AT A GLANCE
  Limit the causes of excess consumption 
  Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in 
the bottom 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 refit 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 filter, air 
filter, cabin filter...) and observe the schedule of operations in the 
warranty and maintenance record.    
  When refuelling, do not continue after the 3 
rd  cut-off of the nozzle 
to avoid any overflow.  
  At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 
1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel 
consumption settle down to a consistent average.

   Levels  and  checks   
       
The presence of this label, in particular with 
the Stop & Start system, indicates the use of 
a specifi c 12 V lead-acid battery with special 
technology and specifi cation. The involvement 
of a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop 
is essential when replacing or disconnecting 
the  battery.   These operations will keep your vehicle 
in good running order. Ask for advice 
from a PEUGEOT dealer or refer to the 
warranty and maintenance record included 
in the handbook pack. 
 CHECKS 
  Battery 
 At the start of winter, have your battery 
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified  workshop.  
  Bleeding  water  from the Diesel filter 
 If this warning lamp comes on, 
bleed the filter, or bleed regularly 
each time the engine oil is 
changed. 
 To drain the water out, unscrew the bleed 
screw or the water in Diesel sensor, located 
at the base of the filter. Leave open until 
all of the water has been drained out. Then 
tighten the bleed screw or the water sensor. 
  Air filter and passenger compartment filter 
 A clogged passenger compartment filter 
may reduce the performance of the 
air conditioning system and generate 
undesirable odours. The replacement 
intervals for these components are given in 
the warranty and maintenance record. 
 Depending on the environment (dusty 
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle 
(urban driving...), change them twice as 
often if necessary. 
 Refer to the "Checks - Under the 
bonnet"  section.  
 HDi engines use advanced technology. 
All work requires a special qualification 
which is guaranteed by a PEUGEOT dealer 
or a qualified workshop.

CHECKS
Levels and checks
  Manual  gearbox 
 Have the level checked in accordance with 
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.  
  Good  practice 
 To check the main levels and certain 
components, in accordance with the 
manufacturer's servicing schedule, refer to 
the pages of the warranty and maintenance 
record which correspond to your vehicle's 
engine. 
 Only use products recommended by 
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent quality 
and specification. 
 In order to optimise the operation of units as 
important as the braking system, PEUGEOT 
selects and offers specific products. 
  Oil  filter 
 Change the filter regularly, in accordance 
with the manufacturer's servicing schedule.  
  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. 
  Brake  disc/drum wear status 
 For any information relating to checking 
the brake disc/drum wear status, 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.  
 If this warning lamp comes on, 
have the brake pad wear checked 
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified  workshop.    In order to avoid damaging the 
electrical units, high pressure washing 
to clean the engine compartment is strictly 
prohibited. 
 After washing the vehicle dampness, or in 
winter, ice may form on the brake discs and 
pads: braking efficiency may be reduced. 
Make some light brake applications to dry 
and de-ice the brakes.   

 128
   Levels  and  checks   
  Operating  fault 
 If this alert persists, do not ignore the 
warning; it indicates that a fault has occurred 
in the exhaust / particle filter system. 
 Have the whole system checked by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.   
 If there is risk of blockage of the 
filter, this warning lamp comes on 
in the instrument panel. 
  Saturation  /  Regeneration    Because of the higher exhaust 
gas temperature resulting from the 
normal operation of the particle filter, it is 
recommended that you do not park the 
vehicle over inflammable materials (grass, 
dry leaves, pine needles, ...) so as to avoid 
any risk of fire.  
Particle filter system (Diesel) 
 An addition to the catalytic converter, this 
filter makes an active contribution to the 
preservation of air quality by the retaining 
of the unburnt pollutant particles. Black 
exhaust fumes are thus no longer emitted. 
  Operation 
 This filter, fitted to the exhaust system, 
accumulates particles of soot. The engine 
management unit controls the automatic 
periodic elimination of the soot particles 
(regeneration). 
 The regeneration procedure is invoked 
according to the quantity of particles 
accumulated and the driving conditions 
of the vehicle. During this phase, you 
may notice some unusual phenomena - 
increased idling speed, cooling fan running, 
increase in smoke and higher exhaust gas 
temperature - which does not affect the 
operation of the vehicle or the environment.     After prolonged idling or driving at very 
low speeds, you may occasionally 
notice water vapour being emitted from the 
exhaust when accelerating. This is of no 
consequence to the running of the vehicle or 
to the environment.    To regenerate the filter, it is advised to 
drive as soon as possible, when traffic 
conditions and the law permit, at a speed 
of at least 40 mph (around 60 km/h), with 
an engine speed above 2 000 rpm for about 
fifteen minutes (until the warning lamp and/
or the message disappears). 
 If possible, avoid switching off the engine 
before the end of regeneration of the 
filter; repeated interruptions could cause 
premature deterioration of the engine oil. It 
is not recommended to end regeneration of 
the filter with the vehicle stationary.  
 This alert tells you that the particle filter 
is starting to fill up (in conditions of urban 
driving of exceptionally long duration: low 
speeds, traffic jams etc.)

TECHNICAL DATA
Diesel engines
Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines 
  The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with biofuels which conform \
to current and future European standards (Diesel fuel which 
complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with s\
tandard EN 14214) available at the pumps (containing up to 5% 
Fatty Acid Methyl Ester). 
 The B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel engines; however, this use is subject to strict application of the special servicing con\
ditions 
given in the warranty and maintenance record. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. 
 The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pur\
e or diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the 
engine and fuel system).      ENGINES AND GEARBOXES
