Driving in automatic mode
Each time the ignition is switched on, automatic mode is selected by default (letter A on the display).
The vehicle is controlled using the ac- celerator and the brake.
Gears will change automatically at the correct moment and at a suitable engine speed because automatic mode takes into consideration the road sur- face and the chosen driving style.
You may modify the gear selected auto- matically by moving the lever forwards or backwards (except if there is a risk of under- or overrevving).
The oil level in the automatic gear- box system reservoir varies ac- cording to use. Adding oil is strictly forbidden (except by qualified ap-
proved network personnel).
QUICkSHIFT GEARBOX (3/5)
If the engine is being overrevved or underevved, the system will select the optimal gear.
Changing mode
You can change mode at any time by pushing the lever to the left. This switches mode without changing gear.
Driving in manual mode
Using the selector lever
Pushing the lever repeatedly allows you to change gears manually.
– to change up a gear: push the lever
forwards
– to change down a gear: push the lever backwards
– to change to neutral: with the brake
pedal depressed (indicator light 4 will come on if you forget), push the lever towards the right
Note: when the vehicle is stationary (braking, red light, etc.), the system au- tomatically switches to the most suita- ble gear.
Accelerating and overtaking
To obtain maximum vehicle perform- ance, in automatic or manual mode se- lected, quickly depress the accelerator pedal beyond the kickdown point.
This will activate the kickdown func- tion allowing you to change down to the most suitable gear.
Audible warning
If you leave the vehicle with the engine
running when in gear, an audible warn- ing will sound. You must switch to neu- tral before leaving the vehicle.

QUICkSHIFT GEARBOX (5/5)
The vehicle will not start
If you cannot start the engine and if the battery is not discharged (display lit up):
– switch on the ignition,
– select neutral,
– push the vehicle or roll it down a suf
- ficiently steep slope. Then push the selector lever forwards.
The optimum gear for starting the engine will then be automatically se- lected.
Note: never attempt this manoeuvre in reverse.
Towing the vehicle
Refer to the information on “Towing” in Section 5.
Operating faults
‘Check gearbox’
If, when driving, the message “Check
gearbox” and the © warning light appear on the instrument panel, this in- dicates a fault.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon as possible.
‘Gearbox overheating’
If you keep the vehicle on a slope for too long without applying the brakes or handbrake, the message “Gearbox overheating” will appear along with the
© warning light.
Depress the brake pedal or apply the handbrake.

iThe air flow is shared between the side window and wind- screen demisting vents and the pas- senger footwells.
This is the recommended position for the best temperature in cold weather.
FThe air flow is directed mainly towards the footwells.
GThe air flow is directed mainly towards all the air vents and the passenger footwells.
This is the recommended position for the best temperature in hot weather.
ôThe air flow is directed mainly towards all the air vents.Note: for rapid demisting, use the air conditioning (depending on the ve-
hicle), position controls A, B and D

Rear screen de-icing/
demisting
With the engine running, press but-
ton E. The operating tell-tale comes on.
This function permits rapid demisting/ de-icing of the rear screen and de-icing of the door mirrors (on equipped vehi- cles).
To exit this function, press button E again.
Demisting automatically stops.
Air recirculation operation
(isolation of the passenger
compartment)
Turn control D towards symbol á: air is taken from the passenger com- partment and is recirculated, with no air being taken from outside the vehicle.
Air recirculation is for:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter
- nal atmosphere (driving in polluted areas, etc.);
– bringing the passenger compartment
to the desired temperature as quickly as possible.
HEATING, AIR CONDITIONING (4/4)
Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation form- ing on the side windows and wind- screen, and discomfort due to the use of non-renewed air in the pas- senger compartment.
We therefore advise you to return to normal mode (external air) as soon as the air recirculation function is
no longer required, by turning con-
trol D.

Air conditioning: information and advice on use
AIR CONDITIONING: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in fuel consumption (especially when driving in town) when the air conditioning is operating. For vehi- cles fitted with manual air condition- ing, switch off the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption and therefore helping to preserve the environment:
Drive with the air vents open and the windows closed.
If the vehicle has been parked in the sun, open the doors for a few moments to let the hot air escape before starting the engine.
Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Service Booklet for your vehicle for the in- spection frequency.
Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap- proved dealer in the event of an op- erating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demist
- ing or air conditioning perform- ance. This may be caused by the passenger compartment filter cartridge becoming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced.
Check that the controls are set correctly and that the fuses are sound. Otherwise, switch off the system.
Do not open the refriger- ant fluid circuit. The fluid may damage eyes or skin.
Notes
Presence of water under the ve- hicle. After prolonged use of the air conditioning system, it is normal for water to be present under the ve- hicle. This is caused by condensa- tion.
Do not add anything to the vehicle’s ventilation circuit (for example, to remove bad odours).
There is a risk of damage or of fire.
