Limit the causes of excess
consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bot-
tom 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
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 settle down to
a consistent average.

Engine oil level indicator

When the ignition is switched on,
the engine oil level is indicated for
approximately 10 seconds, after the
service information.
Flashing of the six squares and the
display of "max" indicate that the oil
level is too high, which could damage
the engine.
If the excess oil is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer without delay. Your PEUGEOT dealer carries out
this operation after each service.
The reset procedure is as follows:


- Switch off the ignition.

- Press and hold button 1
.

- Switch on the ignition.
The display begins a 10 second count-
down.


-
Keep button 1
pressed for 10 seconds.

The display shows [=0]
and the span-
ner disappears.

Flashing of the six bars and the dis-
play of "min" indicate that the oil level
is too low, which could damage the
engine.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, it is essen-
tial that the level is topped up. Flashing of the six bars indicates a
malfunction of the oil level indicator.
There is a risk of damage to the
engine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

The level read on the dipstick or on
the indicator will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.

29COMFORT-
VENTILATION


1.
Windscreen de-icing or
demisting vents.

2.
Front window de-icing or
demisting vents.

3.
Side vents.

4.
Centre vents.

5.
Air outlets to front footwells. The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month, to keep it in perfect working
order.
The water created by the air condi-
tioning condensation is discharged
via an opening provided for this pur-
pose. Therefore, a puddle of water
may form underneath the vehicle
when stationary.
If the system does not produce
cold air, do not use it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

De-icing the rear windows and
mirrors
With the engine running, pressing
the control de-ices the rear windows
and mirrors.
It switches off automatically after
approximately twelve minutes.
Pressing the control again switches
the de-icing system on again for
twelve minutes.
It is possible to switch off the de-
icing by pressing the control before
the twelve minutes have elapsed.



Advice on operation

Select the air distribution most suited
to your requirements and the climatic
conditions.
Gradually adjust the temperature
setting for your comfort.
Position the air control in the ''Outside
Air'' position.
For perfectly even air distribution,
take care not to obstruct the exterior
air intake grille and the vents. Check
that the passenger compartment fi lter
is in good condition.
When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air, the
ventilation will increase to its opti-
mum level gradually.
In order to be effective, the air condi-
tioning ( A/C
button), should only be
used with the windows closed.
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a prolonged period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.

53ACCESS and STARTING
-
OPENING THE BONNET

Inside the vehicle:
pull the lever on
the left-hand side, under the dash-
board.

Outside the vehicle:
lift the safety
catch and raise the bonnet.
BONNET STAY

Secure the stay to hold the bonnet
open.
Before closing the bonnet, return the
stay to its housing.

FILLING WITH FUEL

When the minimum
fuel level in the tank is
reached, this warning
light comes on. When the cap is removed,
the right-hand sliding side
door cannot be opened.
The key cannot be removed
from the lock until the cap
has been replaced on the
fuel tank.
A label reminds you which type of
fuel to use.
When you fi ll your tank, do not con-
tinue after the third cut-off of the
pump. This could cause your vehicle
to malfunction.
To close
Lower the bonnet and release it at
the end of its travel.
Check that the bonnet has latched
correctly.

Low fuel level
You have enough fuel remaining
to drive for approximately 30 miles
(50 km).

The engine must be switched off

when fi lling with fuel.


)
Insert the key then turn it to the left.

)
Remove the cap.

The capacity of the tank is approx-
imately 55 litres for petrol engines
and 60 litres for Diesel engines.



)
After fi lling the tank, lock the cap. When the engine is hot, take
care when handling the safe-
ty catch and the bonnet stay
(risk of burns).

CHECKING LEVELS

Dipstick

Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.

Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer's requirements.

Note:
the coolant does not need to
be changed.

For vehicles equipped with a par-
ticle fi lter, the engine fan may ope-
rate after the ignition has been
switched off, even when the engine
is cold.
There are two marks
on the dipstick:

A
= maximum

Never fi ll past this mark.


B
= minimum
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil
is prohibited.


Brake fluid level

The brake fl uid must be changed ac-
cording to the manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
Use fl uids recommended by the manu-
facturer, which fulfi l DOT4 standards.


Cooling system

Use the fl uid recommended by the
manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can op-
erate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.

Power steering reservoir



)
Open the reservoir, with the en-
gine at ambient temperature. The
level should always be above the
MIN. mark and close to the MAX.
mark.



Windscreen and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for
your safety, we would advise that
you use products recommended by
PEUGEOT.
For optimum cleaning and to prevent
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up or replaced with water.


Used products

Avoid products such as used oil and
brake fl uid coming into prolonged
contact with the skin.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake
fl uid or coolant into drains or onto
the ground. Empty used oil into the
containers provided for this purpose
in the PEUGEOT dealer network
(France) or to an authorised waste
disposal site.


Oil level

It is normal to top up the engine oil
between services. PEUGEOT recom-
mends that you check the oil level, and
top up if necessary, every 3 000 miles
(5 000 kilometres).
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the oil level gauge
on the instrument panel or the dipstick.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
78 -
CHECKS
Oil filter

Change the fi lter regularly, in accordance
with the servicing schedule.

Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT or
products of equivalent quality
and specifi cations.
To ensure best performance from
components as important as the
power steering and the braking sys-
tem, PEUGEOT selects and offers
quite specifi c products.
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, avoid washing the engine.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL (DIESEL)

If you should run out of fuel, it is ne-
cessary to re-prime the circuit:


- fi ll the fuel tank with at least fi ve litres
of diesel,

- squeeze and release the manual
re-priming pump, under the bonnet
under the protective cover, until fuel
appears in the transparent pipe,

- operate the starter until the engine
starts.
FUEL SUPPLY CUT-OFF(PETROL)

In a serious collision, a mechanism pre-
vents fuel from reaching the engine.
To re-establish the fuel supply, press
the switch on the corner of the front
right-hand suspension assembly, under
the bonnet.

Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Have the fi lter elements replaced
regularly. If you drive in dusty condi-
tions, change them twice as often.



Brake pads

Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to check the
thickness of the pads, even between
services.


Disc and drum wear status

For any information relating to check-
ing the disc and drum wear status,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.


Manual gearbox

This does not require an oil change.
Check the level in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.

To check the main levels and cer-
tain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which cor-
respond to your vehicle's engine.



Handbrake

Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.


Battery

At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
