Check  the  condition  of  the  wiper  blades. You are responsible for their  service life:
– they  must  remain  clean:  clean  the  blades,  windscreen  and  rear  screen  regularly  with  soapy  water;
–  do  not  use  them  when  the  wind- screen or rear screen are dry;
–  free them from the windscreen or  rear  screen  when  they  have  not  been used for a long time.In  all  cases,  replace  them  as  soon  as they begin to lose efficiency: ap- 
proximately once a year.Before  using  the  rear  wiper,  check  that no object obstructs the travel of  the blade.Do not use the wiper arm to open or  close the tailgate.

As a guide, this type of cleaning should  take up to 20 minutes.
If  the ©  warning  light  comes  on,  accompanied  by  the  message  “Check  antipollution”,  consult  an  approved  Dealer as soon as possible.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel  engines  are  fitted  with  injection  equipment which prevents the engine  speed being exceeded irrespective of  the gear selected.
Special features of diesel versions fitted with a particle filter
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  con- tact with the hot exhaust system.
When  driving,  depending  on  the  grade  of  fuel  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.
Warning light 
1 Ü comes on to indi- cate a filter saturation risk.
To  clean  the  particle  filter,  for  60  miles  (100  km)  after  the  message  appears,  drive  at  an  average  speed  of  at  least  24  mph  (40  km/h),  where  suitable  traf- fic  conditions  and  the  speed  limit  will  allow,  until  the  warning  light  goes  out.  You may need to restart the operation if  the vehicle has to stop before the warn- ing light goes out.

When  stationary,  and  de- pending on the slope and/or  vehicle load, it may be nec- essary  to  pull  up  the  hand- brake at least two extra notches and  engage  a  gear  (1st  or  reverse  gear)  
for  vehicles  with  a  manual  gearbox  or position P for vehicles with an au- tomatic gearbox.
Make  sure  that  the  hand- brake  is  properly  released  when  driving  (red  indicator  light  off),  otherwise  over- heating may occur.
An  impact  to  the  under- side  of  the  vehicle  while  manoeuvring  (e.g.:  strik- ing  a  post,  raised  kerb  or  other  street  furniture)  may  result  in  
damage  to  the  vehicle  (e.g.:  defor- mation of an axle).
To  avoid  any  risk  of  accident,  have  your  vehicle  checked  by  an  ap- proved Dealer.

Advice: antipollution, fuel economy and driving
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (1/3)
Your  vehicle  complies  with  criteria  for  recycling and recovering vehicles at the  end of their service life which will come  into force in 2015.
Some parts of your vehicle have there- fore  been  designed  to  facilitate  future  recycling.
These parts are easy to remove so that  they can be recovered and reprocessed  by recycling companies.
By  virtue  of  its  design,  moderate  fuel  consumption  and  initial  settings,  your  
vehicle  also  conforms  to  current  anti- pollution  regulations.  The  manufac- turer  is  actively  striving  to  reduce  pol- lutant  exhaust  gas  emissions  and  to  save  energy.  But  the  fuel  consumption  of your vehicle and the level of pollutant  exhaust gas emissions are also your re- sponsibility. Ensure that it is maintained  and used correctly.
Aiding fuel economy
Depending  on  the  vehicle,  in  order  to  optimise consumption, an indicator light  on the instrument panel will inform you  of the best moment to upshift or down- shift gears:
ä upshift a gear;
æ downshift a gear.
Maintenance
It is important to remember that failure to  respect  antipollution  regulations  could  lead to legal action being taken against  the vehicle owner. In addition, replacing  engine, fuel supply system and exhaust  components with parts other than those  originally  recommended  by  the  manu- facturer  may  alter  your  vehicle  so  that  it  no  longer  complies  with  antipollution  regulations.
Have  your  vehicle  adjusted  and  checked  by  an  approved  dealer,  in  ac- cordance  with  the  instructions  given  in  your  Maintenance  Service  Booklet:  they  will  have  all  the  equipment  nec- essary for ensuring that your vehicle is  maintained to its original standard.
Engine adjustments– ignition:  this  does  not  require  ad- justment.
– 
spark plugs: for optimum fuel econ- 
omy,  efficiency  and  performance  the  specifications  laid  down  by  our  Design  Department  must  be  strictly  applied.
If the spark plugs have to be changed,  use the make, type and gap specified  for your vehicle’s engine. Contact an  approved dealer for this.
– 
idle:  this  does  not  require  adjust- ment.
– 
air filter, diesel filter: a clogged ele- ment  reduces  performance.  It  must  be replaced.
