sible to restart it to drive a
short distance by operating
the pump at least 10 times.

be reprimed:
- fi l l t h e f u e l t a n k w i t h a t l e a s t fi v e litres of diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual repriming pump at least 10 times.

not start after approximately
15 seconds of attempts,
ope-rate the repriming pump
a g a i n a p p r o x i m a t e l y fi f t e e n
times before trying again.
If the emission control warning light
has come on, it will only switch off
after your vehicle has been used
several times.
Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
