Particle filter system (Diesel)

An addition to the catalytic converter, this
filter makes an active contribution to the
preservation of air quality by the retaining
of the unburnt pollutant particles. Black
exhaust fumes are thus no longer emitted.
This filter, fitted to the exhaust system,
accumulates particles of soot. The engine
control unit manages the automatic
periodic elimination of the soot particles
(regeneration).
The regeneration procedure is invoked
according to the quantity of particles
accumulated and the driving conditions
of the vehicle. During this phase, you
may notice some unusual phenomena -
increased idling speed, cooling fan running,
increase in smoke and higher exhaust gas
temperature - which does not affect the
operation of the vehicle or the environment. After prolonged idling or driving at very low
speeds, you may occasionally notice water
vapour being emitted from the exhaust when
accelerating. This is of no consequence
to the running of the vehicle or to the
environment.
Because of the higher exhaust gas
temperature resulting from the normal
operation of the particle filter, it is
recommended that you do not park the
vehicle over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, ...) so as to avoid
any risk of fire.
Saturation / Regeneration

Operating fault
If this alert persists, do not ignore the
warning; it indicates that a fault has occurred
in the exhaust / particle filter system.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
This alert tells you that the particle filter
is starting to fill up (in conditions of urban
driving of exceptionally long duration: low
speeds, traffic jams etc.)
To regenerate the filter, it is advised to drive
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions
and the law permit, at a speed of at least
40 mph (around 60 km/h), with an engine
speed above 2 000 rpm for about fifteen
minutes (until the warning lamp and/or the
message disappears).
If possible, avoid switching off the engine
before the end of regeneration of the
filter; repeated interruptions could cause
premature deterioration of the engine oil. It
is not recommended to end regeneration of
the filter with the vehicle stationary. If there is risk of blockage of the
filter, this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel.

Innovation at the service of performance
The TOTAL Research and Development teams
develop lubricants for PEUGEOT which satisfy the
requirements of the latest technical innovations
incorporated in PEUGEOT vehicles.
This ensures that you obtain the best performance
and the maximum engine life.

Reduced exhaust emissions
TOTAL lubricants are formulated to optimise the
efficiency of engines and the protection of the
emissions post-treatment systems. It is crucial to
observe the servicing recommendations made by
PEUGEOT to ensure correct operation.

Fuel

Low fuel level

When the fuel tank level E
(Empty) is reached, this warning
lamp comes on. At this moment,
you have enough fuel left to
drive approximately 30 miles (50 km)
,
depending on the driving conditions, the
engine and the profile of the road. Fill up
without delay to avoid running out of fuel. The fuel tank must be filled with the engine
off.


- Open the fuel filler flap.

- Support the cap with one hand.

- With the other hand, insert the key, then
turn it anticlockwise.

- Remove the cap and hook it onto the
clip located on the inside of the flap.
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could
cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 90
litres.


- After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap
and close the flap.

FUEL SYSTEM CUT-OFF

In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle's electrical supply.
FILLING WITH FUEL

Fuel tanks of different capacities,
60 and 125 litres, may be fitted. Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.
Restore the supply by pressing:


- the first button, located under the glove
box.

- the second button, located in the battery
compartment under the driver's floor.


In low temperatures
In mountainous and/or cold areas, it is
advisable to use a "winter" type fuel suited
to low or minus temperatures.






With Stop & Start, never refuel with
the system in STOP mode; you must
switch off the ignition with the key.

Charging the battery using a charger



- disconnect the battery located in the
front left floor,

- follow the instructions for use given by
the battery charger manufacturer,

- reconnect starting with the negative (-)
terminal,

- check that the terminals and connectors
are clean. If they are covered with
sulphate (white or greenish deposit),
disconnect them and clean them.
The charging operation must be carried
out in a ventilated area away from naked
flames or any possible sources of sparks to
eliminate the risk of explosion and fire.
Do not attempt to charge a frozen battery: it
must first be thawed to eliminate the risks of
explosion. If the battery has frozen, before
charging it have it checked by a specialist
who will check that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the
container is not cracked, which could mean
that there is a risk of a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.
Proceed with a slow charge charge at low
current for a maximum pf about 24 hours to
avoid damaging the battery.

BATTERY
Starting from another battery



- connect the red cable to the metal
point 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
,

- connect the other end of the green or
black cable to the earth point C
on your
vehicle,

- operate the starter, let the engine run,

- wait for the engine to return to idle, then
disconnect the cables.

PUNCTURE REPAIR KIT
Procedure



- Apply the parking brake. Unscrew the
tyre valve cap, remove the filling hose B
and screw the ring E
onto the tyre valve,
- start the engine,

- insert the connector G
into the nearest
power socket on the vehicle,

- switch on the compressor by placing the
switch F
in position I
(on),

- inflate the tyre to a pressure of 4 bars.
To obtain a more accurate reading, you are
advised to check the pressure value on the
pressure gauge H
, with the compressor off.

- check that the switch F
on the
compressor is in position 0 (off), This temporary puncture repair kit is located
at the front of the passenger compartment.
It consists of:


- a cartridge A
, containing the sealant
fluid, equipped with:



a filling hose B
,


a sticker C
indicating "max. 80 km/h",
which the driver must affix in full view
(on the dashboard) after repairing the
tyre,

- a quick guide to use of the repair kit,

- a compressor D
equipped with a
pressure gauge and unions,

- adaptors, for the inflation of various
items.
