “spoiler” position. Do not open
the sunroof in the presence of snow or ice: it
may be damaged.
When leaving the car, always remove the key
from the ignition device to avoid the risk of
injury due to accidental operation of the sun-
roof; it presents a risk to those left on board: in-
correct use of the sunroof can be dangerous. Before
operation, always check that no-one is at risk of be-
ing injured by the moving sunroof or by objects get-
ting caught and dragged by it.
Anti-pinch device
The sunroof is fitted with an anti-pinch safety system that
detects the presence of an obstacle during sunroof clos-
ing travel and cuts in by stopping and reversing the sun-
roof travel. IMPORTANT During the sunroof closing manoeuvre the sun
blind will remain in the “fully open” position. If you would
like to close it, this must be done manually.

STARTING UP AND DRIVING153

Accessories fitted on longitudinal bars
Remove any accessories such as: longitudinal bars, ski
racks, luggage rack, from the roof if they are not being
used. These accessories decrease aerodynamic penetration
and have a negative effect on fuel consumption. It is bet-
ter to use a trailer to transport particularly bulky objects.
Electrical devices
Use electrical devices only for the amount of time needed.
The heated rear windscreen, additional headlights, wind-
screen wipers and heater fan need a considerable amount
of energy; increasing the requirement of current increas-
es fuel consumption (up to +25% in the urban cycle).
Climate control
The climate control system leads to higher fuel consump-
tion (up to +20% on average): use air vents only when the
external temperature allows.
Spoilers
The use of non-certified aerodynamic items may adversely
affect air drag and fuel consumption levels.DRIVING STYLE
Starting
Do not warm the engine up with the car standing: the en-
gine warms up very slowly in these conditions, increas-
ing fuel consumption and emissions. It is advisable to start
off immediately and slowly keeping the engine speed
down: the engine will warm up much faster this way.
Unnecessary actions
Avoid revving up when starting at traffic lights or before
stopping the engine. The latter action, like doubling the
clutch, is unnecessary and causes increased fuel con-
sumption and pollution.
Gear selection
Use a higher gear as soon as traffic and road conditions
allow. Using a low gear for faster acceleration will increase
fuel consumption.
In the same way improper use of a high gear increases
fuel consumption, emissions and engine wear.
Top speed
Fuel consumption considerably increases as speed in-
creases. Keep your speed as even as possible, avoiding un-
necessary braking and acceleration, which cause excessive
fuel consumption and increased emissions.
