Operation
The air bag system is only operational
when the ignition is switched on.
If a severe frontal impact occurs, the
air bag(s) deploy(s) rapidly, cushion -
ing the impact of the driver’s head and
chest against the steering wheel and
the front passenger’s head against the
dashboard. The air bag then deflates
immediately so that passengers are not
impeded in any way when they get out
of the vehicle.
Operating faults
This warning light 2 å will light up
on the instrument panel when the igni -
tion is switched on and then go out after
a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the ignition is
switched on, or comes on continuously
when the engine is running, there is a
fault in the system.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.

Puncture
Puncture
In the event of a puncture,
depending on the vehicle,
you will have:
An emergency spare wheel or tyre in -
flation kit (refer to the information on the
following pages).
emergency spare wheel 2
This is located in the luggage compart-
ment. To access it:
– open the tailgate;
– lift the luggage compartment carpet 1
(or depending on vehicle, hook it to
the bench seatback);

A
– remove the jack from its storage
space A;
– unscrew the central mounting 4;
– remove the tool kit 3 lifting it from
both sides;
– remove emergency spare wheel 2.
If the emergency spare
wheel has been stored
for several years, have it
checked by your Dealer to
ensure that it is safe to use.
Vehicles fitted with an
emergency spare wheel
smaller than the four
other wheels:
– Never fit more than one emer -
gency spare wheel to the same
vehicle.
– Replace the emergency spare
wheel as soon as possible with a
wheel with the same dimensions
as the original.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle,
which must only be a temporary
measure, the driving speed must
not exceed the speed indicated
on the label on the wheel.
– Fitting an emergency spare
wheel may alter the way the ve -
hicle usually runs. Avoid sudden
acceleration or deceleration and
reduce your speed when corner-
ing.
– If you need to use snow chains,
fit the emergency spare wheel to
the rear axle and check the tyre
pressure.

tYre PreSSure KIt (2/3)
Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, use the kit located in the
boot or underneath the luggage com -
partment carpet.
With the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
– unroll the hose from the container;
– connect the compressor hose 3 to
the container’s inlet 8;
– depending on the vehicle, connect
the container 8 to the compressor
from the container recess 7;
– unscrew the valve cap on the rel -
evant wheel and screw on the con -
tainer’s inflation adapter 1;
– adapter 2 must be connected to the
vehicle accessories socket;
– press switch 4 to inflate the tyre to
the recommended pressure (please
refer to the information in the section
on “Tyre pressure”);

Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.

If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.
– after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop
inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 5).
n ote: while the container is empty -
ing (approximately 30 seconds), the
pressure gauge 5 will briefly indicate
a pressure of up to 6 bar. The pres-
sure will then drop.
– adjust the pressure: to increase
it, continue inflation with the kit; to
reduce it, press button 6.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the ve-
hicle but contact an approved dealer.

t yre pressures
Tyre pressures must be adhered to (in-
cluding the emergency spare wheel).
Pressures must be checked at least
once a month and always before a
long journey (refer to the information on
“Tyre pressures”). Pressures should be checked when the
tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures
which may be reached in hot weather
or following a fast journey.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are
cold, the normal
pressures must be increased by 0.2 to
0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
never deflate a hot tyre.
note: a label (depending on country or
model) fixed to the edge or frame of the
driver’s door gives the recommended
tyre pressures.
Fitting new tyres
changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information on the
“Emergency spare wheel” and in -
structions on “Changing a wheel” in
Section 5.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– it may change the way it handles
when cornering;
– it may cause the steering to be
heavy;
– it may affect the use of snow
chains.
Please be aware that a
missing valve cap can
make the tyres less airtight
and lead to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre wear
and unusually hot running.
These are factors which
may seriously affect safety and lead
to:
– poor road holding;
– the risk of blow-outs or of throw-
ing a tread.
Tyre pressures depend on the load
and the driving speed. Adjust the
pressures according to the condi -
tions of use. (Refer to the informa -
tion on “Tyre pressures”).
