DISPLAYS AND INDICATORS (3/4)
Head-up display 7
The display details driving and navi-
gation information from the instrument
panel and the multifunction screen.
If fitted to the vehicle, this comes on
when the engine is started and is re-
tracted when the engine is switched off.
7You can adjust certain settings from the
multifunction screen: with the engine
running, access menu “System”,
“Display” then “Head-up display”.
Adjusting the display information
height
Depending on your driving position,
you can raise or lower the information
on the display.
Adjusting the display brightness
You can adjust the brightness (day or
night mode)
– automatically : the brightness will
vary depending on the outdoor light.
– manually: the brightness automati-
cally switches with the activation/de-
activation of the lights.
In both cases, the day mode varies
based on the outdoor brightness.
Good information visibility can be af-
fected by:
– the seat position;
– the presence of an object placed
on the opened display;
– the polarisation of some spectacle
lenses;
– extreme weather conditions (rain,
snow, very strong sunlight, etc.).
In the event of contradic-
tory information between
the instrument panel and
the head-up display/multi-
function screen, please refer to the
information displayed on the instru-
ment panel.
Do not manually force the opening/
closure of the head-up display.
For safety reasons, carry
out any adjustments when
the vehicle is stationary.

– stop and restart the engine;
or
– from the multifunction screen, change the display opening settings.
If there is still a problem, contact an au-
thorised dealer.

ON-BOARD COMPUTER: general information (2/2)
Interpreting some of the
values displayed after
resetting
The values showing average fuel con-
sumption and average speed will
become more stable and reliable the
further you have travelled since the last
time the Reset button was pressed.
The average fuel consumption may de-
crease when:
– the vehicle stops accelerating;
– the engine reaches its operating
temperature (if the engine was cold
when the reset key was pressed);
– when driving from an urban area
onto the open road.
Automatic resetting of the
journey parameters
Resetting occurs automatically when
the maximum value of any of the pa-
rameters is exceeded.
Trip mileage resetting
With “trip mileage recorder” selected
on the display, press key OK 3 until the
mileage recorder resets to zero.
Resetting the journey
parameters (reset button)
with the display showing one of the trip
settings, press key OK 3 until the dis-
play is reset to zero.

With the ignition switched on, the engine not running and
the display set to “Service Intervals”, press button OK for ap-
proximately 5 seconds to display the mileage before service (dis-
tance or time to the next service). When the range approaches
its limit, there are several possible scenarios:
– distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or
one month : the message “Service due in” is displayed along
with the nearest limit (distance or time);
– range equal to 0 km/miles or service date reached: the
message “Service required” is displayed accompanied by
warning light
©.
The vehicle requires a service as soon as possible.

Resetting: to reset the distance before service, press and hold button 2 for approximately 10 seconds until the display shows
the mileage permanently.
NB: if a service is performed without changing the engine oil, only the mi\
leage before the next service should be reset. In the
event of an oil change, both the distance before the next service and th\
e next oil change should be reset.

With the ignition switched on and the engine not running ,
and the selected display is “Mileage before service”, press
button OK for about 5 seconds to display the mileage before
the next service, then press button 2 to view the mileage before
the next oil change (distance or time remaining before the next
service). When the range approaches its limit, there are several
possible scenarios:
– distance/time remaining less than 900 miles (1,500 km) or
one month : the message “Service due in” is displayed, ac-
companied by the nearest term (distance or time);
– range equal to 0 km/miles or service date reached: the
message “Service required” is displayed accompanied by

The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
Service Intervals
Oil change in

Depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change varies accord\
ing to the driving style (frequent driving at low speed ,
door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idling speed, towing a trailer, etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change can
therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distance t\
ravelled.
Resetting: to reset the mileage before a service, press and hold button 2 for approximately 10 seconds until the display shows
the range permanently.
NB: if a service is performed without changing the engine oil, only the mi\
leage before the next service should be reset. In the
event of an oil change, both the distance before the next service and th\
e next oil change should be reset.

TRIP COMPUTER AND WARNING SYSTEM: warning message
These appear with the ® warning light and require you to stop immediately, for your own safety, as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow. Stop your engine and do not restart it. Contact an approved Dealer.

ternately (when there are several messages to be displayed), and may b\
e accompanied by a warning light and/or a beep.
Examples of messages Interpreting the display selected
« Engine failure hazard » Indicates an injection fault, the vehicle’s engine has overheated or there is a
serious engine fault.
“Power steering fault” or “Risk of locked
steering” Indicates a fault in the steering or a problem with the four-wheel drive\
.
“Braking system fault” or ”Stop vehicle” Indicates a fault in the braking system. Apply the electronic parking brake ma-
nually and ensure that the vehicle is immobilised using a chock.

1.86
STEERING WHEEL/POWER-ASSISTED STEERING
Power-assisted steering
Variable power-assisted steering
The variable power assisted steering
system is equipped with an electronic
control system which alters the level of
assistance to suit the vehicle speed.
Steering is made easier during parking
manoeuvres (for added comfort) while
the force needed to steer increases
progressively as the speed rises (for
enhanced safety at high speeds).
Stop and Start feature
With the engine on standby, power-as-
sisted steering is no longer operational.
It returns to its original state when the
engine is restarted or when the speed
moves above 1 mph or 1 km/h (hill,
slope, etc.).
Adjusting the steering wheel
height and depth
Lower the lever 1 and position the
steering wheel in the required position.
Then, raise the lever fully, beyond the
point of resistance to lock the steering
wheel.
Make sure that the steering wheel is
correctly locked.
For safety reasons, only
adjust the steering wheel
when the vehicle is station-
ary.
Never leave the steering wheel at
full lock while stationary.
Do not switch off the engine
when driving downhill and,
as a general rule, when
driving (the power-assisted
steering and brake cannot operate
normally).
With the engine switched off, or if
there is a system fault, it is still pos-
sible to turn the steering wheel. The
force required will be greater.

Engine on standby - power-
assisted steering is no
longer operational.
NB: power-assisted steering depends
on the mode selected in the “Multi-
Sense” menu (please refer to the infor-
mation in “Multi-Sense” in Section 3).

seat with position memory, you can
enter a specific setting for the door mir-
rors when reversing and store the po-
sition.
With the vehicle at a standstill and re-
verse gear engaged, select the door
mirror using switch 2 then, with button 1,
adjust it to the required position.

Recalling the memorised
position
From the multifunction screen, select
menu “Vehicle”, “Seats”, “Settings” then
“Position” and select “Recall”.
The positions of the door mirrors in
forward gear, reverse and of the front
seats are recalled.
Returning to the driving position
Moving from reverse gear to a forward
gear is done:
– approximately 9 seconds after re- verse gear has been disengaged
when the speed is lower than 6 mph
(10 km/h);
– forward gear engaged when the speed is greater than 6 mph
(10 km/h);
– when the engine is stopped;
– when switch 2 is in neutral position.
For safety reasons, carry
out any adjustments when
the vehicle is not being
driven.
