Limit the causes of excess
consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bottom
of the boot, as close as possible to the
rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle
and reduce wind resistance (roof bars,
roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use
a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after
use.

At the end of winter, remove snow
tyres and refi t your summer tyres.



Observe the recommendations
on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly,
when cold, referring to the label in the
door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the
tyres on any trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and
observe the schedule of operations
recommended by the manufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

ACCESS
MISFUEL PREVENTION(DIESEL) *

Mechanical device which prevents fi lling
the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It
avoids the risk of engine damage that can
result from fi lling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the fi ller neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the
fi ller cap is removed.


Operation

When a petrol fi ller nozzle is introduced
into the fuel fi ller neck of your Diesel
vehicle, it comes into contact with the
fl ap. The system remains closed and
prevents fi lling.

Do not persist but introduce a Diesel
type fi ller nozzle.

It remains possible to use a fuel
can to fi ll the tank.
In order to ensure a good fl ow of
fuel, do not place the nozzle of the
fuel can in direct contact with the
fl ap of the misfuel prevention de-
vice and pour slowly.


Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may
be different in other countries, the
presence of the misfuel prevention
device may make refuelling impos-
sible.
Before travelling abroad, we rec-
ommend that you check with the
PEUGEOT dealer network, wheth-
er your vehicle is suitable for the
fuel pumps in the country in which
you want to travel.
