The key must not be used for any
function other than those described
in the handbook (removing the cap
from a bottle, etc.).
Advice
Avoid leaving the remote control in
hot, cold or humid areas.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle
with the card inside the
vehicle and never leave a
child (or a pet) unsupervised. With
the card in the reader, it would be
possible to start the engine or oper-
ate electrical equipment such as the
electric windows and there is a risk
that part of their body may become
trapped (neck, arm, hand, etc.).
Risk of serious injury.

Trip mileage resetting
With “trip mileage recorder” selected on
the display, press button 1 or 2 until the
mileage recorder resets to zero.
Resetting the journey
parameters (reset button)
With one of the journey parameters se-
lected on the display, press button 1
or 2 until the display resets.
Interpreting some of the
values displayed after
resetting
The values showing average fuel con -
sumption, range and average speed
will become more stable and reliable
the further you travel after pressing the
reset button.
For the first few miles after pressing the
reset button you may notice:
– that the range increases as you
travel. This range takes into account
the average fuel consumption since
the last time the reset button was
pressed. Therefore, the average fuel
consumption may decrease when:
– the vehicle is no longer accelerat-
ing;
– the engine reaches its operating
temperature (engine cold when
reset button pressed);
– driving from a built-up 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.1
