comes on with an audio beep.

Depending on the vehicle, accessories

(e.g. radio) stop working either when

the engine is switched off or when the

driver’s door is opened or when the

doors are locked.

1.10

ENGINE IMMOBILISER

This prevents the vehicle being

driven by anyone not in possession

of the vehicle’s coded ignition key.

Operating faults

After the ignition has been switched

on, if warning light 1 continues to flash

or remains continuously lit, there is a

system operating fault.

Operating principle

The vehicle is automatically protected

a few seconds after the ignition is

switched off.

In all cases, it is essential to contact

an approved dealer as only they are

qualified to repair the engine immobi-

liser.

If the vehicle does not recognise the

coded ignition key, tell-tale light 1 will

flash continuously and the engine

cannot be started.

1

If the coded ignition key is faulty,

use the second key (supplied with

the vehicle).

System operation

When the ignition is switched on, tell-

tale 1 lights up continuously for approx-

imately three seconds and then goes

out. The vehicle has recognised the

code. You can then start the engine.

Any unauthorised work

carried out on the engine

immobiliser (computers,

wiring, etc.) could be dan-

gerous. Work must be carried out

by qualified personnel.

Vehicle protection

A few seconds after the ignition has

been switched off, tell-tale light 1 will

flash constantly.

The vehicle will only be protected after

the ignition has been switched off.

SEAT BELTS (1/5)

Always wear your seat belt when trav-

elling in your vehicle. You must also

comply with the legislation of the par-

ticular country you are in.

Before starting, adjust your driving

position and then have each occu-

pant adjust their seat belt to ensure

optimum protection.

Adjusting your driving position

(depending on the vehicle)

– Sit well back in your seat (having

removed your coat or jacket etc.).

This is essential to ensure your back

is positioned correctly;

– adjust the distance between the

seat and the pedals. Your seat

should be as far back as possible

while still allowing you to depress

the clutch pedal fully. The seatback

should be adjusted so that your arms

are slightly bent when you hold the

steering wheel;

– adjust the position of your head-

rest. For the maximum safety, your

head must be as close as possible to

the headrest;

– adjust the height of the seat. This

adjustment allows you to select the

seat position which offers you the

best possible view;

Lap belt 2 must be worn flat over the

thighs and against the pelvis. The seat

belt must be worn as close to the body

as possible. i.e.: avoid wearing heavy

clothing or keeping bulky objects under

the belts, etc.

The seatbelt is for the use of one

person only, whether adult or child.

Even pregnant women should wear

a seat belt. In this case, ensure that

the lap belt is not exerting too much

pressure on the abdomen, but do

not allow any slack.

– adjust the position of the steering

wheel.

SEAT BELTS (5/5)

The following information applies to the vehicle’s front and rear seat belts.

– No modification may be made to the component parts of the originally fitted restraint system: seat belts, seats and

their mountings. For special operations (e.g. fitting child seats), contact an authorised dealer.

– Do not use devices which allow any slack in the belts (e.g. clothes pegs, clips, etc.): a seat belt which is worn too

loosely may cause injury in the event of an accident.

– Never wear the shoulder strap under your arm or behind your back.

– Never use the same belt for more than one person and never hold a baby or child on your lap with your seat belt around

them.

– The belt should never be twisted.

– Following an accident, have the seat belts checked and replaced if necessary. Always replace your seat belts as soon as

they show any signs of wear.

– Make sure that the buckle is inserted into the appropriate catch.

– When refitting the rear bench seat, take care that the seat belts are correctly positioned so that they can be used properly.

– Ensure that no objects are placed in the area around the seat belt catch as they could prevent it from being properly se-

cured.

– Make sure the seat belt catch is properly positioned (it should not be hidden away, crushed or flattened by people or ob-

jects).

1.19

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (1/3)

Depending on the vehicle, they are

composed of:

– Have the entire restraint

system checked following

an accident.

– seat belt pretensioners;

– chest-level load limiters;

– No operation whatsoever

is permitted on any part of the

system (air bags, electronic con-

trol units, wiring) and the system

components must not be reused

on any other vehicle, even if iden-

tical.

– air bags for the driver and front pas-

senger.

These systems are designed to act in-

dependently or together when the vehi-

cle is subjected to a frontal impact.

