BATTERY: troubleshooting (2/2)
Starting the vehicle using the
battery from another vehicle
If you have to use the battery from an-
other vehicle to start, obtain suitable
jump leads (with a large cross section)
from an approved dealer or, if you al-
ready have jump leads, ensure that
they are in perfect condition.
The two batteries must have an iden-
tical nominal voltage of 12 volts. The
battery supplying the current should
have a capacity (amp-hours, Ah) which
is at least the same as that of the dis-
charged battery.
Ensure that there is no risk of contact
between the two vehicles (risk of short
circuiting when the positive terminals
are connected) and that the discharged
battery is properly connected. Switch
off your vehicle ignition.
Start the engine of the vehicle supply-
ing the current and run it at an interme-
diate engine speed. Connect the positive (+) lead
A to (+)
terminal 1 of the discharged battery,
then to (+) terminal 2 of the battery sup-
plying the current.
Connect the negative (–) lead B to (–)
terminal 3 of the battery supplying the
current and then to (–) terminal 4 of the
discharged battery.
Start the engine as normal. As soon as
it is running, disconnect leads A and B
in the reverse order (4-3-2-1)
Check that there is no con-
tact between leads A and B
and that the positive lead A
is not touching any metal
parts on the vehicle supplying the
current.

WIPER BLADES
Replacing windscreen wiper
blades 1
– With the ignition off, lift wiper arm 3.
– Turn the blade horizontally (move-ment A).
– Press tab 2 and slide the wiper blade
downwards (movement D) until
hook 4 on the wiper arm is released.
– Slide the blade (movement C) then
lift it (movement B) to release it.Replacing the rear screen wiper
blades 5
– With the ignition off, lift wiper arm 6.
– Turn blade 5 until some resistance is
met (movement E).
– Pull the blade to release it (move- ment F).
Refitting windscreen wiper blades
To refit the wiper blade, proceed in the
reverse order to removal. Make sure
that the blade is correctly locked in po-
sition.
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– 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 frosty weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the motor
overheating).
– Check the condition of the wiper
blades.
Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).
Whilst changing the blade, take care
not to drop the arm onto the window
after it has been removed as this
may break the window.

TOWING: breakdown (1/3)
Before any towing, put the gears into
neutral (neutral position for vehicles
equipped with a manual gearbox or N
position for vehicles equipped with an
automatic gearbox).
Unlock the steering column; the igni-
tion key must be in “M” position (ig-
nition) to enable signalling (“Stop”
lights, hazard warning lights, etc.).
Always switch on the lights when
driving at night.
Release the parking brake.
It is also essential to observe the towing
regulations imposed by current legisla-
tion in your country. Please contact an
authorised dealer.
Front and rear towing pointsOnly use the front 1 and rear 2
towing points.
Depending on the vehicle, unclip the
cover 3 by inserting a flat tool under the
cover.
When the engine is stop-
ped, steering and braking
assistance are not opera-
tional.
Do not remove the key from
the ignition when the vehi-
cle is being towed.
– Use a rigid towing bar. If a rope or cable is used (where the law allows
this), the vehicle being towed must be able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is not fit to be driven.
– Avoid accelerating or braking suddenly when towing, as this may result
in damage being caused to the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is advisable not to exceed 30 mph (50 km/h).
– Do not push the vehicle if the steering column is locked.
These towing points may only be used
for towing: never use them for lifting the
vehicle directly or indirectly.
