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,
passenger

compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the warranty and maintenance record.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-of

f 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.

deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down,
stuck in snow, on soft ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate the
DSC and ASR, so that the wheels can turn freely and regain grip.
Reactivate the systems as soon as the level of grip permits.
F
Press this button.
The indicator lamp in the button comes on.
The DSC

and ASR systems no longer act on the operation of the engine
and on the brakes in the event of a involuntary change of trajectory.
This action also deactivates the automatic operation of hazard warning
lamps (except for the 1.6 THP 270 hp version).
Reactivation
The systems are reactivated automatically every time the ignition is
switched back on.
You can also reactivate them manually:
F

Press this button again.
This action also reactivates the automatic operation of hazard warning
lamps (except for the 1.6

THP 270 hp version).
Operating fault
d

SC/ASR
The DSC and ASR systems offer increased safety in normal
driving, but they should not encourage the driver to take extra
risks or drive at high speed.
It is in difficult driving conditions (rain, snow, ice) that the risk of
loss of grip increases. It is therefore important for your safety to
keep the DSC and

ASR systems activated in all conditions, and
particularly
in difficult conditions.
The correct operation of these systems depends on observation
of the manufacturer's recommendations regarding as much the
wheels (tyres and rims), braking and electronic components as the
assembly and repair procedures used by PEUGEOT dealers.
To
benefit in full from the effectiveness of the DSC and
ASR

systems

in wintry conditions, the vehicle must be fitted with four
snow tyres, allowing the the vehicle to retain neutral behaviour on
the road.Illumination of this warning lamp and the lamp in the
deactivation button, accompanied by an audible signal and a
message, indicate a fault with the system.
Contact
a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system
checked.
After an impact, have these systems checked by a PEUGEOT

dealer
or a qualified workshop.
