Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,
as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
…). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and the roof rack after use.
At the end of winter, remove winter tyres and
refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold,
referring to the label in the door aperture,
driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-

b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment
filter…) and obser ve the schedule of
operations recommended in the warranty and
maintenance record. Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.

Instruments

53
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal,
it indicates an electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD) system
malfunction that could cause control
of the vehicle to be lost during
braking.
Yo u must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
When operating under normal conditions,
the ABS may cause the brake pedal to
vibrate slightly.
In emergency braking, press the brake
pedal hard and maintain this pressure.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
and traction control (TRC)
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
every time the vehicle is started. Activation of these systems
is signalled by flashing of this
indicator in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal
for the DSC system.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (moving a vehicle that
i s bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose
soil, …), it may prove useful to deactivate the
DSC and TRC systems, so that the wheels can
move freely and regain grip.
It is recommended that the systems are
reactivated as soon as possible however.
F

P
ress the button briefly.
Deactivating TRC alone
This warning lamp comes on: the
TRC system no longer acts on the
operation of the engine. Deactivation of the TRC and DSC systems
F

W
ith the vehicle stopped
, press the button
for more than 3 seconds.
These warning lamps come on: the
TRC and DSC systems no longer act
on the operation of the engine.
Reactivation
The TRC and DSC systems reactivate
automatically each time the engine is started.
F

P
ress the button again to
reactivate them manually.
When only the TRC system has been
deactivated, it reactivates as soon as the speed
of the vehicle increases.
If the TRC and DSC systems have both
been deactivated, they do not reactivate by
themselves, even if the speed of the vehicle
increases.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal,
this indicates a fault with the system.
As soon as they detect a

problem of grip or
trajectory, these systems act on the operation
of the engine and brakes.

Take care when working under the bonnet,
as certain areas of the engine may be
extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even
with the ignition off).
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 in the containers reser ved for this
purpose.
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either
using the oil level indicator on the
instrument panel when the ignition is
switched on, for vehicles equipped
with an electric gauge, or using the
dipstick. To ensure that the reading is correct, your
vehicle must be parked on a
level sur face
with the engine stopped for more than
30

minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two ser vices (or oil changes). PEUGEOT
recommends that you check the level, and top
up, if necessary, every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
Checking using the dipstick
The location of the dipstick is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.

non-fluffy cloth.
F

R
efit the dipstick and push fully down, then
pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between marks A and B .A = MA X
B = MIN
If you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not star t the engine .
- I f the level is above the MAX mark (risk of
damage to the engine), contact a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
-

I
f the level is below the MIN mark, you must
top up the engine oil.
Oil grade
Before topping up the oil or changing the oil,
check that the oil is the correct grade for your
engine and conforms to the manufacturer's
recommendations.

fter checking the level, carefully refit the oil
filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
Engine oil change
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emissions control system, never use
additives in the engine oil.
Brake fluid level
The fluid level should be close to the
"MA X" mark. If it is not, check the
brake pad wear.
Access to the tank
F Unclip the plastic cover, located at the bottom of the windscreen, by pressing on
both tabs.
When you unclip the plastic cover, make
sure not to remove the seal.
Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Coolant level
The level of this fluid must be
between the marks " FULL" or "F"
and " LOW " or "L". The check and top up must only be done with
the engine cold.
A low coolant level presents a
risk of serious
damage to your engine.
When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying out any
work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
two turns to release the pressure. After it has
dropped, remove the cap and top up.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
Screenwash fluid level
Top up to the required level when
necessary.
Fluid specifications
These fluids must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.

replace it twice as often if
necessary .
Passenger compartment
filter
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving),
replace it twice as often if
necessary. A clogged passenger compartment
filter may have an adverse effect on
the per formance of the air conditioning
system and generate undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Clutch
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.
The clutch is mechanically operated and
requires regular adjustment.If there is a
malfunction (for example,
difficulty in pulling away), contact
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Fluid specification
The screenwash fluid must be topped up with
a ready for use mix.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid with
antifreeze must be used that is appropriate for
the prevailing conditions, in order to preser ve
the elements of the system (pump, tank, ducts,
e t c .) .
Filling with pure water is prohibited under all
circumstances (risk of freezing, limestone
deposits, etc.).
