Driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations 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.
On 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.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake
applied - Risk of overheating and damage
to the braking system!
Risk of fire!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes after
switching off the engine, do not park or run
the engine over areas where inflammable
substances and materials are present:
grass, leaves, etc.
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.
If you are obliged to drive through water:
-

c

heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves
that might be generated by other users,
-

d

eactivate the Stop & Start system,
-

d

rive as slowly as possible without stalling.
Under no circumstances exceed 10 km/h,
-

d

o not stop and do not switch off 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 PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
Checking this system must be done by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units
as important as those in the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and offers very
specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
