2011 Peugeot Expert Tepee fuel pressure

18
Limit the causes of
excess consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bottom of
the boot, as close as possible to the rear
seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof
rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof
box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after
use.

At the end of winter, remove snow tyres
and refit your summer tyres.

Observe the recommendations
on maintenance


Check the tyre pressures regularly, when
cold, referring to the label in the door
aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres
on any trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and observe
the schedule of operations recommended
by the manufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any
overflow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after the fi rst 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

Instruments and controls


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.
