Preventing the engine from
standing by
In certain situations, such as negotiat-
ing a crossroads for instance, it is pos-
sible to keep the engine running so as
to be ready to move off quickly.
For vehicles equipped with manual
gearboxes:
Keep the clutch pedal pressed right
down
FUNCTION STOP AND START (1/3)
This system enables a reduced fuel
consumption and lower greenhouse
gas emissions. The system is activated
automatically when the vehicle is star-
ted.
While driving, the system stops the
engine (standby) when the vehicle is
at a standstill (traffic jam, traffic lights,
etc).
Conditions for engine
standby
The vehicle has set off from where it
was parked;
For vehicles equipped with manual
gearboxes:
– the gearbox is in neutral;
and
– the vehicle speed is less than ap-proximately 7 mph (3 km/h).
In all vehicles, the message «Auto
Stop» on the instrument panel appears
when the engine is on standby.
The vehicle equipment remain opera-
tional while the engine is stopped.
Engine on standby - braking
assistance is no longer ope-
rational.
Before getting out of the
vehicle, you must switch
off the ignition by pressing
the engine stop (please see
“Starting, stopping the engine”).
Do not drive off when the
engine is on standby (the
message “Auto Stop” is dis-
played on the instrument
panel).
Special feature of vehi-
cles equipped with an
electronic parking brake
If the engine is put on
standby (the message “Auto Stop”
is displayed on the instrument
panel), the electronic parking brake
is not applied automatically.
If the engine stalls while the system
is in operation, pressing the clutch
pedal right down will start it again.
Conditions for coming out of

SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with injection
equipment which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
If the message “Check anti-pollution
system” is displayed along with warn-
ing lights
Ä and ©, consult an
authorised dealer immediately.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Running out of fuel
If the tank has been completely
drained, the system must be reprimed
after the tank is refilled: see information
on the “fuel tank” in section 1 before re-
starting the engine.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
– ensure that the battery is always fully charged,
– always keep the diesel tank rela- tively full to avoid water vapour con-
densing in it and accumulating at the
bottom of the tank.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (1/3)
Fuel consumption is accredited in ac-
cordance with a standard regulatory
method. Identical for all manufactur-
ers, this enables vehicles to be com-
pared with one another. Consumption
in real time depends on vehicle usage
conditions, the equipment fitted and the
user’s driving style. To optimise fuel
consumption, please refer to the follow-
ing advice.
Depending on the vehicle, you will have
various functions which enable you to
lower your fuel consumption:
– gear change indicator;
– the journey record and eco-driving advice via the multimedia display;
If fitted on the vehicle, the navigation
system provides additional information.
Gear change indicator
To optimise consumption, a warning
light on the screen 1 tells you the best
time to change gear:
\ or to shift up a gear;
[ or to shift down a gear.
Journey record
Once the engine is switched off, you
will see “Journey record” displayed on
the screen 1 , enabling you to view in-
formation relating to your last journey.
This indicates:
– average fuel consumption;
– number of miles/kilometres travelled;
– number of miles/kilometres saved.1

If the vehicle is equipped with the func-
tion, this system monitors the tyre pres-
sure.
Operating principleEach wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure. The system informs
the driver via the display 1 and on-
board computer 2 that the tyres are suf-
ficiently inflated and warns if they are
underinflated or leaking. The warning
light 4
on the instrument panel
comes on to warn the driver if the pres-
sure is too low. It should always be done after checking
the tyre pressure of all four tyres when
cold.
Tyre pressures must correspond to the
current usage of the vehicle (empty,
carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.).
With the ignition on:
– Make short presses on the control
3
to select the tyre pressure display
(see “On-board computer: settings”
in Section 1);
– press and hold (around 3 seconds) the button 3 to launch the reset. A
flashing tyre followed by the mes-
sage “Pressure ref Ongoing” indi-
cates that the request to learn the
reference pressure has been taken
into account;
– reset can take several minutes of driving.
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (1/4)

Resetting the standard level
for the tyre pressures
This should be done:
– when the standard tyre pressure needs to be changed to adapt to
usage conditions (empty, carrying a
load, motorway driving, etc.);
– after swapping wheels over (how- ever this practice is not recom-
mended);
– after changing a wheel.
This function is an additio-
nal driving aid.
However, the function does
not take the place of the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vig-
ilance or the responsibility of the
driver.
Check the tyre pressures, including
the emergency spare wheel, once a
month.

Display
The warning light 4 on the in-
strument panel along with the display 1,
and messages on the display 2 indicate
any tyre pressure faults (flat tyre, punc-
tured tyre, system fault, etc.).
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (2/4)
1“Puncture”
The wheel A, together with the warn-
ing light 4
, indicates that the af-
fected wheel is punctured or severely
underinflated. Replace it or contact an
authorised dealer if it is punctured. Top
up the tyre pressure if the wheel is de-
flated.
This message appears along with the
® warning light.
“Adjust tyre pressure”
A coloured wheel A, together with the
warning light 4
, indicates a flat
tyre.
Check and, if necessary, readjust the
pressures of the four wheels when cold.
While driving the warning light 4
goes off after a few minutes.
A
2
Warning light ® re-
quires you to stop immedi-
ately, for your own safety,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
The sudden loss of pressure in a
tyre (burst tyre, etc.) cannot be de-
tected by the system.

Readjustment of tyre
pressures
The tyre pressures must be adjusted
when cold (please refer to the label lo-
cated on the edge of the driver’s door).
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, the recom-
mended pressures must be increased
by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Emergency spare wheel
If the vehicle is equipped with an emer-
gency spare wheel, it will not have
a sensor. When it is fitted to the ve-
hicle, the message “CHECK TYRE
PRESSURE SENSORS” is displayed
on the instrument panel.
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (4/4)
CD
EF
To mark the correct position of the
wheel, note the colour of the ring 6
(after cleaning, if necessary) on each
valve:
C yellow ring
D black ring
E red ring
F green ring
Each of the sensors incorporated in the valves 5 is dedicated to a single
wheel: under no circumstances should you swap the wheels, without re-
setting the system.
There is a risk of incorrect information which could have serious conse-\
quences.
Tyre repair product and
inflation kit
Because the valves are specially de-
signed, only use equipment approved
by the approved network.

The traction control system offers ad-
ditional safety. It is recommended that
you do not drive with the function di-
sabled. Correct this as soon as pos-
sible by pressing the switch 1 again.
Note: the function is reactivated auto-
matically when the ignition is switched
on or when a speed of approximately
24 mph (40 km/h) is exceeded.
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault the message “Check brak-
ing system” appears on the instrument
panel along with the
© warning
light.
Consult an approved dealer.
Braking anticipation
Depending on the vehicle, when you
rapidly release the accelerator, the
system anticipates the braking ma-
noeuvre in order to reduce stopping
distances.
Special cases
When using the cruise control:
– if you use the accelerator, when you release it, the system may be trig-
gered;
– if you do not use the accelerator, the system will not be triggered.
DRIVER CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS (3/4)
Disabling the traction control
system
In some situations (driving on very wet
ground: snow, mud, etc. or driving with
snow chains fitted), the system may
reduce the engine output to limit wheel-
spin. If this is not required, it is possible
to deactivate the function by pressing
switch 1.
The message “Traction control off” is
displayed on the instrument panel to
inform you.
