EXTERIOR LIGHTING AND SIGNALS (2/3)
Switching off the lights
There are two possibilities:
– manually, move ring 2 to position 0;
– automatically, if the ring 2 is in
AUTO position and if the main beam
headlights are not switched on. The
lights will go out automatically when
the engine is switched off, the dri-
ver’s door is opened or the vehicle
is locked. In this case, the next time
the engine is started, the lights will
be switched back on according to the
position of the ring 2, taking into ac-
count the exterior light level, without
moving the stalk 1.
Lights-on reminder buzzer
A warning beep sounds when the driv-
er’s door is opened to warn you that the
lights are still on.
gFront fog lights
Turn the centre ring 4 on the
stalk 1 until the symbol is opposite
mark 3, then release it.
Operation of the fog lights depends on
the exterior lighting position selected,
and an indicator light will light up on the
instrument panel.
Cornering lights function
Whenever the dipped beam headlights
are on and under certain conditions (at
speed, the steering wheel at an angle,
in forward gear, the indicator lights on,
etc.), when taking a corner one of the
front fog lights will come on to light the
inside of the bend.

áMain beam headlights
With the engine running and
the dipped beam headlights on, push

ment panel comes on.
To return to the dipped headlight posi-
tion, pull stalk 1 towards you again.

éHazard warning lights
Press switch 2.
This switch activates all four direction
indicators and the side indicator lights
simultaneously. It must only be used in
an emergency to warn drivers of other
vehicles that you have had to stop in
an area where stopping is prohibited or
unexpected, or that you are obliged to
drive under special conditions.
Depending on the vehicle, the hazard
warning lights may come on auto-
matically under heavy deceleration.
You can switch them off by pressing
switch 2 once.
Direction indicators
Move stalk 1 parallel to the steering
wheel and in the direction you are going
to turn it.
One-touch mode
When driving, it is possible that the
steering wheel may not be turned suf-
ficiently to return the stalk automatically
to its starting position.
In this case, move the stick 1 to half-
way, then release it: it will return to its
initial position and the indicator light
flashes three times.
Horn
Press steering wheel boss A.
Headlight flasher

FUEL TANK (2/2)
Filling with fuel
With the ignition off, insert the nozzle
and insert it fully before turning it on to
fill the fuel tank (risk of splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position through-
out the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi-
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The cover A and its
surround must remain clean.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
Vehicle fitted with the Stop and
Start function
To fill up with fuel, the engine must
be stopped (and not on standby):
stop the engine (please refer to the
information on “Starting and stop-
ping the engine” in Section 2).
Persistent fuel odour
If you notice a persistent
fuel odour you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as traf- fic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
– switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and stay clear
of the traffic;
– contact an approved Dealer.
No modifications what-
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (electronic units,
wiring, fuel circuit, injectors, pro-
tective covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (unless undertaken by
qualified Network personnel).
