FUEL GAUGE

The fuel level is tested each time the key is
turned to the "running" position.
The gauge is positioned on:
COOLANT TEMPERATURE


The needle is positioned before the red
zone:
normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations.
What you should do if the warning lamp
comes on:


- stop immediately, switch off the ignition. The
fan may continue to operate for a certain
time up to approximately 10 minutes,


- 1:
the fuel tank is full, approximately
80 litres.

- 0:
the reserve is now being used, the
warning light comes on continuously.
The reserve when the warning first comes
on is approximately 8 litres.
Refer to the "Fuel" section of chapter 6.
What you should do if the needle enters
the red zone:
Reduce your speed or let the engine run
at idle.
- wait for the engine to cool down in order
to check the coolant level and top it up if
necessary.
As the cooling system is pressurised, follow
this advice in order to avoid any risk of
scalding:


- wait at least one hour after switching off
the engine before carrying out any work,

- unscrew the cap by 1/4 turn to allow the
pressure to drop,

- when the pressure has dropped, check
the level on the expansion bottle,

- if necessary, remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone, have
the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Refer to the "Levels" section of chapter 6.

Ventilation
Intake of exterior air

Recommended settings

For optimum operation of the manual system, the settings below are recommended: The diode on the button is off.
This is the preferred operating
position.
The diode on the button is lit.
Recirculation temporarily prevents
exterior odours and smoke
from entering the passenger
compartment.
Used with the air conditioning switched
on and setting of the force of blown air
(from 1 to 4), recirculation enables you to
obtain the required ambient air comfort level
more quickly with both hot or cold settings.
This position should only be temporary.
When your ambient air comfort level has
been reached, return to the intake of exterior
air position to permit renewal of the air in the
passenger compartment and avoid misting.
This operating mode is preferable.

AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING WITH SEPARATE ADJUSTMENTS
Good practice

For maximum cooling or heating of the
passenger compartment, it is possible to exceed
the value 15 by turning until LO is displayed or
the value 27 by turning until HI is displayed.
For optimum comfort, the difference between
the value displayed for the driver and for the
passenger should not be greater than 3. If your vehicle is fitted with this control
panel, it is located on the centre console. On entering the vehicle, the inside
temperature may be much colder (or warmer)
than is comfortable. There is no advantage
in changing the value displayed in order to
quickly reach the level of comfort required.
The system will use its maximum performance
to reach the comfort value set.

Air flow
Press the small fan
button to
reduce the flow or the large fan
button to increase the flow.
On the display, the blades of the fan darken
when the flow is increased.
Manual operation

You can, according to your requirements,
make a different selection from that offered
by the system by changing a setting.
The other functions will still be controlled
automatically. Pressing the AUTO
button
restores fully automatic operation.
Intake of exterior air/
Recirculation of interior air

Press this button to recirculate
the interior air. The recirculation
symbol is displayed.
Recirculation prevents exterior odours
and smoke from entering the passenger
compartment. Avoid prolonged operation
in interior air recirculation mode (risk of
condensation, odour and humidity).
Pressing this button again activates the
intake of exterior air.
Air distribution
Pressing this button several times
in succession directs the air flow
towards:


- the windscreen,

- the windscreen and footwells,

- the footwells,

- the side vents, central vents and
footwells,

- the side vents and central vents.

Deactivating the system
Press the air flow small fan
button
until the fan symbol disappears.
This action deactivates all of the system's
functions, with the exception of the air
recirculation and rear screen demisting
(if fitted on your vehicle). Your comfort
setting is no longer maintained and is
switched off.
For your comfort, do not deactivate the
system for long periods.
Pressing the large fan
button or
the AUTO
button reactivates the
system with the values set before
it was deactivated.
Switching the air conditioning
On/Off
Press this button, the A/C
symbol is displayed and the air
conditioning is activated.
Pressing this button again switches off the
air cooling.

For more information about weights,
refer to the administrative documents
(V5 registration document, ...) or to the
"Weights" section of chapter 8.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...


Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest objects are as close as possible
to the axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.

Driving advice

A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.

Levels


Cooling system

Only use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging
your engine.
When the engine is warm, the temperature
of the coolant is controlled by the engine
fan. As this fan can operate with the ignition
key removed and because the cooling
system is pressurised, wait for at least one
hour after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to release
the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding.
When the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap and top up the level with coolant.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a fault which must be checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible. The vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap
integrated with the gauge and check the
level which must be between the MIN and
MAX marks.


Diesel additive level (Diesel
with particle emission filter)
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the
service warning light, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the screen.
When this occurs with the engine running it
is due to the start of saturation of the particle
emission filter (exceptionally prolonged
urban type driving conditions: low speed,
long traffic jams, ...).
In order to regenerate the filter, you are
advised to drive at a speed higher than
40 mph (60 km/h) for at least five minutes
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions
permit (until the message disappears and
the service warning lamp goes off).
During regeneration of the particle emission
filter, relay noise may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and if the
service warning lamp remains on, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Topping up
The level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the expansion bottle. If
more than 1 litre of fluid is required to top
up the level, have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Screenwash and headlamp wash level

For best quality cleaning and for your safety,
we would advise that you use products of
the PEUGEOT range.
Capacity of the screenwash reservoir:
approximately 4.5 litres.
If your vehicle is fitted with headlamp
washers, the capacity of the reservoir is
7.5 litres.
To ensure optimum cleaning and prevent
freezing, this fluid must not be topped up
or replaced with plain water.

Topping up
This additive must be topped up by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.

Checks
Manual gearbox

Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and certain
components, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule, refer to
the pages of the servicing booklet which
correspond to your vehicle's engine.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as
important as the braking system, PEUGEOT
selects and offers specific products.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical
units, high pressure washing to clean the
engine compartment is strictly prohibited.

1.6 litre HDi

2 litre HDi


Bleeding the water contained in theDiesel filter

If this warning lamp comes on,
bleed the filter. Otherwise bleed
regularly each time the engine oil
is changed.
To evacuate the water, unscrew the bleed
screw located on the end of the transparent
pipe.
Operate until all of the water in the
transparent pipe has been drained out then
tighten the bleed screw.
HDi engines use advanced technology.
Contact a PEUGEOT or a qualified
workshop for all work on the system. During this regeneration, you may notice
that the idling speed is higher than normal
and that the cooling fan is running. As
operation of the exhaust emissions controls
may cause the exhaust gas temperature to
reach very high levels, it is recommended
that you do not stop the vehicle over easily
inflammable surfaces (dry grass and leaves,
pine needles, edge of a meadow or forest).
