Anti-lock braking system
(ABS/EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake force
distribution) systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking,
in particular on poor or slippery sur faces.
The ABS prevents the wheels from locking,
and the EBFD provides control of the braking
pressure wheel by wheel.
The anti-lock braking system comes into
operation automatically when there is a risk
of wheel lock. It does not reduce the braking
distance.
On very slippery sur faces (ice, oil, etc.), the
ABS may increase the braking distance. When
braking in an emergency, do not hesitate to
press the brake pedal firmly without releasing
the pressure, even on a slippery sur face; you
will then be able to continue to manoeuvre the
vehicle to avoid an obstacle.If this warning lamp comes on
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen, it
indicates a malfunction of the ABS
which could result in a loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.
If this warning lamp comes on
together with the brake and STOP
warning lamps, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the electronic brake force distribution,
which could result in a loss of control
of the vehicle when braking.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Emergency braking
assistance (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed.
This alters the resistance of the brake pedal
under your foot.To maintain operation of the emergency
braking assistance system, press very
firmly on the brake pedal, maintaining this
pressure.
Normal operation of the ABS may be felt
by slight vibration of the brake pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved by
P E U G E O T.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
c ont rol (ESC)
These systems are associated with and
complementary to the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for maintaining
optimum traction and avoiding loss of control of
the vehicle during acceleration.
This system optimises traction to prevent the
wheels from skidding by acting on the brakes
of the driving wheels and on the engine. It also
improves the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
With the ESC system, maintain the direction
without attempting to steer in the opposite
direction.

Safety
104
In some cases of particularly demanding use
(when towing the maximum load on a steep
gradient in high temperatures), the engine
power is automatically limited. In such a case,
the air conditioning is automatically switched
off to increase the available engine power.F
I
f this warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
New vehicle
Do not pull a trailer before having driven at
least 620
miles (1,000 kilometres).
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes, 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.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height
of your vehicle. For more information on adjusting
the Headlamp beam
, refer to the
corresponding section.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal if a genuine PEUGEOT
towbar is used.
Starting and stopping
Running and accessories position.
To unlock the steering, turn the steering wheel
gently while turning the key, without forcing. In
this position, certain accessories can be used. Starting position.
The starter is operated. the engine turns over,
release the key.
STOP position
: anti-theft.
The ignition is off. Turn the steering wheel until
the steering column locks. Remove the key.
If this warning lamp comes on, a door
or the bonnet is not closed correctly.
Please check!Diesel engines
If the temperature is high enough,
the warning lamp comes on for
less than a second, you can start
without waiting.
In cold weather, wait for this warning lamp to go
off then operate the starter (starting position)
until the engine starts.
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.

Operation
When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the vehicle ahead too quickly, the
system automatically applies the brakes to
avoid a collision.
You are then warned by the display of a
message.
Your vehicle's brake lamps come on to warn
other road users.The collision can be avoided if the speed
difference between your vehicle and
the one ahead is not more than 9
mph
(15
km/h).
Above this threshold, the system will do
what is possible to avoid or reduce the
accident by lowering the speed of impact.
The automatic braking can bring the vehicle to
a complete stop if the situation requires it.
In this case, the vehicle is held stationary
temporarily (for about 1.5
seconds) to allow
the driver to take back control by pressing the
brake pedal.
Unless the driver presses the clutch
quickly enough during automatic braking,
triggering of the system may cause the
engine to stall. During automatic braking, the driver can
always obtain a higher rate of deceleration
than that controlled by the system, by
pressing firmly on the brake pedal.
After an impact, the system is
automatically put out of ser vice: it no
longer operates.
You must go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the system
made operational again.
Operating limits
The system only detects vehicles that are
stationary or moving in the same direction as
your vehicle.
It does not detect small vehicles (bicycles,
motorcycles), pedestrians or animals, nor
non-reflective stationary objects.
This system will not trigger or will be interrupted
if the driver:
-
a
ccelerates hard
-
o
r turns the steering wheel sharply
(avoidance manoeuvre). When weather conditions are difficult
(extremely heavy rain, snow, fog, hail,
etc.), braking distances increase, which
may reduce the system’s ability to avoid a
collision.
The driver must therefore remain
particularly cautious.
Never let snow build up on the bonnet
or any object beyond the bonnet or the
front of the roof: this could enter the
field of vision of the sensor and obstruct
detection.Deactivation
The system is deactivated in the vehicle
configuration menu, accessible with the ignition
on.
Its status is stored when the ignition is switched off.
When the system is deactivated, a
message is displayed every time the
ignition is switched on, to warn you.

Screenwash fluid level
For optimal cleaning quality and safety, we
recommend that you use the PEUGEOT range
of products.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
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.
To p p i n g u p
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.

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines)
SCR system
Using a fluid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85%
of nitrogen oxide (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment. The AdBlue
® is contained in a special tank with
a capacity of around 17 litres. An alert system
is triggered automatically once the reser ve
level is reached: you can then drive for a further
1,500
miles (2,400 km) before the tank is
emptied completely.
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the per formance or fuel
consumption of its Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel particle filter
(DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases. Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a system
r
equired by regulations prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR
system is faulty, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no longer
meet the Euro 6 standard: your vehicle
becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault with the
SCR system, you must go to a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop as soon
as possible: after a running distance of
685
miles (1,100
km), a system will be
triggered automatically to prevent engine
starting.
In either case, a range indicator gives you
the distance you can travel before the
vehicle is immobilised.
For more information on the Warning
and indicator lamps and the associated
alerts, refer to the corresponding section.
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.
