DIESEL
Access
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible
with biofuels which conform to current andfuture European standards (Diesel fuel which complies with standard 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 ser vicing conditions. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The use of an
y other type of (bio)fuel(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).

Repair procedure
1. Sealing ) Uncoil the white pipe G
fully. )
Unscrew the cap from the white pipe. )
Connect the white pipe to the valve of the
tyre to be repaired.
)Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket. )Star t the vehicle and leave the engine running.
Take care, this product is harmful (e.g. ethylene-glycol, colophony...) if swallowed and causes irritation to the eyes. Keep this product out of the reach of children.
Avoid removing any foreign bodieswhich have penetrated into the tyre.
)Switch off the ignition.
)Turn the selector Ato the "sealant"position. )Check that the switch B
is in position "O".
Do not star t the compressor before connecting the white pipe to the tyre valve: the sealant product would be
expelled through the pipe.

2. Infl ation )
Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket. ) Star t the vehicle again and leave the engine running.
)Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B
in position "I"
; to deflate: switch B
in position "O"and press button C), in accordance with the vehicle's
tyre pressure label (located on the left hand
door aperture).
A loss of pressure indicates that thepuncture has not been fully plugged; contact a PEUGEOT dealer or qualified
workshop for assistance. )Remove and stow the kit. )Drive at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h] max) limiting the distance travelled to
approximately 120 miles (200 km).
As soon as possible, go to a PEUGEOTdealer or a qualified workshop.You must inform the technician that you have used this kit. After inspection, the technician will advise you on whether
the tyre can be repaired or if it must be replaced.
)Turn the selector Ato the "air" position. )Uncoil the black pipe Hfully. )Connect the black pipe to the
valve of the wheel.

Removing the cartridge
)Stow the black pipe. )Detach the angled base from the white pipe. )Suppor t the compressor ver tically. )Unscrew the car tridge from the bottom.
Beware of discharges of fluid.
The expiry date of the fluid is indicated on the car tridge.
The sealant car tridge is designed for single use; even if only partly used, it must be replaced. After use, do not discard the car tridgeinto the environment, take it to an authorised waste disposal site or a PEUGEOT dealer.
Do not forget to obtain a new sealantcartridge, available from PEUGEOT dealers or from a qualified workshop.
Checking tyre pressures /
inflating accessories
You can also use the compressor, withoutinjecting any product, to:
- check or adjust the pressure of your tyres,
- inflate other accessories (balls, bicycle
tyres...).
)
Turn the selector Ato the "Air"
position.
) Uncoil the black pipe H
fully. )
Connect the black pipe to the
valve of the wheel or accessory.
If necessary, fit one of the adaptorssupplied with the kit first.
) Connect the compressor's electrical connector to the vehicle's 12 V socket. )
Star t the vehicle and let the engine run. )
Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B
in position "I"
; to deflate: switch B
in position "O"and press button C), according to the vehicle's tyrepressure label or the accessory's pressure
label. ) Remove the kit then stow it.

Checks
Checking levels
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
switch off the ignition (Ready
lamp off) to avoid any risk of injury resulting fromautomatic operation of the engine.
Oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the oil level indicator on the instrumentpanel, or using the dipstick.
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.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two ser vices (or oil changes). PEUGEOT
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
After topping up the oil, the check when switching on the ignition with the oil levelindicator in the instrument panel is not validduring the 30 minutes after topping up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for details of
the inter val 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.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must be the correct grade for your
engine and conform to the manufacturer'srecommendations.
Th
e brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.
Brake fluid level
Changing the fl uid
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for details of
the inter val for this operation.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fluid must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations and meet theDOT4 standard.
Power steering fluid level
The power steering fluid level shouldbe close to the "MA X" mark. With
the engine cold, unscrew the cap tocheck the level.
If a level drops si
gnificantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Check all of these levels regularly and top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
Take care when working under the
bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns).

Checks
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin. Most of these fluids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids intosewers or onto the ground. Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop (France) or to an authorised waste disposal site.

A low additive level is indicated by illumination
of the ser vice warning lamp, accompanied by an audible warning and a message in the
instrument panel screen.

12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check that the terminals
are clean and correctl
y tightened,
particularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer to
the "Practical information" section for details of
the precautions to be taken before disconnectingthe battery and following its reconnection. Refer to the servicin
g booklet for
details of the replacement inter vals
for these components.
Dependin
g on the environment (e.g.
dusty atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often if necessary.y A clogged passenger compar tment filter mayhave an adverse effect on the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate undesirable odours.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the servicing booklet for
details of the replacement inter val
for this component.
Oil filter
The presence of this label, in particular with
the Stop & Star t system, indicates the use of
a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
technology and specification. The involvement
of a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshopis essential when replacing or disconnectingthe battery. Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the ser vicing booklet and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Before doing anything under the bonnet,switch off the ignition (Readylamp off) to avoid any risk of injury resulting from automatic operation of the engine.
