action also deactivates the traction con-
trol.
The E.S.P. offers additional safety, it
is recommended that you do not drive
with the function disabled. Correct this
by pressing switch 2 again.
The E.S.P. is automatically reactivated
when the ignition is switched on.

Emergency brake assist
This is an additional system to ABS
which helps reduce vehicle stopping
distances.
operating principle
The system detects an emergency
braking situation. In this case, the brak-
ing assistance immediately develops
maximum power and may trigger ABS
regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is not released.

Cruise control
cRUISE coNtRoL - SPEED LIMItER: cruise control function (1/4)
The cruise control function
is in no way linked to the
braking system.
This function is an addi -
tional driving aid. However,
the function does not take
the place of the driver.
Therefore, it can under no circum -
stances replace the driver’s respon -
sibility to respect speed limits and to
be vigilant (the driver must always
be ready to brake).
Cruise control must not be used
in heavy traffic, on winding or slip -
pery roads (black ice, aquaplan -
ing, gravel) and during bad weather
(fog, rain, side winds etc.).
There is a risk of accidents.

The cruise control function helps you to
maintain your driving speed at a speed
that you choose, called the cruising
speed.
This cruising speed may be set at any
speed above 20 mph (30 km/h).

Switching off the function
The cruise control function is deacti -
vated if you press switch 1: in this case
a speed is no longer memorised.
The
 and  indicator lights on the
instrument panel go out, confirming that
the function is deactivated.
Recalling the cruising speed
If a speed is stored, it can be recalled,
once you are sure that the road condi -
tions are suitable (traffic, road surface,
weather conditions, etc.).
With a vehicle speed above 20 mph (30
km/h), press switch 5 (R).
Note: if the speed previously stored is
much higher than the current speed,
the vehicle will accelerate more rapidly
to reach this threshold.
When the cruise control is set to
standby, pressing switch 2 (+) re -
activates the cruise control func -
tion without taking into account
the stored speed: it is the speed at
which the vehicle is moving that is
taken into account.Putting the cruise control
on standby or switching it
off does not cause a rapid
reduction in speed: you
must brake by depressing the brake
pedal.
Putting the function on
standby
The function is suspended when you:
– button 4 (O);
– depress the brake pedal;
– the clutch pedal or shift into neutral
if the vehicle has an automatic gear-
box.
In all three cases, the cruising speed
remains memorised and the message
“SPEED MEMORY” appears on the in-
strument panel.
Standby is confirmed when the green
 indicator light goes out.

Conditions of use
Immobilise the vehicle on a flat, level
surface (never with the wheel on the
pavement).
Apply the handbrake.
Temperature above -10°C.
Perform the operation with the engine
running if possible (risk of discharging
the battery).
To prevent the system from overheat -
ing, it cuts out automatically. It becomes

with the key or remote con-
trol inside and never leave a
child (or a pet) unsupervised, even
for a short while.
He/she may be able to operate the

levelS (2/3)
Brake fluid level
This should be checked frequently,
and immediately if you notice even the
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground. level 2
It is normal for the level to drop as the
brake shoes become worn, but it must
never drop lower than the
“Min” warn-
ing line.
If you wish to check the disc and drum
wear yourself, you should obtain the
document explaining the checking pro-
cedure from our network or from the
manufacturer’s website. t
opping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our
Technical Department (and taken from
a sealed container).
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
The engine may be hot
when working in close prox-
imity. In addition, the engine
cooling fan may start at any
moment.
Risk of injury.When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in the park position.

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
