Hill start assist
This system keeps your vehicle briefly
stationary (for approximately 2 seconds) when
making a hill start, while you transfer your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
This system (also called HHC – Hill Hold
Control), integrated with the dynamic stability
control system, is activated in the following
conditions:
-
t
he vehicle must be stationary, engine
running, foot on the brake,
-
t
he gradient of the road must be steeper
than 5%,
-
u
phill, the gearbox must be in neutral or in a
gear other than reverse,
-
do
wnhill, 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,
it is possible to perceive the typical noise
of mechanical brake release signalling the
imminent movement of the vehicle. Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held in the hill start assist phase.
If you need to get out of the vehicle with
the engine running, apply the parking
brake manually then ensure that the
parking brake warning lamp is on.
Hill start assist is deactivated in the following
situations:
-
w
hen the clutch pedal is released,
-
w
hen the parking brake is applied,
-
w
hen the engine is switched off,
-
i
f the engine stalls.
Operating fault
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 it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or by a qualified
workshop.

Reinitialisation is confirmed by a high-pitched
audible signal.
A low-pitched audible signal indicates that
the reinitialisation operation has not been
successful.
The new pressure parameters saved are
treated as reference values by the system.The under-inflation alert can only be relied
on if the reinitialisation of the system has
been done with the pressures in the four
tyres correctly adjusted.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Operating fault
After doing anything to the system, the
pressures of the four tyres must be
checked and the system reinitialised.
The flashing and then constant illumination of
the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied
by illumination of the Ser vice warning lamp
indicates a fault in the system.
In this case, under-inflation monitoring of the
tyres is no longer provided.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
"LIMIT" speed limiter
System preventing the vehicle
from exceeding the speed setting
programmed by the driver. 1.
Speed limiter mode Selection/Off.
2. Decreases the set value.
3. Increases the set value.
4. Speed limiter On/Pause.
The speed setting is selected with the engine
running, regardless of being stationary or
in motion. The minimum speed that can be
programmed is at least 19 mph (30 km/h).
The vehicle responds to the driver's foot
pressure on the accelerator until resistance is
felt in the pedal, which signifies that the vehicle
has reached the programmed speed.
However, pressing the pedal beyond this point
of resistance to the floor permits exceeding
of the programmed speed. To resume use of
the limiter, simply reduce the pressure on the
accelerator pedal gradually and return to a
speed below the programmed speed.
Setting and operation of the system can be
done with the engine running, regardless of
being stationary or in motion.

Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle's
engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
For any additional information, contact a dealer.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.The snow chains must be fitted only to the
driving wheels. They must never be fitted
to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in
your country on the use of snow chains
and the maximum authorised speed.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size
195/65 R15
9
mm
19 5/ 70 R15
205/65 R15 215/5 5 R16215 / 5 0 R17
For more information on snow chains, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fixtures is in contact with the
wheel rim.

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. If you have to remove/refit the engine
cover, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the fixing clips.
Used products
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 and dispose of it in
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Oil level
It is recommended that you check the oil every
3,000
miles (5,000 km) and that you top it up
between two oil changes, if necessary.
Check the level with the vehicle level, engine
cold, using the dipstick.

If this mark is not reached, top up the level
through the oil filler cap, using the type of oil
approved for your engine.
Never allow the level to fall below this mark.
To maintain the reliability of engines and
emission control systems, the use of additives
in engine oil is prohibited.

This must be done at the inter vals specified in
the manufacturer's servicing schedule. Ask for
advice from a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil grade
In all cases, the chosen oil must meet
the requirements in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Brake fluid level
Coolant levelWhen the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the electric fan. This
may operate with the ignition off; furthermore,
because the cooling system is under pressure,
wait for at least one hour after the engine has
stopped before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by a quarter of a turn to allow the pressure to
drop. Once the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap and top up the level with the coolant.
If coolant has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
To p p i n g u p
Oil change
The brake fluid must be changed at the
inter vals prescribed according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use brake fluid recommended by the
manufacturer, meeting the DOT4 standards.
The level must be between the MIN and MA X
marks on the reservoir.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this indicates
a malfunction which must be checked by a

this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
Capacity of the screenwash reser voir:
approximately 3
litres.
Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle filter)
A low additive level is indicated by
illumination of the Ser vice warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message on the screen.
If the message is still displayed and the Ser vice
warning lamp remains lit, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

This additive must be topped up without delay
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Checks
Battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release
terminals) and that the connections
are clean.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12
V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by 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/drum wear
For information on checking
brake disc/drum 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.
This system must be checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Once the engine is started, this signals that
the particle filter is starting to saturate (in
conditions of urban driving of exceptionally long
duration: low speeds, traffic jams, etc.).
To regenerate the filter, you are advised to
drive as soon as possible, as traffic conditions
allow, at a speed of at least 37
mph (around
60
km/h) for at least five minutes (until the
Ser vice warning lamp goes off and the
message disappears).
Relay noises may be heard under the
dashboard during regeneration of the particle
f i l t e r. At the start of winter, have your battery checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
