accompanied by a warning message
in the screen (if a display screen isfitted).
On a new vehicle, the first particlefilter regeneration operations may beaccompanied by a "burnt" smell, which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of thevehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the emission of water vapour atthe exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the ser vicin
g and warranty booklet and according to your engine.

interval for this component. Depending on the environment
(e.g. dustyatmosphere) and the use of the vehicle(e.g. city driving), replace them twice as oftenif necessary.y
A clogged passenger compartment filter may have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generateundesirable odours. When carr
ying out work on the battery, refer
to the "Practical information" section for
details of the precautions to be taken before
disconnecting the battery and following its
