COMFORT
The condensation created by the
air conditioning results in a dis-
charge of water under the vehicle
which is perfectly normal.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR CONDITIONING
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the guidelines on opera-
tion and maintenance below:
 To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterio\
r air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the v\
ents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.
 Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used for regulation of the air conditioning system.
 Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 minutes, once or twic\
e a month to keep it in perfect working order.
 Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and have the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
 We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter. Thanks to its second special active fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation
of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanness of the passenger \
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy de-
posits).
 To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also \
advised to have it checked regularly, as recommended in the warranty and
maintenance record.
 If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
In the "cabriolet" confi guration, installing the windstop and using the
"AIRWAVE" systems improves comfort.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engine power and
therefore improvement of the towing capacity. If the interior temperature remains
very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable
time, fi rst ventilate the passenger
compartment for a few minutes.
Place the air fl ow control at a suf-
fi cient level to provide an adequate
renewal of air in the passenger com-
partment.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not pres-
ent any danger to the ozone layer.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is ru\
n-
ning. To maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment,
you can temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start system (see the corresp\
ond-
ing section).

Lost keys
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your
p ersonal identifi cation documents and if possible the key code label.
The PEUGEOT dealer will be able to look up the key code and the transpon-
der code required to order a new key. Do not throw the remote control
batteries away, they contain metals
which are harmful to the environ-
ment.
Take them to an approved collec-
tion point.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate \
it while it is in your
pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the vehicle, without\
you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range \
and out of sight of
your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would have
to be reinitialised.
No remote control can operate when the key is in the ignition switch, ev\
en when the ignition
is switched off, except for reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compart-
ment by the emergency services more diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution, never leave children alone in the vehicle, except for a
very short period.
In all cases, it is essential to remove the key from the ignition switch\
when
leaving the vehicle.
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifi cations to the electronic engine immobiliser system;
this could cause malfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer, to ensure that only your keys can be used to open and start the vehicl\
e.

The key cannot be removed from
the lock until the cap is put back on
the tank.
Opening the cap may trigger an
inrush of air. This vacuum, which
is completely normal, is caused by
the sealing of the fuel system.
FUEL TANK
To fi ll the tank safely:
 the engine must be switched off,
 open the fuel fi ller fl ap,
 insert the key in the cap, then turn it to the left,
When refuelling is complete:
 put the cap back in place,
 turn the key to the right, then re- move it from the cap,
 close the fi ller fl ap.  remove the cap and secure it on the hook, located on the inside of the
fl ap,
 fi ll the tank, but do not continue af-
ter the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle ;
this could cause malfunctions.
Capacity of the tank: approximately
60 litres.
Refuelling
A label affi xed to the inside of the fi ller
fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used according to your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be add-
ed in order to be registered by the fuel
gauge.
When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message
in the multifunction screen. When the lamp
fi rst comes on, there is approximately
6 litres of fuel remaining.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the ig-
nition is switched on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message. When driv-
ing, this audible signal and message are
repeated with increasing frequency, as the
fuel level drops towards "0" .
Operating fault
A malfunction of the fuel gauge is indi-
cated by the return to zero of the fuel
gauge needle.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop. With Stop & Start, never refuel with
the system in STOP mode; you
must switch off the ignition with the
key.
Low fuel level
You must refuel to avoid running out of
fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also
to the "Checks" section.

Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly com-
patible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % etha-
nol), conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for ve-
hicles marketed for the use of this type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of
the ethanol must comply with European
standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up
to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly com-
patible with biofuels which conform to
current and future European standards
(Diesel fuel which complies with stan-
dard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which
complies with standard EN 14214)
available at the pumps (containing up
to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
MISFUEL PREVENTION (DIESEL) *
Mechanical device which prevents fi ll-
ing the tank of a Diesel vehicle with
petrol. It avoids the risk of engine dam-
age that can result from fi lling with the
wrong fuel.
Located in the fi ller neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the
fi ller cap is removed.
Operation
It remains possible to use a fuel
can to fi ll the tank.
In order to ensure a good fl ow of
fuel, do not place the nozzle of the
fuel can in direct contact with the
fl ap of the misfuel prevention de-
vice and pour slowly.
When a petrol fi ller nozzle is introduced
into the fuel fi ller neck of your Diesel
vehicle, it comes into contact with the
fl ap. The system remains closed and
prevents fi lling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel
type fi ller nozzle.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may
be different in other countries, the
presence of the misfuel prevention
device may make refuelling impos-
sible.
Before travelling abroad, we rec-
ommend that you check with the
PEUGEOT dealer network, whether
your vehicle is suitable for the fuel
pumps in the country in which you
want to travel.
The B30 biofuel can be used in cer-
tain Diesel engines; however, this use
is subject to strict application of the
special servicing conditions. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or dilut-
ed, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
system).
* According to country of sale.

