notes
Place the air low control at a level
suficient to ensure an adequate re
-
newal of air in the passenger com-
partment.
When the air low control is in the
OFF position (system switched off),
temperature-related comfort is no
longer guaranteed. However, a slight
low of air, due to the movement of
the vehicle, can still be felt.
Select the air distribution which is
most suited to your requirements and
the weather conditions.
Change the temperature setting pro-
gressively for greater comfort.
Place the air intake control in the
"Exterior air" position, this facilitates
demisting.
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a long period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.
To obtain a perfectly uniform distribu-
tion of air, do not cover the exterior
air intake grille, the vents, the air pas-
sages and the air outlets in the foot-
wells. In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (towing the maximum load
on a steep gradient in a high temper-
ature), cutting off the air conditioning
permits recovery of the engine power
and, therefore improvement of the
towing capacity.
Ensure that the passenger com-
partment ilter, located by the wind
-
screen, under the bonnet, is in good
condition. Have the ilter elements
replaced regularly. If you drive in a
dusty environment, change them
twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working
order.
The water formed by the condensa-
tion of the air conditioning system is
discharged via an opening provided
for this purpose. Therefore, a pud-
dle may form underneath the vehicle
when stationary.
If the system does not produce
cold air, do not use it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

ACCESS
62 -
OPENING THE BONNET
Inside the vehicle: pull the handle on
the left-hand side, under the fascia.
Outside the vehicle: lift the catch
and raise the bonnet.
BONNET STRUT
Secure the strut to hold the bonnet
open.
Before closing the bonnet, replace
the strut in its housing.
FILLING THE FUEL
TANK
The tank must be illed with fuel with
the engine switched off .
Insert the key then turn it to the left.
Remove the cap.
A label indicates which type of fuel to
use.
If you ill your tank, do not continue
after the third cut-off of the pump
nozzle. This could result in vehicle
malfunctions.
The capacity of the tank is approx-
imately 50 litres.
To close
Lower the bonnet and release it at
the end of its travel.
Check that the bonnet is locked.

CHECKS

CHECKS
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 dealer. Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT
or products of equivalent
quality and speciications.
To ensure best performance from
components as important as the
power steering and the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers quite speciic products.
To prevent damage to the electri-
cal units, avoid washing the en-
gine.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
(DIESEL)
If you should run out of fuel, it is
necessary to re-prime the circuit:
- ill the fuel tank with at least ive litres of diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual re-priming pump, until fuel
appears in the transparent pipe
under the bonnet,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to check the
thickness of the pads, even between
services.
Disc wear status
For any information relating to check-
ing the disc wear status, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer. Oil filter
Change the ilter regularly, in accord
-
ance with the servicing schedule.
Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Have the ilter elements replaced regu-
larly. If you drive in dusty condi-
tions, change them twice as often. Manual gearbox
This does not require an oil change.
Check the level in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and cer-
tain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corre-
spond to your vehicle's engine.
Battery
At the start of winter, have your bat-
tery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
