2018 Peugeot 208 low oil pressure

7
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items at the back 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,
bicycle carrier, trailer, etc.). Preferably, use a
roof box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow 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.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin filter, etc.) and
obser ve the schedule of operations in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
When filling the tank, do not continue after the
3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after the first 1,900
miles (3,000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a
consistent average.
With a
BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes
polluting. Visit a PEUGEOT dealer or
a

qualified workshop as soon as possible to
bring your vehicle's nitrogen oxide emissions
back in line with the regulations.

9. Remote earth point.
10. Priming pump*
The Diesel circuit is under very high
pressure.
All work on this circuit must be carried out
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with
the manufacturer's service schedule. 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.
The liquid must comply with the
manufacturer's recommendations and with
the vehicle's engine. 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 it in
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles equipped with an
electric gauge, or using the dipstick.

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 under floor storage,
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 bottle, with integral hose.
3. Speed limit sticker.
Repair procedure
F Park the vehicle without obstructing any
traffic and apply the parking brake.
F

F
ollow the safety instructions (hazard
warning lamps, warning triangle, wearing
high visibility vest, etc.) according to the
legislation in force in the country where you
are driving.
F

S
witch off the ignition. F

the bottle of sealant.
F
T
urn the sealant bottle over and secure it in
the notch provided on the compressor.
In the event of a breakdown

123
F Remove the valve cap from the tyre to be repaired, and place it in a clean area.
F

C
heck that the compressor switch is at the
" O " position.
F

U
ncoil fully the electric cable, stowed under
the compressor.
F

C
onnect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12
V socket.
F

A
ffix the speed limit sticker.
The speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the driver's
field of vision, to remind you that a
wheel
is in temporary use. F

S
witch on the ignition.
If a
pressure of 2 bars is not reached after
about 7
minutes, this indicates that the
tyre is not repairable; contact a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop for
assistance.
F

C
onnect the hose from the bottle of sealant
to the valve of the tyre to be repaired and
tighten firmly. The tyre inflation pressures are given on
this label.
F

S
tart the compressor by turning the switch
to the " l" position until the pressure of the
tyre reaches 2.0
bars. The sealant product
is injected under pressure into the tyre;
do not disconnect the pipe from the valve
during this operation (risk of blowback). F
P lace the switch in the "
O" position.
F D isconnect the compressor's electric plug
from the vehicle's 12
