Welcome to your new electric vehicle

This driver’s handbook contains the information necessary:

1. for you to familiarise yourself with your vehicle, to use it to its best advantage, and to benefit fully from all the functions and the technical developments it incorporates.
2. to ensure that it always gives the best performance by following the simple, but comprehensive advice concerning regular maintenance.
3. to enable you to deal quickly with minor faults not requiring specialist attention.
   It is well worth taking a few minutes to read this handbook to familiarise yourself with the information and guidelines it contains about the vehicle and its functions and new features. If certain points are still unclear, our Network technicians will be only too pleased to provide you with any additional information.

WARNING:
The descriptions of the models given in this handbook are based on the technical specifications at the time of writing. This hand-book covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional) available for these models but whether or not these are fitted to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected, and the country where the vehicle is sold. This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to be introduced later in the model year.

AUTOMATIC LOCKING WHEN DRIVING

Operating principle
After the vehicle is started, the system automatically locks the doors when you are driving at approximately 6 mph (10 km/h) and over.

The door can be unlocked:

1. by pressing the central door unlock-ing switch 1.
2. at a standstill, by opening a front door from inside the vehicle.

Note: if a door is opened or closed, it will automatically lock again when the vehicle reaches a speed of 6 mph (10 km/h).

Activating/deactivating the function
To switch it on: with the vehicle at a standstill and the engine running, press switch 1 until a beep sounds.
To deactivate: with the vehicle at a standstill and the engine running, press switch 1 until two beeps sound.
Depending on the vehicle, you can also deactivate/activate the function from the menu on the multifunction screen 2 (refer to the information on the “Vehicle settings customization menu” section 1, “Auto door locking while driving” function).

Driver’s responsibility
If you decide to keep the doors locked when you are driving, remember that it may be more difficult for those assisting you to gain access to the passenger compartment in the event of an emergency.

Operating faults
If you experience an operating fault (no automatic locking, the indicator light incorporated in switch 1 does not light up when trying to lock the doors and tail-gate, etc.), make sure that locking has not been deactivated by mistake and check that the doors and tailgate are properly closed. If they are correctly locked and the fault is still present, contact an authorized dealer.

To raise the headrest
Pull the headrest upwards to the desired height. Check that it is correctly locked.
To lower the headrest
Press button 3 and guide the headrest down to the desired height. Check that it is correctly locked in place.
To adjust the angle of the headrest
Depending on the vehicle, move section A towards or away from you to the required position.
To adjust side supports B
Depending on the vehicle, section B can be adjusted independently to the desired position.

To refit the headrest
Check that the headrest rods are clean 2. The rod with a notch should be inserted into slot 1 fitted with a locking button 3. Insert the headrest rods into the holes (tilt the seatback-backward if necessary).
Press the 3 buttons and push in the headrest as far as it will go, then adjust it to the desired height. Check that each rod 2 on the seatback is securely locked.

To remove the headrest
Raise the headrest to its highest po-sition (tilt the seatback backwards if necessary). Press button 3 and lift the headrest to release it.

WARNING:
The headrest is important for safety. Ensure that it is in place and in the correct position: the top of the headrest should be as close as possible to the top of the head and there must be a minimal distance between the head and the headrest A.

To move the seat forwards or backwards
Lift handle 1 to unlock. Release the handle once the seat is in the correct position and ensure that the seat is locked.

Heated seats

2. a second press decreases the heating to minimum power. One integrated warning light comes on;
3. pressing for the third time turns the heating off.

Operating faults
When an operating fault is detected, the integrated warning lights on switch 4 for the seat concerned flash. Consult an approved dealer.
