Maintenance
Before working under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start
system to avoid any risk of injury
resulting from automatic operation of
START
mode.
This system requires a specific
battery with a special specification
and technology (reference numbers
available from a P
eugeo T dealer or a
qualified workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by
P
eugeo T
introduces the risk of
malfunction of the system.
The Stop & Start system makes
use of advanced technology. All
work on this type of battery must
be done only by a P
eugeo T dealer or
a qualified workshop.

If the temperature is high
enough, the warning lamp
comes on for less than
one
second, you can start
without waiting.
In cold weather, wait for this warning
lamp to go off then operate the starter

Minimise engine and gearbox wear
When switching off the ignition, let the
engine run for a few seconds to allow
the turbocharger (Diesel engine) to
return to idle.
Do not press the accelerator when
switching off the ignition.
There is no need to engage a gear
after parking the vehicle.

HILL StAR t ASSIS t
This system (also called HHC - Hill
Holder Control), linked to the dynamic
stability control system, makes hill
starts easier and is activated in the
following conditions:
-
the vehicle must be stationary
,
engine running, foot on the brake,
-
the gradient of the road must be
steeper than 5%,
-
uphill, the gearbox must be in
neutral or in a gear other than
reverse,
-
downhill, reverse gear must be
engaged.
The Hill Start
Assist system is a driving
aid. It is not an automatic vehicle
parking function or an automatic
parking brake.
operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal
pressed, from the time you release
the brake pedal, without using the
parking brake, you have approximately
2
seconds to move off before the
vehicle starts to roll back.
During the moving off phase, the
function is deactivated automatically,
gradually releasing the braking
pressure. During this phase, the
characteristic noise of mechanical
release of the brakes may be heard,
indicating the imminent movement of
the vehicle.
operating fault
Hill start assist is deactivated in the
following situations:
-
when the clutch pedal is released,
-
when the parking brake is applied,
-
when the engine is switched of
f,
-
when the engine stalls.
If a malfunction of the
system occurs, this
warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible
signal and confirmed by
a message in the screen. Have the
system checked by at a P
eugeo T
dealer or a qualified workshop.

observe the driving regulations at all
times and remain vigilant whatever the
traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and
keep your hands on the wheel so that
you are ready to react at any time to
any eventuality
.
o
n a long journey, a break every
two
hours is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly,
anticipate the need to brake and
increase the distance from other
vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving
on flooded roads, as this could cause
serious damage to the engine or
gearbox, as well as to the electrical
systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive through
water:
-
check that the depth of water does
not exceed 15 cm, taking account
of waves that might be generated
by other users,
-
deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
drive as slowly as possible without
stallin
g. In all cases, do not
exceed 6 mph (10 km/h),
- do not stop and do not switch of f
the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon
as circumstances allow, make several
light brake applications to dry the brake
discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle,
contact a P
eugeo T dealer or a
qualified workshop. Never drive with the parking brake
applied - Risk of overheating and
damage to the braking system!
Do not park or run the engine when
stationary in areas where inflammable
substances and materials (dry grass,
dead leaves...) might come into contact
with the hot exhaust system - Risk of
fire!
Never leave a vehicle
unsupervised with the engine
running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running,
apply the parking brake and put the
gearbox into neutral or position N or P,
depending on the type of gearbox.

towing a trailerFor more information about
weights and towed loads, refer to
chapter 9, "W
eights" section.
toWIN g A t RAIL e R , A CARA VAN ...
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.

Checks
good practice
only use products recommended by
P eugeo T or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, P
eugeo T selects and offers
specific products.
Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
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.
If this warning lamp comes
on, bleed the filter. Otherwise
bleed regularly each time the
engine oil is changed.
HDi engines use advanced
technology
. All work requires
special training, so should be
entrusted to a P
eugeo
T dealer.
Depending on country of sale. To drain the water, unscrew the bleed
screw located on the filter.
o
perate until all of the water no longer
flows in the transparent pipe, then
tighten the bleed screw.

Without lifting (4 wheels on the
road)
You should always use a towing arm.
BeINg toWeD
This procedure involves the use of
the towing eye supplied with the tools
for changing a wheel.
From the front
- unclip the cover by pressing the
bottom part.
-
Fully screw in the removable towing
eye.
From the rear
- unclip the cover using a coin or the
flat part of the towing eye,
-
Fully screw in the removable towing
eye. When towing with the engine
switched of
f, there is no braking or
steering assistance.
Lifting (only 2 wheels on the
road)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle
using professional lifting equipment. Vehicles fitted with a manual
gearbox (Diesel version)
In the case of vehicles fitted with
a manual gearbox, the gear lever
must be in neutral, failure to observe
this special condition may result in
damage to transmission and braking
components and the absence of
braking assistance when the engine is
started again.
