STEERING WHEEL/POWER-ASSISTED STEERING
Steering wheel height
adjustment
Pull lever 1 and move the steering
wheel to the required position; push
lever 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.
1
Never switch off the igni-
tion when travelling down-
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).
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).
Never leave the steering wheel on
full lock when the vehicle is station-
ary.
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.
A noise may be heard when the
steering wheel is moved quickly.
This is normal.

These appear with the ® warning light and require you to stop immediately, for your own safety, as soon as traffic
conditions allow. Stop your engine and do not restart it. Contact an approved Dealer.
Examples of warning messages are given in the following pages. Note: the messages appear on the display either individually
or alternately (when there are several messages to be displayed), and \
may be accompanied by a warning light and/or a beep.
Examples of messages Interpretation of messages
« STEERING FAULT » Indicates a fault in the vehicle’s power assisted steering.
« ELEC FAULT DANGER » Indicates a fault in the electrical system.
« ELEC. MOTOR FAULT » Indicates that the vehicle is losing power.
« BRAKING FAULT » Indicates a fault in the braking system.
« TYRE PUNCTURE » Indicates that at least one wheel is punctured or severely underinflated\

Windscreen wiper
With the ignition on, move stalk 1 paral-
lel to the steering wheel:
A Park
B Intermittent wiping
The wipers will pause for several
seconds between sweeps. It is
possible to change the time be-
tween sweeps by turning ring 2.
C Normal wiping speed
D Fast wiping speed
FRONT WINDSCREEN WASHER/WIPER (1/2)
Special note
When the vehicle is being driven, the
wiping speed slows down whenever
the vehicle stops. For example, fast
wiping speed will slow to normal wiping
speed. As soon as the vehicle moves
off, wiping will return to the speed origi-
nally selected.
If stalk 1 is operated, it overrides and
cancels the automatic function.
If for any reason the wipers are
jammed (e.g. frozen to windscreen
by ice, etc.), the system will auto-
matically cut the power supply to
the wipers.

Automatic wiper function
(depending on vehicle)
With the engine running, move stalk 1.
A Park
B Automatic wiper function
When this position is selected, the
system detects the presence of
water on the windscreen and trig-
gers wiping at a suitable wiping
speed. The triggering threshold
and the time between sweeps can
be adjusted by turning ring 2.
NB: in foggy weather or during
snowfalls, the wiping is not automati-
cally triggered and remains under
the driver’s control.
C Normal wiping speed
D Fast wiping speed

Stopping the engine
With the engine running, turn the key
back to the “Stop” position St. Warning
light
Ṑ goes out.
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone in your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or locking the
doors, for example.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
Never switch off the igni-
tion before the vehicle has
come to a complete stop.
Switching off the engine di-
sables the assistance equipment:
brakes, power-assisted steering,
etc., and the passive safety devices
such as airbagsand pretensioners.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (1/2)
The vehicle range depends on vehicle
usage conditions, equipment fitted and
the user’s driving style. To optimise the
energy consumption, please refer to
the following advice.
Depending on the vehicle, you will be
provided with functions which enable
you to lower the energy consumption:
– ECO mode, activated by the ECO button;
– charge meter.
ECO mode
The ECO function optimises vehicle
range by limiting engine performance.
It acts upon certain power consuming
systems in the vehicle (heating, air con-
ditioning, power-assisted steering etc.)
and on certain driving actions (acceler-
ation, cruise control, deceleration etc.). Activating the function
Press switch 1.
Warning light
2 comes on the instru-
ment panel.
While driving, it is possible to exit the
ECO mode temporarily in order to im-
prove engine performance.
To do this, press the accelerator pedal
firmly and fully.
2
1
ECO mode is reactivated when you
take pressure off the accelerator pedal.
Disabling the function
Press switch 1.
Warning light 2 goes out on the instru-
ment panel.
The cruise control switches to
standby each time the ECO mode
is activated or deactivated. Please
refer to the information on “Cruise
control/speed limiter: cruise control
function” in Section 2.

DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (2/3)
Electronic stability program
ESC with understeer control
and traction control
Electronic stability control ESC
This system helps you to keep control
of the vehicle in critical driving condi-
tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip
on a bend, etc.).
Operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel detects
the direction selected by the driver.
Other sensors throughout the vehicle
measure the actual direction.
The system compares driver input to
the actual trajectory of the vehicle and
corrects the trajectory if necessary by
controlling the braking of certain wheels
and/or engine power. In the event that
the system is engaged, indicator light
flashes on the instrument panel. Understeer control
This system optimises the action of the
ESC in the case of pronounced under-
steer (loss of front axle road holding).
Traction control
This system helps to limit wheelspin of
the drive wheels and to control the ve-
hicle when pulling away accelerating or
decelerating.
Operating principle
Using the wheel sensors, the system
measures and compares the speed of
the drive wheels at all times and slows
down their over-rotation. If a wheel is
starting to slip, the system brakes au-
tomatically until the drive supplied be-
comes compatible with the level of grip
under the wheel again.
The system also adjusts the engine
speed to the grip available under the
wheels, independently of the pressure
exerted on the accelerator pedal. Operating faults
When the system detects an operating
fault the message “CHECK ESC” and
warning light
© appear on the in-
strument panel. In this case, the ESC
and traction control system are deacti-
vated.
Consult an approved dealer.
