 FUEL  GAUGE  COOLANT  TEMPERATURE 
  The needle is positioned before the 
red zone:  normal operation. 
 In arduous conditions of use or hot 
climatic conditions, the needle may 
move close to the red graduations.   What you should do if the needle 
enters the red zone:  
 Reduce your speed or let the engine 
run at idle. 
  What you should do if the warning 
lamp comes on:  
   -   stop  immediately,  switch  off  the 
ignition. The fan may continue to 
operate for a certain time, up to 
approximately 10 minutes, 
  -   wait for the engine to cool down in  order to check the coolant level and 
top it up if necessary.  
 As the cooling system is pressurised, 
follow this advice in order to avoid any 
risk of scalding: 
   -   wait at least one hour after  switching off the engine before 
carrying out any work, 
  -   unscrew the cap by 1/4 turn to  allow the pressure to drop, 
  -   when the pressure has dropped,  check the level on the expansion 
bottle, 
  -   if necessary, remove the cap to top up.  
 If the needle remains in the red 
zone, have the system checked by 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop. 
 Refer to the "Levels" section of 
chapter 6. 
 Refer to the "Fuel" section of 
chapter 6. 
 The fuel level is tested each time the 
key is turned to the "running" position. 
 The gauge is positioned on: 
   -    1:  the fuel tank is full, 
approximately 60 litres. 
  -    0:  the reserve is now being used,  the warning lamp comes on 
continuously. The reserve when 
the warning fi rst comes on is 
approximately 8 litres.

  Good  practice 
 For maximum cooling or heating of the 
passenger compartment, it is possible 
to exceed the value 15 by turning until 
LO is displayed or the value 27 by 
turning until HI is displayed. 
 On entering the vehicle, the inside 
temperature may be much colder (or 
warmer) than is comfortable. There is 
no advantage in changing the value 
displayed in order to quickly reach the 
level of comfort required. The system 
will use its maximum performance to 
reach the comfort value set.  
 DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING WITH SEPARATE SETTINGS  
  Automatic  operation 
  AUTO  comfort  programme 
 This is the normal air conditioning 
system operating mode.   Driver or passenger side comfort 
value 
 The value indicated in the screen 
corresponds to a level of comfort and 
not a temperature in degrees Celsius 
or Fahrenheit. 
 Turn this control to the left 
or to the right to decrease or 
increase the value. A setting 
around the value 21 provides 
optimum comfort. However, 
depending on your requirements, a 
setting between 18 and 24 is usual. 
 Do not cover the sunshine sensor 
located on the dashboard.   
 Press this button, the   AUTO  
symbol is displayed. 
 In accordance with the 
comfort value selected, 
the system controls the 
distribution, the fl ow and the intake 
of air to guarantee comfort and a 
suffi cient circulation of air in the 
passenger compartment. No further 
action on your part is required.   
When the engine is cold, to prevent an 
excessive diffusion of cold air, the air diffuser 
will reach its optimum level gradually. 
 For your comfort, the settings are stored 
when the ignition is switched off and are 
reinstated the next time the vehicle is 
started. 
 The automatic function will no longer be 
maintained if you change a setting manually 
(AUTO is cleared).  
FOR THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER

   Towing  a  trailer    For more information about 
weights, refer to the administrative 
documents (registration 
document, ...) or to the "Weights" 
section of chapter 8. 
 TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC... 
  Distribution of loads  
 Distribute the load in the trailer so 
that the heaviest objects are as 
close as possible to the axle and 
the nose weight is close to the 
maximum authorised without, however, 
exceeding it. 
  Cooling  
 Towing a trailer on a slope increases 
the coolant temperature.   As the fan is electrically controlled, its 
cooling capacity is not dependent on 
the engine speed. 
 You should therefore use a high gear 
to lower the engine speed and reduce 
your speed. 
 In all cases, pay attention to the 
coolant  temperature.  
  Driving  advice 
 A towed vehicle must free wheel: 
gearbox in neutral.

