 EMISSIONS  CONTROLS 
 EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis) is 
a diagnostics system which complies with, 
among others, the standards concerning 
authorised emissions of: 
   -   CO  (carbon  monoxide), 
  -   HC  (unburnt  hydrocarbons), 
  -   NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles, detected by oxygen sensors placed 
upstream and downstream of the 
catalytic  converters.  
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION  
  System which automatically checks the 
pressures of the tyres while driving. 
  The tyre under-inflation detection 
system is an aid to driving which does 
not replace the need for the driver to be 
vigilant or to drive responsibly.     This system does not avoid the need 
to check the tyre pressures regularly 
(including the spare wheel) and before a 
long journey. 
 Driving with under-inflated tyres adversely 
affects road holding, extends braking 
distances and causes premature tyre 
wear, particularly under arduous conditions 
(vehicle loaded, high speed, long journey).  
  Driving with under-inflated tyres 
increases fuel consumption.  
 The system continuously monitors the 
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the 
vehicle is moving. 
 A pressure sensor is located in the valve of 
each tyre (except the spare wheel). 
 The system triggers an alert if a drop in 
pressure is detected in one or more tyres.     The tyre pressures must be checked 
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped 
for 1 hour or after driving for less then 
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed). 
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values 
indicated on the label. 
 The tyre pressures for your vehicle can be 
found on the tyre pressure label. 
 The driver is warned of any 
malfunction of this emission 
control system by the illumination 
of this specific warning lamp in 
the instrument panel. 
 There is a risk of damage to the catalytic 
converter. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop. 
 Refer to the "Technical data - 
Identification markings" section.

   Instruments  and  controls   
  Under-inflation  alert 
  The alert is given by the fi xed 
illumination of this warning lamp, 
accompanied by an audible signal, 
and depending on equipment, the 
display of a message.  
  In the event of a problem on one of the 
tyres, the symbol or the message appears, 
according to equipment, to identify it. 
   -   Reduce  speed,  avoid  sudden  steering 
movements or harsh brake applications. 
  -   Stop as soon as it is safe to do so. 
  -   In the event of a puncture, use the  temporary puncture repair kit or the 
spare wheel (according to equipment),  
 or 
  -   if you have a compressor, the one in  the temporary puncture repair kit for 
example, check the four tyre pressures 
when  cold,  
 or 
  -   if it is not possible to check the tyre  pressures at the time, drive carefully at 
reduced  speed.      The loss of pressure detected does not 
always lead to visible deformation of 
the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.  
   The alert is maintained until the tyre or 
tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired 
or replaced. 
 The spare wheel (space-saver type or a 
steel rim) does not have a sensor.   
  Operating  fault 
  The flashing and then fixed 
illumination of this warning lamp 
accompanied by the illumination 
of the service warning lamp, and 
depending on equipment, the display of a 
message indicates a fault with the system. 
 In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures 
is not assured.  
  This alert is also displayed when one or 
more wheels is not fitted with a sensor 
(for example, a space-saver or steel spare 
wheel).  
  Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked or, 
following the repair of a puncture, to have 
the original wheel, equipped with a sensor, 
refitted.

   Puncture   
  Removing the wheel to be repaired 
   -   Remove the trim using the screwdriver  F  
as a lever. 
  -   Release the bolts using the wheelbrace   E . 
  -   Position  the  jack   C   at one of the four 
locations provided on the underbody 
near the wheels.  
  Spare  wheel 
  The spare wheel retaining bolt is located 
below the bumper on the right. 
   -   Turn the bolt using the long socket   A  
and the ratchet wrench   B  to release the 
wheel. 
  -   Turn to the locking point, indicated by  an increase in the force required for the 
manoeuvre.    -   Take out the spare wheel using the 
wrench. 
  -   Unscrew  the  handle   G   and remove the 
support   H . 
  -   Release the spare wheel and place it  near the wheel to be changed.

 TOWING 
  Towing  the  vehicle 
 The removable towing eye is located in the 
tool box under the front passenger seat. 
 Unclip the cover using a flat tool. 
 Screw the removable towing eye in fully. 
 Attach the approved towing bar to to the 
removable towing eye. 
 Place the gear lever in neutral. 
  Towing  another vehicle 
 The fixed towing eye is located on the right 
below the bumper. 
 Attach the approved towing bar onto the 
fixed  eye.  
  Failure to observe this requirement 
may result in damage to certain braking 
components and the lack of some braking 
assistance systems when the engine is re-
started.   
  General  recommendations 
 Observe the legislation in force in your 
country. 
 Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle 
is higher than that of the towed vehicle. 
 The driver must remain at the wheel of the 
towed vehicle and must have a valid driving 
licence. 
 When towing a vehicle with all four wheels 
on the ground, always use an approved 
towing bar; rope and straps are prohibited. 
 The towing vehicle must move off gently. 
 When towing a vehicle with the engine off, 
there is no longer any power assistance for 
braking or steering. 
 In the following cases, you must always call 
on a professional recovery service: 
   -   vehicle broken down on a motorway or  fast road, 
  -   four-wheel  drive  vehicle, 
  -   when it is not possible to put the  gearbox into neutral, unlock the 
steering, or release the parking brake, 
  -   towing with only two wheels on the  ground, 
  -   where there is no approved towing bar  available...
