Practical information


TORCH

A removable torch, incorporated in
the wall of the boot, carries out two
functions:


- boot light,

- torch.
The boot light operates automatically
when the boot is opened.
The torch operates with NiMH type
storage batteries.
Observe the polarities when fi tting
these storage batteries.
Using the torch

Remove it from its location by pulling
from the top.
Press the switch, located on the back
of the torch, to switch it on or off.
The retaining clip allows you to position
the torch for precise use (for example,
lighting while changing a wheel).


Storing the torch

positioning the lower part in its location.
If it is not engaged correctly it may not
charge and may not come on when the
boot is opened.
Putting the torch back in place

Practical information

CREW CAB

Bench seat

The crew cab consists of a 3-seat
bench, located in row 2, the one-piece
back of which is solid with the "load
retainer" grille.
Access to the rear seats is via the
sliding side door.


Head restraints and seat belts

The three seats are equipped with
inertia reel seat belts. The seat belts
of the side seats are solid with the
panels, whereas the seat belt of the
centre seat is solid with the back of the
bench seat.
Each seat has a head restraint bolted
onto the load retaining grille and which
can be removed.
Do not store a head restraint inside the
vehicle unless it is stowed or fi xed to a
support.
Do not drive with rear passengers
without fi rst bolting the head restraints
in place.


Placing the bench seat in
the fully folded position


- If necessary, move the front seats
forward and fasten the strap of the
seat belt of the centre seat.

- Check that the seat belt straps and
buckles are positioned correctly
along the side panels, to ensure
that the sliding of the seat back is
not hindered.

- Release the seat back using the

Practical information



Putting the bench seat back in
the seat position


- In a single movement: take hold of
the red strap and pull the assembly
horizontally towards the rear. Guide
the movement until the feet of the
bench seat lock on the fl oor.

- Raise the seat back.
The control A
locks automatically.

- Check that the bench is locked on
the fl oor correctly once it has been
returned to the seat position.
Do not let the assembly fall sharply.


Good practice

There is no need to assist, guide or
support using the arm which remains
free during the tilting movement.
The rear seat belt casings are not
designed for securing the load
transported. Use the stowing rings on
the fl oor only.
The bench seat of the crew cab is not
suitable for the installation of a child
seat.

- Using the same hand, fold the seat
back and the associated grille onto
the seat cushion.

- Take hold of the red strap
(like a handle) and lift and
assembly vertically, guiding the
movement to the fully folded
position.
The raised seat rests against the backs
of the seats of row 1.
