Warning lamps

When the engine is running or the vehicle is
being driven, the illumination of one of the fol-
lowing warning lamps indicates a fault which
requires action on the part of the driver. Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated
further by reading the associated message in the multifunction screen.
If you encounter any problems, do not hesitate to contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

The level shown will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.















Engine oil level indicator

System which informs the driver whether
the engine oil level is correct or not.
This information is indicated for a few seconds
when the ignition is switched on, after the serv-
ice information.

Oil level correct

Oil level low

Dipstick
This is indicated by the fl ashing of
"OIL"
, linked with the service warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the multifunction
screen.
If the low oil level is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, the level must

Coolant temperature indicator

System which informs the driver of the
changes in the temperature of the en-
gine coolant while driving.
With the engine running, when the nee-
dle is:


- in zone A
, the temperature is correct,

- in zone B
, the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning
lamp 1
and the central STOP
warn-
ing lamp come on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message in
the multifunction screen.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop. After driving for a few minutes, the tem-
perature and pressure in the cooling
system increase.
To top up the level:


)
wait for the engine to cool,

)
unscrew the cap by two turns to al-
low the pressure to drop,

)
when the pressure has dropped, re-
move the cap,

)
top up the level to the "MAX" mark
(circular line). On petrol engines, the cooling of the
engine is managed electronically to
reduce fuel consumption. Conse-
quently, the coolant temperature
levels are no longer simply linked
with the external ambient conditions
and the use of the vehicle.
For example, in town, it is normal
for the coolant temperature to be
slightly higher in cold weather than
in hot weather (normal operation
may lead to a temperature of over
100 °).

The air conditioning system does
not contain chlorine and does not
present any danger to the ozone
layer. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR
CONDITIONING

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and main-
tenance guidelines below:


)
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air
intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents
and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.

)
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is used
for regulation of the digital air conditioning system.

)
Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or
twice a month to keep it in perfect working order.

)
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and
have the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter.
Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purifi cation of
the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy de-
posits).

)
To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly as recommended in the Maintenance
and Warranty Guide.

)
If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power and so
improves the towing ability.

If after an extended stop in sunshine, the interior temperature is very high, fi rst
ventilate the passenger compartment for a few moments.
Put the air fl ow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.

The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.

4. Air intake/Air recirculation
The intake of exterior air prevents the
formation of mist on the windscreen and
side windows.
The recirculation of interior air prevents
exterior odours and smoke from enter-
ing the passenger compartment.
Return to exterior air intake mode as
soon as possible to avoid deterioration
of the air quality and prevent misting.

When the engine is cold, to prevent
too great a distribution of cold air,
the air fl ow will only reach its opti-
mum level gradually.
In cold weather, it favours the distri-
bution of warm air to the windscreen,
the side windows and the footwells
only. On entering the vehicle, if the in-
terior temperature is much colder
or warmer than the comfort value,
there is no need to alter the value
displayed in order to obtain the re-
quired level of comfort. The system
corrects the temperature differ-
ence automatically and as quickly
as possible.

The air conditioning can only operate
with the engine running.
The driver and his front pas-
senger can each set the
temperature to suit their re-
quirements.

)
Turn dial 2
or 3
to the left to reduce
the value or to the right to increase it.
A setting around 21 enables you to
obtain an optimum level of comfort.
Depending on your requirements, a set-
ting between 18 and 24 is usual.
In addition, it is recommended that you
avoid a left/right setting difference of
more than 3.

4. Automatic visibility programme
The automatic comfort pro-
gramme may not be suffi cient
to quickly demist or defrost
the windscreen and side win-
dows (humidity, several pas-
sengers, ice...).


)
In this case, select the automatic
visibility programme.
The system automatically controls the
air conditioning, the air fl ow and the air
intake and provides optimum distribu-
tion of the ventilation to the windscreen
and side windows.