  Cooling  system 
 Only use the fl uid recommended by the 
manufacturer. 
 Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging 
your engine. 
 When the engine is warm, the 
temperature of the coolant is controlled 
by the engine fan. As this fan can 
operate with the ignition key removed 
and because the cooling system is 
pressurised, wait for at least one hour 
after the engine has stopped before 
carrying out any work. 
 Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to 
release the pressure to prevent any 
risk of scalding. When the pressure 
has dropped, remove the cap and top 
up the level with coolant. 
 If fl uid has to be added frequently, 
this indicates a fault which must be 
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer as 
soon as possible. 
  Power steering fluid level 
 The vehicle must be parked on level 
ground with the engine cold. Unscrew 
the cap integrated with the gauge and 
check the level which must be between 
the MIN and MAX marks.   In order to regenerate the fi lter, you 
are advised to drive at a speed higher 
than 40 mph (60 km/h) for at least fi ve 
minutes as soon as possible, when 
traffi c conditions permit (until the 
message disappears and the service 
warning lamp goes off). 
 During regeneration of the particle 
emission fi lter, the noise of a relay 
operating may be heard under the 
dashboard. 
 If the message is still displayed and 
if the service warning lamp remains 
on, consult a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualifi ed workshop. 
  Topping  up 
 The level must be between the MIN 
and MAX marks on the expansion 
bottle. If more than 1 litre of fl uid is 
required to top up the level, have 
the system checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.   
  Screenwash  and  headlamp 
wash level 
 For best quality cleaning and for your 
safety, we would advise that you use 
products of the PEUGEOT range. 
 For optimum cleaning and to avoid 
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped 
up or replaced with plain water. 
 Capacity of the screenwash reservoir: 
approximately 3 litres. 
 If your vehicle is fi tted with headlamp 
washers, the capacity of the reservoir 
is 6 litres.  
  Diesel  additive  level 
(Diesel with particle 
emission filter) 
  Topping  up 
 This additive must be topped up by 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop  without  delay.   
  Waste  products 
 Avoid prolonged contact of used oil 
with the skin. 
 Brake fl uid is harmful to health and 
very corrosive. 
 Do not dispose of used oil, brake fl uid 
or coolant into drains or into the ground 
but into the containers dedicated to this 
use at PEUGEOT dealer (France) or 
an authorised waste disposal site.  
 The minimum level of this additive 
is indicated by lighting of the service 
warning lamp, accompanied by an 
audible signal and a message in the 
screen. 
 When this occurs with the engine 
running it is due to the start of 
saturation of the particle emission fi lter 
(exceptionally prolonged urban type 
driving conditions: low speed, long 
traffi c jams, ...).

QUICK HELP

 REMOVABLE SNOW SCREEN 
 According to country, the removable 
snow screen is installed on the lower 
part of the front bumper to prevent the 
accumulation of snow at the radiator 
cooling fan. 
  FITTING 
  REMOVAL 
   -   Pass a screwdriver into the hole located near each of the clips. 
  -   Use the screwdriver as a lever to  unclip the four clips   B   in  turn.   
   -   Offer up the snow screen facing its 
centring pin   A  on the front bumper. 
  -   Put it in place by pressing at each  clip   B  located in the four corners.   
 Do not forget to remove the 
snow screen when the exterior 
temperature is higher than 10°C 
(no risk of snowfall) and when 
towing. 
  6.   REFITTING  THE  REPAIRED  WHEEL 
 The wheel is refi tted as described in 
step 5, not forgetting to refi t the wheel 
trim. 
 Refer to the "Identifi cation 
markings" section of chapter 8 to 
locate the tyre label. 
 Refer to the "Instruments and 
controls" section of chapter 2, 
"Tyre under-infl ation detection" 
part, for recommendations after 
changing a wheel fi tted with a tyre 
under-infl ation detection sensor. 
 The spare wheel is not designed 
to be used over long distances. 
Have the tightening of the bolts 
and the tyre pressure checked by 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop as soon as possible. Have 
the original wheel repaired and refi tted 
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed 
workshop as soon as possible.
