Manual operation
If you wish, you can make a different
choice from that offered by the sys-
tem by changing a setting. The other
functions will still be controlled auto-
matically. Pressing the "AUTO" but-
ton returns the system to completely
automatic operation.
Press this button to stop air
cooling.
Avoid prolonged use of this
mode (risk of condensation,
odour, humidity).
Press this button again as soon as
possible to return to automatic op-
eration of the air conditioning. The
symbol "A/C" is displayed.
6. Air distribution adjustment Pressing this button sev-
eral times in succession
enables the air l ow to be
directed in turn towards:
- the windscreen and side windows (de-icing or demisting),
- the windscreen, the side windows and the footwells,
- the footwells,
- the centre vents, the side vents and the footwells,
- the centre and side vents. 7. Air l ow adjustment
Press the
"small fan" or "large fan"
button respectively to decrease or in-
crease the l ow of air.
The air l ow symbol, the fan, i lls pro-
gressively in relation to the value re-
quired.
8. Air intake/Air recirculation 9. Demisting the rear screen and
the mirrors

10. Switching the system off
Press the "small fan" button of the
air l ow 7 until the fan symbol disap-
pears.
This action switches off all of the
functions of the air conditioning sys-
tem, with the exception of the demist-
ing of the rear screen 9 .
Temperature related comfort is no
longer guaranteed but a slight l ow of
air, due to the movement of the vehi-
cle, can still be felt.
Pressing the "large fan" button of
the air l ow 7 again or the AUTO but-
ton reactivates the system with the
values set before it was switched off.
Press this button for re-
circulation of the interior
air. The air recirculation
symbol
8 is displayed.
Air recirculation enables the
passenger compartment to be isolat-
ed from exterior odours and smoke.
Avoid prolonged recirculation of inte-
rior air (risk of condensation and de-
terioration of the air quality).
As soon as possible, press this but-
ton again to permit the intake of out-
side air and prevent condensation.
5. Air conditioning On/Off
Press this button to demist
the rear screen and the ex-
terior mirrors. The button
9
indicator light comes on.
Demisting switches off au-
tomatically to prevent an
excessive consumption of current.
It is possible to stop operation of the
demisting before it is switched off
automatically by pressing the button
again.

CHECKS
CHECKING THE LEVELS
There are two marks on
the dipstick:

A = maximum
Never i ll past this mark.

B = minimum
To maintain the reliability of
engines and emission control
systems, the use of additives
in engine oil is prohibited.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require-
ments.
Note: the coolant does not need to
be changed.
Dipstick Cooling system
Use the l uid recommended by the
manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. This fan can ope-
rate with the ignition off.

In the case of vehicles i tted with
a particle emission i lter, the fan
can operate after the vehicle has
stopped, even when the engine is
cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level. Windscreen and headlamp
wash level
Diesel additive level (Diesel
with particle emission filter)
If the service warning light comes on,
accompanied by a message and an
audible signal, this indicates a low
diesel additive level.
This additive must be topped up.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
Brake fluid level
Oil level
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet. The level should always be
above the MIN mark and clo-
se to the MAX mark. Power steering reservoir
Remove the style trim * (see § "Chan-
ging a bulb - Front lights").
Open the reservoir, with the engine
at ambient temperature. The level
should always be above the MIN.
mark and close to the MAX. mark.
For best quality cleaning
and for your safety, we
would advise that you use
products recommended by
PEUGEOT.
Replacement must be car-
ried out according to the
manufacturerw's servicing
schedule.
Use l uids recommended by
the manufacturer, which fuli l DOT4
standards.
Check the level regularly and
top up between changes.
The maximum consump-
tion is 0.5 l per 600 miles
(1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the oil level gauge
on the instrument panel or the dipstick.
* According to engine.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION Driving advice
Distribution of loads:
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest items are as close
as possible to the axle and the nose
weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Cooling:
towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled,
its cooling capacity is not dependent
on the engine speed.
To lower the engine speed, reduce
your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long
slope depends on the gradient and
the outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the cool-
ant temperature.
If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible. Tyres:
check the tyre pressures of the tow-
ing vehicle and of the trailer, observ-
ing the recommended pressures.
Braking:
towing increases the braking dis-
tance.
Lights:
check the electrical signalling on the
trailer.
Side wind:
take into account the increased sen-
sitivity to side wind.
CARAVAN, A BOAT, ETC.
Your vehicle is primarily designed
for transporting people and luggage
but it may also be used for towing a
trailer.
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their har-
nesses that have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle and that the i tting of the
towbar is entrusted to a PEUGEOT
dealer.
If the towbar is not i tted by a
PEUGEOT dealer, it is imperative
that it is i tted using the electrical
pre-equipment located at the rear of
the vehicle in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Driving with a trailer subjects the tow-
ing vehicle to more signii cant stress
and its driver must be particularly
careful.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum
towing load must be reduced by 10 %
and so on for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
The rear parking assistance function
will be disarmed automatically when
a towbar is i tted.
