Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specifi cations.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and of-
fers very specifi c products.
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compartment
is strictly prohibited .
After washing the vehicle, or in hu-
mid or wintry conditions, ice can
form on the brake discs and pads
with a resulting loss of effi ciency of
the brakes. Make a few light brake
applications to defrost and dry the
brakes.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for de-
tails of the checking intervals
for this component.
Brake disc and drum wear
For any information relating
to checking of the brake disc
and/or drum wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for details
of the level checking intervals
for this component.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the
style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It
may be necessary to have the
condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
Parking brake
If the parking brake travel is
too long or if you notice a loss
of effectiveness of this sys-
tem, the parking brake must
be adjusted, even between
two services.
This system must be checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.

TEMPORARY PUNCTURE
REPAIR KIT
Description of the kit
The speed limit sticker
I must be
affi xed to the vehicle's steering
wheel to remind you that a wheel is
in temporary use.
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h) when driving with a tyre
repaired using this type of kit.
A. "Sealant" or "Air" position selector.
B. On "I" / off
"O" switch.
C. Defl ation button.
D. Pressure gauge (in bar and p.s.i.).
E. Compartment housing: - a cable with adaptor for 12 V socket,
- various infl ation adaptors for ac-cessories, such as balls, bicycle
tyres... F.
Sealant cartridge.
G. White pipe with cap for repair.
H. Black pipe for infl ation.
I. Speed limit sticker.
Complete system consisting of a com-
pressor and a sealant cartridge which
permits
temporary repair of a tyre so
that you can drive to the nearest ga-
rage.
It is designed to repair most punctures
which could affect the tyre, located on
the tyre tread or shoulder.
The vehicle's electric system allows
the connection of a compressor for
long enough to infl ate a tyre after
a puncture repair or for infl ating a
small infl atable accessory.

Avoid removing any foreign bodies
which have penetrated into the tyre. 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.
Repair procedure
1. Sealing
 Switch off the ignition.
 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.
 Start the vehicle and leave the engine running.
Do not start the compressor be-
fore connecting the white pipe to
the tyre valve: the sealant product
would be expelled through the pipe.
 Turn the selector
A to the
"sealant" position.
 Check that the switch B is in
position "O" .

If after around 5 to 7 minutes the
pressure is not attained, this indi-
cates that the tyre is not repairable;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop for assistance.
 Switch on the compressor by mov-
ing the switch B to position "I" until
the tyre pressure reaches 2.0 bars.
The sealant is injected into the tyre under pressure; do not disconnect
the pipe from the valve during this
operation (risk of splashing).  Remove the kit and screw the cap
back on the white pipe.
Take care to avoid staining your ve- hicle with traces of fl uid. Keep the kit
to hand.

Drive immediately for approximately
three miles (fi ve kilometres), at reduced
speed (between 15 and 35 mph (20 and
60 km/h)), to plug the puncture.
 Stop to check the repair and the tyre pressure using the kit.

As soon as possible, go to a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed

"air" position.
 Uncoil the black pipe H fully.
 Connect the black pipe to the valve of the wheel.  Connect the compressor's electric
plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket.
 Start the vehicle again and leave the engine running.  Adjust the pressure using the com-
pressor (to infl ate: switch B in po-
sition "I" ; to defl ate: switch B in
position "O" and press button C ),
in accordance with the vehicle's tyre
pressure label (located on the left