SAFETY
The ASR/DSC systems offer ex-
ceptional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommen-
dations on:
- wheels (tyres and rims),
- braking components,
- electronic components,
- repair and assembly proce-dures.
After an impact, have these sys-
tems checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be ad-
visable to deactivate the ASR and DSC
systems, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
 Press this button, located in the mid- dle of the dashboard.
Illumination of the indicator lamp in the
button indicates that the ASR and DSC
systems are deactivated.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automat-
ically each time the ignition is switched
back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
 Press this button again to reactivate them manually. Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, this indicates a mal-
function of these systems.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL SYSTEMS
Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and
dynamic stability control (DSC)
They come into operation in the event
of a grip or trajectory problem.
This is indicated by fl ashing of
this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.
The anti-slip regulation (also known as
traction control) optimises traction to
prevent skidding of the wheels, by act-
ing on the brakes of the driving wheels
and on the engine.
The electronic stability control acts on
the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to keep the vehicle on the
trajectory required by the driver, within
the limits of the laws of physics.

Fastening
 Remove the strap from the guide A
before use.
 Pull the strap, then insert the tongue in the buckle.
 Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly by pulling the strap. Seat belt unfastened warning lamps
display
When the ignition is switched on, with
the engine running or the vehicle mov-
ing at a speed below approximately
12 mph (20 km/h), the corresponding
warning lamps
4 and 5 come on in red
for approximately 30 seconds, if the
seat belt is not fastened.
When the vehicle is moving at a speed
of more than approximately 12 mph
(20 km/h), the corresponding warn-
ing lamp 4 or 5 comes on in red, ac-
companied by an audible signal and a
message on the multifunction screen, if
a rear passenger has unfastened their
seat belt.
Unfastening
 Press the red button on the buckle.
 Guide the seat belt as it reels in.
Seat belt unfastened warning
This warning lamp comes on in the seat
belt and passenger's front airbag warn-
ing lamps display, when one or more
rear passengers unfasten their seat
belt.
In the "cabriolet" confi guration, if
the rear seats are not occupied,
slide the straps in the guides A to
prevent fl uttering of the rear seat
belts (leather seats only). From approximately 12 mph
(20 km/h), this warning lamp
fl ashes for two minutes ac-
companied by an audible sig-
nal of increasing volume. Once these
two minutes have elapsed, this warning
lamp remains on until the one or more
rear passengers fasten their seat belt.

 Select position M for sequential
changing of the six gears.
 Push the lever towards the + sign to
change up a gear.
 Pull the lever towards the - sign to
change down a gear.
It is only possible to change from one
gear to another if the vehicle speed and
engine speed permit; otherwise, the
gearbox will operate temporarily in au-
tomatic mode.
M and the gears engaged
manually appear in succes-
sion in the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too
high, the gear selected fl ashes for a few
seconds, then the actual gear engaged
is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M (manual) at
any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or mov-
ing very slowly, the gearbox selects
gear M1 automatically.
The sport and snow programmes do not
operate in manual mode. Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a
gear is not engaged correctly
(selector between two posi-
tions).
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you
can engage position P or N to place the
gearbox in neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake
to immobilise the vehicle.
Operating fault
There is a risk of damage to the
gearbox:
- if you press the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time,
- if you force the lever from posi- tion P to another position when
the battery is fl at.
To reduce fuel consumption during
a long period stationary with the
engine running (traffi c jam, etc.),
place the gear lever in position N
and apply the parking brake.
If the lever is not in position
P ,
when the driver's door is opened
or approximately 45 seconds after
the ignition is switched off, there is
an audible signal is heard accom-
panied by a message.
 Return the lever to position P ;
the audible signal stops and the
message disappears. When the ignition is on, the il-
lumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, indicates a gearbox malfunction.
In this case, the gearbox switches
to emergency mode and is locked in
3rd gear. You may feel a substantial
knock when changing from P to R and
from N to R . This will not cause any
damage to the gearbox.
Do not exceed a speed of 60 mph
(100 km/h), local speed restrictions per-
mitting.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
This warning lamp may also come on if
a door is opened.
