Deactivation indicator lamps
If one of the following indicator lamps comes on, this confirms that the corresponding system has been switched off intentionally.
This is may be accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the multifunction screen.Warning lamp is onCause Action / Observations
Passenger's
airbag system fixed.
The control, located in the glove box,
is set to the OFF position.
The passenger's front airbag is
deactivated.
You can install a "rear ward facing"
child seat, unless there is a fault with
the operation of the airbags (Airbag
warning lamp on). Set the control to the ON
position to activate the
passenger's front airbag.
In this case, do not fit a child seat in the rear ward
facing position.
Warning lamps
When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, the illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires action
on the part of the driver.
Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated further by reading the associated message in the multifunction screen.
If you encounter any problems, do not hesitate to contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Warning lamp is onCause Action / Observations
STOP fixed, alone or
associated with
another warning lamp,
accompanied by an
audible signal and a
message in the screen. Illumination of this warning lamp is
associated with a serious fault with
the braking system, power steering,
engine lubrication system or cooling
system.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so as there is a risk
that the engine will cut out while driving.
Park, switch off the ignition and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

in the red zone. When it first comes on there remains
approximately 6 litres of fuel in the
tank.
At this point, you begin to use the fuel
reserve. Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of
fuel.
This warning lamp will come on every time the ignition
is switched on, until a sufficient addition of fuel is
made.
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 60 litres

Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel, as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.

become caught by the fan blades.
Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is
recommended that exposure to water
(rain, washing, ...) be limited.

Checking levels
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles so equipped, or
using the dipstick.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two services (or oil changes). PEUGEOT
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms). Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start at
any time (even with the ignition off).
If you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not star t the engine.

Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle filter)
Used products
To p p i n g u p
This additive must be topped up by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.A low additive level is indicated by
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message in the instrument panel screen.Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up with or
replaced with plain water. In the case of vehicles fitted with
headlamp washers, the low fluid level
is indicated by an audible signal and
a message in the instrument panel
screen.
Top up the reservoir when you next stop the
vehicle.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop (France) or to an
authorised waste disposal site.
The cooling fan may star t after switching
off the engine: take care with ar ticles and
clothing that might become caught by the
fan blades.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be close
to the "MA X" mark but should never
exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is regulated by
the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised,
wait at least one hour after switching off the
engine before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level. In wintry conditions, the use of an
ethyl alcohol or methanol base fluid is
recommended.

Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F

T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of engine
braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
