INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS21
Coolant temperature warning light This symbol is accompanied by an audible signal and the message 'Engine temperature too high' on the multi-function display.
It is linked to the STOPwarning light. Stop immediately.
Warning: wait for the engine to cool.
If necessary, top up the level.
With the engine running and the vehicle moving The instrument panel display temporarily shows:

message on the multi-function display. List of warning symbols MANUAL CHECK (vehicle autotest)
 Press the "CHECK" button on the
instrument panel.
With the ignition key in the accesso- ries position, with the ignition swit-ched on, with the engine running orwhen the vehicle is moving, thisfunction informs you at all times ofthe following: - any current warnings,
- the status of functions which it is possible to switch on or off (wind- screen wipers, automatic switchingon of lights, cruise control, disarmingof passenger air bag, etc.).

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND THEELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCEDISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the electronic brake force distribution,increases the stability and manoe-vrability of your vehicle on braking, inparticular on poor or slippery roadsurfaces. Note:when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are approved. The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically whenthere is a risk of wheel lock.
When this warning lightcomes on, accompanied bya buzzer and the message"ABS fault" , it indicates
that there is a malfunction of
the ABS, which can cause a loss ofcontrol of the vehicle when braking.
When this warning lightcomes on, connected to the
STOPand ABS warning
lights, accompanied by abuzzer and the message
'Braking fault' , it indicates that there
is a malfunction of the electronicbrake force distribution, which cancause a loss of control of the vehiclewhen braking.

EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM
In an emergency, this system enables the optimum braking pres-
sure to be reached more quickly,thus reducing the stopping distance. It is triggered by the speed at which
the brake pedal is activated. The
effect of this is a reduction in theresistance of the pedal and an
increase in braking efficiency.Stop immediately. In both cases, consult a Peugeot
dealer.
Normal operation of the ABS maymake itself felt by slight vibrationsof the brake pedal. In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasingthe pressure.
MANUAL GEARBOX Reverse*
To change to reverse gear, lift the ring under the gear lever knob andpush the gear lever to the left then tothe front. Reverse gear can only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary withthe engine idling.
* According to engine.

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION Sensors check the tyre pressure during driving, and trigger a warningin the event of malfunction (speedgreater than 15mph [25 km/h]). Flat tyre When this warning light comes on, accompanied byan audible signal and themessage 'Tyre pressure
low' on the multi-function
display, have the tyre pressurechecked as soon as possible. Puncture
This warning light, accom- panied by an audible signaland the message 'Punc-
tured tyre(s) detected' on
the multi-function display, is
followed by illumination of the
'STOP' warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud-den movement of the steering wheeland the brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured orvery deflated) tyre, and have the tyrepresure checked as soon as possible.
Note: if the damaged tyre is temporari-
ly stored in the boot, it will again emitthis message to remind you of the
necessity of having it repaired. This willprevent another warning of the sametype being displayed.
Sensor(s) not detected
This warning light, accom-panied by an audible signaland the message ' X tyre
pressure sensor(s) miss-ing ' on the multi-function
display, indicates that under-inflationdetection is absent from one (or sev-eral) tyre(s).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the faulty sensor(s). Note: this message is also displayed
when one of the tyres is away from the vehicle (being repaired) or whena wheel without a sensor is fitted.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fittedwith this system must becarried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
The tyre under-inflation detec-tion system is an aid to drivingwhich does not replace theneed for the driver to be vigilant
or to drive responsibly. This system does not remove the necessity for having the tyre pres-sure (including that of the spare
wheel) checked regularly, toensure optimum dynamic perfor-mance of the vehicle and to pre-vent premature wear of the tyres,particularly in the case of arduousdriving conditions (heavy load,high speed). The system may temporarily be disturbed by radio broadcasts ona frequency close to it.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION145

Fold the jack by pressing at the ends Aand place it in one of the
four locations Eunderneath the
vehicle (the nearest one to thewheel to be changed).
 Extend the jack, first by hand, pul-ling the ends Athen using wheel-
brace 1and the extension 3.
 Remove a wheel bolt at the topand fit the centralising tool 2 in its
place.
 Unscrew the other bolts andremove the wheel.
Fitting a wheel  Position the wheel using the cen-tralising tool to assist you.
 Tighten the bolts by hand andremove the centralising tool. 
Partly tighten the bolts using thewheelbrace.
 Fold the jack and remove it.
 Fully tighten the bolts using thewheelbrace.
 Replace the wheel trim.
 Put the tool holder back in posi-
tion. This helps to keep the bootfloor in its correct position, to pre-vent any deformation of the floorwhen loaded.
 Tighten the spare wheel securingstrap to prevent noise and for yoursafety in the event of impact.
For your safety, alwayschange the wheel:
- on level, stable, non-slippery
ground,
- with the handbrake applied,
- with first or reverse gear enga- ged (position Pfor the automatic
gearbox),
- never go underneath a vehicle which is supported only by a jack (use a ramp).
After changing the wheel:
- have the tightening of the bolts and the tyre pressure checked by a PEUGEOT dealer as soonas possible.
- have the punctured wheel repai- red and refit it to the vehicle assoon as possible.
Tyres fitted with the Tyre Under-Inflation Detection System. These wheels have a pressure
sensor. Have them repaired by a
PEUGEOT dealer.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN,
BOAT ETC...
Only use original PEUGEOT tow bars which have been tested andapproved from the design stage ofyour vehicle. The tow bar must be fitted by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Driving advice Distribution of loads:distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest loads are as close as possible to theaxle and the nose weight is close tothe maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it. Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.As the fan is electronically 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. In all cases, pay attention to thecoolant temperature. Note:
in certain cases of particularly
arduous use (towing the maximum load up a steep slope in high tempe-ratures), the engine automatically
limits its power. In this case, cutting
off the air conditioning allows theengine power to be recovered, andtherefore the towing capacity to beincreased. If the coolant temperature warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as soon as pos-sible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle (label on the cen- tral door pillar on the driver's side)and of the trailer towed, observingthe recommended pressure. Brakes: towing increases the bra-
king distance. Drive at a moderate speed, change down early and brake
gradually. Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a moderate speed. Lighting Manual adjustmentAdjust your headlamps so as not to dazzle other road users. Check the
electrical signalling of the trailer. Automatic headlamp adjustment (Automatic beam correction) For vehicles with Xenon bulbs, this system automatically corrects theheight of the beam, whatever the
load of the vehicle. The driver isthen assured of having optimum ligh-ting and not causing a nuisance toother road users. In cases of malfunction, the driver is alerted by means of the warning lighton the instrument panel and the sys-tem adjusts your headlamps to thelow position.
