For an even air distribution, make
sure that you do not block the outside

passages and the air outlets to the
footwells.
Ensure that the passenger

regularly. If you drive in dusty
conditions, change them twice as
often.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to keep it in perfect working order.
In order to ensure that your air
conditioning system continues to
operate correctly, you are advised to
have it checked regularly.

Otherwise, you risk seriously
damaging your engine.
Do not dispose of used oil,

Empty the used oil into the
containers provided for this
purpose in the PEUGEOT dealer

(France) or at an authorised waste
disposal site.
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up
between changes. The maximum oil
consumption is 0.5 litre per 600 miles
(1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the dipstick.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can op-
erate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
BATTERY
Do not push the vehicle to
start the engine if you have a
"2 Tronic" gearbox.
Before disconnecting the
battery, you must wait for
2 minutes after switching off
the ignition.
Starting the vehicle from
another battery
-
Connect the red cable to the posi-
tive (+) terminals of the two batteries,
- connect the green or black cable to the negative (-) terminals of the
two batteries,
-
operate the starter, let the engine run,
- wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
It is advisable to disconnect
the battery if the vehicle is
not to be used for a period of
more than one month.
The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric
acid and lead. They must
be discarded in accordance
with the provisions of the law and
must not, in any circumstances, be
discarded with household waste.
Take used batteries to an authorised
waste disposal site.
Charging the battery using
a battery charger
- Disconnect the battery,
- follow the instructions for use
given by the battery charger
manufacturer,
- reconnect starting with the negative (-) terminal,
- check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (white or
greenish deposit), disconnect
them and clean them.
