CHECKS

Particle emission filter (Diesel)

As soon as the traffi c condi-
tions permit, regenerate the
fi lter by driving at a speed of
at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the
warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this in-
dicates a low additive level.

Brake disc wear














Brake pads

Brake wear depends on the
style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It
may be necessary to have the
condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
For information on check-
ing brake disc wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.







6-speed electronic gearbox

The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the checking in-
terval for this component.
















Electric parking brake

This system does not require any routine ser-
vicing. However, in the event of a problem,
have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


For more information, refer to
the "Electric parking brake -
Operating faults" section.






The 100% electric mode is not available
during regeneration of the particle emis-
sions fi lter. The start of saturation of the
particle fi lter is indicated by
the temporary illumination
of this warning lamp accom-
panied by a message in the
multi-function screen.

On a new vehicle, the fi rst particle
fi lter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you
may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or the environment.






















Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT or
products of equivalent quality
and specifi cation.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as the braking sys-
tem, PEUGEOT selects and offers
very specifi c products.
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compartment is
strictly prohibited
.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Repair procedure



)
Switch off the ignition.

)
Turn the selector A
to the
"sealant" position.

)
Check that the switch B
is
in position "O"
.

Avoid removing any foreign
bodies which have penetrated
into the tyre.
Take care, this product is
harmful (e.g. ethylene-glycol,
colophony...) if swallowed and
causes irritation to the eyes.
Keep it out of reach of children.
1. Sealing

)
Uncoil the white pipe G
fully.

)
Unscrew the cap from the white
pipe.

)
Connect the white pipe to the valve
of the tyre to be repaired.
)
Connect the compressor's electric
plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket.

)
Start the vehicle and leave the en-
gine running.


Do not start the compressor
before connecting the white
pipe to the tyre valve: the seal-
ant product would be expelled
through the pipe.

Page 175 of 284

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
173

If after around 5 to 7 minutes
the pressure is not attained,
this indicates that the tyre is
not repairable; contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop for as-
sistance.
)
Switch on the compressor by mov-
ing the switch B
to position "I"
until
the tyre pressure reaches 2.0 bars.
The sealant is injected into the tyre
under pressure; do not disconnect
the pipe from the valve during this
operation (risk of splashing).
)
Remove the kit and screw the cap
back on the white pipe.
Take care to avoid staining your ve-
hicle with traces of fl uid. Keep the kit
to hand.

)
Drive immediately for approximate-
ly three miles (fi ve kilometres), at
reduced speed (between 15 and
35 mph (20 and 60 km/h)), to plug
the puncture.

)
Stop to check the repair and the tyre
pressure using the kit.

dance with the vehicle's tyre pressure
label (located on the left hand door
aperture).

*
According to country of sale.

Page 179 of 284

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
177

Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where
it does not block traffi c: the
ground must be level, stable and
non-slippery ground.
Apply the parking brake unless it
has been programmed to automatic
mode, switch off the ignition and put
the gear lever in position R
to lock
the wheels.
Check that the braking warning lamp
and the P
warning lamp on the parking
brake control come on.
If necessary, place a chock under the
wheel diagonally opposite the wheel
to be changed.
The occupants must get out of the ve-
hicle and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.










Removing a wheel

List of operations


)
Remove the central wheel trim us-
ing the tool 3a
or remove the covers
from each of the bolts using tool 3b
.

)

cient space between the wheel and
the ground to admit the spare (not
punctured) wheel easily.
