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 the roof rack 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, passenger compartment 
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.

Electronic engine 
immobiliser
All of the keys contain an electronic immobiliser 
device.
This device locks the engine supply system. 
It is activated automatically when the key is 
removed from the ignition.
When the ignition switch is turned on, a 
dialogue is set up between the key and the 
electronic immobiliser.
The metal part of the key must be correctly 
unfolded to ensure a good connection.
In case of lost keys
See a PEUGEOT dealer with the vehicle 
registration certificate and your ID.
A PEUGEOT dealer can retrieve the key 
code and the transponder code to order the 
replacement key.
When you leave the vehicle, check that the 
lamps are off and do not leave valuables 
visible.
As a safety precaution (with children on 
board), remove the key from the ignition when 
leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.
Parking brake
Application
F Pull the parking brake lever up to immobilise your vehicle.
F
 
C
 heck that the parking brake is applied 
firmly before leaving the vehicle.
When parking on a slope, turn your 
wheels towards the kerb and pull the 
parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging a gear 
after parking the vehicle, particularly if the 
vehicle is loaded. Apply the parking brake only when the 
vehicle is stationary
.
In the exceptional case of use of the 
parking brake when the vehicle is moving, 
apply the brake by pulling gently to avoid 
locking the rear wheels (risk of skidding).
Release
F Pull the lever up slightly and press the  button to release the parking brake lever.
When the vehicle is being driven, this 
warning lamp coming on indicates 
that the parking brake is still on or 
has not been fully released.
Manual gearbox
To change gear easily, always press the clutch 
pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught 
under the pedal:
-
 
e
 nsure that the mat is positioned and 
secured to the floor correctly,
-
 
n
 ever fit one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand on the 
gear knob as the force exerted, even if slight, 
may wear the internal components of the 
gearbox over time.

Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed 
illumination of this under-inflation 
warning lamp accompanied by the 
illumination of the Ser vice warning 
lamp, and depending on equipment, 
the display of a message indicates a 
fault with the system.
In this case, the pressure in the tyres is no 
longer monitored.
This alert is also displayed when one or 
more wheels are not fitted with a sensor 
(for example, a space-saver or steel spare 
wheel).
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the system checked or, 
following the repair of a puncture, to have the 
original wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted.
Tyre under-inflation 
detection with 
reinitialisation
The system monitors the pressure in all four 
tyres, as soon as the vehicle is moving.
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 once a drop in 
pressure is detected in one or more tyres.
The under-inflation detection system does 
not replace the need for vigilance on the 
part of the driver.
This system does not eliminate the need 
to check the tyre inflation pressures 
(including the spare) every month and 
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.
System which automatically checks the 
pressures of the tyres while driving. The inflation pressures specified 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 must be checked "cold" 
(vehicle stopped for 1
  hour or after a 
journey of less than 6
  miles (10   km) 
travelled at a moderate speed).
Other wise (when hot), add 0.3
  bar to the 
pressures shown on the label.
Under-inflation alert
This is indicated by continuous 
illumination of this warning lamp, an 
audible signal and, depending on 
the equipment installed, a message 
displayed on the screen.

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.).

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.

Fitting the spare wheel
When using a non-uniform spare wheel, 
do not exceed 50  mph (80   km/h).
The spare wheel is not designed to 
be used over long distances. Have 
the tightening of the bolts and the tyre 
pressure of the spare wheel checked by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop 
as soon as possible.
Also, have the original wheel repaired 
and refitted by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
F
 
P
 osition the wheel on the hub and start 
tightening the bolts by hand.
Ensure that the jack is stable. The foot 
of the jack must be in contact with the 
ground and directly below the jacking 
point used.
If the ground is slippery or loose, the jack 
may slip or drop – Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only at 
one of jacking points under the vehicle, 
making sure that the vehicle's contact 
sur face is centred on the head of the jack.
Other wise, there is a risk of damage to the 
vehicle and/or of the jack collapsing – Risk 
of injury!
Do not extend the jack until you have 
started unscrewing the bolts on the wheel 
to be changed and have placed the chock 
under the wheel diagonally opposite.
