USB sockets

These symbols determine the type of use of a USB socket:

Power supply and recharging.

Likewise, plus exchange of multimedia data with the audio system.

Likewise, plus use of smartphone applications with the touch screen.

USB sockets allow the connection of a portable device.

Depending on version, the USB socket located on the centre console also allows a smartphone to be connected by Android Auto® or CarPlay®, enabling certain smartphone applications to be used on the touch screen.

For best results, use a cable made or approved by the device manufacturer.

These applications can be managed using the steering-mounted controls or the audio system controls.

When the USB socket is used, the portable device charges automatically.

While charging, a message is displayed if the power drawn by the portable device exceeds the current supplied by the vehicle.

For more information about how to use this equipment, refer to the sections describing the audio and telematics systems.

12 V accessory socket

• Plug in a 12 V accessory (with a maximum rated power of 120 W) using a suitable adapter.

Observe the maximum power rating to avoid damaging the accessory.

The connection of an unapproved electrical device, such as a USB charger, may adversely affect the operation of vehicle electrical systems, causing faults such as poor radio reception or interference with displays in the screens.

Subwoofer under boot carpet

Regularly vacuum the grille and be careful not to have any liquids nearby.

Wireless smartphone charger

This system allows wireless charging of a portable device such as a smartphone, using the magnetic induction principle, in accordance with the Qi 1.1 standard.

The portable device to be charged must be compatible with the Qi standard, either by design or by using a compatible holder or shell.

A mat can also be used provided that it is approved by the Manufacturer.

The charging area is identified by the Qi symbol. The charger works with the engine running and with the Stop & Start system in STOP mode.

Charging is managed by the smartphone.

With the Keyless Entry and Starting system, the charger’s operation may be briefly disrupted when a door is opened or the ignition is switched off.

Charging

• With the charging area clear, place a device in its centre.

When the portable device is detected, the charger’s indicator lamp lights up green. It remains lit for the whole time that the battery is being charged.

The system is not designed to charge multiple devices simultaneously.

Do not leave metal objects (e.g. coins, keys, vehicle remote control) in the charging area while a device is being charged - risk of overheating or interrupting the charging!

Checking operation

The state of the indicator lamp allows the operation of the charger to be monitored.

If the indicator lamp is fixed orange:

• remove the device, then place it back in the centre of the charging zone.

or

• remove the device and try again in a quarter of an hour.

If the problem persists, have the system checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Mats

Fitting

When fitting it on the driver's side, only use the mountings present on the carpet (a "click" indicates proper locking).

The other mats are simply laid over the carpet.

Removing/refitting

• To remove it on the driver's side, move the seat backwards and unclip the fasteners.
• To refit it, position the mat and secure it by pressing down.
• Check that the mat is secured correctly.

To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:

• Only use mats which are suited to the fixings already present in the vehicle; these fixings must be used.
• Never fit one mat on top of another.

The use of mats not approved by the Manufacturer may interfere with access to the pedals and hinder the operation of the cruise control/speed limiter.

The approved mats have two fasteners located underneath the seat.
