It lights up for approx.
2 seconds in orange ,
then fl
ashes in green or
red. The remote control bat-
tery is almost flat. No on
or off signal has been r
e-
ceived.
Flashes orange for
around 5 seconds. The r

tery is fl at. No on or off
signal has been r
e-
ceived. a)
The remote control is out of range. In this case it will
be necessary to get cl oser t

o the vehicle and press
the corresponding button again.
Replacing the remote control battery
When pressing the buttons, if the control
lamp of the remote 1 flashes for approx. 5
or ange or does not light up
, the batt

eries
must be replaced.
The battery is located beneath a cover on
the back of the remote control.

Air conditioning
Function button: function
Departure time 1 , Departure time
2, Departure time 3 : Three differ
ent de-
parture times (hh.mm) may be programmed. If
the auxiliary heater should only be switched
on a certain day of the week, this can also be
selected.
Duration : The duration det ermines the oper
-
ating time of the auxiliary heater when switch-
ed on using the fast heating button  on the air conditioning controls. The duration is also
used to calculate the departure time for the
manual air conditioner. It can be set between
10 and 60 minutes at 10-minute intervals.
E This returns to the main menu. The programmed departure time determines
the appr
oximat

e time it should take to reach
the temperature set in the vehicle. The start of
the heating operation is determined automat-
ically depending on the outside temperature.
Checking the programming
When a departure time is activated and the
ignition is switched off the control lamp of the
fast heating button  lights up for approxi- mately 10 seconds. WARNING
Never programme the auxiliary heater so
that it swit ches itself on and is running in an
encl

osed space or an area with no ventila-
tion. The auxiliary heater exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, an odourless
and colourl
ess t

oxic gas. Carbon monoxide
can cause people to lose consciousness. It
can also cause death. Operating instructions
The auxiliary heater exhaust system located
belo
w the v

ehicle must be kept clear of snow,
mud and other objects. The exhaust fumes
must be able to exit freely. The emissions
generated by the auxiliary heater are re-
moved via an exhaust pipe fitted underneath
the vehicle.
On heating the vehicle interior, depending on
the outside temperature, the warm air is first
directed at the windscreen and then to the
rest of the vehicle interior through the air
vents. Directing the diffusers

Start and driving
Foresight when driving
Accel er
ation causes the v
ehicle to consume
more fuel. If you think ahead when driving,
you will need to brake less and thus acceler-
ate less. Wherever possible, let the car roll
slowly to a stop, with a gear engaged (for in-
stance when you can see that the next traffic
lights are red). This takes advantage of the
engine braking effect, reducing wear on the
brakes and tyres. Emissions and fuel con-
sumption will drop to zero due to the overrun
fuel cut-off.
Changing gear to save energy
An effective way of saving is to change in ad-
vance to a higher gear. Running the engine at
high rpm in the lower gears uses an unneces-
sary amount of fuel.
Manual transmission: shift up from first to
second gear as soon as possible. In any case,
we recommend that you change to a higher
gear upon reaching 2,000 rpm. Choosing the
right gear enables fuel savings. Select the
highest possible gear appropriate for the
driving situation (the engine should continue
functioning with cyclical regularity).
Automatic transmission: accelerate gradu-
ally and without reaching the “kick-down”
position. Avoid driving at high speed
Avoid trav
elling at top speed, whenever pos-
sible. Fuel consumption, emission of harmful
gases and noise pollution multiply dispropor-
tionately as speed is increased. Driving at
moderate speeds will help to save fuel.
Reduce idling time
In vehicles with the Start-Stop system idling is
automatically reduced. In vehicles without
the Start-Stop system it is worth switching off
the engine, for example, at level crossings
and at traffic lights that remain red for long
periods of time. When an engine has reached
operating temperature, and depending on
the cylinder capacity, keeping it switched off
for a minimum of about 5 seconds already
saves more than the amount of fuel necessa-
ry for restarting.
The engine takes a long time to warm up
when it is idling. Mechanical wear and pollu-
tant emissions are also especially high during
this initial warm-up phase. It is therefore best
to drive off immediately after starting the en-
gine. Avoid running the engine at high speed.
Regular maintenance
Regular servicing helps in saving fuel even
before the engine is started. A well-serviced
engine gives you the benefit of improved fuel
efficiency as well as maximum reliability and
an enhanced resale value. A badly serviced engine can consume up to 10% more fuel
than necessary.
Avoid short journeys
The engine and cat
alytic converter need to
reach their optimal operating temperature
in order to minimise fuel consumption and
emissions.
A cold engine consumes a disproportionate
amount of fuel. The engine reaches its work-
ing temperature after about four kilometres
(2.5 miles), when fuel consumption will return
to a normal level.
Check tyre pressure
Always make sure the tyres are inflated to the
correct pressures

There is a fault in the Start-Stop system. Take
the vehicle to a workshop to have the fault re-

reduce CO

In St art

-Stop mode, the engine will automati-
cally switch off when the vehicle stops or is
stopping; for example when stopping at traf-
fic lights. The ignition remains switched on
during the stopping phase. The engine auto-
matically switches back on when required. In
this situation, the light of the START ENGINE STOP button stays on

a.Using the camera located in the windscreen,
the L
ane Assist syst
em det

ects the possible
lines dividing the lanes. When the vehicle in-
voluntarily approaches a dividing line it has
detected, the system notifies the driver with a
corrective steering movement. The purpose is
not only to warn the driver, but also to keep
the vehicle inside the lane. This movement
can be over-regulated at any time.
No warning is produced with the turn signals
activated, given that the Lane Assist system
understands that a lane change is required. Control lamp "

the trailer and the vehicle. With the engine
running, electrical devices on the trailer re-

If the system detects that a trailer has been
connected electrically, the electrical equip-
