Battery charge warning
light
This indicates one of the fol-
lowing:
- faulty operation of the charging circuit,
- slack battery or starter terminals,
- a cut or slack alternator belt,
- an alternator failure.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Emission control
system warning light
(according to model)
This comes on for a few seconds each
time the ignition is switched on.
If it comes on with the engine run -
ning, this indicates incorrect operation
of the injection, ignition or emission
control system.
If the warning light lashes, there
is a risk of damage to the catalytic
converter on petrol engines.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. Diesel engine pre-heat
warning light
Wait until the warning light
goes out before starting the engine.
If the temperature is high enough,
the warning light comes on for less
than one second. You can start the
engine without waiting.
Low fuel level
warning light
When this light irst co -
mes on, you have enough fuel to drive
at least 30 miles (50 km). The tank ca-
pacity is approximately 50 litres.
Speed limiter/cruise
control indicator light
This comes on when the
speed limiter or cruise control
is activated.
Dynamic stability
control system (ESP/
ASR) warning light
This comes on for a few seconds each
time the ignition is switched on.
With the engine running and when
the vehicle is moving, it comes on if
the system is activated.
It lights permanently accompanied by
a message on the multifunction dis-
play when the system is disarmed.
If the warning light remains lit with
the engine running and when the ve -
hicle is moving, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer. Anti-lock braking
system (ABS) warning
light
This comes on for a few seconds each
time the ignition is switched on.
If the warning light remains on or co -
mes on above 8 mph (12 km/h), this
indicates an ABS malfunction.
However, the vehicle retains conven -
tional servo-assisted braking.
Illumination of this warning light, ac -
companied by an audible signal and
a message on the multifunction dis-
play, indicates a fault in the ABS sys -
tem.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

Service indicator
This is a visual reminder of when the
next service is due. This service is to
be carried out according to the manu-
facturer’s servicing schedule.5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance re
-
corder resumes normal operation and
the display shows the total or trip dis -
tances.
The distance remaining before
the next service is less than
500 miles (1.000 km).
Example: 400 miles (900 km) remain
before the next service is due.
When switching on the ignition and
for 5 seconds, the display shows:
INSTRUMENT PANEL
DISPLAY
After switching on the ignition, three
functions are shown in succession:
- service indicator,
- engine oil level indicator,
- total distance recorder, it remains displayed for 30 seconds after
the ignition is switched off.
It also displays the speed limiter/
cruise control information, when one
of these systems is active (see cor-
responding section).
Operation
As soon as the ignition is switched
on and for 5 seconds, the spanner
symbolising service operations is lit.
The trip recorder display shows the
distance remaining (in round igures)
before the next service.
Example: 400 miles (900 km) re-
main before the next service is due.
When switching on the ignition and
for 5 seconds, the display shows: The service is overdue.
Each time the ignition is switched on
and for 5 seconds, the spanner and
the excess distance lash.
Example:
the service is overdue by
300 miles/km. The service should be
carried out very shortly.
When the ignition is switched on and
for 5 seconds, the display shows:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance re -
corder resumes normal operation and
the spanner remains lit. The display
shows the total or trip distances.
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance re -
corder resumes normal operation and
the display shows the total or trip dis -
tances.
This indicates that a service should
be carried out shortly. The display

SPEED LIMITER
This speed limiter, of the new gener -
ation, has a display on the instrument
panel to indicate the programmed
speed.
It prevents exceeding of the vehicle
speed programmed by the driver.
When the programmed speed is
reached, pressing the accelerator
pedal no longer has any effect.
The limiter operates with a pro -
grammed speed of at least 18 mph
approx. (30 km/h); it remains active
regardless of any action on the brake
and clutch pedals.
The operating actions must be
carried out:
- when stationary, with the
engine running,
or
- with the vehicle moving. The indicator light on the in-
strument panel comes on at
the same time.
Instrument panel display
When the speed limiter function is
active, pressing this button displays
the distance recorders.
After a few seconds or when this but
-
ton is pressed again, the display re -
turns to the speed limiter function.
Selecting the function
F Place the dial 1 in the LIMIT
position. The limiter is not yet
active. By default, the display
indicates: Storing a speed
A speed can be stored without acti
-
vating the limiter.
Press buttons 2 and 3 briely to de -
crease or increase by 1 mph (1 km/h).
An extended press decreases or
increases by 5 mph (5 km/h).
A maintained press decreases or
increases the programmed speed in
steps of 5 mph (5 km/h).
Activating/deactivating the limiter
Pressing button 4 once activates the
limiter, pressing the button again de -
activates it.
When the limiter is active, the display
indicates (e.g. at 70 mph (110 km/h)):

Exceeding the programmed
speed
Pressing the accelerator in order to
exceed the programmed speed will
have no effect unless you press the
pedal irmly beyond the point of re-
sistance .
The limiter is deactivated temporarily
and the programmed speed, which is
still displayed, lashes (e.g. at 70 mph
(110 km/h)):
Note: the speed also lashes when
the limiter cannot prevent the vehicle
from exceeding the programmed
speed (on a steep descent, in the
event of sharp acceleration).
To reactivate the limiter, release the
accelerator to slow down to a speed
below the programmed speed. Switching the function off
F
Place dial 1 in position 0
or switch off the ignition to
switch the system off. The last
programmed speed remains in
the memory.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked.
Operating fault
In the event of a limiter malfunction,
the programmed speed is cleared
and the indication below appears:
In the event of a steep descent
or sharp acceleration, the speed
limiter will not be able to prevent
the vehicle from exceeding the
programmed speed.
In any event, the speed limiter can
-
not replace the need to observe
speed limits, nor can it replace the
need for vigilance and responsibility
on the part of the driver.
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedals:
-
ensure that the mat and its
ixings are positioned correctly.
- never it one mat on top of another.
You are advised to keep your feet
near the pedals.
