Coolant temperature

If the needle is positioned between C (Cold)
and H (Hot): normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to the red
graduations.
If the needle enters the red zone or if the
warning lamp lights up:
►

stop immediately
, turn the ignition off. The
cooling fan may continue to run for a while, up to
approximately 10 minutes.
►

wait for the engine to cool down to check the
level and if necessary

, top it up.
In case of topping up
Be careful, the cooling circuit is under pressure!
To avoid any risk of burns, take a cloth and
unscrew the cap two turns to relieve the
pressure.
When the pressure has dropped, check the level
and remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Check the engine coolant level regularly.
For more information on Checking
levels, refer to the corresponding section.
AdBlue® fluid ange
indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reserve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched on,
an indicator displays an estimate of the distance
that can be travelled before engine starting is
prevented.
In the event of a simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest-range figure is
the one displayed.
In the event of the risk of non-starting
related to a lack ofAdBlue®
The engine start prevention system required by regulations is activated
automatically once theAdBlue
® tank is empty.
Range greater than 1,500 miles (2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of range in the instrument
panel.
Range between 1,500 and 375 miles (2,400
and 600 km)
Once the 1,500 miles (2,400 km)
threshold is reached, this indicator
flashes, accompanied by a temporary message
indicating the driving autonomy expressed in
miles or kilometres before the starting of the
engine is blocked.
Each time the ignition is switched on, the alert
will be accompanied by an audible signal.
The reserve level has been reached; it is
recommended that you top up as soon as
possible.
Range less than 372 miles (600 km)

Instruments
1Once the 372 miles (600 km) threshold is
reached, this indicator flashes,
accompanied by a message indicating the
driving autonomy expressed in miles or
kilometres before the starting of the engine is
blocked.
The alert will be repeated with update of the
remaining range at each increment of 31 miles
(50 km) travelled.
Each time the ignition is switched on, the alert
will be accompanied by an audible signal.
It is imperative to top up as soon as possible
before the tank empties completely. Otherwise
you will not be able to restart the vehicle.
Breakdown related to a lack of AdBlue
®
0 mile/km range reached: the AdBlue® tank is
empty. An engine immobiliser system required by
legislation prevents starting of the engine.
Unless the AdBlue
® is topped up in the
special additive tank, the vehicle will remain
immobilised.
To be able to restart the engine, you must add at least 5 litres of AdBlue®. You
can also ask a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop to carry out the necessary
top-up.
For more information on the AdBlue®
(BlueHDi engines), and in particular on
topping up, refer to the corresponding section.
In the event of a fault with the SCR
emissions control system
Detection
The Engine self-diagnostic warning lamp comes on.
Each time the ignition is switched on, the audible
signal and a message confirm an emissions
control fault.
In the case of a temporary fault, the alert shall
disappear as soon as the level of exhaust
emissions returns to compliance with the
standard.
However, after 31 miles (50 km) travelled
with the warning lamp permanently on,
the fault is confirmed.
An engine immobiliser system will be
automatically activated once 250 miles
(400 km) have been travelled since this
confirmation.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Fault confirmed
In addition to the previous indications, the
range allowed will be displayed in miles or
kilometres in the instrument panel.
The alert will be repeated every 30 seconds with
an update of the range.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop. You may not be able to restart the vehicle.
Starting prevented, after the 250 miles
(400 km).
Whenever an attempt is made to start the
engine, the alert is activated and the
starting prevention message is displayed.
In order to be able to restart the engine:
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

different places on your vehicle. They
include safety warnings as well as
identification information for the vehicle.
For all work on your vehicle, use a
qualified workshop that has the technical
information, skills and equipment required, all
of which a PEUGEOT dealer is able to
provide.
Depending on country regulations,
certain safety equipment may be
mandatory: high visibility safety vests,
warning triangles, breathalysers, spare bulbs,
spare fuses, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, mud
flaps at the rear of the vehicle, etc.
Installing electrical accessories:
– The fitting of electrical equipment or
accessories not approved by PEUGEOT
may
cause excessive current consumption and
faults and failures with the electrical system
of your vehicle. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer
for information on the range of approved
accessories.
–

As a safety measure, access to the
diagnostic socket, used for the vehicle's
electronic systems, is reserved strictly for
PEUGEOT dealers or qualified workshops,
equipped with the special tools required (risk
of malfunctions of the vehicle's electronic
systems that could cause breakdowns or
serious accidents). The Manufacturer cannot
be held responsible if this advice is not
followed.
–

Any modification or adaptation not intended
or authorised by PEUGEOT

or carried out
without meeting the technical requirements
defined by the Manufacturer will result in the
suspension of the commercial warranty.
Installation of accessory radio
communication transmitters

