CHECKS
At the start of winter, have
your battery checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Have the fi lter elements
replaced regularly. If you drive
in dusty conditions, change
them twice as often.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
It is imperative that the particle emis-
sion fi lter is maintained in accordance
with the manufacturer’s servicing
schedule, by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Note: following prolonged operation of
the vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice emissions of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does not
have any effect on the performance of
the vehicle or the environment.
On vehicles which are fi tted with a
particle emission fi lter, the fan as-
sembly may operate after the vehicle
has stopped, even when the engine is
cold. Where the handbrake travel is
too great or there is a reduc-
tion in the performance of the
system, the handbrake should
be adjusted.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.

Disc wear status
For any information relating to checking
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
FUEL SUPPLY CUT-OFF
(PETROL) *
As a safety precaution, in certain circum-stances, a mechanism prevents fuel from reaching the engine. To re-establish the fuel supply:
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL (DIESEL)
If you should run out of fuel, it is neces-
sary to re-prime the circuit.
The repriming pump and the degas
screw are located under the bonnet
(see corresponding illustration in the
technical data section):
1.6 litre 16V HDI engine
- fi ll the fuel tank with at least fi ve
litres of diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual re-priming pump, until fuel appears
in the transparent pipe,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
2 litre 16V HDI engine
- fi ll the fuel tank with at least fi ve litres of diesel,
- unscrew the degas screw,
- squeeze and release the manual repriming pump until diesel is seen
escaping via the degas screw,
- retighten the degas screw,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
Brake pad wear depends on
the style of driving, in particu-
lar for vehicles which are used
in town, over short distances.
Brake pads It may be necessary to check
the thickness of the pads,
even between services.
* According to version.
To ensure the best perfor-
mance from components as

USB PLAYER - PLUG
The system puts together playlists (temporary memory) created over a period which depends on the capacity of the USB e quipment. The other sources are available during this time. The playlists are updated each time the ignition is switched off or each time a USB stick is connected. When connecting for the fi rst time, the tracks are classifi ed by folder. When you reconnect, the classifi cation system selec ted previously is retained.
Connect the stick to the port, directly or using a lead. If the audio equipment is switched on, the USB sour ce is detected as soon as it is connected. Play begins automatically after a delay which depends on the capacity of the USB stick. The fi le formats recognised are .mp3 (mpeg1 layer 3 only), .wma (standard 9 only), .wav and .ogg.
This unit consists of a USB port and a Jack socket * . It reads audio fi le formats (.mp3, .ogg, .wma, .wav...) which are transmitted from portable equipment such as a digital player or a USB stick to your PC Sound to be listened to via the vehicle's speakers.
USB stick (1.1, 1.2 and 2.0) or Ipod ® of ®
generation 5 or later: - the playlists accepted are of the type m3u, .pls, .wpl., - the Ipod ® lead is essential, ®
- navigation through the fi le base is by means of the steering wheel controls, - the battery of the portable equipment can charge automatically.
Other Ipod ® players of earlier generations ®
and players using the MTP protocol * : - play via Jack-Jack lead only(not supplied), - navigation through the fi le base is from the portable equipment.
The list of compatible equipment is available from PEUGEOT dealers. USING THE USB SOCKET - PLUG
