Clear View function
Press button 3 – the integrated indica-
tor light comes on.
This function quickly demists and de-
ices the windscreen, the rear screen, 
the front side windows, and the door 
mirrors (depending on the vehicle). The 
air conditioning and rear screen de-ic-
ing functions must be activated.
Press button 8 to stop the heated rear 
screen operating, and the integrated in-
dicator goes out.
To exit this function, press button 3 
or 1.
AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (2/4)
ØThe air flow is distributed be-
tween all the air vents, the 
front side window demisting air vents 
and the windscreen demisting vents.
½The air flow is mainly directed 
to the dashboard air vents.
¿The air flow is directed mainly 
towards the footwells.
Adjusting the distribution 
of air in the passenger 
compartment
Press one of the buttons 4 . The in-
tegrated warning light in the button 
comes on.
It is possible to combine two positions 
simultaneously – press both buttons  4.

Air recirculation (isolation of 
the passenger compartment) 
K
This function is managed automatically 
(operation is confirmed by a warning 
light on button 7), but you can also acti-
vate it manually.
NB:
–  during recirculation, air is taken from the passenger compartment and 
is recycled, with no air being taken 
from outside the vehicle;
–  air recirculation allows the external  atmosphere to be cut off (when driv-
ing in polluted areas, etc.);
–  the recirculation of air makes it pos- sible to reach the desired passenger 
compartment temperature quicker.
1
The demisting/de-icing will still take 
priority over the air recirculation.
Manual use
Press button 7 – the integrated indica-
tor light comes on.
Prolonged use of this position may lead 
to odours, caused by non-renewal of 
air, and the formation of condensation 
on the windows.
We therefore advise you to return to au-
tomatic mode as soon as air recircula-
tion is no longer needed, by pressing 
button 7.
To exit this function, press button  7 
again. Stopping the system
Turn the control 6 to “OFF” to stop the 
system. To start it, turn the control 
6 
again, then adjust the fan speed or 
press the button 1.

Open the driver’s door to read it.
Tyre pressures should be checked 
when the tyres are cold.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked 
when the tyres are cold, increase the 
pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI). 
Never deflate a hot tyre.

TYRE INFLATION KIT (2/4)
In the event of a puncture, use the kit 
situated under the passenger footwell 1 
by unscrewing the two screws  2.With the engine running and the 
parking brake applied,
–  Connect the compressor hose 4  to 
the container inlet  9;
–  remove the cap from the container  inflation adapter  3;
–  unscrew the valve cap on the rele- vant wheel and screw on the contai-
ner’s inflation adapter  3;
– disconnect any accessories pre- viously connected to the vehicle’s 
accessories sockets;
–  the end piece  7 must be plugged in 
to the vehicle accessories socket;
563
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.
9
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.
– press switch  5 to inflate the tyre to 
the recommended pressure (please 
refer to the information on “Tyre in-
flation pressure” in Section 4);
–  after a maximum of 15 minutes, stop  inflating and read the pressure (on 
pressure gauge  6).
Note: While the container empties  (approx. 30 secs), the pressure 
gauge  6 briefly shows pressure up to 
6 bar, then the pressure drops.
– Adjust the pressure: to increase  it, continue inflation with the kit; to 
reduce it, press button 8.

Tyre pressuresAdhere to the tyre pressures. The tyre 
pressures should be checked at least 
once a month and additionally before 
any long journey (refer to the label af-
fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).
The pressures should be checked cold: 
ignore higher pressures which may be 
reached in hot weather or following a 
high speed journey.Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure 
loss warning system
If under-inflated (puncture, low pres-
sure, etc.), the warning light 
 
on the instrument panel comes on. 
See “Tyre pressure loss warning” in 
Section 2.
Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out 
by a specialist. Fitting differ-
ent 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.
If the pressures cannot be checked 
when the tyres are  cold, increase the 
pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Changing wheels around
TYRES (2/3)
Please be aware that a 
poorly tightened or miss-
ing 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,
–  risk of bursting or tread separa- tion.
The pressure depends on the load 
and the speed of use. Adjust the 
pressure according to the condi-
tions of use (refer to the label affixed 
to the edge of the driver’s door).
The front and rear wheels 
have different dimensions. 
For safety reasons, it is not 
permitted to switch the front 
wheels (tyres and/or rims) with the 
rear wheels.

TOWING: breakdown recovery (1/2)
Towing a vehicle with an 
automatic gearbox
With the engine switched off, the trans-
mission is no longer lubricated. It is 
preferable to tow this type of vehicle on 
a trailer or tow it with the rear wheels off 
the ground.
In exceptional circumstances, you 
may tow it with all four wheels on the 
ground, only in a forward gear, with the 
gear in neutral position  N, over a maxi-
mum distance of 31 miles (50 km) and 
not exceeding a speed of 15.5 mph 
(25 km/h).
If the gear lever cannot be put into the 
N position, please consult an autho-
rised dealer.1
2
Before any towing, put the gears into 
neutral (neutral position for vehicles 
equipped with a manual gearbox or N 
position for vehicles equipped with an 
automatic gearbox).
Unlock the steering column; the igni-
tion key must be in “ M” position (ig-
nition) to enable signalling (“Stop” 
lights, hazard warning lights, etc.). 
Always switch on the lights when 
driving at night.
Release the parking brake.
It is also essential to observe the towing 
regulations imposed by current legisla-
tion in your country. Please contact an 
authorised dealer.
When the engine is 
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op-
erational.
Do not remove the key from 
the ignition when the vehi-
cle is being towed.
3
If the lever is locked in position P , 
even though you are depressing the 
brake pedal and pressing the unlock-
ing button 1 , the lever can still be re-
leased manually. To do this, unclip the 
base of the gear lever  2 starting on the 
side below the air conditioning controls. 
Then raise the button 3  and simulta-
neously press the unlock button  1 on 
the lever.
Contact an authorised dealer as soon 
as possible.

On the roadPOSSIBLE CAUSESWHAT TO DO
Vibrations. Tyres not inflated to the correct pres-
sure, incorrectly balanced or dam-
aged. Check the tyre pressures: if this is not the 
problem, have them checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.
Coolant boiling in the coolant reservoir. Mechanical fault: damaged cylinder 
head gasket.Stop the engine.
Contact an approved Dealer.
Smoke under the bonnet. Short circuit or cooling system leak.Stop, switch off the ignition, stand away 
from the vehicle and contact an approved 
dealer.
The oil pressure warning light comes 
on:
while cornering or braking The level is too low. Top up the engine oil level (refer to the in-
formation on “Engine oil level: topping up/
filling” in Section 4).
