c) Oil change interval Distance remaining until the next oil change (displayed in miles/kilometres and
months), then when the time nears, several scenarios are possible:
–
distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or one month: the mes-
sage “oil change due” is displayed;
–
distance/time remaining 0 km/milesor service date reached : the message
“change oil soon” is displayed, accompanied by the
Ê and ú warning lights.
The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
nB: depending on the vehicle, the interval between oil changes varies according to the driving style (frequent driving at low
speed, door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idle speed, towing a trailer etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change
can therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distan\
ce travelled.
The oil change intervals are independent of the vehicle’s maintenance schedule: please refer to your vehicle’s Maintenance
Service Booklet.
resetting: to reset the oil change interval, press and hold one of the display reset buttons for approximately 10 seconds until
the display shows the interval permanently.

cRUISE cONTROL - SPEED LIMITER: cruise control function (continued)
Adjusting the cruising speed
The cruising speed may be changed by
pressing repeatedly or continuously on:
– button 2 to increase the speed,
– button 5 to decrease the speed.
Exceeding the cruising speed
In the event of an emergency
The cruising speed may be exceeded
at any time by depressing the accel -
erator pedal. The speed flashes on the
instrument panel (trip computer and
warning system) while the speed is
being exceeded.
cruising speed cannot be
maintained
In some driving conditions (for example
when driving up or down a steep gradi -
ent), the system is unable to maintain
the cruising speed: the speed flashes
on the instrument panel to inform you
of this situation.
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.

AUTOMATIc GEARBOX (continued)
Driving in automatic mode
Select position D. In the majority of
traffic conditions, you will not have to
touch the gear selector lever again: the
gear will be changed automatically at
the right time and at the most suitable
engine speed because the automatic
system takes into account the vehicle
load and road contour and adjusts itself
to the particular driving style you have
chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic gear changes at a lower engine
speed.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.
Driving in manual mode
With the lever in position D, shift the
lever to the left-hand side.
Shifting lever 1 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 ratio engaged appears on the
instrument panel. Special cases
In certain driving conditions (e.g.:
engine protection, operation of the
electronic stability program: ESP), the
automated system may change the
gear automatically.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeu
-
vres, a gear change may be refused by
the automatic system: in this case the
gear display flashes for a few seconds
as a warning.
Using an emergency spare wheel may
disrupt the operation of the automatic
gearbox.

Engine oil level/Engine oil change
enGIne oIL LeVeL: general information
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.
o il change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and always
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil levelThe vehicle must be parked on level
ground and the engine should have
been stopped for a long time before -
hand to obtain an accurate reading.
Always use the dipstick to check the
exact oil level and ensure that the
maximum level is not exceeded (risk
of engine damage): refer to the infor-
mation on “Engine oil level/Topping-up/
Filling” on the following pages.
The instrument panel display only
alerts the driver when the oil level is at
its minimum.
Reading the level on the instrument
panel
When the ignition is switched on:
If the level is above the minimum, the
display indicates ‘Oil level OK’: mes -
sage 1.
For more information: press button 3.
The squares which appear on the dis -
play indicate the level. These squares
disappear as the oil level drops and
they are replaced by dashes.If the level is at the minimum, the ‘Top
Up Oil Level’ message appears on the
display. The squares are replaced by
dashes: message 2.
Indicator light
ú comes on at the
same time.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
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.

Changing a wheel
cHAnGInG A WHeeL (1/2)
Switch on the hazard warn-
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-
vious pages.
Use wheelbrace 1 to loosen the wheel
bolts. Fit it so that you press down -
wards rather than pulling upwards.

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.

use in winter
– chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly
forbidden.
chains must not be fitted to tyres
which are larger than those originally
fitted to the vehicle.
Fitting new tyres
tYreS (3/3)
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
Only certain chains can be fitted to
tyres. Consult an approved dealer.
Special note on versions fitted
with 18” wheels: snow chains
may not be fitted.
If you wish to fit snow chains, you
must use special equipment.
Consult your approved dealer.
– Snow or winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure
that your vehicle retains maximum
adhesion.
n B: We would point out that these
tyres may sometimes have:
– a direction of travel;
– a maximum speed index which
may be lower than the maximum
speed of your vehicle.
– Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation.
It is necessary to observe the speed
specified by current legislation.
These tyres must, as a minimum, be
fitted to the two wheels on the front
axle.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact an approved dealer
who will be able to advise you on
the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– it may change the way it handles
when cornering;
– it may cause the steering to be
heavy;
– It may affect the use of snow
chains.
