2018 Peugeot 308 fuel pressure

7
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,
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 oxides emissions
back in line with the regulations.
For vehicles fitted with it, avoid using the
Dynamic Pack for too long, in order to limit
your fuel consumption.

ith the parking brake released, the vehicle
then moves off.
In severe wintry conditions (temperature
below -23°C), it is recommended that the
engine be allowed to run for a few minutes
before moving off, to ensure the correct
operation and durability of the engine and
gearbox. If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Stopping the vehicle
Whatever the state of the gearbox when the
ignition is switched off, mode P is engaged
automatically, with the exception of mode N
,
in which case mode P will be engaged after
a delay of 5
seconds (allowing the change to
free-wheel).
Check that mode P has been engaged and that
the electric parking brake has been applied
automatically; if not, apply it manually.
The corresponding indicator lamps for
the selector and the electric parking
brake control lever must be on, as well
as the ones in the instrument panel.
SPORT/ECO control
Driver Sport Pack
With the engine running, when the Driver
Spor t Pack is activated, the gearbox delays
changing up for a more dynamic driving style.
The programme is automatically deactivated
when the ignition is switched off.Eco mode
Activating this mode reduces fuel consumption
by optimising the operation of the heating and
air conditioning and, depending on version, the
pedals, the automatic gearbox and the gear
shift indicator. Activating the Driver Spor t Pack is not
recommended in the following situations:
-
A
SR system deactivated,
-
l
ow fuel level reached,
-
l
ow AdBlue level reached.
Pressing the front part of the control activates
the Driver Spor t Pack . The indicator lamp
comes on.
Pressing this control again deactivates the
function. The indicator lamp goes off.
For more information on the Driver Spor t
Pack , refer to the corresponding section.
Pressing this button has no effect when
towing a connected trailer.

Activation
F Press and hold the Sport button until
the ambience of the back-lighting in the
instrument panel changes.
The indicator lamp for the button comes on.
If the LED flashes, activation is not
possible (for example if Park Assist or
snow mode is selected) and so the back-
lighting returns to its normal mode.
If the flashing of the LED persists,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Display of the dynamic
vehicle parameters
This telemetry information (longitudinal
and lateral acceleration, power produced,
turbocharger pressure, etc.) is given as an
indication only.
F

panel, press the end of the wiper control
stalk.
F

P
ress repeatedly to go from one screen to
another.
Gear shift indicator
(Depending on engine.)
This system reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
Gear shift recommendations are for information
only. In fact, the road layout, the traffic density
and safety remain the deciding factors when
choosing the best gear. The driver therefore
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the indications issued by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
With an automatic gearbox, the system is
only active in manual mode. The information appears in the
instrument panel in the form of an
ascending or descending arrow and a
recommended gear.

The tyre under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
This system still requires you to check
the tyre inflation pressures (including
the spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes early tyre wear, particularly in
adverse conditions (heavy loads, high
speeds, long journeys).Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption. The tyre pressure specifications for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Tyre pressures should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the
pressures shown on the label.
Snow chains
The system does not have to be
reinitialised after fitting or removing snow
chains.
Under-inflation alert
This warning is indicated by fixed
illumination of this warning lamp, an
audible signal and, depending on
the equipment installed, a message
displayed on the screen.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised after ever y tyre
pressure adjustment or wheel change
.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres.
F

R

educe speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and sudden braking.
F

S

top the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so. The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual
check.
F
I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment),
or
F
i
f you have a compressor, such as the one
in the temporary puncture repair kit, check
the pressures of the four tyres when cold,
or
F
i
f it is not possible to carry out this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
The alert is kept active until the system is
reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any
adjustment to the pressure of one or more
tyres, and after changing one or more wheels.

When the engine is hot, the temperature of this
fluid 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 the risk of scalding when you need to
top up in an emergency, place a cloth around
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap
and top up to the required level.
Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.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 specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water. In wintry conditions, it is recommended
that you use an ethyl alcohol or methanol
based fluid.
Diesel fuel additive level
(Diesel with particle filter)
A low additive level is indicated by
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message in the instrument
panel screen.
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
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule and according
to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
12 V 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.
For more information on the precautions
to take before starting work on the 12
V
battery , refer to the corresponding
section.
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.
Air 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 .
Practical information

188
Brake disc/drum wear
For information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any
specific check. However, in the
event of a problem, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
For more information on the Electric
parking brake , refer to the corresponding
section.
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. 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!
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.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines)
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.
SCR system
Using a fluid called AdBlue® containing urea,
a catalytic converter converts up to 85%
of nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
