Driving
Once a cruising speed is stored and the cruise control function is active, you may lift your foot off the accelera- tor pedal.
Important: you are never- theless advised to keep your feet close to the pedals in order to react if neces- sary.
The system is designed in such a way that it is possible to detect a dif- ference between the stored speed and the speed shown on the instru- ment panel.
Activating cruise control
At a steady speed (above 20 mph
(30 km/h) approximately) press switch 2
(+) or 3 (-): the speed is stored.
Cruise control activation is confirmed
when indicator light 6 is lit up in green
in addition to indicator light 7.
Switching on
Press switch 1 on the side showing
Ï.
Indicator light
7 on the instrument panel lights up to indicate that the cruise con- trol function is in operation.When the function is activated, the message ‘Cruise control’ appears on the instrument panel accompanied by dashes.

CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (3/4)
Exceeding the cruising speed
In the event of an emergency
The cruising speed may be exceeded at any time by depressing the accelera- tor pedal. Whilst the speed is being ex- ceeded, the cruising speed displayed on the instrument panel flashes.
Cruising speed cannot be main- tained
In some driving conditions (for exam- ple when driving down a steep gradi-
ent), the system is unable to maintain the cruising speed: the speed on the in- strument panel information display will flash to inform you of this situation.Varying the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by pressing repeatedly or continuously on:
– switch
2 (+) to increase the speed;
– switch
3 (-) to decrease the speed.
The cruise control function is in no way linked to the braking system.

Switching off the function
Press switch 1. If you do this, the speed is not memorised.
The instrument panel green indicator
lights Ï and ¦ go out, con- firming that the function is deactivated.
Recalling the cruising speed
If a speed has been stored, it is possi-
ble to recall it by pressing switch 5 (R), on condition that you are driving faster than 20 mph (30 km/h) and that you are sure that the driving conditions are suitable (traffic, road surface condition, weather conditions, etc.).
Pressing switches 2 (+) or 3 (-) re- activates the cruise control func- tion without taking into account the memorised speed: it is the speed at which the vehicle is moving that is taken into account.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is interrupted when you:
– the switch
4 (O);
– the brake pedal;
– the clutch pedal or shift into neutral
if the vehicle has an automatic gear- box.
In all three cases, the cruising speed is stored.
Standby is confirmed when indicator
light ¦ goes out.
CRUISE CONTROL/SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (4/4)
Putting the cruise control on standby or switching it off does not cause a rapid reduction in speed: you must brake by depressing the brake pedal.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (2/3)
1
Driving in manual modeWith selector lever 1 in position D, move the lever to the left.Shifting the lever repeatedly allows you to change gears manually:
– To move down through the gears,
push the lever backwards;
– to move up through the gears, push
the lever forwards.
The gear selected is displayed on the instrument panel.
Special circumstances
– Snow position: if you are driving on ground where you are likely to skid
(snow, mud, etc.), press switch 5 and
operating tell-tale 6 will come on.Once these special driving con- ditions no longer apply, exit this function by pressing switch 5 again. Operating tell-tale light 6 goes out. –
If the road contour and bends in the road do not allow you to stay in automatic mode (e.g.: in mountain- ous areas), it is recommended that you switch to manual mode.This will prevent the automatic gear- box from changing gears repeatedly when climbing, and permit engine braking on long descents.
–
In cold weather, start the engine and wait a few seconds before moving the selector lever from posi- tion P or N and engaging it in D or R to prevent the engine stalling.
–
Vehicles not fitted with traction control: on a slippery surface or surface with a low level of adhesion, change to manual mode and select second gear (or even third) before starting the engine to avoid wheel- spin when accelerating.
65
In very cold weather, the system may prevent the gears from being shifted in manual mode until the gearbox reaches the right tempera- ture.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3/3)
Parking the vehicleWhen the vehicle is stopped, move the lever to position P while keeping your foot on the brake pedal: the gearbox is in neutral and the drive wheels are me- chanically locked by the driveshaft.Apply the handbrake.
When setting off, if the lever is locked in position P even though you are de- pressing the brake pedal, the lever can be released manually. To do this, unclip
the base of the lever, press recess 7, visible on the gear lever gaiter, and the unlocking button on the lever.
Operating faults
– when driving, if the ‘check gearbox’ message appears on the instrument panel, it indicates a fault.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon as possible;
–
when driving, if the message “gear- box overheating” appears on the in- strument panel, avoid leaving the lever in position D (or R) where traf- fic conditions allow: always return to position N when stationary.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon as possible;
–
If a vehicle with an automatic gear- box breaks down, refer to the infor- mation on “Towing” in Section 5.

For safety reasons, do not switch off the ignition before the vehicle has come to a complete standstill.
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.

25302Message 1“Oil level OK”
The message “oil” is
displayed, alternating
with dashes
No displayMessage 2“Adjust oil level”
If the level is at minimum: depending on the vehicle, the message “top up oil level” or “oil” appears on the display, al-
ternating with dashes and the © warning light on the instrument panel comes on: message 2.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as possible.
Engine oil level: general information
The display only warns the driver if the oil level is at the minimum level. It does not inform the driver that the oil level has exceeded the maximum level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
Minimum oil level warning on instru- ment panel
When the ignition is switched on, if the level is above the minimum level, the message “oil ok” or “oil level correct” is shown on the display for approximately 15 seconds.For more information, press the trip computer readout button: the message
“oil level” will be shown on the display with squares which are replaced by dashes when the level drops.
To advance to trip computer reading, press the button again.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for lubrication and cooling of moving parts and it is normal to top up the level be- tween oil changes.
However, contact your approved Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being consumed every 600 miles (1,000 km) after the running in period.
Check the oil level at regular inter- vals and before any long journey to avoid the risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the ve- hicle on level ground, after the engine has been switched off for some time.
The dipstick must be used to read the exact oil level and make sure that the maximum level has not been exceeded (risk of engine damage). Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only alerts the driver when the oil level is at its min- imum.
