c) Mileage before service or oil change.Mileage before service
With the ignition switched on, the engine not running and
the display set to “Mileage before service”, press and hold the
OK button for approximately 5 seconds to display the mileage
before the next service, then press the 2 button to view the
mileage before the next oil change (distance or time remaining
before the next service). When the distance value 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
warning light
©.
The vehicle requires an oil change as soon as possible.
Service Intervals
Oil change in
30 000 km / 24 mo
Service due in
300 km / 24 days
Service required
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.

Efficiency of a wiper blade
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. How long they last depends
on you:
– it must remain clean: clean the blade and the screen regularly
with soapy water;
– do not use it when the screen is dry;
– free it from the screen when it has not been used for a long time.
In any event, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately every year (refer to the
information on “Wiper blades: re-
placement” in section 5).
Precautions for using the
wipers
– In freezing or snowy weather, clear the screen before starting
the wipers (risk of motor over-
heating);
– ensure that no objects are ob- structing the travel of the blade.

Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction of the
automatic wiping, the wiper is set to
intermittent wiping. Contact an au-
thorised dealer.
The operation of the rain sensor can
be disturbed in the event of:
– damaged windscreen wipers; a
film of water or traces left by a
blade in the sensor’s detection
zone may increase the response
time of the automatic wipers, or
increase the wiping frequency;
– a windscreen with any chip or
crack level with the sensor, or a
windscreen covered in dust, dirt,
insects, ice, the use of washing
wax and water-repellent chemi-
cals; the windscreen wiper will
be less sensitive or may even not
react at all.

Precautions
– In the event of ice, check whether the
blades are stuck to the windscreen
before operating the wiping mecha-
nism. If you activate the wipers while
the blades are stuck down with ice,
you may risk damaging both the
blade and the wiper motor.
– Do not activate the wipers on a dry
screen. This will lead to the prema-
ture wear or damage to the blades.

Note:
After your intervention, to reposition the
blades correctly, make sure the blades
are resting on the windscreen, switch
on the ignition and activate the wiper
control.
Before any action involving
the windscreen (washing
the vehicle, de-icing,
cleaning the windscreen,
etc.) return stalk 1 to position B
(stop).
Risk of injury and/or damage.
In the event of obstacles on the
windscreen (dirt, snow, ice etc.),
clean the windscreen (including the
central area located behind the in-
terior rear view mirror) before oper-
ating the wipers (risk of motor over-
heating).
If an object is preventing a blade
from moving, it may stop function-
ing. Remove the obstacle and react-
ivate the wiper using the wiper stalk.
WINDSCREEN WASH, WIPE (4/6)
Specific front wiper position
(service position)
This position enables the blades to be
lifted to remove them from the winds-
creen.
It may be useful to:
– to clean the blades;
– to release the blades from the winds- creen in winter;
– replace the blades (please refer to the information on “Wiper blades” in
Section 5).
With the ignition on and the engine off,
lower the windscreen wiper stalk fully
(fast continuous wipe position). The
wiper arms stop in a position away from
the bonnet.
To return the blades to position, make
sure they have been placed on the
windscreen, then move the stalk to po-
sition B (stop) with the ignition on.
Before switching on the ignition,
place the wipers on the windscreen.
Otherwise, there may a risk of damage
to the bonnet or the wipers when they
are switched on.1

Note:
In temperatures below zero, the washer
liquid risks freezing to the windscreen,
thereby reducing visibility. Heat the
windscreen using the demister control
before cleaning.
Windscreen washer
With the ignition on, pull stalk 1 then
release.
A brief pull will trigger a single sweep
of the wipers, in addition to the wind-
screen washer.
A longer pull will trigger three sweeps
of the wipers followed, a few seconds
later, by a fourth, in addition to the wind-
screen washer.
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in position B (stop).

Activation/deactivation of the rear
screen wiper
(depending on the vehicle)
Engaging reverse gear triggers inter-
mittent wiping (if the front wipers are in
operation). If your vehicle is fitted with
a vehicle settings customisation menu,
you can opt to activate or deactivate
this function. To do this, refer to the in-
formation on the “Vehicle settings cus-
tomisation menu” in Section 1; “Rear
wiping in reverse gear”.
REAR SCREEN WASH, WIPE (2/2)
pRear screen wash/wipe
With the ignition on, push and
hold stalk 1, then release.
A longer action will trigger three sweeps
of the wipers followed, a few seconds
later, by a fourth, in addition to the wind-
screen washer.
In the event of obstacles present on the
rear window (dirt, snow, etc.), the wiper
will try to sweep away all the obstacles.
If an obstacle prevents the blade from
moving, it can be stopped. Remove the
obstacle, wait for around 30 seconds
and reactivate the wiper using the wiper
stalk.
Precautions
–
In the event of ice, check that the
blades are not stuck to the wind-
screen before operating the wipers.
If you activate the wiper while the
blade is blocked by ice, you risk
damaging both the blade and the
wiping motor.
– Do not operate the wipers on a dry
screen. This will lead to the prema-
ture wear or damage to the blades.

FUEL TANK (2/3)Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle
and insert it fully before turning it on to fill the fuel tank (risk of splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position through-
out the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi-
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The cover A and its
surround must remain clean.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck consists of a restrictor fitted with
a safety system which only allows
a nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
Vehicle fitted with the Stop and
Start function
To fill up with fuel, the engine must
be stopped (and not on standby):
stop the engine (Please See
“Starting, stopping the engine” in
Section 2).
Fuel filler cap: this is spe-
cific.
If you have to replace it,
make sure it is identical
to the original cap. Contact an ap-
proved Dealer.
Never place the cap near a source
of heat or flame.
Do not wash the filler area with a
high-pressure washer.
Fuel types that conform to European
standards with which the engines of
vehicles sold in Europe are compat-
ible: refer to the “Engine specifica-
tions” in section 6.
Do not mix even small
amounts of petrol (un-
leaded or E85) with diesel.
Do not use ethanol-based
fuel if your vehicle is not compatible
with this fuel.
Do not add anything to the fuel (ad-
ditive, reagent, etc.) to prevent the
risk of damaging the engine.

1.97
FUEL TANK (3/3)
Persistent fuel odour
If you notice a persistent
fuel odour you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as traf- fic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and stay clear
of the traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.
No modifications what-
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (electronic units,
wiring, fuel circuit, injectors, pro-
tective covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (unless undertaken by
qualified Network personnel).Running out of fuel on diesel
