Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle's 
engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular 
fuel may be required (specific octane rating, 
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct 
operation of the engine.
For any additional information, contact a dealer.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve 
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle 
when braking.The snow chains must be fitted only to the 
driving wheels. They must never be fitted 
to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in 
your country on the use of snow chains 
and the maximum authorised speed.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the 
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size
195/65 R15
9
  mm
19 5/ 70 R15
205/65 R15 215/5 5 R16215 / 5 0 R17
For more information on snow chains, contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. 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 fixtures is in contact with the 
wheel rim.
Installation advice
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 if necessary 
put wheel chocks against the wheels to 
prevent your vehicle from sliding.
F

provided by the manufacturer.
F

Screenwash fluid level
For optimal cleaning quality and safety, we 
recommend that you use the PEUGEOT range 
of products.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing, 
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced 
with plain water.
Capacity of the screenwash reser voir: 
approximately 3
 
litres.
Diesel additive level (Diesel 
engine with particle filter)
A low additive level is indicated by 
illumination of the Ser vice warning 
lamp, accompanied by an audible 
warning and a message on the screen.
If the message is still displayed and the Ser vice  
warning lamp remains lit, consult a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
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
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.
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.
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 
effectiveness 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.
Once the engine is started, this signals that 
the particle filter is starting to saturate (in 
conditions of urban driving of exceptionally long 
duration: low speeds, traffic jams, etc.).
To regenerate the filter, you are advised to 
drive as soon as possible, as traffic conditions 
allow, at a speed of at least 37
 
mph (around 
60
 
km/h) for at least five minutes (until the 
Ser vice warning lamp goes off and the 
message disappears).
Relay noises may be heard under the 
dashboard during regeneration of the particle 
f i l t e r. At the start of winter, have your battery checked 
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Temporary puncture 
repair kit
The kit is located in a storage compartment 
under the front seat.
Vehicles supplied with a temporary puncture 
repair kit do not have a spare wheel or the 
corresponding tools ( jack, wheelbrace, etc.).
The temporary puncture repair kit comprises a 
compressor and a bottle of sealant.
Using the kit

F  
D
 rive at reduced speed (50   mph (80 km/h) 
maximum). The tyre must be examined 
and repaired by a professional as soon as 
possible.
After use, the bottle can be stored in a plastic 
bag, supplied in the kit, to avoid staining your 
vehicle with traces of fluid. Please note, the sealant product is 
harmful if swallowed and causes irritation 
to the eyes.
It must be kept out of the reach of children.
Do not discard the bottle by the roadside 
after use, take it to a PEUGEOT dealer or 
an authorised waste disposal site.
Bottles of sealant are available from 
PEUGEOT dealers.

Lifting (only 2 wheels on 
the road)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle using 
professional lifting equipment. General recommendations 
Obser ve the legislation in force in your 
c o u nt r y.
Ensure that the weight of the towing 
vehicle is higher than that of the towed 
vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of 
the towed vehicle and must have a valid 
driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four 
wheels on the ground, always use an 
approved towing arm; rope and straps are 
prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When the vehicle is towed with its engine 
off, there is no longer braking and steering 
assistance.
In the following cases, you must always 
call on a professional recovery ser vice:
-
 
v

main road,
-
 f
 our-wheel drive vehicle,
-  
w

-  t owing with only two wheels on the 
ground,
-
 
w
 here there is no approved towbar 
available.
