TrIP cOMPUTer: operating fault messages (1/2)
These appear with the ú warning light and mean that you should drive very carefully to an approved dealer as soon
as possible. If you fail to follow this recommendation, you risk damagin\
g your vehicle.
They disappear when the display selection key is pressed or after several seconds and are stored in the computer log. The
ú
warning light stays on. Examples of operating fault messages are given i\
n the following pages.

Tyre pressure monitor
TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR
If the vehicle is equipped with the func-
tion, this system monitors the tyre pres-
sure.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure.
The system informs the driver that the
tyres are sufficiently inflated and warns
if they are underinflated or if there is a
leak.
This function is an addi -
tional driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vig -
ilance or the responsibility of the
driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.
The tyre pressures can be adjusted
when cold (refer to the information on
“Tyre pressure” for the values).
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, the normal
pressures must be increased by 0.2 to
0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITOR
Emergency spare wheel
The emergency spare wheel has no
sensor, and cannot be recognised by
the system.
When it is fitted in the place of another
wheel, the system then detects an op-
erating fault.
Replacing wheels/tyres
This system requires specific equip -
ment (wheels, hubcaps, etc.).
Contact an approved dealer to find out
about accessories compatible with the
system and which may be purchased
from the brand’s accessory outlets: the
use of any other accessory could affect
the correct operation of the system.
Tyre repair products
Because the valves are specially de -
signed, use only products approved by
our Technical Department.
Display
Display 1 on the instrument panel in -
forms you of any tyre pressure faults
(flat tyre, punctured tyre, system fault,
etc.).

all four tyres to “motorway pressure”
(refer to the label located on the label
on the edge of the driver’s door).
“Wheel sensors missing”
One wheel A disappears, indicating
that the sensor on this wheel is missing
or faulty (e.g. if the emergency spare
wheel is fitted).
“Stop! Tyre puncture”
Replace the wheel B concerned or call
your approved dealer.
This message appears along with the

Operating faults
In certain conditions involving readjust-
ment of tyre pressures, the fault mes -
sage may continue to be displayed (for
approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes
after the vehicle has stopped).

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.

Puncture
Emergency spare wheel
Puncture/eMerGencY SPAre WHeeL (1/2)
In the event of a puncture,
depending on the vehicle,
you will have:
An emergency spare wheel or tyre in -
flation kit (refer to the information on the
following pages).
If you have an emergency spare wheel,
you need to use tool A comprising
ratchet spanner 2 and end-piece 1.
nB: using other tools could damage the
mechanism)
These components are stored in the
tool kit in the luggage compartment
(refer to the information on the “Took
kit” in Section 5). Ensure that the end piece 1 is securely
attached to the ratchet spanner
2.
The ratchet spanner has one direction
for tightening and another for loosen -
ing. Reverse the direction of the oper -
ation when moving from loosening to
tightening and vice versa.
emergency spare wheel B
It is located under the vehicle.
– In the luggage compartment, lift
cover 3;
– remove the blanking cover;
– use tool A and turn it until the wheel
retaining cable unwinds and the
wheel drops to the ground; –
stand the wheel up outside the vehi-
cle;
– press on lock 4 and turn it a quarter
of a turn
– run the retaining cable across the
wheel rim and release the wheel;
– depending on the vehicle, take out
the shim from inside the wheel rim.
n ote: depending on the vehicle, the
shim on the top of the emergency spare
wheel should only be repositioned with
this emergency spare wheel; it should
not be used with the punctured wheel.

t o refit the emergency spare
wheel
Proceed in the reverse order.
– stand the punctured wheel up, with
valve 5 towards you;
– run the cable across and reposition
lock 4;
– lie the wheel down, with valve 5
facing the ground;
– in the luggage compartment, use the
tool to completely to rewind the re -
taining cable. Advice
Check the pressure of the emergency
spare wheel regularly.
note:
The bolts for the aluminium wheel may
be used to secure the steel emergency
spare wheel.
using the emergency spare
wheel
The “tyre pressure monitor” function
does not monitor the emergency spare
wheel (the wheel replaced by the emer-
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.
Special note
Using an emergency spare wheel may
disrupt certain functions (automatic
gearbox, etc.).
If the emergency spare
wheel has been stored
for several years, have it
checked by your Dealer to
ensure that it is safe to use.

5
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.

The jack is designed for
wheel changing purposes
only. It should never be
used for repairs or gaining
access to the underside of the ve -
hicle.
Do not leave the tools unsecured inside the vehicle as they may come
loose under braking. After use, check that all the tools are correctly
clipped into the tool kit, then position it correctly in its housing: risk of
injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool kit, only use these bolts for the emergency
spare wheel: refer to the label affixed to the emergency spare wheel.
The jack is designed for wheel changing purposes only. Under no circumstances
should it be used for carrying out repairs underneath the vehicle or to gain access
to the underside of the vehicle.
