A few definitions…

When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After fi ll-
ing with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed when it
exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of
the digits, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop. This function is only displayed
from 20 mph (30 km/h).

This value may vary following a
change in the style of driving or
the relief, resulting in a signifi cant
change in the current fuel consumption.

Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled
with the fuel remaining in the tank in
relation to the average fuel consump-
tion over the last few miles (kilometres)
travelled.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel con-
sumption during the last few
seconds.

Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel
consumption since the last
trip computer zero reset.
Distance travelled
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
travelled since the last trip
computer zero reset.


Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed
calculated since the last trip com-
puter zero reset (ignition on).

Distance remaining to
destination
(miles or km)
This is the distance remaining
to be travelled to the fi nal destination. It
is either calculated instantly by the navi-
gation system, if guidance is activated,
or entered by the user.
If the distance is not entered, dashes
are displayed in place of the digits.








Stop & Start time counter

(minutes/seconds or hours/minutes)

If your vehicle is fi tted with
Stop & Start, a time counter cal-
culates the time spent in STOP mode
during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition
is switched on with the key.

Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and mainte-
nance guidelines below:


)
If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable time, fi rst ventilate the passenger com-
partment for a few minutes.
Place the air fl ow control at a suffi cient level to provide an adequate renewal
of air in the passenger compartment.

)
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.

)
Use in preference the intake of exterior air as prolonged use of the air recir-
culation may cause misting of the windows and side windows.

)
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for
regulation of the automatic air conditioning system.

)
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in good working order.

)
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and have
the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter. Thanks
to its second special active fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation of the air
breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compart-
ment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).

)
The air conditioning uses power from the engine while operating. This re-
sults in an increase in the vehicle's fuel consumption.
When towing at or near maximum capacity or on steep slopes in high ambi-
ent temperatures, switching off the air conditioning saves engine power and
so improves towing capacity.
Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water
under the vehicle when stationary, which is perfectly normal.

)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also ad-
vised to have it checked regularly.

)
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
The air conditioning system
does not contain chlorine and
does not present any danger
to the ozone layer.

Demisting/defrosting

The control button is located
on the air conditioning system
control panel.








REAR SCREEN DEMIST/
DEFROST



)
Switch off the demist/de-
frost of the rear screen and
door mirrors as soon as it
is no longer necessary as
lower current consump-
tion results in reduced fuel
consumption.



Switching on

The rear screen demist/defrost can only
operate when the engine is running.


)
Press this button to demist/defrost
the rear screen and the door mir-
rors. The indicator lamp associated
with the button comes on.



Switching off

The demist/defrost switches off auto-
matically to prevent an excessive con-
sumption of current.


)
It is possible to stop the demist/
defrost operation before it is switched
off automatically by pressing the but-
ton again. The indicator lamp associ-
ated with the button switches off.


5. Air conditioning On/Off
The air conditioning is de-
signed to operate effectively in
all seasons, with the windows
closed.
It enables you to:


- lower the temperature, in summer,

- increase the effectiveness of the
demisting in winter, above 3 °C.


Switching off


)
Press the "A/C"
button again, the
button's indicator lamp goes off.
Switching off may affect comfort levels
(humidity, condensation).

Switching on


)
Press the "A/C"
button, the button's
indicator lamp comes on.
The air conditioning does not operate
when the air fl ow adjustment control 2

is in position " 0
".
To obtain cooled air more quickly, you
can use recycling of the interior air for
a few moments. Then return to fresh air
intake. The marking on the control
panel indicates the position of
the controls to quickly demist
or defrost the windscreen and
side windows:


)
place the air intake control 4
in the
"Exterior air intake" position (indica-
tor lamp off),

)
place the air distribution dial 3
in the
"Windscreen position",

)
place the air fl ow dial 2
in position 5
(maximum),

)
place the temperature dial 1
in the
red position (hot).







With Stop & Start, when de-
misting has been activated, the
STOP mode is not available.

87
ACCESS

The key cannot be removed
from the lock until the cap is
put back on the tank.
Opening the cap may trigger an in-
rush of air. This vacuum, which is
completely normal, is caused by the
sealing of the fuel system.



























FUEL TANK


Capacity of the tank: approximately
60 litres.

