Advice on antipollution, fuel economy and driving
ADvIcE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (1/3)
Engine adjustments
– Ignition:   this  does  not  require  ad- 
justment.
–
  Spark plugs:  for optimum fuel econ- 
omy,  efficiency  and  performance,  
the  specifications  laid  down  by  our  
Design  Department  must  be  strictly  
applied.
If the spark plugs have to be changed,  
use the make, type and gap specified  
for your vehicle’s engine. Contact an  
approved Dealer for this.
–
  Idle speed:  this does not require ad- 
justment.
–
  Air  filter,  diesel  filter:   a  choked  el- 
ement  hinders  performance.  It  must  
be replaced.
Maintenance
It should be noted that failure to respect  
antipollution  regulations  may  lead  to  
legal  action  being  taken  against  the  
vehicle  owner.  In  addition,  replacing  
engine, fuel supply system and exhaust  
components with parts other than those  
originally  recommended  by  the  manu- 
facturer  may  alter  your  vehicle  so  that  
it  no  longer  complies  with  antipollution  
standards.
Have  your  vehicle  checked  and  ad- 
justed  by  an  approved  Dealer  in  ac- 
cordance  with  the  instructions  in  your  
Maintenance  Service  Booklet.  Your  
Dealer has all the equipment necessary  
for  ensuring  that  your  vehicle  is  main- 
tained to its original standard.
Your  vehicle  has  been  designed  to  
actively  strive  to  reduce  the  pollutant  
exhaust  gas  emissions  and  to  save  
energy.
By  virtue  of  its  design,  moderate  fuel  
consumption  and  initial  settings,  your  
vehicle  conforms  to  current  antipollu- 
tion  regulations.  But  the  fuel  consump- 
tion of your vehicle and the level of pol- 
lutant  exhaust  gas  emissions  are  also  
your responsibility. Make sure that your  
vehicle  is  maintained  and  used  cor- 
rectly.

Exhaust gas monitoring  
system
The  exhaust  gas  monitoring  system  
will  detect  any  operating  faults  in  the  
vehicle’s antipollution system.
If  this  system  malfunctions,  toxic  sub- 
stances  may  be  released  into  the  at- 
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThe  instrument  panel  warning  
light shows any system faults:
This  comes  on  when  the  ignition  is  
switched  on  and  goes  out  after  3  sec- 
onds.
–
   if it lights up continuously, consult an   
approved  Dealer  as  soon  as  possi- 
ble;
–
  if it flashes, reduce the engine speed   
until the light stops flashing. Contact  
your  approved  dealer  as  soon  as  
possible.
ADvIcE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
Driving
–  Drive  carefully  for  the  first  few  miles  
until  the  engine  reaches  its  normal  
operating  temperature,  rather  than  
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta- 
tionary.
–
  Speed is expensive.
–  Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive   
with a light right foot. –
  
Brake as little as possible by suitably   
anticipating an obstacle or bend and  
then simply releasing the accelerator  
pedal.
–
  Avoid sudden acceleration.
–  Do  not  overrev  the  engine  in  the  in - 
termediate  gears.  Always  use  the  
highest gear possible without labour- 
ing the engine.
–
  Do  not  try  to  maintain  the  same   
speed  up  a  hill,  accelerate  no  more  
than  you  would  on  the  level.  Keep  
your foot in the same position on the  
accelerator pedal.
–
  Double declutching and accelerating   
before switching off are unnecessary  
in modern vehicles.
–
  Bad weather, flooded roads.
Do not drive through floods  
if  the  depth  of  water  is  
above  the  lower  edge  of  
the wheel rims.

