KEY, RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL: general information (2/2)
Radio frequency remote
control operating range
This varies according to the surroun-
dings: take care not to lock or unlock
the doors by inadvertently pressing the
buttons on the remote control.
Note: If a door or the luggage compart-
ment lid is open or not closed properly,
the doors and luggage compartment lid

Interference
Interference by factors in the imme-
diate vicinity (external installations or
the use of equipment operating on the
same frequency as the remote control)
may affect the operation of the remote
control.
Replacement and additional keys
or remote controls.
You must only contact an approved
dealer:
– If you need to replace a key it will be necessary to take the vehicle
and all of its keys to an approved
Dealer in order to initialise the
system.
– Depending on the vehicle, you have the option of using up to
four remote controls.
Remote control unit failure
Make sure that the correct battery
type is being used, and that the bat-
tery is in good condition and inser-
ted correctly. These batteries have
a service life of approximately two
years.
Refer to Section 5: “Radio fre-
quency remote control: batteries”
for the battery changing procedure.
The key must not be used for any
function other than those described
in the handbook (removing the cap
from a bottle, etc.).
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or locking the
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.

1.8
Locking/unlocking from the
outside
This is done using the remote con-
trol: please refer to the information on
“Radio frequency remote control: gen-
eral information” in Section 1.
In some cases, the radio frequency
remote control may not work:
– if the remote control battery is worn or flat, etc.
– if appliances are operating on the same frequency as the remote con-
trol (mobile phone, etc.);
– vehicle located in a high electromag- netic radiation zone.
It is then possible:
– use the radio frequency remote con- trol key or the emergency key to
unlock the front left-hand door;
– to use the interior door locking/un- locking control (refer to the following
pages).

Door and tailgate status
indicator
With the ignition on, the warning light
integrated in switch 2 informs you of the
locking status of the opening elements:
– indicator light on, the doors and tail- gate are locked,
– indicator light off, the doors and tail- gate are unlocked.
When you lock the doors, the indicator
light remains lit and then goes out.
Locking the opening

Driver’s responsibility
If you decide to keep the
doors locked when you are
driving, remember that it
may be more difficult for those as-
sisting you to gain access to the
passenger compartment in the
event of an emergency.

1.22
Power Assisted Steering
Never drive with an inadequately
charged battery.
Variable power assisted
steering
The variable power assisted steering
system is equipped with an electronic
control system which alters the level of
assistance to suit the vehicle speed.
Steering is made easier when ma-
noeuvring (for added comfort) while the
force needed to steer increases pro-
gressively as the speed rises (for en-
hanced safety at high speeds).
Steering wheel height
adjustment
Lower the lever 1 and place the steer-
ing wheel in the required position; raise
the lever beyond the point of resistance
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.
STEERING WHEEL/POWER-ASSISTED STEERING
1
Never switch off the igni-
tion when travelling down-
hill, and avoid doing so in
normal driving (assistance
is not provided).
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.
Never leave the steering wheel at
full lock while stationary.

External temperature
indicator
Special note:
When the exterior temperature is - 3°C
to + 3°C, the °C characters flash (sig-
nalling a risk of ice on the road).
External temperature in-
dicator
As ice formation is related
to climatic exposure, local
air humidity and temperature, the
external temperature alone is not
sufficient to detect ice.

If the power supply is cut (battery disconnected, supply wire cut, etc.\
), the clock
must be reset.
We recommend that you do not adjust these settings while driving.

FUNCTION STOP AND START (3/4)
Conditions preventing the
standby of the engine
Certain conditions prevent the system
from using the engine standby function,
including when:
– reverse gear is engaged;
– the bonnet is not locked;
– the outdoor temperature is too low or too high (less than around 0 °C or
higher than around 30 °C);
– the battery is not sufficiently charged;
– the difference between the vehicle interior temperature and the auto-
matic climate control instruction is
too high;
– for vehicles with automatic gear- boxes, the gradient is steeper than
approximately 5%;
– the “Clear View” function is activated (please see “Automatic Climate
Control” in Section 3); – the engine temperature is too low;
– the emission control system is being
regenerated;
or
– ...
Warning light
 is displayed on the
instrument panel. This notifies you that
engine standby is not available.
Deactivate the Stop and
Start function when per-
forming any operations in
the engine compartment.
Special feature of the automatic
engine re-start
Under certain conditions, the engine
can restart on its own in order to guar-
antee your safety and comfort.
This can occur especially when:
– the outdoor temperature is too low or too high (less than around 0 °C or
higher than around 30 °C);
– the “Clear View” function is activated (please see “Automatic Climate
Control” in Section 3);
– the battery is not sufficiently charged;
– the vehicle speed is above 3 mph (5 km/h) (downhill slope, etc.); ;
– repeated pressing on the brake pedal or braking system require-
ment;
– ...
Special note: for some of these
conditions, automatic restarting of
the engine is deactivated if a front
door or the tailgate is open.

2.15
ENVIRONMENT
Your vehicle has been designed with
respect for the environment in mind for
its entire service life: during production,
use and at the end of its life.
This commitment is illustrated by the of
the manufacturer eco² signature.
Manufacture
Your vehicle has been manufactured at
a factory which complies with a policy
to reduce the environmental impact
on the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and energy consumption, visual
and noise pollution, atmospheric emis-
sions and waste water; sorting and re-
using waste).
Emissions
In usage phase, your vehicle was de-
signed to emit fewer greenhouse gases
(CO2) and therefore consume less fuel.
Our vehicles are also equipped with a
particle filter system including a cata-
lytic converter, an oxygen sensor and
an active carbon filter (the latter pre-
vents vapour from the fuel tank being
released into the open air).
Please make your own
contribution towards
protecting the environment
too
– Worn parts replaced in the course of routine vehicle maintenance (vehi-
cle battery, oil filter, air filter, batter-
ies, etc.) and oil containers (empty or
filled with used oil) must be disposed
of through specialist organisations.
– At the end of the vehicle’s service life, it should be sent to approved
centres to ensure that it is recycled.
– In all cases, comply with local legis- lation.
Recycling
Your vehicle is 85% recyclable and
95% recoverable.
To achieve these objectives, many of
the vehicle components have been de-
signed to enable them to be recycled.
The materials and structures have
been carefully designed to allow these
components to be easily removed and
reprocessed by specialist companies.
In order to preserve raw material re-
sources, this vehicle incorporates nu-
merous parts made from recycled plas-
tics or renewable materials (vegetable
or animal-derived materials such as
cotton or wool).
