AUTOMATIC LOCKING WHEN DRIVING
Operating principle
After the vehicle is started, the system
automatically locks the doors once your
speed reaches approximately 5 mph
(7 km/h).
Activating/deactivating the
function
To activate: with the vehicle at a
standstill and the engine running, press
the switch 1 until a beep sounds.
To deactivate: with the vehicle at a
standstill and the engine running, press
the switch 1 until a beep sounds.
If you decide to keep the
doors locked when you
are driving, remember that
it may be more difficult for
those assisting you to gain access
to the passenger compartment in
the event of an emergency.
Operating faults
If you notice an operating fault (auto-
matic locking impossible), first check
that all doors are correctly locked. If
they are correctly locked and the fault
is still present, contact an approved
Dealer.
Also make sure that locking has not
been inadvertently deactivated.
If this is the case, reactivate it.

SEAT BELTS (2/4)
To fasten
Unwind the belt slowly and smoothly
and ensure that buckle 4 locks into
catch 6 (check that it is locked by pulling
on buckle 4). If it jams, allow it to return
before attempting to unwind it again. If
your seat belt is completely jammed,
pull slowly, but firmly so that just over
3 cm unwinds. Allow it to return slightly
before attempting to unwind it again.
If there is still a problem, contact an ap-
proved dealer.
Adjusting the front seat belt
height
(depending on the vehicle)
Move button 7 to select the position you
require so that chest strap 3 is worn as
described above.
Make sure that the seat belt is locked
in position correctly after you have ad-
justed it.
ßSeat belt reminder light
Depending on the vehicle, it
comes on when the engine is started
and if the driver’s and/or passenger’s
seat belt is not fastened. When the ve-
hicle is being driven, it comes on and a
beep sounds for approximately 2 min-
utes until the driver’s seat belt is fas-
tened.
Note: an object placed on the passen-
ger seat base may activate the warning
light in some cases.
Unlocking
Press button 5 on catch 6; the seat belt
is wound up by the inertia reel. Guide
the buckle to facilitate this manoeuvre.

1.21
The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both t\
he
airbags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection system.\

It is therefore essential to wear the seat belt at all times. If seat be\
lts are
not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the\

event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial\
injuries
occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are \
always
possible with airbags.
If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pre-
tensioners and air bags are not always triggered. Impacts to the undersi\
de of the
vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these \
systems.
– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the
driver or passenger air bag system (air bag, electronic unit, wiring, e\
tc.), except
by qualified personnel from our Network.
– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidenta\
l trig- gering of the system which could cause injury, only qualified personnel from
our Network may work on the air bag system.
– As a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle \
has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.
– When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and\
hand over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal o\
f the gas generator(s).
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructe\
d in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent
the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when\
the air bag inflates.
ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (3/5)
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Brake as little as possible. If you an-ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad-
vance, you may then simply release
the accelerator pedal.
– Do not try to maintain the same speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on the level. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
On versions with an automatic gear-
box, it is preferable to keep the gear
lever in position D.
Vehicles with 4x4 (4WD) trans-
mission
On flat, level ground, with the vehi-
cle unladen, you are recommended
to start in second gear.
Driving advice, Eco-driving
Behaviour
– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive with a light right foot.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in- termediate gears.
You should always use the highest gear possible.
Driving problems
On the driver’s side, only
use mats specially adapted
for the vehicle and attached
to prefitted devices. Check regularly
to make sure they are secure. Do
not overlay several mats.
Risk of pedals jamming .

MAINTENANCE AND ANTIPOLLUTION ADVICE
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 of the parts on your vehicle have
been designed to be recycled later.
These parts are easily removable in
order to be collected and reprocessed
in recycling networks.
Furthermore, by virtue of its design,
moderate fuel consumption and initial
settings, your vehicle also conforms
to current anti-pollution regulations.
The manufacturer is actively striving
to reduce pollutant exhaust gas emis-
sions and to save energy. However,
the fuel consumption of your vehicle
and the level of pollutant exhaust gas
emissions are also your responsibility.
Ensure that it is maintained and used
correctly.Maintenance
It is important to remember that fail-
ure to respect anti-pollution regulations
could lead to legal action being taken
against the vehicle owner.
In addition, replacing engine, fuel
supply system and exhaust compo-
nents with parts other than those origi-
nally recommended by the manufac-
turer may alter your vehicle so that it
no longer complies with anti-pollution
regulations.
Have your vehicle adjusted and
checked by an authorised dealer, in ac-
cordance with the instructions given in
your maintenance schedule: they will
have all the equipment necessary for
ensuring that your vehicle is maintained
to its original standard.
Engine adjustments
– Air filter, fuel filter: a choked ele-
ment will reduce efficiency. It must
be replaced.
– Idle speed: no adjustment is needed.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub-
stances may be released into the at-
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in-
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult an approved Dealer as soon as possi-
ble;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed until the light stops flashing. Contact
an authorised dealer as soon as pos-
sible.

3.7
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 vehicles fitted with air condition-
ing with no automatic mode, switch
off the system when it is not re-
quired.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the envi-
ronment
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. 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 per-
formance.
This may be caused by the pas-
senger compartment filter car-
tridge 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.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 vehi-
cle. This is caused by condensation.Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection
frequency.
