AUTOMATIc GEARBOX (continued)
Special circumstances
– If the bends and road surface do
not allow you to stay in automatic
mode (e.g. in the mountains), we
recommend that you change to
manual mode.
This will prevent the automatic gear-
box from changing gear 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.
– v ehicles 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 starting.
Parking the vehicle
When 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.
check that the parking brake is prop-
erly applied (refer to the information on
the “Parking brake” in Section 2).

tYre InFLA tIOn KIt (continued)
Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, use the tyre inflation kit.– Retrieve compressor 4 and bottle 1
from rear storage compartment C (in
vehicles with a normal chassis) or D
(in vehicles with a long chassis);
– unroll inflation hose 8 and lead 9 lo-
cated under the compressor and in-
flation hose 10 . Attach the bottle to
its mounting 3 and screw inflation
hose 8 onto end piece 2.With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
–
unscrew the valve cap of the wheel
concerned and screw the inflation
hose 10 onto the valve;
– connect end piece 9 to one of the ve-
hicle’s accessories sockets (refer to
the information on the “Accessories
socket” in Section 3) then press
switch 7 to inflate the tyre to the rec-
ommended pressure (refer to the
label located on the edge of the driv-
er’s door);
– After a maximum of 5 minutes, stop
inflating and read the pressure on
pressure gauge 6 . To adjust the
pressure if necessary: continue in -
flating to increase the pressure or
press button 5 to decrease it.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the ve-
hicle but contact an approved dealer.
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.

ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from
traffic and on a level sur -
face where it will not slip (if neces -
sary, place a solid support under the
jack base).
Apply the parking brake and engage
a gear (first or reverse, or P for auto-
matic transmissions).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.Vehicles equipped with a jack
and wheelbrace
Put together wheelbrace 1 using the
tools stored in the tool kit: refer to the
information on the “Tool kit” on the pre-

To prevent any risk of injury
or damage to the vehicle,
only crank the jack until the
wheel you are replacing is
a maximum of 3 centimetres off the
ground.
Position the jack horizontally, with the
jack head positioned at the same height
as support 2 provided in the lower sec-
tion of the bodywork, closest to the
wheel concerned.
Start cranking up jack 3 by hand to
align the base plate (which should be
pushed slightly under the vehicle).
Place a plank of wood under the base
plate if on soft ground.
Turn the wheelbrace to lift the wheel off
the ground.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a
jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain
these from your approved dealer.
