(DEFLECTOR)
SPEED-SENSITIVE REAR SPOILER
MAINTENANCE
ACCESSORIES
It is recommended to place the
Piloted Deflector in the mainte-
nance position before installing
an accessory on the boot (for
example a bicycle-carrier).
For any maintenance that may be
necessary on your Piloted Deflec-
tor (leaves or other components
jammed), deploy it in the mainte-
nance position: Switch off the igni-
tion then within one minute action
the wiper stalk. Your Piloted Deflec-
tor deploys.
II
Installation of accessories on
the vehicle (roof bars, roof box,
bicycle-carrier, etc.) limits the
effectiveness of the Piloted
Deflector.
Next, to retract it, start then drive at
v r 10 km/h (6 mph)
Note: The maintenance position
makes the wipers stand up verti-
cally. See "Wash/wipe".
Note: Depending on engine-type,
certain versions are equipped with
a fixed deflector.
The Piloted Deflector enhances
the aerodynamics and the braking
of your vehicle.
AUTOMATIC DEPLOYMENT
Two deployment stages are pos-
sible:
The first deployment stage
is from around 65 km/h
(40 mph). This is maintained
as long as the speed remains
above approx. 25 km/h
(16 mph); below this speed,
the Piloted Deflector retracts
completely.
The second deployment stage
is from around 125 km/h
(78 mph). This is maintained
as long as the speed remains
above approx. 105 km/h
(65 mph); below this speed,
the Piloted Deflector returns
to the first) deployment
stage
If you wash the vehicle with a high pressure system, make sure that the
Piloted Deflector is closed.
