With the engine running, do not leave the steering wheel at full lock while stationary as this may damage the power-assisted steering pump. With the engine switched off, or if there is a system fault, it is still possible to turn the steering wheel. The force required will be greater.
Depending on the vehicle, the steering wheel position is adjustable. Lift lever 1 and place the steering wheel in the required position; raise the lever to lock the steering wheel in place. Make sure that the steering wheel is correctly locked.
For safety reasons, only adjust the steering wheel when the vehicle is stationary. Never switch off the ignition when travelling downhill, and avoid doing so in normal driving (assistance is not provided).
With the ignition on, select display 1 showing total mileage and clock. There are two ways to set the time:
If the electrical supply is cut (battery disconnected, broken supply wire, etc.), the clock will lose its time setting. The clock must be reset.
For your safety, we recommend that you do not adjust the clock while driving.
Press the end of the stalk 1. Depending on the vehicle, press on one of areas 2.
Pull stalk 1 towards you to flash the headlights.
Move stalk 1 parallel to the steering wheel in the direction you are going to turn it. When driving on the motorway, the steering wheel is not usually turned sufficiently to return the stalk automatically. There is an intermediate position in which the stalk may be held when changing lanes. When the stalk is released, it will automatically return to its starting position.
Press switch 3. This switch activates all four direction indicators and the side indicator lights simultaneously. It must only be used in an emergency to warn drivers of other vehicles that you have had to stop in an area where stopping is prohibited or unexpected, or that you are obliged to drive under special circumstances.