Depending on the severity of the

impact, the system can trigger:

– To avoid premature triggering

of the system which may cause

injury, only qualified Network per-

sonnel are authorisedto work on

the methods of restraint in addi-

tion to the front seat belt.

– seat belt locking;

– the seat belt pretensioner to hold the

occupant in the seat, and the force

limiter;

Pretensioner

With the ignition switched on, if the

vehicle is subject to a significant fron-

tal impact the system may, depending

on the severity of the impact, trigger a

piston which instantly retracts the seat

belt.

– The electric trigger system may

only be tested by a specially

trained technician using special

equipment.

– the front air bag.

– When the vehicle is scrapped,

contact an approved dealer for

disposal of the pretensioner and

airbag gas generators.

The pretensioner holds the seat belt

against the body, holding the occupant

more securely against the seat, thus in-

creasing the seat belt’s efficiency.

Load limiter

Above a certain level of impact force,

this mechanism is used to limit the force

of the belt against the body so that it is

at an acceptable level.

1.20

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/3)

Driver’s and passenger air

bags

Operation

This system is only operational when

the ignition is switched on.

These may be fitted to the front seats

on the driver and passenger side (loca-

tion A).

If a severe frontal impact occurs, the

air bag(s) inflate(s) rapidly, cushion-

ing the impact of the driver’s head and

chest against the steering wheel and

the front passenger’s head against the

dashboard. The air bag then deflates

immediately so that the passengers are

not impeded in any way when they get

out of the vehicle.

Each air bag system consists of:

A

– an air bag and gas generator fitted

on the steering wheel for the driver

and in the dashboard for the front

passenger;

– an electronic unit for system monitor-

ing which controls the gas generator

electrical trigger system;

– a special warning light

– remote sensors.

å

;

The air bag system uses

pyrotechnic principles. This

explains why, when the air

bag inflates, it will gener-

ate heat, produce smoke (this does

not mean that a fire is about to start)

and make a noise upon detonation.

An air bag may inflate immediately,

causing some minor, superficial

grazing to the skin or other discom-

fort.

1.21

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (3/3)

All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is deployed and also to pre-

vent the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag deploys.

Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag

– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.

– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.

– Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.

– You must not remove the steering wheel (such work must only be performed by trained personnel from our Network).

– When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting

your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to inflate properly and be fully effective.

Warnings concerning the passenger air bag

– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the dashboard in the proximity of the air bag

housing.

– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umbrella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).

– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as there is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In

general, all parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knees, hands, head etc.).

– You should reactivate the passenger air bag as soon as you remove the child seat to ensure the protection of the front pas-

senger in the event of an impact.

A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS

THE RESTRAINT SYSTEMS IN ADDITION TO THE SEAT BELT, I.E. AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIVATED.

(refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating the front passenger air bag” in Section 1)

1.22

SIDE PROTECTION DEVICES

Side air bags

These air bags may be fitted to the front

seats and are deployed at the sides of

the seats (door side) to protect the oc-

cupants in the event of a severe side

impact.

Warnings concerning the side air bag

– Fitting seat covers: seats equipped with an air bag require covers

specifically designed for your vehicle. Contact an approved dealer to find

out if such covers are available from our Network. The use of any covers

other than those designed for your vehicle (including those designed for an-

other vehicle) may affect the operation of the air bags and reduce your protec-

tion.

– Do not place any accessories, objects, or even pets, between the seatback,

the door and the internal fittings. Do not cover the seatback with objects such

as clothes or accessories. This may prevent the air bag from operating cor-

rectly or cause injury when the air bag is deployed.

– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on the seat or internal

fittings, except by qualified personnel from our Network.

1.23

ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT

All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent

the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.

Operating faults

The airbag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both the

airbags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection system.

This warning light

å

will light up on

It is therefore essential to wear the seat belt at all times. If seat belts are

not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in the

event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superficial injuries

occurring when the airbag is deployed, although such minor injuries are always

possible with airbags.

the instrument panel when the ignition

is switched on and then go out after a

few seconds.

If it does not light up when the ignition

is switched on, or if it lights up when the

engine is running, it indicates a fault in

the system. In this case, fitting a child

seat in the front passenger seat is

PROHIBITED.

