Changing a memorised speed
To memorise a speed higher than the
previous one, there are two options:
Without using the accelerator:

 press button 3 ;
A brief press increases by 1 mph (1 km/h).
A maintained press increases in steps
of 5 mph (5 km/h).
Using the accelerator:

 exceed the memorised speed until
the required speed is reached,

 press button 2 or 3 .
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one:

 press button 2 ;
A brief press decreases by 1 mph
(1 km/h).
A maintained press decreases in steps
of 5 mph (5 km/h).
Reactivating the memorised speed
After cancellation, press button
4 . Your
vehicle will return to the last memorised
speed. The display indicates (e.g. at
70 mph (110 km/h)): Cancelling the memorised speed

 When the vehicle is stationary, af-
ter the ignition has been switched
off, the system no longer stores
any speed.
Operating check
In the event of a cruise control malfunc-
tion, the memorised speed is erased,
the dashes fl ash for a few seconds:
Do not use the cruise control
on slippery roads or in heavy
traffi c.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have
the system checked. This prevents the vehicle speed ex-
ceeding the speed programmed by
the driver (minimum speed of 18 mph
(30 km/h)).

The operations must be carried out:
- while stationary, with the engine
running,

or
- while the vehicle is moving.
Speed limiter function
To prevent the mat from becoming
caught under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
- never fi t one mat on top of another.

BONNET
Closing

 Lower the bonnet and release it at
the end of its travel.

 Check that it is locked.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
(DIESEL)
If you should run out of fuel, it is nec-
essary to re-prime the circuit.
If the engine does not start after
15 seconds, repeat the repriming ope-
ration.
Opening

 Pull the lever, located on the left
beneath the dashboard, down-
wards.

 Lift the catch and raise the bonnet.
Bonnet struts open the bonnet and
keep it open.
2 litre 16V HDI engine
- fi ll the fuel tank with at least fi ve li- tres of diesel,
- unclip the style cover to gain ac- cess to the repriming pump,
- unscrew the degas screw,
- squeeze and release the manual repriming pump until diesel is seen
escaping via the degas screw,
- retighten the degas screw,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
2.7 litre 24V V6 HDI engine
- fi ll the fuel tank with at least fi ve li-tres of diesel,
- switch on the ignition and wait 15 seconds before operating the
starter.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
There are two marks on
the dipstick:

A = maximum
Never fi 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.
Dipstick
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
The level must always be between the
DANGER and MAXIMUM marks in the
reservoir.
If the level drops substantially, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer immediately.
Windscreen and headlamp wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we advise that you use prod-
ucts recommended by PEUGEOT
(reservoir capacity 4 litres or 6.5 litres
with headlamp wash).
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer's requirements. Fluid change:
- must be carried out according
to the manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
- use fl uids recommended by the manufacturer, which fulfi l DOT4
standards.
Used oil
Prevent used oil from coming
into prolonged contact with
the skin.
Brake and clutch fl uid is harmful to
health and very corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake and
clutch fl uid or coolant into drains or
onto the ground.
Power steering reservoir

 Open the reservoir, with the engine
cold at ambient temperature. The
level should always be above the
MINI mark and close to the MAXI
mark.
Oil level

 Check the level regularly and top
up between changes.
Carry out this check with the vehicle
level, engine cold, using the oil level
gauge on the instrument panel or the
dipstick. Characteristics of the fl uid
For best quality cleaning and to pre-
vent freezing, this fl uid must not be
topped up or replaced with water.

CHECKS Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel
is too great or there is a re-
duction in the performance of the
system, the handbrake should be ad-
justed. Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT or
products of equivalent quality
and specifi cation.
To ensure best performance from
components as important as the pow-
er steering and the braking system,
PEUGEOT selects and offers specifi c
products.
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, high pressure washing of the en-
gine compartment is strictly prohibited .

In order to check the main levels
and certain components, in accord-
ance with the manufacturer's servi-
cing schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corres-
pond to your vehicle's engine. Battery
At the start of winter, have
your battery checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Have the fi lter elements re-
placed regularly. If you drive
in dusty conditions, change them
twice as often .
Particulate emission filter - Additive reservoir (Diesel)
Maintenance of the particulate emis-
sion fi lter and fi lling of the additive
reservoir must be carried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on
the style of driving, in particu-
lar for vehicles which are used in town,
over short distances.
Manual gearbox
This does not need an oil change.
Have the level checked, according to
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Automatic gearbox
This does not need an oil change. Have
the level checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer, according to the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
Oil filter
Change the fi lter regularly, in accord-
ance with the servicing schedule.
It may be necessary to check
the thickness of the pads,
even between services.
Disc wear condition
For any information relating to check-
ing of the disc wear condition, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer.

TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...
We recommend the use of original
PEUGEOT towbars and their harnesses
which have been tested and approved
from the design stage of your vehicle and
that you entrust the fi tting of the towbar to
a PEUGEOT dealer.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a PEUGEOT
dealer, it is imperative that it is fi tted us-
ing the electrical pre-equipment installed
at the rear of the vehicle, in accordance
with the manufacturer's instructions.
Note: in certain cases of par-
ticularly arduous use (towing
the maximum load in high
temperatures on a steep
slope), the engine automatically lim-
its its power and selects the appropri-
ate automatic gearbox gear in manual
mode. In this case, cutting off the air
conditioning allows the engine power
to be recovered, and therefore the
towing capacity to be increased. Automatic adjustment
To avoid causing a nuisance to other
road users, this system automatical-
ly corrects the height of the beam of
xenon bulbs in relation to the vehicle
load after approximately 2 minutes.
The driver is then assured of having
optimum lighting.
Driving advice

Distribution of loads: distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heavi-
est loads are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight is close
to the maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it.
Lighting

Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle (label on the central
door pillar on the driver's side) and of
the trailer towed, observing the recom-
mended pressure.
If the coolant temperature
warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible.
In the case of vehicles fi tted with an
HDI engine, it is advisable, following
intensive use (towing on a motorway,
prolonged driving, ...), to leave the en-
gine running at idle for approximately
20 seconds before switching off the
ignition. This limits any increase in the
temperature of the engine after it has
been switched off.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.

Brakes: towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually.

Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.

Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope in-
creases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
