The warning lamp lights up for a few sec-
onds as a functional check when ignition
is switched on.

If the lamp does not go out afterwards or
lights up or flashes when driving, either
the coolant temperature is too high or the
coolant level too low. An acoustic signal
will sound 3 times as an additional warn-
ing:

Should the warning light flash or light up
while driving you will also hear three
times an acoustic warning as soon as the
engine runs at over 1500 r.p.m. You must
stop the car and turn the engine off: check
the oil level and top up if necessary. See
the "Engine oil" chapter.

If the  warning  lamp  flashes even  though
the  oil level is in  order,  do  not continue
driving.  Do  not even  run  the  engine  at
idling speed. Call in expert assistance.

If while driving the engine speed de-
creases below idling speed the oil pres-
sure warning lamp may light up. Increase
engine speed by accelerating or changing
down gear.

When  the  vehicle  is opened  using  the
radio-frequency remote control*, the lock-
ing  security system  as well as the  anti
theft alarm* are immediately deactivated.
The indicator on the driver’s door will stop
flashing.  This warning  light is fitted  to
vehicles equipped  with  the  locking  secu-
rity system or the anti theft alarm*.

When the vehicle is opened using the key,
the locking security system (double lock-
ing) and the anti-theft alarm* are immedi-
ately deactivated.

When the vehicle is opened, the interior
lighting will come on for 30 seconds as if
a door is open and the indicators will
flash twice.

If,  for  any reason,  the  central locking
ceases to  function  then,  in  general,  the
drivers door  and  boot may be  opened
conventionally using  the  key but neither
the  locking  security system  nor  the  anti
theft alarm can be activated.

If the  key is maintained  in  the  opening
position  in  the  driver’s door  the  electric
windows will open,  in  vehicles equipped
with them.

If for any reason the central locking
ceases to function, neither the rear doors
nor the passenger door may be opened.

The lock mechanism of the driver’s door,
the boot and the ignition locking mecha-
nism all possess a rro

When the locking mechanism is operated
with  any object other  than  the  key,  the
rotation  mechanism  is activated.  The
manipulated  cylinder  will rotate  without
opening  the  vehicle  or  turning  the  igni-
tion on.

If the  rotation  mechanism  is activated
when the key is inserted then remove the
key fully and  then  reinsert it to  open  the
vehicle.  There  will be  no  damage  to  the
locks.

This function may vary according to the model
and country.
