AIR CONDITIONING: information and operating instructions (1/2)
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid 
may damage eyes or skin.
Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved Dealer in the event of an oper-
ating fault.
–  Reduction in de-icing, demisting  or air conditioning performance.  
This may be caused by the passen-
ger compartment filter cartridge be-
coming clogged.
–  No cold air is being produced.  
Check that the controls are set cor-
rectly and that the fuses are sound. 
Otherwise, switch off the system.
Range
It is normal to notice an increase in 
energy usage when the air conditioning 
is operating.
Switch off the system when it is not re-
quired.
Advice for reducing consumption 
and helping to preserve the environ-
ment
Drive with the air vents on and the win-
dows 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.
MaintenanceRefer to the Maintenance Document 
for your vehicle for the inspection fre-
quency.
Below approximately 10°C, with the 
engine off it is normal to notice cold 
air enter the passenger compart-
ment via the vents when ventilation 
has not stopped (refer to the infor-
mation on “Heating, air condition-
ing” in section 3). It is recommended 
to position the ventilation control at 
0 in case of brief stops.
Presence of water under the 
vehicle.
After prolonged use of the air condi-
tioning system, it is normal for water 
to be present under the vehicle. This is 
caused by condensation.
Noise
Each time the ignition is switched off, 
the ventilation will be switched off after 
about ten seconds.
Vehicles equipped with  
mode ECO
Once activated, ECO mode may 
reduce air conditioning perform-
ance. Please refer to the informa-
tion on “Driving advice, Eco-driving” 
in Section 2.
Use the air conditioning system reg-
ularly, even in cold weather, running 
it at least once a month for approxi-
mately 5 minutes.

Ensure that the bonnet is 
properly locked.
Check that nothing is pre-
venting the catch from lock-
ing (gravel, cloth, etc.).
BONNET (2/2)
Closing the bonnet
Check that nothing has been left in the 
engine compartment.
To close the bonnet again, hold the 
bonnet in the middle and lower it to 30 
cm above the closed position, then re-
lease it.
After carrying out any work 
in the engine compart-
ment, check that nothing 
has been left behind (cloth, 
tools, etc.).
These may damage the engine or 
cause a fire.
In the event of even a slight 
impact involving the radia-
tor grille or bonnet, have 
the bonnet lock checked by 
an approved dealer as soon as pos-
sible.

Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for 
your vehicle.
LEVELS (1/2)
 CoolantWith the engine switched off and on 
level ground, the level when cold must 
be between the “MINI” and “MAXI” 
marks on the coolant reservoir  1 and 2.
Top this level up when cold  before it 
reaches the MIN mark. Checking intervals
Check the coolant level regularly 
(very severe damage is likely to be 
caused to the engine if it runs out of 
coolant).
If the level needs to be topped up, only 
use products approved by our Technical 
Department which ensure:
–  protection against freezing;
–  anticorrosion protection of the cool-
ing system.
No operations should be 
carried out on the cooling 
circuit when the engine is 
hot.
Risk of burns.
Consult your approved dealer at 
once if you notice an abnormal or 
repeated drop in any of the fluid 
levels.
12
Do not do any work under 
the bonnet when the vehicle 
is charging or when the igni-
tion is switched on.
Please note when work-
ing close to the engine that 
it may be hot. The engine 
cooling fan may also start 
at any moment. The 
 label 
in the engine compartment reminds 
you of this.
Risk of injury.

–  fill until you can see the fluid;
–  close the cap.
Liquid
Screen wash product (product with 
antifreeze in winter).

the height of the windscreen washer 
jets.

Level 3
It is normal for the level to drop as 
the linings become worn, but it should 
never drop below the “ MINI” warning 
line.
If you wish to check the disc and drum 
wear yourself, you should obtain the 
document explaining the checking pro-
cedure from our network or from the 
manufacturer’s website.
Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our 
Technical Department (and taken from 
a sealed container).
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for 
your vehicle.
Consult your approved dealer at 
once if you notice an abnormal or 
repeated drop in any of the fluid 
levels.
 Brake fluid
This should be checked frequently, 
and immediately if you notice even the 
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
The level should be read with the engine 
switched off and on level ground.

Using a roller type car wash
Return the windscreen wiper stalk to 
the Park position (refer to the informa-
tion on the “Windscreen washer, wiper” 
in Section 1). Check the mounting of 
external accessories, additional lights 
and mirrors, and ensure that the wiper 
blades are secured with adhesive tape.
Remove the radio aerial mast if your 
vehicle is fitted with this equipment. 
Remember to remove the tape and refit 
the antenna after washing.
BODYWORK MAINTENANCE (3/3)Cleaning the headlights
As the headlights are made of plastic 
“glass”, use a soft cloth or cotton wool 
to clean them. If this does not clean 
them properly, moisten the cloth with 
soapy water, then wipe clean with a soft 
damp cloth or cotton wool.
Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry 
cloth.
Do not use cleaning products con-
taining alcohol or utensils (e.g.: a 
scraper).
Washing the vehicle
Never wash the engine 
compartment, the charging 
connection or the traction 
battery with a high-pressure jet.
This risks damaging the electric cir-
cuit.
Never wash the vehicle while it is 
charging.
Risk of electric shock and a risk to 
life.
Vehicles with a matte paint 
finish
This type of paint requires certain pre-
cautions.
Do not do the following
Use wax-based products (polishing).
Rub too hard.
Wash the vehicle in a roller-type car 
wash.
Wash the vehicle using a high-pressure 
device.
Attach stickers to the paintwork (risk of 
leaving marks).
Wash the vehicle 
using a high-pressure 
cleaning device.
You should do the following
Wash the vehicle by hand using plenty 
of water, using a soft cloth or a gentle 
sponge.

To comply with local legislation, or 
as a precaution, you can obtain an 
emergency kit containing a set of 
spare bulbs and fuses from an ap-
proved Dealer.
FUSES (1/2)
Fuse box
If any electrical component does not 
work, check the condition of the fuses. 
Unclip cover  A. To locate the fuses, please see the fol-
lowing page.
It is not advisable to use the free fuse 
locations.
Some functions are protected by fuses 
located in the engine compartment. 
However, because of their reduced ac-
cessibility, 
it is recommended to have 
these fuses replaced by an autho-
rised dealer.
Check the fuse in question and  replace it, if necessary, with a fuse of 
the same rating.
If a fuse is fitted where the rating is too high, it may cause the elect\
rical 
circuit to overheat (risk of fire) in the event of an item of equipmen\
t using 
an excessive amount of current.

Tweezers 1
Remove the fuse using tweezers  1, lo-
cated at the back of cover A.
To remove the fuse from the tweezers, 
slide the fuse to the side.
