Recommendations for approved lubricants The oils which appear in the table opposite are suitable for most pur-poses. The diagram opposite states the optimum range of viscosity dependingon the temperatures at which the oilsare to be used. It is also possible to use "superior qua- lity" synthetic oils. In the absence of semi-synthetic
or synthetic oils, oils of API SH/SJquality may be used by following the "arduous conditions" servicingschedule which specifies shorter service intervals. Do not hesitate to ask for advice
from an approved PEUGEOT dealerto maintain driving pleasure and tominimise the maintenace cost of yourvehicle. For vehicles outside Europe, please
contact a local PEUGEOT dealer.

Operating programmes
You have a choice of three operating pro- grammes:
Ð Autoadaptive (normal).
Ð Sport.
Ð Snow.One press on button
Aor Bwill select
Sport or Snow respectively. The selec- tion is displayed on the instrumentpanel. Pressing the button a secondtime will return to the autoadaptive(normal) programme. Autoadaptive programme (normal) Gear changes are carried out on the basis of various parameters, such as:
Ð driving style,
Ð road characteristics,
Ð vehicle load.The gearbox continuously scans the
different programmes in the memoryand selects the one most suitable forthe driving conditions at any givenmoment. Sport programme The Sport programme automatically favours more dynamic driving. Snow Programme In position
D, the Snow programme
provides smooth driving suited to slip- pery roads in order to improve traction
and stability. Starting is in 2nd gear
and changing down is at low enginespeeds. Special operating features
Ð During prolonged braking, the gearbox changes down automatically, so as to
provide efficient engine braking.
Ð If you take your foot off the accele- rator suddenly (when you are takenby surprise, for example), the gear-box will not change up, so as to
improve safety.
Ð When the engine is cold, the gear- box automatically selects a specialprogramme that enables the engineto reach its ideal temperature more quickly in order to decrease pollu-tion.
Kickdown For immediate maximum acceleration
without touching the gear lever, press theaccelerator pedal down as far as it will go.The gearbox will change down automati-cally or stay in the gear selected, up tomaximum engine speed.Any disruption of the system is signalled by the simulta-neous flashing of the Sportand Snow lights on the ins-
trument panel. In such a case, thegearbox will operate in downgrade
mode. You may feel a substantialknock when reverse is selected from P
to Ror Nto R(without any risk of
damage to the gearbox). Do not exceed 60 m.p.h. (100km/h).Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay. When the engine is idling with the car
in gear, the car will move even withoutyou accelerating. Do not accelerate while a gear is being
selected, when the vehicle is stationary.
When stationary, have your foot on the
brake pedal when selecting a gear. Do not accelerate in gear with the brakes on. If work needs to be done with the engi- ne running, apply the handbrake andselect position P.
Do not change down to brake on slip-pery roads. Never select position Nwhen the
vehicle is moving.Never engage Por Rif the vehicle is
not stationary.Do not leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised when the engineis running.

Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the engine
cold. The level should always beabove the MINI mark, close to theMAXI mark.
Windscreen wash reservoir For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we recommend that you use pro-
ducts approved by PEUGEOT (capacity2.8 litres). Battery
At the start of winter, have your batte-
ry checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Air filter Regular replacement of the filter element is essential. If you drive in very dustyconditions, change it twice as often. Brake pads Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicleswhich are used in town, for short jour-neys. It may be necessary to checkthe thickness of the pads even bet-ween services. Manual gearbox This does not need an oil change. Check the level according to the manufacturer'sservicing schedule. Autoadaptive automatic gearbox This does not need an oil change: have
the level checked by a PEUGEOT dea-ler according to the manufacturer's ser-vicing schedule.Only use products approved
by PEUGEOT.
To ensure best performance from components as impor-
tant as the power steering and the bra-king system, PEUGEOT selects andoffers quite specific products.

 Position the jack 3at one of the four locations Aunderneath the vehicle, as
close as possible to the wheel to be changed. Ensure that the entire surface ofthe jack base plate is in contact with the ground.
 Extend the jack 3.
 Remove the bolts and release the wheel.
* According to specification.

PRACTICAL ASPECTS OF YOUR VEHICLE97
Refitting the wheel 
After positioning the wheel, pre-tighten the bolts using the wheelbrace 1.
 Compress the jack 3and release it.
 Fully tighten the bolts using the wheelbrace 1.
 Replace the wheel trim*, starting at the valve passage hole, and press on it using the palm of the hand.
Replace the shim and the jack in their bag, then store the tools in the boot.For your safety, always change the wheel:
- on level, stable and non-slippery ground,
- with the handbrake applied and the ignition switched off,
- with the first or reverse gear engaged (position Pfor the auto-
matic gearbox),
- with the vehicle chocked using a shim.
Never go underneath a vehiclewhich is supported only by a jack(use an axle stand) .