If the vehicle should overturn or suffer a rear impact, however severe, the pre-

tensioners and air bags are not always triggered. Impacts to the underside of the

vehicle, e.g. from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these systems.

– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the

driver or passenger air bag system (air bag, electronic unit, wiring, etc.), except

by qualified personnel from our Network.

Contact an approved dealer as soon

as possible. Your protection will be re-

duced until this fault is rectified.

– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidental trig-

gering of the system which could cause injury, only qualified personnel from

our Network may work on the air bag system.

– As a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle has

been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.

– When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and hand

over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.

– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved Dealer for disposal of the

gas generator(s).

CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)

Carrying children

Children, and adults, must be correctly

seated and strapped in for all journeys.

The children being carried in your vehi-

cle are your responsibility.

A child is not a miniature adult. Children

are at risk of specific injuries as their

muscles and bones have not yet fin-

ished growing. The seat belt alone

would not provide suitable protection.

Use an approved child seat and ensure

you use it correctly.

A collision at 30 mph

(50 km/h) is the same

as falling a distance of

10 metres. Transporting a

Never leave a child unat-

tended in the vehicle.

Check that your child is

always strapped in and that

child without a restraint is the equi-

valent of allowing him or her to play

on a fourthfloor balcony without rail-

ings.

Never travel with a child held in your

arms. In the event of an accident,

you will not be able to keep hold of

the child, even if you yourself are

wearing a seat belt.

If your vehicle has been involved in

a road accident, replace the child

seat and have the seat belts and

ISOFIX fittings checked.

Never let your child put their head or

arms out of the window.

Check that the child is in the correct

position for the entire journey, espe-

cially if asleep.

To prevent the doors being

opened, use the childproof

locks (refer to the informa-

tion on “Locking/unlocking

the doors” in Section 1).

1.25

CHILD SAFETY: General information (2/2)

Using a child seat

Set a good example by always fas-

tening your seat belt and teaching

your child:

– to strap themselves in correctly;

– to always get in and out of the car

at the kerb, away from busy traf-

fic.

The level of protection offered by the

child seat depends on its ability to re-

strain your child and on its installation.

Incorrect installation compromises the

protection it offers the child in the event

of harsh braking or an impact.

Before purchasing a child seat, check

that it complies with the regulations for

the country you are in and that it can

be fitted in your vehicle. Consult an ap-

proved dealer to find out which seats

are recommended for your vehicle.

Do not use a second-hand child

seat or one without an instruction

manual.

Check that there are no objects in

the vicinity of the child seat which

could impede its operation.

Before fitting a child seat, read the

manual and respect its instructions. If

you experience any difficulties during

installation, contact the manufacturer

of the equipment. Keep the instructions

with the seat.

Never leave a child unat-

tended in the vehicle.

Check that your child is

always strapped in and that

the belt or safety harness used is

correctly set and adjusted. Avoid

wearing bulky clothing which could

cause the belts to slacken.

Never let your child put their head or

arms out of the window.

Check that the child is in the correct

position for the entire journey, espe-

cially if asleep.

1.26

CHILD SAFETY: choosing a child seat

Rear-facing child seats

Forward-facing child seats

Booster cushions

A baby’s head is, proportionally, heavier

than that of an adult and its neck is very

fragile. Transport the child in this po-

sition for as long as possible (until the

age of 2 at the very least). It supports

the head and neck. Choose a bucket

type seat for better side protection and

replace it as soon as the child’s head

extends past the seat shell.

The child’s head and abdomen need to

be protected as a priority. A forward-fac-

ing child seat which is firmly attached to

the vehicle will reduce the risk of impact

to the head. Ensure your child travels in

a forward-facing seat with a harness for

as long as their size permits. Choose

a wrap-around seat for better side pro-

tection.

From 15 kg or 4 years, the child can

travel using a booster seat, which will

enable the seat belt to be adapted

to suit his/her size and shape. The

booster seat cushion must be fitted with

guides to position the seat belt on the

child’s thighs rather than the stomach.

It is recommended that you use a seat-

back fitted with a belt strap guide which

can be adjusted in terms of height to

position the seat belt in the centre of

the shoulder. It should never rest on the

neck or over the arm. Choose a bucket

type seat for better side protection.

