Adjusting the limit speed
(set ting)
Once the speed is programmed, you can
change it by pressing the control:
-

Energy economy mode
(Only for vehicles equipped with the Keyless
Entry and Starting system.)
System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conser ve a sufficient level
of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still
use functions such as the audio system,
windscreen wipers, dipped beam headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a
max. combined time
of 20


minutes.
This period may be greatly reduced if the
battery is not fully charged.
Entry into the mode
Once this time has elapsed, the active
functions are put on standby.
Exiting the mode
These functions will be automatically restored
the next time the vehicle is used.
To restore the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and allow it run
for at least 5
minutes. Let the engine run for the duration
specified to ensure that the battery charge
is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart
the engine in order to charge the battery.
A flat battery prevents the engine from
starting.
For more information on the 12
V batter y
,
refer to the corresponding section.
Fitting roof bars
Maximum authorised weight on the roof
bars, with a loading height not exceeding
40
cm (except bicycle carriers): 40 kg.
If the height exceeds 40
cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars.
Please refer to national legislation
to comply with the regulations for
transporting objects that are longer than
the vehicle.
Use the accessories recommended by
PEUGEOT to install transverse roof bars,
following the manufacturer's recommendations.
For more information, contact a

PEUGEOT
dealer or a

qualified workshop.
Bonnet
Opening
F Pull the interior release lever, located in the lower dashboard, towards you.
Practical information

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
e ffectiveness 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.
Wheels and tyres
The pressure must be checked on
all tyres, including the spare wheel,
when the tyres are "cold", at least
once a month and before a long
j o u r n ey. Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces
braking efficiency and control of the vehicle's
steering. Regular inspections of the condition
of tyres (tread and sides) and rims are
recommended as well as making sure that
valves are fitted.
Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres,
wheel rotation, ground clearance and the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
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.
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.
ETG gearbox
The ETG gearbox does not require
any maintenance (no oil change).
The pressures given on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10
minutes or more than 6 miles
(10
kilometres) at more than 31 mph (50 km/h),
0.3
bar (30 kPa) should be added to the values
given on the label.
Under-inflation increases fuel consumption.
Non-compliant tyre pressure causes premature
wear on tyres and has an adverse effect on the
vehicle's road holding – Risk of an accident!

Temporary puncture
repair kit
Scan the QR code on page 3 to view
e xplanatory videos.
Comprising a
compressor and a sealant
cartridge, it allows the temporary repair of
a

tyre so that you can drive to the nearest
garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which
could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.
Access to the kit
This kit is installed in the storage box, under
the boot floor. The vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a
tyre after a puncture
repair.
Composition of the kit
1. 12 V compressor, with integral pressure
gauge.
2. Sealant cartridge, with integral hose.
3. Speed limit sticker.
Repair procedure
F Park the vehicle without obstructing any
traffic and apply the parking brake.
F

warning lamps, warning triangle, wearing
high visibility vest, etc.) according to the
legislation in force in the country where you
are driving.

Take care, the sealant product is harmful
if swallowed and causes irritation to the
eyes.
Keep this product out of the reach of
children.
The use-by date of the fluid is marked on
the bottle.
After use, do not discard the bottle in
standard waste, take it to a PEUGEOT
dealer or an authorised waste disposal
site.
Do not forget to obtain a
new bottle of
sealant, available from a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop. Do not exceed the speed of 50
mph
(80 km/h) when driving with a tyre repaired
using this type of kit.