Safety
5Pedestrian horn (Electric)
This system alerts pedestrians that the vehicle is approaching.
The pedestrian horn operates once the vehicle
is moving and at speeds of up to 25 mph
(40
km/h), in forward or reverse gear.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Electronic stability control
(ESC)
Electronic stability control (ESC: Electronic
Stability Control) integrating the following
systems:
–

anti-lock braking system (ABS) and electronic
brake force distribution (EBFD),
–


emergency braking assistance (EBA),
–


wheel anti-slip regulation (ASR) or traction
control,
–


dynamic stability control (DSC).
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD)
This system improves the stability and handling
of your vehicle when braking and contributes
towards improved control on bends, in particular
on poor or slippery road surfaces. ABS prevents wheel locking in the event of
emergency braking.
EBFD manages the braking pressure wheel by
wheel.
Emergency braking assistance (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you
to reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is depressed. The effect of this
is a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction
Control) optimises traction in order to limit
wheel slip, by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves the
directional stability of the vehicle on acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path followed
by the vehicle and that required by the driver, the
DSC monitors each wheel and automatically acts
on the brake of one or more wheels and on the
engine to return the vehicle to the required path,
within the limits of the laws of physics.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
When this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by a message on the
instrument panel display screen, it indicates that
there is a fault with the ABS, which could cause
loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
When these warning lamps come
on, accompanied by a message on
the instrument panel display screen, they
indicate that there is a fault with the electronic
brake force distribution (EBFD), which could
cause loss of control of the vehicle when
braking.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
For maximum efficiency of the braking
system, a period of adjustment of
approximately 310 miles (500 km) is
necessary. During this period, it is advisable
to avoid abrupt, repeated and prolonged
braking.
The anti-lock device does not allow for shorter braking. On a very slippery road

58
Safety
surface (ice, oil, etc.), the ABS system is
liable to lengthen braking distances.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims),
ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
When braking in an emergency, press
very firmly and maintain this pressure,
even on a slippery road surface.
After an impact
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Switching on
The DSC system is activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
It comes into operation in the event of a grip or
trajectory problem.
This is indicated by the flashing of this warning lamp on the instrument panel.
Deactivation
This system cannot be deactivated by the driver.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
Deactivation / Reactivation
The ASR system is activated automatically every
time the vehicle is started.
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, etc.), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASR system, so that the wheels can turn
freely and regain grip.
Reactivate the system as soon as the level of
grip permits.



ASR

► Press this button to deactivate / reactivate the
function.
The illumination of the button indicator lamp,
accompanied by a message on the instrument
panel display screen, indicates that the
ASR
system is deactivated.
The ASR system is automatically reactivated
every time the ignition is switched off
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, this warning
lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
ASR / DSC
These systems offer increased safety in
normal driving, but they should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks or drive at high
speed.
It is in conditions of reduced grip (rain, snow,
ice) that the risk of loss of grip increases. It
is therefore important for your safety to keep
these systems activated in all conditions, and
particularly in difficult conditions.
The correct operation of these systems
depends on observation of the manufacturer's
recommendations regarding as much
the wheels (tyres and rims), braking and
electronic components as the assembly
and repair procedures used by PEUGEOT
dealers.
To benefit in full from the effectiveness
of these systems in wintry conditions,
the vehicle must be fitted with four snow
tyres, allowing the vehicle to retain neutral
behaviour on the road.

59
Safety
5Intelligent Traction Control
Traction assistance system on roads with low
grip (snow, ice, mud, etc.).
This system makes it possible to detect the
situations of precarious grip which can make the
starting and the progress of the vehicle difficult.
In these situations, the Intelligent Traction
Control system overrides the ASR system by
transferring the driving force to the wheel with
the greatest contact with the ground to optimise
traction and trajectory tracking.
Activation/Deactivation
When starting the vehicle, this system is
deactivated.




► Press this button to activate/deactivate the
system.
When the button indicator lamp comes on, the
system is activated.
This system is active up to approximately 19
mph (30 km/h).
Above 19 mph (30 km/h), the system is
automatically deactivated but the button indicator
lamp remains on. The system is automatically reactivated as soon
as the speed returns below approximately 19
mph (30 km/h).
Malfunction
In the event of an Intelligent Traction
Control malfunction, this warning lamp
comes on.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Load inertia control
The actual total weight of a commercial vehicle
can vary considerably depending on its load.
The centre of gravity of the vehicle can therefore
move in the longitudinal direction and even in
height.
Each of these variations has repercussions
on braking, traction, cornering behaviour and
overturning.
The load inertia control estimates the actual total
weight of the vehicle by analysing its behaviour,
during acceleration and braking phases.
This system then adapts the intervention of the
DSC and ASR systems according to the weight
distribution of the vehicle. In critical situations,
your vehicle therefore remains more safely on its
trajectory.
Hill Assist Descent
Control
Descent assistance system on roads with low
grip (mud, gravel, etc.) or with a steep gradient.
This system reduces the risk of the vehicle
slipping or running out of control as it moves
downhill.
It maintains the vehicle at a constant speed
during a descent by acting independently and
differentially on the brakes.
Activation / Deactivation
When starting the vehicle, the system is
deactivated.




► With the speed below 19 mph (30 km/h),
press this button to activate the system; the
button indicator lamp lights up.
When the vehicle begins its descent, you can
release the accelerator and brake pedals; the
button indicator lamp flashes.
The brake lamps automatically light up when the
function is activated.