Advice on use
–  Electricity is fuel; switch off all electri- 
cal components which are not really  
needed.  h
 owever (safety first), keep  
your  lights  on  when  the  visibility  is  
poor (“see and be seen”).
–
  Use  the  air  vents.  Driving  with  the   
windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)  
will  increase  fuel  consumption  by  
4%. –
  
In  vehicles  fitted  with  air  condi- 
tioning ,  it  is  normal  to  observe  an  
increase  in  fuel  consumption  (es- 
pecially  in  city  conditions)  when  it  is  
used. For vehicles fitted with manual  
air conditioning, switch off the system  
when it is not required.
Some advice for reducing fuel  
consumption and therefore helping  
to protect the environment:
–
   If the vehicle has been parked in the   
sun,  open  the  doors  for  a  few  mo- 
ments to let the hot air escape before  
starting the engine.
–
  Never  fill  the  fuel  tank  right  to  the   
brim to avoid overflow.
–
  Do  not  leave  an  empty  roof  rack   
fitted to the vehicle.
–
  It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob - 
jects.
–
  When  towing  a  caravan,  fit  an  ap - 
proved  wind  deflector  and  adjust  it  
carefully; –
  
Avoid  using  the  vehicle  for  door - 
to-door  calls  (short  journeys  with  
long  waits  in  between)  because  the  
engine never reaches its normal op- 
erating temperature.
t yres
–  Inadequate  pressures  may  increase  
fuel consumption.
–
  The  use  of  non-recommended  tyres   
can increase fuel consumption.

Air COnDitiOninG: information and advice on use
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase  
in  fuel  consumption  (especially  
when  driving  in  town)  when  the  air  
conditioning  is  operating.  For  vehi- 
cles fitted with manual air condition- 
ing, switch off the system when it is  
not required.
Advice for reducing consumption  
and therefore helping to preserve  
the environment:
Drive  with  the  air  vents  open  and  
the windows closed.
If  the  vehicle  has  been  parked  in  
the  sun,  open  the  doors  for  a  few  
moments  to  let  the  hot  air  escape  
before starting the engine.
Maintenance
Refer  to  the  Maintenance  Service  
Booklet  for  your  vehicle  for  the  in- 
spection frequency.
Do  not  open  the  refriger- 
ant  fluid  circuit.   The  fluid  
may damage eyes or skin.
note
Presence  of  water  under  the  ve- 
hicle. After prolonged use of the air  
conditioning system, it is normal for  
water  to  be  present  under  the  ve- 
hicle.  This  is  caused  by  condensa- 
tion.
Operating faults
As  a  general  rule,  contact  your  ap- 
proved Dealer in the event of an op- 
erating fault.
–
  r eduction  in  de-icing,  demist - 
ing or air conditioning perform- 
ance. This may be caused by the  
passenger  compartment  filter  
cartridge becoming clogged.
–
  no  cold  air  is  being  produced.   
Check  that  the  controls  are  set  
correctly  and  that  the  fuses  are  
sound.  Otherwise,  switch  off  the  
system.
Do  not  add  anything  to  the  
vehicle’s  ventilation  circuit  
(for  example,  to  remove  
bad odours).
t h
ere  is  a  risk  of  damage  or  of   
fire.

Engine oil level
general information
If the level is at minimum:  “ok” will not  
appear on the display; dashes and “oil”  
will  flash  (message  2)  and,  depending  
on  the  vehicle, 
ø  lights  up  on  the  
instrument panel.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as  
possible.
The 
ø  warning  light  comes  on  
while driving when the oil change/serv- 
ice interval is reached.
Message 1
Level above  
minimum
Message 2
Minimum level  
(flashing)
Minimum oil level warning on  
the instrument panel
When  the  ignition  has  been  switched  
on for approximately 30 seconds:
If  the  level  is  above  the  minimum  
level ,  the  display  shows  display  mes- 
sage
  1.
For  more  information,  press  the  trip  
mileage recorder reset button.
The  squares  which  appear  on  the  dis- 
play  indicate  the  level.  These  symbols  
disappear  as  the  oil  level  drops  and  
they are replaced by dashes.
engIne OIL  LeveL: general information (1/2)
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.
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 an 
approved  Dealer  if  more  than  0.5  litres 
is  being  consumed  every  600  miles 
(1,000 km) after the running in period.
Oil  change  frequency:  check  the  oil  
level from time to time and certainly  
before any long journey to avoid the  
risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil level
The  oil  level  should  be  read  with  the  
vehicle on level ground, after the engine  
has been switched off for some time.
t h
e  dipstick  must  be  used  to  read 
the  exact  oil  level  and  make  sure 
that the maximum level has not been 
exceeded  (risk  of  engine  damage). 
Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only alerts  
the driver when the oil level is at its min- 
imum.
