In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and of-
fers very specifi c products.
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compartment
is strictly prohibited .
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the Warranty and
Maintenance Record for de-
tails of the checking intervals
for this component. Brake disc wear
For any information relating
to checking of the brake disc
wear, contact a PEUGEOT

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the Warranty and
Maintenance Record for details
of the level checking intervals
for this component.
Brake pads Brake wear depends on the
style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It
may be necessary to have the
condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn. Parking brake
If the parking brake travel is
too long or if you notice a loss
of effectiveness of this sys-
tem, the parking brake must
be adjusted, even between
two services.
This system must be checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.

TEMPORARY PUNCTURE
REPAIR KIT
Complete system consisting of a com-
pressor and an incorporated sealant
cartridge which permits temporary re-
pair of the tyre so that you can drive to
the nearest garage.
Access to the kit
This repair kit is available from
PEUGEOT dealers.
It is designed to repair most punc-
tures which could affect the tyre,
located on the tyre tread or shoul-
der. Avoid removing any foreign
bodies which have penetrated the
tyre. Using the kit
This procedure, comprising several
steps, must be carried out in full.

 Switch off the ignition.


Turn the selector A to the "SEALANT"
position.

 Check that the switch B is in position "0" .

 Connect the white pipe C to the
valve of the tyre to be repaired.

 Connect the compressor's electric
plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket.

 Affi x the speed limitation sticker
to the vehicle's steering wheel to
remind you that a wheel is in tem-

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
121

 Switch on the compressor by mov-
ing the switch B to position "1" until
the tyre pressure reaches 2.0 bars.

 Remove the kit, taking care to avoid
staining your vehicle with traces of
fl uid. Keep the kit to hand.

 Drive immediately for approximate-
ly three miles (fi ve kilometres), at
reduced speed (between 15 and
35 mph [20 and 60 km/h]), to plug
the puncture.

 Stop to check the repair and the tyre
pressure using the kit.


Turn the selector A to the AIR position.

 Connect the black pipe D to the
valve of the wheel. If after around 5 to 7 minutes
the pressure is not attained, this
indicates that the tyre is not re-
pairable; contact a PEUGEOT
dealer for assistance.
Checking tyre pressures/
infl ating accessories
You can use this kit to infl ate other
accessories such as a ball or bi-
cycle tyres.
To do this, turn the selector to the
"Infl ation (AIR)" position, connect
the black pipe with the appropri-
ate adaptor to the accessory to
be infl ated, then follow the rest
of the procedure below as far as
removal of the kit.
You can also use this kit for rou-
tine checking and adjustment
of the tyre pressures on your
vehicle. For this, carry out just the
following 6 points.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
122

 Connect the compressor's electric
plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket.

 Start the vehicle again and leave the
engine running.

 Adjust the pressure using the com-
pressor (to infl ate: switch B in
position "1" ; to defl ate: switch B in
position "0" and press button E ), in
accordance with the vehicle's tyre
pressure label (located on the left
hand door aperture).
A loss of pressure indicates that the puncture has not been fully plugged;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer for as-
sistance.

 Remove and stow the kit. Take care, this product is harm-
ful (e.g. ethylene-glycol, coloph-
ony, ethanediol...) if swallowed
and causes irritation to the eyes.
Keep it out of reach of children.
The expiry date of the fl uid is
indicated on the cartridge
The sealant cartridge is designed
for single use; even if only partly
used, it must be replaced.
To remove the cartridge, unscrew
it completely at its cap and pull
off.
After use, do not discard the car-
tridge into the environment, take
it to an authorised waste disposal
site or a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not forget to obtain a new
sealant cartridge, available from
PEUGEOT dealers.

 Visit a PEUGEOT dealer as
soon as possible.
After inspection of the tyre, a technician will be able to ad-
vise you whether the tyre can
be repaired or must be re-
placed.

 Drive at reduced speed (50 mph
[80 km/h] max) limiting the distance
travelled to approximately 120 miles
(200 km).

Immobilise the vehicle where it
does not block traffi c: if possible,
park the vehicle on level, stable
and non-slippery ground.
Apply the parking brake, switch off
the ignition and engage fi rst gear *
to lock the wheels.
If necessary, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the

raised using a jack; use an axle
stand.

wheelbrace 1 only.

 Place the jack 2 in contact with one
of the two front A or rear B locations
provided on the underframe, which-
ever is closest to the wheel to be
changed.

 Extend the jack 2 until its base plate
is in contact with the ground. Ensure
that the centreline of the jack base
plate is directly below the location A
or B used.

 Raise the vehicle until there is suf-
fi cient space between the wheel and
the ground to admit the spare (not
punctured) wheel easily.

 Remove the bolts and store them in
a clean place.
