PRACTICAL INFORMATION
If the vehicle is fi tted with tyre under-
infl ation detection, the tyre under-
infl ation warning lamp will remain on
after the wheel has been repaired
until the system is reinitialised by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop. Take care, the bottle of fl uid con-
tains ethylene-glycol. This product
is harmful if swallowed and causes
irritation to the eyes. Keep it out of
reach of children.
The expiry date of the fl uid is indi-
cated on the base of the bottle.
The bottle is designed for a sin-
gle use; even if only partly used, it
must be replaced.
After use, do not discard the bot-
tle into the environment, take it to a
PEUGEOT dealer or an authorised
waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle
of sealant product, available from
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
)
Connect the compressor's electric
plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket
again.

)
Start the vehicle again and leave the
engine running.

)
Adjust the pressure using the
compressor (to infl ate: switch A
in
position "1"
; to defl ate: switch A
in
position "0"
and press button B
),
in accordance with the vehicle's
tyre pressure label (located on the
door aperture on the driver's side),
then remember to check that the
leak is plugged correctly (no further
loss of pressure after several miles
[kilometres]).

)
Remove the compressor, then store
the whole kit.

)
Visit a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop as soon
as possible to have the tyre
repaired or replaced by a
technician.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
12 V BATTERY





Access to the battery

The battery is located under the bonnet.
To gain access to it:


)
open the bonnet using the interior
release lever, then the exterior
safety catch,

)
secure the bonnet stay,

)
remove the plastic cover on the (+)
terminal.






The presence of this label, in par-
ticular with the Stop & Start system,
indicates the use of a 12 V lead-
acid battery with special technology
and specifi cation; the involvement
of a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop is essential when replac-
ing or disconnecting the battery.

After refi tting the battery, the Stop &
Start system will only be active after
a continuous period of immobilisa-
tion of the vehicle, a period which
depends on the climatic conditions
and the state of charge of the bat-
tery (up to about 8 hours).
Procedure for starting the engine using
another battery or charging a discharged
battery.











Before doing any work
Immobilise the vehicle: apply the
parking brake, put the gearbox into
neutral (or position P
if your vehicle
has an automatic gearbox), then
switch of the ignition.
Check that all electrical systems
are off.
Do not reverse the polarity and use
only a 12 V charger.
Do not disconnect the terminals
while the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals fi rst.

Ensure that the battery posts and
terminals are clean. If covered in
sulphate (white or green deposits),
remove and clean them.

The batteries contain harmful sub-
stances such as sulphuric acid and
lead. They must be disposed of in
accordance with regulations and
must not, in any circumstances, be
discarded with household waste.
Take used remote control batteries
and vehicle batteries to a special
collection point.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Do not apply excessive force on the
tab as locking will not be possible if
the clip is not positioned correctly;
start the procedure again.













Starting using another battery

When your vehicle's battery is dis-
charged, the engine can be started using
a slave battery (external or on another
vehicle) and jump leads.

Disconnecting the (+) cable


)
Raise the locking tab D
fully to
release the cable terminal E
.


Reconnecting the (+) cable


)
Position the open clip E
of the
cable on the positive post (+) of the
battery.

)
Press vertically on the clip E
to
position it correctly on the battery.

)
Lock the clip by spreading the
positioning lug and then lowering
the tab D
.
First check that the slave battery
has a nominal voltage of 12 V and
a capacity at least equal to that of
the discharged battery.
Do not try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal
when the engine is running.


)
Connect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of the fl at battery A
,
then to the positive terminal (+) of
the slave battery B
.

)
Connect one end of the green or
black cable to the negative terminal
(-) of the slave battery B
(or earth
point on the other vehicle).

)
Connect the other end of the green
or black cable to the earth point C

on the broken down vehicle (or on
the engine mounting).

)
Start the vehicle with the good
battery and leave it running for a few
minutes.
)
Operate the starter on the broken
down vehicle and let the engine run
If the engine does not start straight
away, switch off the ignition and wait
a few moments before trying again.

)
Wait until the engine returns to idle
then disconnect the cables in the
reverse order.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
VERY COLD CLIMATE SCREEN *

Removable protective screen which
prevents the accumulation of snow at
the radiator cooling fan.

Fitting



)
Offer up the very cold climate screen
to the front of the lower section of
the front bumper.

)
Press around its edge to engage its
fi xing clips one by one.

Do not forget to remove the very
cold climate screen:


- when the ambient temperature
exceeds 10 °C,

- when towing,

-
at speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h).



Removal



)
Use a screwdriver as a lever to
release each fi xing clip in turn. 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 towed load on a long in-
cline depends on the gradient and the
ambient temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the cool-
ant temperature.

Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a
long mountain type of descent, the use
of engine braking is recommended.

Tyres


)
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.

Lighting


)
Check the electrical lighting and
signalling on the trailer.
The rear parking sensors will be de-
activated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.



)
If the warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp come
on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
