åAirbag warning light
This lights up when the ignition
is switched on and goes out after a few
seconds.
If it does not come on when the igni-
tion is switched on, or comes on when
the engine is running, there is a fault in
the system.
Contact your approved Dealer as soon
as possible.
MLow fuel level warning light
This lights up when the ignition
is switched on, alongside a beep, and
goes out after a few seconds.
If it comes on when driving and is ac-
companied by a beep, fill up with fuel
as soon as possible. There is only ap-
proximately 30 miles (50 km) worth of
fuel left.
A
If no lights or sounds are ap-
parent, this indicates a fault
in the instrument panel. This
indicates that it is essential
to stop immediately (as soon as traf-
fic conditions allow). Ensure that the
vehicle is correctly immobilised and
contact an approved Dealer.
Instrument panel A: lights up when the
ignition is switched on.
With the lights on, you can adjust the
brightness by turning the knob 1.
Warning light © means you
should drive very carefully to an
authorised dealer as soon as
possible. Failure to follow this rec-
ommendation risks damaging your
vehicle.
Warning light ® re-
quires you to stop immedi-
ately, for your own safety,
as soon as traffic conditions
allow. Switch off the engine and do
not restart it. Contact an approved
Dealer.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using fuel or lubrication additives which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition system, running out of fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
– loss of power,
as they may cause the catalytic con-
verter to overheat and thus reduce its
efficiency, or damage it irreparably
and cause heat damage to the vehi-
cle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved
Dealer at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter,
do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
keep trying to start the engine, but con-
tact an approved Dealer.
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 con-
tact with the hot exhaust system.

Mode ECO
ECO mode is a function which opti-
mises fuel consumption. It acts on all
elements which consume fuel (engine
power, heating and/or air conditioning,
etc).Activating the function
Press the switch 3.
The warning light
comes on on
the instrument panel to confirm activa-
tion.
While driving, it is possible to leave the
ECO mode temporarily in order to im-
prove engine performance.
To do this, press the accelerator pedal
firmly and fully.
ECO mode is reactivated when you
take pressure off the accelerator pedal.
Disabling the function
Press the switch 3.
The warning light
goes out on
the instrument panel to confirm deac-
tivation.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (2/4)
An overall rating from 0 to 100 is dis-
played to let you assess your eco driv-
ing performance. The higher the score,
the better your eco-driving perform-
ance.
Eco advice is given to help improve
your performance.
With your favourite journeys saved, you
can evaluate your performance.
For more information, please see the
multimedia system instructions.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (4/4)
Advice on use
– Favour the ECO mode.
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the brim to avoid overflow.
– In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es-
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping to preserve
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack fitted to the vehicle.
– Avoid using the car for door-to-door calls (short journeys with long waits
in between) because the engine
never reaches its normal operating
temperature.
Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres can increase fuel consumption.

Breakdown of a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox
Please refer to the information on
“Towing” in Section 5.
When setting off, if the lever is locked
in position P, even though you are de-
pressing the brake pedal and pressing
the unlocking button 2, the lever can
still be released manually.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (4/4)
Operating faults
When three horizontal bars on the dis-
play 3 come on accompanied by the
warning light
© or ®, this in-
dicates a gearbox fault. Contact an au-
thorised dealer as soon as possible. To do this, unclip the base of the gear
lever
5 starting on the side below the
air conditioning controls. Then raise the
button 6 and simultaneously press the
unlock button 2 on the lever.
For safety reasons, do not
switch off the ignition before
the vehicle has come to a
complete standstill.

Switching air conditioning on
or off
The air conditioning is switched on
(warning light on) or off (warning light
off) using button 2.
The system cannot be switched on if
the control 3 is set to “0”.
The air conditioning system is used
for:
– lowering the temperature inside the
passenger compartment;
– eliminating condensation more quickly.
The controls(depending on vehicle)
1 Distribution of air in the passenger compartment.
2 Air conditioning.
3 Adjusting the ventilation speed.
4 De-icing/demisting of the rear screen and, depending on the vehicle, the
door mirrors.
5 Adjusting the air temperature.
6 Air recirculation.

Vehicles fitted with the ECO
mode (switch 7): when activated,
ECO mode can reduce the perform-
ance of the heating and/or air condi-
tioning. Please refer to the informa-
tion on “Driving advice, Eco-driving”
in Section 2.
Page 125 of 228

Air recirculation is for:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter-
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.).
– to bring the passenger compartment
to the desired temperature as quickly
as possible.Switching the air
recirculation on
Push the control 6 to the left. In these
conditions, air is taken from the pas-
senger compartment and is recycled,
with no air being taken from outside the
vehicle.
MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING, HEATING SYSTEM (2/3)
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 pressing the button 6 again.
53124Distribution of air in the
passenger compartment
Turn the control 1 to choose the distri-
bution option.
WThe air flow is directed to the
windscreen and the front side
window demisting vents.
iThe air flow is distributed be-
tween all the air vents, the
front side window demisting vents, the
windscreen demisting vents and the
footwells.
óThe air flow is directed mainly
towards the footwells.
GThe air flow is directed towards
the dashboard air vents and
the front footwells.
JAll the air flow is directed to the
dashboard vents.