To fi ll the tank safely:


)
the engine must be switched off,


)
open the fuel fi ller fl ap,

)
insert the key in the cap, then turn it
to the left,


When refuelling is complete:


)
put the cap back in place,

)
turn the key to the right, then remove
it from the cap,

)
close the fi ller fl ap.

)
remove the cap and secure it on the
hook, located on the inside of the fl ap,

)
fi ll the tank, but do not continue af-
ter the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle
;
this could cause malfunctions.

Low fuel level

Operating fault

A malfunction of the fuel gauge is indi-
cated by the return to zero of the fuel
gauge needle.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.


Refuelling

A label affi xed to the inside of the fi ller
fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used according to your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be add-
ed in order to be registered by the fuel
gauge. When the low fuel level is
reached, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the multifunction screen. When the
lamp fi rst comes on, there is approxi-
mately
6 litres
of fuel remaining.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the
ignition is switched on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message. When
driving, this audible signal and message
are repeated with increasing frequency,
as the fuel level drops towards "0"
.
You must refuel to avoid run-
ning out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer
also to the "Checks" section.






With Stop & Start, never re-
fuel with the system in STOP
mode; you must switch off the
ignition with the key.

ACCESS










Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines

The petrol engines are perfectly com-
patible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % etha-
nol), conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for ve-
hicles marketed for the use of this type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of
the ethanol must comply with European
standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up
to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).














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 *

Mechanical device which prevents fi lling
the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It
avoids the risk of engine damage 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 system
remains closed and prevents fi lling.

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


It is still possible to use a fuel
can to fi ll the reservoir.
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.

Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be dif-
ferent in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may
make refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we recommend
that you check with the PEUGEOT dealer
network, whether your vehicle is suitable
for the fuel pumps in the country in which
you want to travel.


* According to destination country.

SAFETY

Mud mode
Mode which, when moving off allows
considerable spin on the wheel with the
least grip to optimise clearing of the mud
and regain grip. At the same time, the
wheel with the most grip is controlled in
such a way as to pass as much torque
as possible.
When moving, the system optimises
wheel spin to respond to the driver's re-
quirements as fully as possible.
Sand mode
Mode which allows little spin on the two
driving wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and limit
the risks of getting stuck in the sand.
Driving advice
Your vehicle is designed princi-
pally to drive on tarmac roads
but it allows you to drive on other less
passable terrain occasionally.
However, it does not permit all-terrain
activities such as:


- crossing and driving on terrain
which could damage the under-
body or strip away components
(fuel pipe, fuel cooler, ...) due to
obstacles or stones in particular,

- driving on terrain with steep gra-
dients and poor grip,

- crossing a stream.




)
Place the dial in this position.


)
Place the dial in this position.
ESP OFF mode


)
Place the dial in this po-
sition.
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.

This mode is active up to 30 mph (50 km/h).

DRIVING







6-SPEED MANUAL GEARBOX

As a safety precaution and to fa-
cilitate starting of the engine: Only engage reverse gear
when the vehicle is stationary
with the engine at idle.

Engaging 5th or 6th gear



)
Move the lever fully to the right to
engage 5th or 6th gear.


* According to engine.












GEAR EFFICIENCY INDICATOR *

System which reduces fuel consumption
by advising the driver to change up on
vehicles fi tted with a manual gearbox.


Operation

The system intervenes only when driv-
ing economically.
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may advise you to skip one or more
gears. You can follow this instruc-
tion without engaging the intermediate
gears.
The gear recommended should not
be considered compulsory. In fact, the
confi guration of the road, the amount
of traffi c and safety remain determining
factors when choosing the best gear.
Therefore, the driver remains responsi-
ble for deciding whether or not to follow
the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Example:


- You are in third gear.

In the case of driving which
makes particular demands on
the performance of the engine
(fi rm pressure on the accelerator
pedal, for example, when overtak-
ing...), the system will not recom-
mend a gear change.
The system never suggests:


- engaging fi rst gear,

- engaging reverse gear,

- engaging a lower gear.


- You press the accelerator pedal
moderately.

- The system may suggest that you
engage a higher gear, if appropriate.

The information appears in the form
of an arrow in the instrument panel
screen.
Depending on your vehicle's equipment,
this arrow may be accompanied by the
recommended gear.

This equipment will become available
during the year.

- always select neutral,

- press the clutch pedal.


Engaging reverse gear



)
Raise the ring under the knob and
move the gear lever to the left then
forwards.
