MAINTENANCE AND ANTIPOLLUTION ADVICE
Your vehicle complies with criteria for
recycling and recovering vehicles at
the end of their service life, which en­
tered into force in 2015.
Some of the parts on your vehicle
have been designed to be recycled lat­
er.
These parts are easily removable in
order to be collected and reprocessed
in recycling networks.
Furthermore, by virtue of its design,
moderate fuel consumption and initial
settings, your vehicle also conforms to
current anti-pollution regulations. The
manufacturer is actively striving to re­
duce pollutant exhaust gas emissions
and to save energy. But the fuel con­
sumption of your vehicle and the level
of pollutant exhaust gas emissions are
also your responsibility. Ensure that it
is maintained and used correctly.
Maintenance
It is important to remember that failure
to respect antipollution regulations
could lead to legal action being taken
against the vehicle owner. In addition,
replacing engine, fuel supply system
and exhaust components with parts
other than those originally recom­
mended by the manufacturer may alter
your vehicle so that it no longer com­
plies with antipollution regulations.
Have your vehicle adjusted and
checked by an approved dealer, in ac­
cordance with the instructions given in
your maintenance schedule: they will
have all the equipment necessary for
ensuring that your vehicle is main­
tained to its original standard.
Engine adjustments
– Air filter, diesel filter: a clogged fil­
ter hinders performance. It must be re­
placed.
– Idle speed: this does not require
adjustment.
Exhaust gas monitoring system
The exhaust gas monitoring system
will detect any operating faults in the
vehicle's exhaust gas antipollution sys­
tem.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub­
stances may be released into the at­
mosphere or mechanical damage may
occur.
This indicator light on the instru­
ment panel indicates possible faults in
the system:
This lights up or flashes (depending on
the vehicle) when the ignition is
switched on, then disappears when the
engine starts.
– If it lights up continuously, contact an
approved Dealer as soon as possible;
– If it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved Dealer as soon as pos­
sible;
