Automatic electronic
parking brake
This system does not require any
routine servicing. However, in case
of an issue, do not hesitate to have
the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the Automatic
electronic 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. 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 unwanted ESC regulation.
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! 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)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the per formance or fuel
consumption of 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 liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® is contained in
a special tank holding about
17
litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of
approximately 5,600
miles (9,000 km), highly
dependent on your driving style.
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 empty.

Practical information
189
The vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair.
For more information on the Tool kit, refer
to the corresponding section.
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 Uncoil the pipe stowed under the compressor.
Avoid removing any foreign bodies which
have penetrated into the tyre.
It is designed to repair most punctures
which could affect the tyre, located on the
tyre tread or shoulder.
F
R
emove the valve cap from the tyre to be
repaired, and place it in a clean area.
F
C

the bottle of sealant. F
T

the notch provided on the compressor.
F
C

to the valve of the tyre to be repaired and
tighten firmly.

Access to the spare wheel
F Access to the spare wheel is from the rear.
F
I
f your vehicle is fitted with a towbar, raise
the rear of the vehicle using the jack (must
be at jacking point B ) to allow sufficient
space to remove the spare wheel.
Remove the spare wheel from the
carrier
F Depending on version, open the tailgate or the hinged doors.
F
A
ccess the carrier bolt, located on the rear
door sill.
F
S
lacken the bolt using the wheelbrace until
the carrier is low enough to allow the carrier
hook to be disengaged. F
R
elease the carrier from the hook, take the
spare wheel and place it next to the wheel
to be changed.
Refit the spare wheel in the
carrier
F Position the wheel facing the carrier.
F P rogressively return the wheel to the carrier
by pushing alternately at left and right until it
is clear of the hook fixing area.
For more information on the Tool kit
, refer
to the corresponding section.
F
P
ark the vehicle without obstructing any
traffic and apply the parking brake.
F

Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not
block traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and non-slippery.
With a manual gearbox, engage first gear
then switch off the ignition to block the
wheels.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector in position P then switch off the
ignition to block the wheels.
Apply the parking brake and check that
the warning lamp is on in the instrument
panel.
The occupants must get out of the vehicle
and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.
With an automatic electronic parking
brake, place a chock against the wheel
diagonally opposite to the one being
replaced.Wheel with wheel trim
When removing the wheel
, first remove
the wheel trim by pulling at the valve
aperture using the wheelbrace. Do not use:
-
t
he jack for any other purpose than
lifting the vehicle,
-
a j
ack other than the one supplied by
the manufacturer.
F
P
lace the foot of the jack on the ground and
ensure that it is directly below the A or B
jacking point provided on the underbody,
whichever is closest to the wheel to be
changed.
F
W
ith a steel wheel, remove the trim using
tool 8 .
F
W
ith an alloy wheel, remove the cap from
each of the bolts using tool 8 .
F
I
f your vehicle is so equipped, fit security
bolt socket 9 to wheelbrace 6 to slacken the
security bolt.
F
S
lacken (without removing) the other wheel
bolts using just wheelbrace 6 .
F
E
ngage the carrier on the hook, then
tighten the bolt using the wheelbrace until
the carrier is fully home and the bolt is
completely tight.

In the event of a breakdown
195
After changing a wheel
Stow the punctured wheel in the carrier.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
Have the punctured tyre examined. After
inspection, the technician will advise you
on whether the tyre can be repaired or if it
must be replaced.
Some driving aid functions should be
disabled, e.g. the Active Safety Brake.If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.
For more information on Under-inflation
detection
, refer to the corresponding
section.
Wheel with wheel trim
When refitting the wheel , refit the wheel
trim starting by placing its notch facing the
valve and press around its edge with the
palm of your hand.
Changing a bulb
The headlamps have polycarbonate
lenses with a protective coating:
F
d
o not clean them using a dr y or
abrasive cloth, nor with a detergent
or solvent product,
F
u
se a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product,
F
w
hen using a high pressure washer
on persistent marks, do not keep the
lance directed towards the lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to
damage their protective coating and
seals.
Changing a bulb should only be done after
the headlamp has been switched off for
several minutes (risk of serious burns).
F
D
o not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers, use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new
bulb with the same type and specification.
Fitting a steel or "
space-saver" spare
wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels,
when tightening the bolts on fitting it is
normal to notice that the washers do not
come into contact with the steel or "space-
saver" spare wheel. The wheel is secured
by the conical contact of each bolt.
The tyre inflation pressures are given on
this label.
