Even though outside temperatures are above
freez in

g, some roads and bridges may be icy. ●
At out s

ide temperatures above +4°C
(+39°F), even when the “ice crystal symbol”
is not visible, there may still be patches of ice
on the road.
● Do not rely on the outside temperature in-
dicator! Note
● Diff erent

versions of the instrument panel
are available and therefore the versions and
instructions on the display may vary. In the
case of displays without warning or informa-
tion texts, faults are indicated exclusively by
the warning lamps.
● Depending on the equipment, some set-
tings
and instructions can also be carried out
in the Easy Connect system.
● When several warnings are active at the
same time, the symbol
s are shown succes-
sively for a few seconds and will stay on until
the fault is rectified. Rev counter
The rev counter indicates the number of en-
gine r

lutions per minute ››› Fig. 124 1 .
T og
ether w
ith the gear-change indicator, the
rev counter offers you the possibility of using
the engine of your vehicle at a suitable
speed. The start of the red zone on the dial indicates
the maximum en

gine speed which may be
used briefly when the engine is warm and af-
ter it has been run in properly. Before reach-
ing this range, you should change to a higher
gear for vehicles with a manual gearbox or for
automatic gearboxes put the selector lever in
“D” or take your foot off the accelerator ped-
al.
We recommend that you avoid high revs and
that you follow the recommendations on the
gear-change indicator. Consult the additional
information in ›››
 page 39, Gear-change
indicator. CAUTION
Never allow the rev counter needle 1 ›››
Fig. 124 to g o int
o the red zone on the
scale for more than a very brief period, other-
wise there is a risk of engine damage. For the sake of the environment
Changing up a gear early will help you to save
fuel and minimi

se emissions and engine
noise. 115

There are red warning symbols (priority 1)
and yellow warning symbols (priority 2).
Warning messages, Priority 1 (red)
If one of these faults occurs, the warning
lamp will light up or flash and will be accom-
panied by three audible warnings. This is a
danger warning. Stop the vehicle and switch
off the engine. Check the fault and correct it.
Obtain professional assistance if necessary.
If several priority 1 faults are detected at the
same time, the symbols will be displayed one
after the other for about 2 seconds at a time
and will continue until the fault is corrected.
No menus will be shown in the display for the
duration of a priority 1 warning message.
Examples of priority 1 warning messages

If one of these faults occurs, the correspond-
ing warning lamp lights up and is accompa-
nied by an audible warning. Check the corre-
sponding function as soon as possible al-
though the vehicle may be used without risk.
If several priority 2 warning messages are de-

necessary, switch on the hazard warning
lamps and put out the warning triangle to ad-
vise other drivers.
● Before opening the bonnet, switch off the
engine and al

● An incorr ect

use of the keys can cause seri-
ous injuries.
● Never leave children or disabled persons in
the vehic
le. In case of emergency, they may
not be able to leave the vehicle or manage on
their own.
● An uncontrolled use of the key could start
the engine or activat
e any electric equipment
(e.g. electric windows), causing risk of acci-
dent. The doors can be locked using the re-
mote control key. This could become an ob-
stacle for assistance in an emergency situa-
tion.
● Never forget the keys inside the vehicle. An
unauthori
sed use of your vehicle could result
in injury, damage or theft. Therefore always
take the key with you when you leave the ve-
hicle.
● Never remove the key from the ignition if
the vehic
le is in motion. Otherwise, the steer-
ing could suddenly block and it would be im-
possible to steer the vehicle. CAUTION

Opening and closing
Note
For anti-theft security, only the driver door is
fitted w ith a loc
k cylinder.“Safe” security system*
This is an anti-theft device which consists of
a doubl
e loc

k for the door locks and a deacti-
vation function for the boot in order to pre-
vent forced entry.
Activation
The “safe” system is activated when the vehi-
cle is locked using the key or the remote con-
trol.
To activate it with the key, rotate once it is in-
serted in the door lock cylinder in the locking
direction.
To activate the system using the remote con-
trol, press the lock button once  on the re-
mote.
Once this system is activated, opening doors
from the outside and the inside is not possi-
ble. The rear lid can not be opened. The cen-
tral lock button does not work.
When the ignition is switched off, the instru-
ment panel display indicates that the “Safe”
system is on. Deactivation
Rot
at

e the key inserted in the lock cylinder
twice towards the locking direction.
To activate the system using the remote con-
trol, press the lock button on the remote
twice  in less than five seconds.
On deactivating the “Safe” system, the alarm
volumetric sensor is also deactivated.
With the “Safe” switched off, doors can be
opened from the interior but not from the ex-
terior.
See “Selective unlocking system*”
“Safe” status
On the driver door, there is warning lamp visi-
ble from outside the vehicle through the win-
dow which shows the “Safe” system status.
We will know that “Safe” system is activated
by the flashing warning lamp. The indicator
will flash on all vehicles, fitted and nor fitted
with an alarm, until they unlock.
Remember:
Safe activated with or without an alarm:
warning lamp flashes continuously.
Safe deactivated without an alarm: the warn-
ing lamp stays off.
Safe deactivated with an alarm: the warning
lamp stays off. WARNING
No one should remain inside the vehicle if the
“Safe” sy s

tem is activated because opening
the doors will not be possible in the event of
an emergency neither from the inside nor the
outside and help from the outside is made
difficult. Danger of death. Passengers could
become trapped inside in case of emergency. Selective unlocking system*
This system allows to unlock either just the
driv
er door or al
l

the vehicle.
Driver door unlock button
Unlock once. Use either the key or the remote
control.
Once the key is inserted in the lock cylinder,
rotate once in the unlock direction. The driver
door will remain without “Safe” and un-
locked. In vehicles fitted with an alarm, see
the Anti-theft Alarm section ›››
page 132.
Using the remote control, press the unlock
button on the remote  once. The “Safe” sys-
tem for all the vehicle is deactivated, only the
driver door is unlocked and both the alarm
and the warning lamp are also turned off. »
