OPENING REAR SCREEN
Vehicle with opening rear
screen
The rear screen is locked and unlocked
at the same time as the doors.
To open
Press button 1.
Lift the rear screen by the base of
screen wiper 2. To close
Hold the base of screen wiper
2 and
fold back the rear screen until it locks
in position.
Driving with the rear screen
open may be unpleasant
for passengers as exhaust
gases may enter the pas -
senger compartment. This must
only be done over short distances
or when transporting bulky ob -
jects without having to open the
tailgate. In that case, close the other
windows and the sunroof and switch
the ventilation to medium or max-
imum power , as this will help to
prevent exhaust gas from entering
the passenger compartment.

ROOF BARS
Storage position
To make the vehicle as aerodynamic
as possible, roof bars 1 must be stored
right at the rear of the vehicle.
Moving the bars
On each side, pull lever 2 inwards to re-
lease it (movement A).
Slide bar 1 to the required position. On
each side, push back lever 2 to secure
the bar (movement B). Check that it is
correctly locked.
Loading
The load should be evenly distributed
and must not exceed the maximum
permissible weight per bar indicated
on each bar (refer to the information on
“Weights” in Section 6).
Ensure that any objects and/or acces -
sories being transported are properly
secured. Straps can be fed through
recess 3.
Likewise, the two bars must be suffi -
ciently spaced to prevent the load from
rocking or falling off the bars.

Removing the bars
It may sometimes be necessary to
remove the roof bars. To do this:
– unscrew section 5 using screw 4;
– unlock the bars using levers 2 and
slide them backwards to remove
them;
– refit section 5.
For safety reasons, always ensure that
the roof bars are properly secured if
they are being stored inside the vehicle.
Refitting the bars
Proceed in the reverse order to re -
moval.
Check the bars are correctly locked in
position.
Precautions during use
Using the sunroof (on equipped
vehicles) or the tailgate.
As a general rule, it is not advisable
to use the sunroof when there is a
load on the roof bars.
Before opening the sunroof or tail -
gate, check the objects and/or ac -
cessories (bike rack, roof box, etc.)
fitted to the roof bars: these must be
correctly positioned and secured, so
as not to hinder the operation of the
sunroof or luggage compartment lid.
Contact an approved dealer for de-
tails of possible conversions;

formation on how to fit roof bars and
conditions of use.
Please keep these instructions with
the rest of the vehicle documenta -
tion.
Maximum permissible load on

Use a soft cloth (or cotton wool).
If this does not clean it properly, use a
soft cloth (or cotton wool) slightly mois-
tened with soapy water and then wipe
clean with a soft damp cloth or cotton
wool.
Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry
cloth.
Cleaning products containing alco -
hol must not be used under any cir-
cumstances.

These must be kept clean.
Use products selected by our Technical
Department (Approved outlets) or
warm, soapy water and a sponge and
wipe with a dry cloth.
Detergents or dyes must not be used
under any circumstances.

Use soapy water.
Dab lightly (never rub) with a soft cloth,
rinse and remove the excess.
Solid or pasty stain
Carefully remove the excess solid or
pasty material immediately with a

Special instructions for sweets or
chewing gum
Put an ice cube on the stain to solidify
it, then proceed as for a solid stain.
A well-maintained vehicle will last
longer. It is therefore recommended to
maintain the interior of the vehicle regu-
larly.
A stain should always be dealt with
swiftly.
Whatever type of stain is on the trim,
use
cold (or warm) soapy water with
natural soap.
Detergents (washing-up liquid, pow -
dered products, alcohol-based prod-
ucts) should not be used.
Use a soft cloth.
Rinse and soak up the excess.
For further recommendations for
maintaining the interior, and/or for
any unsatisfactory results, please
see an authorised dealer.

ation when moving from loosening to
tightening and vice versa.

gency spare wheel disappears from the
instrument panel and/or the information
display). Refer to the information on the
“Tyre pressure monitor” in Section 2.

Vehicles fitted with an
emergency spare wheel
which is different to the
four other wheels:
– Never fit more than one emer -
gency spare wheel to the same
vehicle.
– Replace the emergency spare
wheel as soon as possible with
a wheel identical to the original
one.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle,
which must only be a temporary
measure, the driving speed must
not exceed the speed indicated
on the label on the wheel.
– Fitting an emergency spare
wheel may alter the way the ve -
hicle usually runs. Avoid sudden
acceleration or deceleration and
reduce your speed when corner-
ing.
– If you need to use snow chains,
fit the emergency spare wheel to
the rear axle and check the tyre
pressure.