1.27

CHILD SAFETY: mounting a child seat (1/2)

Attachment via the seat belt

Attachment with the ISOFIX system

The seat belt must be adjusted to

ensure that it is effective in the event of

harsh braking or an impact.

Authorised ISOFIX child seats are ap-

proved in accordance with regulation

ECE-R44 in one of the three following

cases:

– ISOFIX universal 3-point forward-

facing seat;

Ensure that the strap paths indicated

by the child seat manufacturer are re-

spected.

The seat belt must never

be twisted or the tension

relieved. Never pass the

shoulder strap under the

– ISOFIX semi-universal 2-point seat;

– specific.

Always check that the seat belt is cor-

rectly fastened by pulling it up, then

pulling it out fully whilst pressing on the

child seat.

For the latter two, check that your child

seat can be installed by consulting the

list of compatible vehicles.

arm or behind the back.

Check that the seat belt has not

been damaged by sharp edges.

If the seat belt does not operate nor-

mally, it will not protect the child.

Consult an approved dealer. Do not

use this seat until the seat belt has

been repaired.

Check that the seat is correctly held by

moving it from side to side and back

to front: the seat should remain firmly

fixed.

Attach the child seat with the ISOFIX

locks, if these are provided. The ISOFIX

system allows quick, easy, safe fitting.

The ISOFIX system is composed of

2 rings for each rear side seat.

Check that the child seat has not been

installed at an angle and that it is not

resting against a window.

Before using an ISOFIX

child seat that you pur-

chased for another vehicle,

check that its installation is

authorised. Consult the list of ve-

hicles which can be fitted with the

seat from the equipment manufac-

turer.

Do not use the child seat

if it may unfasten the seat

belt restraining it: the base

of the seat must not rest on

the buckle and/or catch of the seat

belt.

No modifications may be

made to the component

parts of the restraint system

(seat belts, ISOFIX, seats

and their mountings) originally fitted.

The rings ISOFIX 1 are located be-

tween the seatback and the seat base

and are clearly visible.

The third ring of each side seat is used

to attach the upper strap on some child

seats.

Attach the hook on the belt to one of the

rings 3 (4x2 version) or 4 (4x4 version).

Pull the belt so that the back of the child

seat comes into contact with the back

of the vehicle seat.

To ensure your child seat can be easily

fitted and locked on rings 1, use access

guides 2 on the child seat.

Pass the belt between the seatback

and the rear parcel shelf (to remove the

parcel shelf: refer to Section 3 “Parcel

shelf”).

The ISOFIX anchorage points have been exclusively designed for child

seats with the ISOFIX system. Never fit a different type of child seat, seat

belt or other objects to these anchorage points.

It is essential to use the

boot anchorage points 3

or 4 to attach the upper belt

of the child seat.

Check that nothing is obstructing the anchorage points.

It is forbidden to use other mounting

points to attach this strap.

If your vehicle has been involved in a road accident, have the ISOFIX anchorage

points checked and replace your child seat.

1.29

CHILD SAFETY: fitting a child seat (1/6)

Some seats are not suitable for fitting

child seats. The diagram on the fol-

lowing page shows you how to attach

a child seat.

In the front seat

The laws concerning children travel-

ling in the front passenger seat differ in

every country. Consult the legislation in

force and follow the indications on the

diagram on the following page.

The types of child seats indicated may

not be available. Before using a diffe-

rent child seat, check with the manufac-

turer that it can be fitted.

Before fitting a child seat in this seat (if

authorised):

– deactivate the front passenger air

bag;

– lower the seat belt as far as possible;

– move the seat as far back as pos-

sible;

– gently tilt the seatback away from

vertical (approximately 25°).

Fit the child seat in a rear

seat wherever possible.

Check that when installing

the child seat in the vehicle

it is not at risk of coming loose from

its base.

Do not change these settings after the

child seat is installed.

If you have to remove the headrest,

check that it is correctly stored so

that it does not come loose under

harsh braking or impact.

Always attach the child seat to the

vehicle even if it is not in use so that

it does not come loose under harsh

braking or impact.

