Driving recommendations
Obser ve the Highway Code and remain vigilant
whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your
hands on the wheel so that you are ready to
react at any time to any eventuality.
As a safety measure, the driver should only
carry out any operations that require close
attention when the vehicle is stationary.
On a long journey, a break every two hours is
strongly recommended.
In bad weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the
need to brake and increase the safety distance.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage
to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
electrical systems of your vehicle.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied
– risk of overheating and damage to the
braking system!
Do not park and do not run the engine
with the vehicle stationary, in areas where
substances and combustible materials
(dry grass, leaves, etc.) can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system – Risk
of fire!Never leave a vehicle unsuper vised with
the engine running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the engine running, apply
the parking brake and put the gearbox into
neutral or position N or P
, depending on
the type of gearbox.
In case of towing
If you are obliged to drive through water:
- c heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 15
cm, taking account of waves that
might be generated by other users,
-

d
eactivate the Stop & Start function,
-

d
rive as slowly as possible without stalling.
Under no circumstances exceed 6
mph
(10


km/h),
-

d
o not stop and do not switch off the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as
circumstances allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop. Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity
to wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F

T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towable load on an incline
depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.

This must be done at the inter vals specified in
the manufacturer's servicing schedule. Ask for
advice from a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil grade
In all cases, the chosen oil must meet
the requirements in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Brake fluid level
Coolant levelWhen the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the electric fan. This
may operate with the ignition off; furthermore,
because the cooling system is under pressure,
wait for at least one hour after the engine has
stopped before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by a quarter of a turn to allow the pressure to
drop. Once the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap and top up the level with the coolant.
If coolant has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
To p p i n g u p
Oil change
The brake fluid must be changed at the
inter vals prescribed according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use brake fluid recommended by the
manufacturer, meeting the DOT4 standards.
The level must be between the MIN and MA X
marks on the reservoir.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this indicates
a malfunction which must be checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
Only use coolant recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise you risk causing serious damage to
your engine.

the circuit checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap
integrated with the gauge and check the level
which must be between the MIN and MA X
marks.
