Associated systems which contribute to the directional stability of the vehicle within the limits of the laws of physics:
- t raction control (tC L),
-

a
ctive stability control (ASC).
Traction control and active stability control
traction control optimises traction to prevent
wheel spin, by acting on the brakes of the
driving wheels and on the engine.
Active stability control acts on the brake of one
or more wheels and on the engine to keep the
vehicle on the trajectory required by the driver.Activation
these systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
th

e illumination of this warning lamp
in the instrument panel indicates
that the ASC and
t
C
L systems are
deactivated.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, ...), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASC system, so that the wheels can move
freely and regain grip.
th

is is indicated by the flashing of
this symbol on the instrument panel
screen.
trajectory control systems
F Press this button, located to the left of the steering wheel, until the symbol appears in
the instrument panel screen.
Operation
they operate when the vehicle speed is higher
than 9 mph (15 km/h).
th

ey come into operation in the event of a grip
or trajectory problem.

RECOMMENDS
PEUGEOT & TOTAL,
A PARTNERSHIP TO DELIVER
BETTER PERFORMANCE!
2015 was marked by PEUGEOT's return to Rally-Raid,
one of the most difficult motorsport disciplines in the
world. To obtain the best performance in these trials,
PEUGEOT Sport chose TOTAL QUARTZ for the
PEUGEOT 2008 DKR, a lubricant of high technology
which protects the engine in the most severe
conditions.
TOTAL QUARTZ protects your engine against the
effects of time.
TOTAL QUARTZ Ineo First is a high performance lubricant,
the result of work done together by PEUGEOT and TOTAL
R&D. Specially formulated for the engines in PEUGEOT
vehicles, its innovative technology significantly reduces
CO
2 emissions and keeps your engine clean.

When the symbol begins to flash
rapidly (approximately twice per
second), there is not much fuel
remaining in your tank (approximately
5 li t r e s).
You must fill the tank to avoid running
out of fuel.
Fuel tank
Capacity of the tank: approximately 60 litres.
Low fuel level
Filling
A label, affixed on the inside of the flap,
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used
according to your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be added in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge.
Location of the cap
When the low fuel level is reached,
this indication appears in the
instrument panel screen. When it first
comes on, you have approximately
10 litres of fuel remaining.
th

e symbol flashes slowly (approximately
once per second).

Fuel used for petrol engines
the petrol engines are compatible with
bio-fuels that conform to current and future
eu
ropean standards and can be obtained from
filling stations:
Travelling abroad
Cer tain fuels could damage the engine of
your vehicle. In cer tain countries, the use of
a par ticular fuel may be required (specific
octane rating, specific sales name…) to
ensure correct operation of the engine.
For any additional information, contact your
dealer. -

use are those that meet the B715001
standard.
Fuel used for Diesel
engines
the Diesel engines are compatible with
biofuels that conform to current and future
eu

ropean standards and can be obtained from
filling stations:th e use of B20 or B30 fuel
meeting standard eN 16709
is possible in your Diesel

Advice on driving when towing
Distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches
the maximum permitted without exceeding
it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1
000 metres, the maximum towing load must
be reduced by 10
% of the gt
W a
nd so on for
every 1
000 metres of altitude.
For more information on Petrol weights or
Diesel weights and in particular the towed
loads which apply to your vehicle, refer to the
corresponding section.
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 l
ower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
th

e maximum towed load on a long slope
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
F

I
f this message is displayed, stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so .
Braking
towing a trailer increases the braking distance.to l
imit heat build-up in the brakes, use of the
engine brake is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the lighting and signalling on the trailer and the adjustment of the vehicle's
headlamps.
For more information on Headlamp
adjustment , refer to the corresponding
section.
If the message flashes slowly, wait for the
engine to cool before topping up the level, if
necessary.
If the message flashes rapidly, contact a
P
e

uge

dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
