AUTOMATIC GEARBOX (1/3)
2
Operation
With gear lever 1 in position P, start the
engine.
To move out of position P, you must de-
press the brake pedal before pressing
the unlocking button 2.
With your foot on the brake pedal
(warning light
c on the display goes
out), move the lever out of position P.
Only engage D or R when the vehi-
cle is stopped, with your foot on the
brake, the accelerator pedal released
and the engine running.
1B
Selector lever 1
P: park
R: reverse
N: Neutral
D: automatic mode
M: manual mode
+: upper gear
–: lower gear
The gear engaged is displayed on the
instrument panel B and on the dis-
play A.
Note: press button 2 to go from position
D or N to R or P.
Driving in automatic mode
Put lever 1 into position D.
In most road conditions you will en-
counter, you will not need to touch your
lever again: the gears will change au-
tomatically at the right time and at the
most suitable engine speed because
the automatic system takes into ac-
count the vehicle load and road contour
and adjusts itself to the particular driv-
ing style you have chosen.
Economical driving
When driving, always leave the lever
in position D, keeping the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed to ensure auto-
matic gear changes at a lower engine
speed.
Accelerating and overtaking
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully (so that it goes beyond the
kickdown point).
This will enable you to change down
to the optimum gear within the
engine range.

Special circumstances
– If the bends and road surface do
not allow you to stay in automatic
mode (e.g. in the mountains), we
recommend that you change to
manual mode. This will prevent the
automatic gearbox from changing
gear repeatedly when climbing, and
permit engine braking on long de-
scents.
– In cold weather , start the engine
and wait a few seconds before
moving the selector lever from posi-
tion P or N and engaging it in D or R
to prevent the engine stalling.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special casesIn certain driving conditions (result-
ing in, for example, engine protection,
operation of the Electronic Stability
Control programme: ESC etc.) the au-
tomated system may change the gear
automatically.
Likewise, to prevent incorrect manoeu-
vres, a gear change may be refused by
the automatic system: in this case the
gear display flashes for a few seconds
as a warning.
AUTOMATIC GEARBOX (2/3)
Driving in manual mode
Move the selector lever 1 to position D,
then move the lever to the right into po-
sition M.
Shifting the lever repeatedly allows you
to change gears manually:
– to move down through the gears, push the lever forwards;
– to move up through the gears, push the lever backwards.
1
When facing uphill, to remain
stopped, do not keep your foot on
the accelerator.
Risk of overheating the automatic
gearbox.
Check that the indicator
light P on the instrument
panel is activated before
leaving the vehicle.
Risk of loss of immobilisation of
the vehicle

MULTI-SENSE (1/2)
The Multi-Sense system enables once
of five modes to be selected which, de-
pending on the vehicle, affect the drive,
the light environment, the comfort and
the engine noise:
– modes Comfort , Neutral, Eco and Sport are preset and associated with
customisable light environments and
engine noise;
– mode Perso is fully customisable.
The drive modes affect the:
– power-assisted steering;
– engine and gearbox responsiveness;
– heating level.
They also affect the:
– passenger compartment and instru- ment panel lighting;
– instrument panel and multifunction screen information;
– engine noise;
– massage seat.
After each start-up, the vehicle uses the
mode set at the time the engine was
last switched off.
Mode Comfort
This mode favours smooth steering.
The interior environment is softened.
Mode Neutral
Default mode, mode Neutral selects the
vehicle factory settings.
Mode Eco
Mode Eco is geared towards saving
energy and the environment. The
steering is smooth, engine and gearbox
management enable fuel consumption
to be lowered. Air conditioning is man-
aged to be used only when necessary.
Please refer to the information on
“Driving advice, Eco-driving” in
Section 2.
Multi-Sense
Sport Eco
Neutral Comfort Perso
In all modes, it is possible to change
the colour of the ambient lighting as
well as the format of the information
displayed on the instrument panel
and multifunction display.
You can also reset to the default set-
tings.

MULTI-SENSE (2/2)
Sport mode
This mode enables an increased re-
sponsiveness from the engine and the
gearbox. The steering is firmer.
Mode Perso
This mode enables you to manually
configure the drive, light environment
and, depending on the vehicle, the
comfort and engine noise.3
Stopping the engine in Sport
mode, or Perso mode with engine
setting in Sport mode.
When you restart the vehicle, a mes-
sage asks you if you wish to keep
the engine setting in Sportmode.
Accessing the menu
You can access Multi-Sense, depend-
ing on the vehicle:
– from the multifunction screen 1.
Select menu “Vehicle” then “Multi-
Sense”;
– using switch 2;
– using button Eco 3 which automati-
cally launches Eco mode and opens
the “Multi-Sense” menu on the multi-
function screen 1 for a few seconds.

MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING (1/3)
Switching air conditioning on
or off
The air conditioning is switched on (in-
dicator light on) or off (indicator light off)
using the control 3.
The air conditioning system is used
for:
– lowering the temperature inside the
passenger compartment;
– eliminating condensation more quickly.
Indicators
The following indicators are displayed
on the multimedia screen A:
8 Air temperature.

Clear View functionPress the control 1: the integrated indi-
cator light in the button comes on.
This function quickly demists and de-
ices the windscreen, the rear screen,
the front side windows, and the exte-
rior rear view mirrors (depending on the
vehicle). The air conditioning and rear
screen de-icing functions must be ac-
tivated.
MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING (3/3)
Varying the ventilation speedYou can adjust the fan speed by press-
ing the controls 6 or 7 to increase or
reduce the fan speed.
The system is deactivated (OFF): the
ventilation speed is zero (vehicle sta-
tionary). You can, however, still feel
a slight flow of air when the vehicle is
moving.
Stopping the system
To switch off the system, press the
control 7 several times until the mes-
sage “OFF” appears on the multimedia
screen.
You may, however, feel a slight flow of
air when the vehicle is moving.76
Prolonged use of air recirculation can lead to condensation forming on t\
he side windows and windscreen, and discomfort due
to the use of non-renewed air in the passenger compartment. We therefore advise you to return to normal mode (external air)
as soon as the air recirculation function is no longer required, by pres\
sing the control 4 again.
Switching the air
recirculation on
Press the control 4: the integrated in-
dicator light in the button comes on.
Under these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle. Air recircula-
tion operates as follows:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter- nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.);
– lowering the passenger compart- ment temperature as quickly as pos-
sible.

Automatic mode
The automatic climate control system
guarantees comfort in the passen-
ger compartment and good visibility
(except in the event of extreme condi-
tions), while optimising consumption.
The system controls the ventilation
speed, air distribution, air recirculation,
and starting and stopping the air condi-
tioning and air temperature.
This mode consists of a choice of three
programmes:
NORMAL : allows the selected comfort
level to be best attained, depending on
the exterior conditions. Press button 4
or key 9.
SOFT: reaches the desired comfort
level more gently and silently. Press
button 8.
FAST: increases the flow of air in the
passenger compartment. This mode
is recommended in particular to opti-
mise comfort in the rear seats. Press
