WINDSCREEN WASH/WIPE (6/6)
Note:
To ensure the headlight washers ope-
rate correctly in winter, remove snow
from the jet trims and de-ice the jet
trims using an aerosol de-icer.
You are recommended to regularly
remove dirt encrusted on the headlight
glass.
When the minimum windscreen washer
fluid level is reached, the headlight
washer system may be deprimed.
Fill the windscreen washer fluid and
then activate the windscreen washer,
with the engine running, to reprime
the system.
Headlight washers
Headlights on
On equipped vehicles, hold stalk 1
pulled towards you for about 2 seconds
- the headlight washers and winds-
creen washers will be activated at the
same time.
The headlight washers are also activa-
ted after three prolonged movements
on the front windscreen washer control.
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in position B (stop).
Risk of injury.

Driving advice, Eco-driving
Behaviour
– 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.
– Dynamic driving with a lot of frequent acceleration and braking is expen-
sive on fuel in comparison to the time
saved.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-termediate gears.
You should always use the highest gear possible.
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Brake as little as possible. If you an- ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad-
vance, you may then simply release
the accelerator pedal.
– Do not try to maintain the same speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on flat ground. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another.
There is a risk of wedging the
pedals
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (4/5)
– Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through
floods if the water is
above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.

the vehicle.
The tool kit A is located in the boot,
under the carpet.
Lift the cover, then remove it.

Fold it correctly before refitting it in its
housing (ensure that the wheelbrace is
correctly positioned 2).
Hubcap tool 3
This tool is used to remove the wheel
trims.
Screw guide 4
For tightening/loosening wheel bolts on
vehicles fitted with alloy wheels
Towing hitch 5
Refer to the information on “Towing” in

Do not leave the tools unsecured inside the vehicle as they may come loo\
se under braking. After use, check that all
the tools are correctly clipped into the tool kit, then position it corr\
ectly in its housing: risk of injury.
If wheel bolts are supplied in the tool kit, only use these bolts for th\
e emergency spare wheel: refer to the label affixed
to the emergency spare wheel.
The jack is designed for wheel changing purposes only. Under no circumstances should it be used for carrying out repairs un-
derneath the vehicle or to gain access to the underside of the vehicle.

TYRES (1/3)
Maintaining the tyres
The tyres must be in good condition
and the tread form must have sufficient
depth; tyres approved by our Technical
Department have tread wear indica-
tors 1 which are indicators moulded
into the tread at several points .
The tyres are the only contact between
the vehicle and the road, so it is essen-
tial to keep them in good condition.
You must make sure that your tyres
con- form to local road traffic regula-
tions.
When the tread has worn down to the
wear warning strips,
these strips will
become visible 2: it is then necessary
to replace your tyres because the tread
rubber is now only 1.6 mm deep at
most, resulting in poor road holding
on wet roads.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys
by motorway, particularly in very hot
weather, or continual driving on poorly
surfaced minor roads will lead to more
rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
Incidents which occur when
driving, such as striking the
kerb, may damage the tyres
and wheel rims, and could
also lead to misalignment of the
front or rear axle geometry. In this
case, have the condition of these
checked by an approved dealer.

For your safety, please re-
spect the speed limit.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and profile
should be used on a single axle.
They must: either have a load ca-
pacity and a speed capacity at
least equal to the original tyres,
or correspond to those recom-
mended by your authorised
dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions
could endanger your safety and
affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-
ness.
Risk of loss of control of the ve-
hicle.
