Deactivation of manual height correction
Good practice
When stationary and with the ignition key
removed, excessive use of the s
ystem
consumes battery power.
Long term parking

Avoid parking for a long duration on ground
which could
present a potential obstacle as
your vehicle could lower.
Followin
g a long period out of use, the
height of the platform may change due to the
automatic hei
ght correction on unlocking or
on openin
g one of your vehicle's doors. With the vehicle stationar
y:


- press and hold,

- release the control.

Return to manual height correction

According to the configuration, a beep may
be heard during these operations.
You must deactivate the manual hei
ght
correction in the following situations:


- when working underneath the vehicle,

- when changing a wheel,

- when the vehicle is being transported by
lorry, train, ferry, boat, ...


Warning lamp Driving with the height o
f the rear platform:


- too low, risks damaging the technical
components underneath the vehicle,

- too high, risks unstable driving.
With the vehicle stationary:


- press and hold,

- release the control. R
efer to the "Instruments and controls"
section of chapter 2.
If you start and the warning lamp flashes, to
switch it off:


- correct the position of the manual
control which is still at the lower or
upper limit,

- or drive slowly at above 6 mph (10 km/h),
until height correction returns to automatic
mode. Return to manual correction is confirmed b
y
the LED which goes off. Deactivation is con
firmed by the LED which
is on. It remains on
for approximately
30 seconds.

CHECKS


Battery

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


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.
Unless there is a leak in the system, a drop
in the brake fluid level indicates that the
brake pads are worn.


Brake disc / drum wear

For any information on checking the brake
disc / drum wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.


Parking brake

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


Oil filter

Change the filter regularly, in accordance
with the servicing schedule.


Carbon filter and passenger
compartment filter
The carbon filter permits continuous and
effective filtering of dust.
If the passenger compartment fi lter becomes
clogged, this may reduce the performance of the air
conditioning system and generate unpleasant odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. By means of
its second special active filter, it contributes
to the purification of the air breathed by
the occupants and the cleanness of the
passenger compartment (reduction of
allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
Refer to the servicing and warranty booklet to fi nd
out the replacement interval for these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle
(urban driving...), change them twice as
often if necessary.

Particle emission filter (Diesel)

This filter actively contributes
to the preservation of air quality
by trapping unburnt polluting
particles. It is controlled
completely and automatically by the engine
management system.
This warning lamp comes on if there is a risk
of blockage of the filter.
This alert signals the start of saturation of
the particle emissions filter (exceptionally
prolonged driving in urban conditions:
reduced speed, traffic jams…).
If this alert persists, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
On acceleration after the vehicle has been
running for a prolonged period at very low
speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional
circumstances, notice the emission of water
vapour at the exhaust. This water vapour
does not have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.
To regenerate the filter, it is recommended
that as soon as driving conditions permit,
you drive at a speed of at least 36 mph
(60 km/h) for at least 5 minutes (until the
warning lamp goes off and/or the message
disappears). Refer to "Under the bonnet" in section 6.

BATTERY

This is housed in a compartment located
underneath the fl oor, in front of the front right seat.
Before disconnecting the battery, you must
wait for 2 minutes after switching off the
ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Never charge a battery without first
disconnecting the terminals.
After every reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. If some problems
persist after this operation, please contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery
if the vehicle is not to be used for a
period of more than one month.
To charge the battery using a battery
charger
- Disconnect the battery,
- Follow the instructions for use given by
the battery charger manufacturer,

- Reconnect starting with the negative (-) terminal,

- Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are covered with
sulphate (white or greenish deposit),
disconnect them and clean them.
To start the vehicle from another
battery
- Connect the red cable to the positive (+)
terminals of the two batteries,

- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) terminal of the
slave battery,
- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an earth point on the
broken down vehicle as far as possible
from the battery,
- Operate the starter, let the engine run,
- Wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.

The presence of this label indicates
the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery
with special technology and specification,
for which the involvement of a PEUGEOT
dealer or qualified workshop is required
when replacing or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation may
cause premature ageing of the battery.

ECONOMY MODE

After the engine has stopped, with the key
in the ignition position, certain functions
(windscreen wiper, electric windows, courtesy
lamps, audio equipment, etc.) can only
be used for a cumulative duration of thirty
minutes, to prevent discharging of the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the active
functions are put on standby and the battery
warning lamp flashes accompanied by a
message in the screen.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it run
for a few minutes.
The time available will then be double the
time for which the engine was left running.
However, this time will always be between
five and thirty minutes.
A flat battery will prevent the engine from
starting.

Changing a fuse

CHANGING A FUSE

The three fuseboxes are placed:
-
in the dashboard on the right-hand side (behind
the storage compartments, retractable),
- in the passenger compartment (battery
compartment),

- under the bonnet.
If fi tted on your vehicle, a further fusebox
is added for towing, the towbar and the
connections for the coachbuilder and platform
cab conversions. It is located on the right
behind the load retaining partition.
Removing and fitting a fuse

Before changing a fuse, the cause of the
fault must be found and rectified. Always replace a failed fuse with a fuse
of the same rating.

PEUGEOT will not accept responsibility
for the cost incurred in repairing your
vehicle or for rectifying the malfunctions
resulting from the installation of accessories
not supplied and not recommended by
PEUGEOT and not installed in accordance
with its instructions, in particular when
the combined consumption of all of the
additional equipment connected exceeds
10 milliamperes.
The descriptions communicated are only the
fuses which can be changed by the user.
For any other operations, go to a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
For motor trade use: for complete
fuse and relay information, consult the
"Repair procedure" wiring diagrams via the
dealer network.