RISK OF DEATH OR

SERIOUS INJURY: before

fitting a child seat in this

seat, check that the air bag

has been deactivated (refer to the in-

formation on “Deactivating the front

passenger air bag” in Section 1).

A carrycot can be installed across the

vehicle and will take up at least two

seats. Position the child with his or her

feet nearest the door.

A child seat may only be fitted in this

seat if it is equipped with an inertia-reel

belt. For any additional information,

contact an approved dealer.

Before installing a child seat in the

ISOFIX anchoring points on a rear side

seat, check that the seat belt buckles

are not placed between the two ISOFIX

anchorage points in this seat. If ne-

cessary, move the buckle for the seat

concerned towards the centre of the

vehicle.

Check that the forward-facing child seat

is resting against the back of the vehi-

cle seat and that the headrest of the

vehicle is not obstructing its use.

Move the front seat as far forward as

possible to install a rear-facing child

seat, then move back the seat in front

as far as it will go, although without al-

lowing it to come into contact with the

child seat.

Make sure that the child

seat or the child’s feet do

not prevent the front seat

from locking correctly.

Note: depending on the vehicle, the mileage before an oil change varies according to the driving style (frequent driving at low

speed, door-to-door journeys, extensive use at idle speed, towing a trailer etc.). The distance remaining until the next oil change

can therefore decrease more quickly in some cases than the actual distance travelled.

The oil change intervals are independent of the vehicle’s maintenance schedule: please refer to your vehicle’s maintenance do-

cument.

Always use a high-grade fuel that

complies with the legislation in force

in each country. It must conform to the

specifications given on label C inside

the fuel filler flap.

Always use unleaded petrol or fuel

containing a maximum of 85 percent

ethanol (E85).

In very cold conditions, it may be very

difficult or even impossible to start the

engine.

Refer to the “Engine specifications”

table in Section 6.

Note: you may notice an increase in

Petrol version

fuel consumption with this type of fuel.

It is essential to use unleaded petrol.

The octane rating (RON) must conform

to the specifications given on the label

inside fuel filler flap C.

When the fuel is changed the engine

must adjust, which may cause minor in-

conveniences for a few minutes (longer

starting times, cutting out, etc.).

Diesel versions

It is essential to use diesel fuel that

conforms to the specifications given on

the label inside fuel flap C.

Do not mix even small

amounts of petrol (un-

leaded or E85) with diesel.

Do not use ethanol-based

fuel if your vehicle is not compatible

with this fuel.

Do not add additive to the fuel othe-

rwise you risk damaging the engine.

Insert the nozzle to open the valve and

insert it fully before turning it on to fill

the fuel tank (risk of splashing).

To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled

with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler

neck contains a restrictor fitted with a

foolproof system which only allows

the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be

used (at the pump).

Keep the nozzle in this position

throughout the entire filling operation.

When the pump cuts out automatically

at the end of the filling procedure, a

maximum of two further filling attempts

may be made, as there must be suffi-

cient space in the fuel tank to allow for

expansion.

Make sure that no water enters the fuel

tank during filling. The valve and its sur-

round must remain clean.

Persistent fuel odour

If you notice a persistent

smell of fuel you should:

– stop the vehicle when traffic

conditions allow it and switch off

the ignition;

– switch on the hazard warning

lights and ask your passengers to

leave the vehicle and stay clear

of the traffic;

– contact an authorised dealer.

Useful capacity of fuel tank: approx.

32 litres.

Filling up with LPG

Engage the handbrake, stop the engine,

switch off the ignition and switch off the

lights.

4

Always respect the safety instructions

given at filling stations.

When filling the tank, add the desired

quantity of LPG.

When the pump stops delivering LPG,

or when the pump flow reduces signi-

ficantly, the maximum LPG level has

been reached.

Filling stations without self-service

If service station staff fill your vehicle

with LPG, give them a filling adapter 4,

as supplied in a pouch in the glovebox.

At this point, do not attempt to carry on

filling.

IMPORTANT:

If you exceed the LPG tank capacity when filling completely, please go

to an accredited garage or your authorised dealer to check the automatic

filler device.

The adapter 4 depends on the

country in which the vehicle is sold.

Before travelling to another country,

please consult an authorised dealer.

leased), lift the pistol and place it on the

ning how to refill using the LPG distri-

butor.
