PROGRAMMABLE HEATING
(Webasto)* The programmable heating is provi-
ded to operate with the engine off. Itpermits heating of the passengercompartment, de-icing of the win-dows and pre-heating of the coolantcircuit to provide an optimum opera-ting temperature when the engine isswitched on.
* According to destination. Control panel/digital programmer The programmable heating system's control panel is located to the left ofthe instrument panel. 1.

comes on and the time is displayed for approximately ten seconds. SETTING THE CLOCK Press button 4. The screen and the
setting indicator light 8come on.
Within ten seconds, press one of the buttons 5until the correct time is dis-
played:

Cancelling a programme
To clear a programmed start-up time, press button
6briefly.
The screen lighting switches off andthe preselection number "B" disap-
pears. Recalling a programme Press button 6several times until the
required preselection number "B"
appears. Note: after ten seconds, the time
disappears but remains programmed while the screen lighting and the pre-selection number "B" remain. SERVICING
At least once a year, before winter, have the programmable heating sys-
tem checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Servicing and repairs should only be
carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Use genuine replacement parts only.
The programmable hea- ting system is fitted with athermal safety devicewhich cuts off combustion
in the event of over-
heating due to a lack of coolant. Inthis case, top up the coolant andpress the programme selectionbutton before switching the hea-ting on again. In the case of a coolant leak,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
To avoid inhaling poisonous fumes and asphyxiation, the pro-grammable heating must not beused in an enclosed area, evenfor short periods (areas not fittedwith an exhaust gas extractionsystem). Always switch off the program- mable heating when filling withfuel to avoid any risk of fire orexplosion. The programmable heating sys- tem is supplied from the vehicle'sfuel tank. Before use, ensure thatthe quantity of fuel remaining issufficient.

CHECKING THE LEVELS Oil level Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. The maxi-mum consumption is 0.5 l per
600 miles (1 000 km). Check the level with the vehicle level, engine cold, using the oillevel gauge on the instrumentpanel or the dipstick.
Dipstick
There are two marks onthe dipstick: A=maximum
Never fill past this mark.B= minimum
To maintain the reliability of engines and emissioncontrol systems, the useof additives in engine oilis prohibited.
Oil change According to the information given in
"PEUGEOT SERVICING" .
Note: avoid used oil coming into
prolonged contact with the skin.
Viscosity selection In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer's require-ments. Brake fluid level:
Ð The level must always be between the DANGER and MAXIMUM
marks in the reservoir.
Ð If the level drops substantially, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
immediately.
Fluid change:
Ð must be carried out according to the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Ð use fluids recommended by the manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4standards.
Note: brake fluid is harmful to health
and very corrosive. Avoid all contactwith the skin. Cooling system Use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer. When the engine is warm, the tem- perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan canoperate with the ignition keyremoved and because the coolingsystem is pressurised, wait for atleast one hour after the engine hasstopped before carrying out anywork. Slacken the cap to the first notch torelease the pressure to prevent anyrisk of scalding. When the pressurehas dropped, remove the cap andtop up the level. Note:
the coolant does not need to
be changed. Used oil Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid or coolant into drains or into theground. Power steering reservoir  Open the reservoir, with the engine at ambient temperature.The level should always beabove the MIN. mark and closeto the MAX. mark.
Windscreen and headlamp* wash level For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products recommended by PEUGEOT.
* According to destination.

TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT etc.
Only use original PEUGEOT tow bars that have been tested andapproved from the design stage ofyour vehicle. The tow bar must be fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage butit may also be used for towing a
trailer. Driving with a trailer subjects the towing vehicle to more significantstress and its driver must be particu-larly careful. Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towing load must be reduced by 10 %
and so on for every 1 000 metres ofaltitude.Driving advice Distribution of loads:
Distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to theaxle and the nose weight approachesthe maximum permitted withoutexceeding it. Cooling: Towing a trailer on a slope
increases the temperature of the coolant. As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependenton the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the engine speed and reduceyour speed. The maximum towing load on a long slope depends on the gradient andthe outside temperature. In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature. If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engineas soon as possible. Tyres:
Check the tyre pressures
of the towing vehicle and of the
trailer, observing the recommendedpressures. Braking: Towing increases the
braking distance. Lights: Check the electrical signal-
ling on the trailer.Side wind: Take into acount the
increased sensitivity to side wind.
