WELCOME
 The new Expert has been designed to satisfy all your 
requirements in terms of practicality, comfort, safety and 
aesthetics. In order to get the most out of your vehicle, we 
suggest that you take a tour, from the cab to the load space, 
with the "Handbook" in front of you. 
 The handbook presents the operation of the equipment 
available on board in detail. 
 PEUGEOT thanks you for your confidence and wishes you 
very happy motoring. 
 Your vehicle is fitted with only some of the equipment described 
in this document, depending on its trim level, version and the 
specification for the country in which it was sold.   Please note the following point: the fitting of electrical equipment 
or accessories which are not recommended by PEUGEOT 
may result in a failure of your vehicle's electronic system. 
Please note this specific warning. It is advisable to contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer to be shown the recommended equipment and 
accessories.

  For any work on your vehicle, use a qualified workshop that has 
the technical information, competence and equipment required,
