HYBRID SYSTEM

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 refi t 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.


Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) 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 overfl ow.


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 set-
tle down to a consistent average.

Dipstick
This is indicated by the fl ashing of "OIL"
,
linked with the service warning lamp, ac-
companied by an audible signal and a
message in the multifunction screen.
If the low oil level is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, the level must
be topped up to prevent damage to the
engine.

This is indicated by the fl ashing of "OIL --"
.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.

Refer to the "Checks" section to locate
the dipstick and the oil fi ller cap on your
engine.
There are 2 marks on the
dipstick:


- A
= max; never exceed
this level (risk of dam-
age to the engine),

- B
= min; top up the level
via the oil fi ller cap, using
the grade of oil suited to
your engine.

Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines

The Diesel engines are perfectly com-
patible with biofuels which conform to
current and future European standards
(Diesel fuel which complies with stan-
dard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which
complies with standard EN 14214)
available at the pumps (containing up
to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in cer-
tain Diesel engines; however, this use
is subject to strict application of the
special servicing conditions. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or dilut-
ed, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
system).



















MISFUEL PREVENTION
(DIESEL) *

Mechanical device which prevents fi ll-
ing the tank of a Diesel vehicle with
petrol. It avoids the risk of engine dam-
age that can result from fi lling with the
wrong fuel.
Located in the fi ller neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the
fi ller cap is removed.


Operation

When a petrol fi ller nozzle is introduced into
the fuel fi ller neck of your Diesel vehicle, it
comes into contact with the fl ap. The sys-
tem remains closed and prevents fi lling.


Do not persist but introduce a Diesel
type fi ller nozzle.


It remains possible to use a fuel can to
fi ll the tank; this must be done slowly.
In order to ensure a good fl ow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in
direct contact with the fl ap of the misfuel
prevention device.

* According to country of sale.

CHECKING LEVELS


Oil specifi cation


Oil level


The check is carried out either
when the ignition is switched on
using the oil level indicator on the
instrument panel, or using the dip-
stick.
This manual check will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30 minutes.
After topping up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel will only
be valid 30 minutes after topping up. The oil must be the correct
grade for your engine and con-
form to the manufacturer's rec-
ommendations.



Brake fluid level

The brake fl uid level should be close to
the "MAX" mark. If it is not, check the
brake pad wear.

Power steering fluid level

The power steering fl uid level
should be close to the "MAX"
mark. Unscrew the cap, with the
engine cold, to check the level.
It is normal to top up the oil level
between services. PEUGEOT
recommends that you check
the oil level and top up if necessary ev-
ery 3 000 miles (5 000 kilometres).
Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.

Changing the fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation. In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.

Coolant level

The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is regulated
by the fan. This can operate with the ig-
nition off.

On vehicles which are fi tted with a par-
ticle emission fi lter, the fan may oper-
ate after the vehicle has been switched
off, even if the engine is cold.

Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
When working under the bon-
net, take care, as certain ar-
eas of the engine may be
extremely hot (risk of burns).





Before doing anything under
the bonnet, switch off the igni-
tion ( Ready
lamp off) to avoid
any risk of injury resulting from auto-
matic operation of the engine.
Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the corre-
sponding system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.



Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
In the case of vehicles fi tted
with headlamp washers, the
low fl uid level is indicated by an
audible signal and a message
in the instrument panel screen.
Top up the reservoir when you stop the
vehicle.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and
meet the DOT4 standard.
