(30


km/h).
Remembering the settings
Switching off the ignition cancels any speed
setting value chosen by the driver.
By default, the inter-vehicle distance is set
at "Normal " (2
dashes). Other wise, the last
setting made will be used when switching on
the system.

automatic gearbox. When the cruise control is paused, it can
only be reactivated when all of the safety
conditions are met again. The message
"Activation not possible, conditions
unsuitable" is displayed while reactivation
is not possible.
Reactivating the function
With manual gearbox
To reactivate the function, the driver must
accelerate to reach at least 19
mph (30 km/h),
then press one of the buttons 2 , 3

gearbox.
With automatic gearbox
Following braking of the vehicle bringing it to
a complete stop, the system holds the vehicle
stationary; the cruise control is paused.
The driver should press the accelerator pedal
to move off, then reactivate the system above
19

destrians, some cyclists, animals.
-

S
tationary vehicles (traffic jam, breakdown,
e t c .) . When the driver must suspend the cruise
control system:
Cases where the driver is urged to take
back control immediately:
-
E
xcessively sharp deceleration of the
vehicle in front of you. The system must not be activated in the
following situations:
-

U
se of the "space-saver" type spare wheel
(depending on version).

Installation tips
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey,
stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side
of the road.
F

A
pply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks under the wheels to prevent
movement of your vehicle.
F

F
it the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F

M
ove off gently and drive for a few
moments, without exceeding 31
mph
(50


km/h).
F

S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a
level and dry sur face.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fixings is in contact with the
wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle: Original tyre size

You can also use snow socks.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Towing device
Load distribution
F D istribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle, and the nose weight approaches
the maximum permitted without exceeding
it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. The maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10% for every
1,000
metres of altitude. Use towing devices and their original
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. It
is recommended that the installation
be per formed by a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a

qualified workshop.
If the towing device is not fitted by
a PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Certain driving assistance or manoeuvring
assistance functions are automatically
deactivated if an approved towing device
is used.
Obser ve the maximum authorised towable
weight, indicated on your vehicle's
registration certificate, the manufacturer's
label and in the Technical data section of
this guide.
Complying with the maximum
authorised nose weight (towball)
also includes the use of accessories
(bicycle carriers, tow boxes, etc.).
Obser ve the legislation in force in the
country in which you are driving.

Practical information

Particle filter (Diesel)
orThe start of saturation of the particle
filter is signalled by the temporary
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a
message warning
of the risk of the filter clogging up.
Traffic conditions permitting, regenerate
the filter by driving at a
speed of at least
37
mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp
goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates
a
low Diesel additive level.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
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 wear
For all information on checking
brake disc wear, contact
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop. This system must be checked by 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 adjusted, even between two
services.
On a

new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell, which
is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does not
affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment.
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.

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 indicator 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 electric 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
