[x] Cancel search: spare tyrePage 28 of 328
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.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the
tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and ob-
serve the schedule of operations rec-
ommended 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 settle down to a
consistent average.

SAFETY
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
System which automatically checks the
pressure of the tyres while driving.
All repairs and changing of
tyres on a wheel fi tted with this
system must be carried out by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
If, when changing a tyre, you install
a wheel which is not detected by
your vehicle (example: fi tting of snow
tyres), you must have the system re-
initialised by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
This system does not avoid
the need to have the tyre pres-
sures checked regularly (refer
to the "Identifi cation markings" sec-
tion) to ensure that the optimum dy-
namic performance of the vehicle is
maintained and prevent premature
wear of the tyres, particularly in ar-
duous driving conditions (heavy load,
high speed).
The tyre pressures must be checked
cold, at least once a month. Re-
member to check the pressure of the
spare wheel.
The tyre under-infl ation detection
system may experience temporary
interference due to electromagnetic
emissions on a frequency close to
that used by the system.
Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a
warning in the event of malfunction
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).
The spare wheel is not fi tted with a sensor.
This warning lamp is displayed in the
instrument panel and/or a message
appears in the multifunction screen,
accompanied by an audible signal, to
identify the wheel concerned.
)
Check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
This check must be carried out when the
tyres are cold.
Under-infl ated tyre
The STOP
warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
multifunction screen identifying the
wheel concerned.
)
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so,
avoiding any sudden movement of
the steering wheel and the brakes.
)
Change the damaged wheel (punc-
tured or very defl ated tyre), and
have the tyre pressure checked as
soon as possible.
Puncture
The tyre under-infl ation detec-
tion system is an aid to driv-
ing which does not replace the
need for the driver to be vigilant or to
drive responsibly.
Sensor(s) not detected or faulty
A message appears in the multifunc-
tion screen, accompanied by an audible
signal, to identify the wheel or wheels
which are not detected or to indicate a
fault in the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to replace the faulty sensor(s).
This message is also dis-
played when one of the wheels
is away from the vehicle (be-
ing repaired) or when one or more
wheels without a sensor are fi tted.

TECHNICAL DATA
IDENTIFICATION MARKINGS
Various visible markings for the identifi -
cation and tracing of your vehicle.
Low tyre pressures increase
fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures must be
checked when the tyres are
cold, at least once a month.
A.
Vehicle Identifi cation Number (VIN)
under the bonnet.
This number is engraved on the
bodywork near the damper support.
B.
Vehicle identifi cation Number (VIN) on
the windscreen lower crossmember.
This number is indicated on a self-
adhesive label which is visible
through the windscreen.
C.
Manufacturer's label.
The VIN is indicated on a self-
destroying label affi xed to the door
aperture, on the driver's side.
D.
Tyre/paint label.
This label is fi tted to the door aperture
or middle pillar, on the driver's side.
It bears the following information:
- the tyre infl ation pressures with and
without load,
- the wheel rim and tyre sizes,
- the brands of tyre recommended by
the manufacturer,
- the infl ation pressure of the spare
wheel,
- the paint colour code.
