Operation
The vehicle interior monitoring and the anti-
t o
w syst em ar
e aut
omatically switched on
again next time the vehicle is locked.
If you wish to switch off the vehicle interior
monitoring and the anti-tow system, it must
be done each time that the vehicle is locked;
if not, they will be automatically switched on.
The vehicle interior monitoring and the anti-
tow system should be switched off if animals
are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise,
their movements will trigger the alarm) or
when, for example, the vehicle is transported
or has to be towed with only one axle on the
ground.
Deactivation through the infotainment
system

Operation
More the lever to the required position:

very six seconds.
7 \
The rear window wash function is acti-

In cold conditions you should not use the
wash/wipe system unless you hav e

armed the windscreen with the heating
and ventilation system. The windscreen
washer fluid could otherwise freeze on the
windscreen and obscure your view of the
road. CAUTION
If the ignition is switched off with the wind-
screen wipers active, they compl et

e their
wipe before returning to the rest position.
When switching the ignition back on, the
windscreen wiper will continue to operate
at the same wiping level. Ice, snow and oth- er obstacles on the windscreen may dam-
age the wiper and the windscreen wiper
motor.

Intr oduction Take into account country-specific regula-
tions about driving with a trailer and the use
of a to wing br
acket.
The vehicle has been developed primarily for
carrying people, although it can also be used
to tow a trailer if fitted with the corresponding
technical equipment. This additional load has
an effect on the useful life, fuel consumption
and vehicle performance and in some cases
can reduce the service intervals.
Driving with a trailer requires more force from
the vehicle, and thus more concentration
from the driver.
In winter, winter tyres should be fitted on both
the vehicle and the trailer.

ted on the coupling device

If the trailer has its own brake system, please
take the relevant legal requirements into ac-
count. Never connect the trailer
