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.
th
is system only operates when:
-

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

c
ertain conditions of slope are met,
-

w
ith the driver’s door closed.
th

e hill start assist system cannot be
deactivated.
On an ascending slope, with the vehicle
stationar y, the vehicle is held for a
momentarily when you release the brake
pedal:
-

i
f you are in first gear or neutral with a
manual gearbox,
-

i
f you are in position E or M with an etg
electronic gearbox.Operation
On a descending slope, with the vehicle
stationar y and reverse gear engaged, the
vehicle is held momentarily when you
release the brake pedal.
Operating fault
If a fault in the system occurs, this
warning lamp comes on. Contact
a P

dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system
checked.
Do not exit the vehicle while it is being
held in the hill start assist phase.

Lane departure warning system
System which detects the unintended crossing of longitudinal traffic lane markings on the ground, using a camera that recognises both solid and
broken lines.
to i
mprove your safety, the camera analyses the image and then triggers a warning if the vehicle wanders over a lane marking (speed higher than
30
mph (50 km/h)).
th

is system is particularly suitable for motorways and dual carriageways.
th

e lane departure warning system
cannot in any circumstances replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver.
It is necessary to observe driving
regulations and take a break every
two
hours.
Activation
F Press this button, located on the steering wheel.
Detection
You are alerted by an audible signal and the
display of a warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
No alert is given if the direction
indicators are on and for around
20
seconds after they stop flashing.

Under-inflation detection
the system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
th

e system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
th
e under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance
on the part of the driver.
th
is system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
road holding, extends braking distances
and causes premature tyre wear,
particularly under arduous condition
(high loading, high speed, long journey).
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
Hazard warning lamps
Visual warning by means of the direction
indicators to alert other road users to a vehicle
breakdown, towing or accident.
F

P
ress this button, the direction indicators
flash.
th

ey can operate with the ignition off.
