height and reach adjustment
Pull lever 1 and move the steering
wheel to the required position; then
push the lever beyond the point of re -
sistance 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.
Never switch off the igni -
tion when travelling down -
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).

v ariable power-assisted
steering
It is equipped with a system which
adapts the level of assistance to the ve-
hicle speed.
Steering is made easier during parking
manoeuvres (for added comfort) whilst
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.
Do not drive with a low battery
charge. The steering wheel may not
operate correctly.
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.

is opposite mark 2.
The instrument panel will light up. The
brightness can be adjusted by turning
the control knob 4. If the side lights are
not switched on, it is not possible to set
the brightness. This control can also
be used to adjust the brightness of the
audio equipment and air conditioning
display.

cornering lights
Depending on the vehicle, if the dipped
beam headlights are on when corner -
ing, and under certain driving condi -
tions (speed, steering wheel angle,
etc.), additional lights are switched on
to light the inside of the bend.
switching off the lights
There are two possibilities:
– manually, move ring 3 to the OFF po-
sition;
– automatically, the lights are switched
off when the engine is switched off
or when the driver’s door is opened.
In this case, the next time the engine
is started the lights will be switched
back on according to the position of
the ring 3.
Lights-on warning buzzer
If the lights are on after the engine is
switched off, a warning beep sounds
when the driver ’s door is opened to
warn you that the lights are still on.
“see-me-home lighting”
function
This function (useful, for example, for
opening a gate, garage, etc.) enables
you to switch the dipped headlights on
momentarily.
With the engine and lights off and
ring 3 in the Off position , pull stalk 1
towards you: the dipped beam head -
lights light up for approximately thirty
seconds.
This action may be carried out no more
than ten times for a maximum lighting
period of ten minutes.
To switch off the lights before they go
out automatically, turn the ring on the
stalk 1 , then return it to the OFF posi -
tion.

capacity of the fuel tank: 65 liters
(approximately).
Pull lever 1 , located under the dash -
board on the driver’s side to release the
cover A. Open it then unscrew fuel filler
cap B.
For details on filling the fuel tank, refer
to the information on “Filling up with
fuel”.fuel grade
Use a high-grade fuel that complies
with the legislation in force in each
country and which must conform to
the specifications given on the label
on cover A. Refer to the information on
“Engine specifications” in Section 6.

diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms with the information given on
the label inside cover A.
petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) must conform
with the information given on the label
on cover A. Refer to the information on
“Engine specifications” in Section 6.
Do not wash the filler
area with a high-pressure
washer.
Fuel filler cap: this is of a
special type. If you have
to replace it, make sure
the new cap is of the same
type.
Contact your approved Dealer.
Never place the cap near a source
of heat or flame.

v ehicles running on ethanol -based
fuel
It is essential to use unleaded petrol or
fuel containing a maximum of 85% eth-
anol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine. To avoid this problem, use un-
leaded petrol or, on equipped vehicles,
use the heater integrated in the engine:
connect the special end of the exten -
sion piece supplied into the socket in -
tegrated into the radiator grille and the
other end into a 220v socket for at least
6 hours before starting.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
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.
fUEL TANK (2/3)
filling with fuel
Insert the nozzle fully before beginning
to fill the tank (risk of splashback).
Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout 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 cap and its sur-
round 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 contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).persistent smell of
fuel
If you notice a persistent
smell of fuel you should:
– stop the vehicle if traffic condi -
tions allow and switch off the igni -
tion;
– switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers
to leave the vehicle and to keep
away from traffic;
– contact an authorised dealer.

at idle. If the engine does not start after
several attempts, contact an authorised
dealer.

The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
start at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Running out of fuel on diesel
versions
After a breakdown caused by com -
pletely running out of fuel, the system
must be reprimed before the engine is
restarted:
– Open the bonnet;
– operate priming bulb 2 several times
and stop when you can feel the pres-
sure.
No modifications what -
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (electronic unit,
wiring, fuel circuit, injector, protec -
tive covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (unless undertaken by
qualified Network personnel).
