Instrument panel display After switching on the ignition, three functions are shown in succession: - service indicator (see corresponding section),- engine oil level indicator (Diesel),- total distance recorder/total and trip distances.Note:the total and trip distances are displayed for 30 seconds when the ignition
is switched off, on opening the driver's door, as well as on locking and unlocking the vehicle. Engine oil level (Diesel) When the ignition is switched on, the engine oil level is indicated for approximately 10 seconds, after the servicing information.
Maximum Note:a surplus of oil can cause damage to the
engine. Minimum Check the level with the dipstick and top it up. The level indicated is only correct if the vehiclehas been on stable, level ground, with theengine stopped, for 10 minutes. Oil level gauge fault The 6 segments flash to indicate a fault in the oil level gauge. There is a risk the engine will be damaged.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Front and side air bags warning light
The light will come on for a fewseconds when the ignition is swit-ched on. With the engine running, illumination of this warning light, accompaniedby an audible signal, indicates afault in the air bags.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Coolant temperature indicator
- needle in zone (A), the tempera-
ture is correct,
- needle in zone (B), the tempera-
ture is too high. The central STOP
warning light flashes.
You must stop.

YOUR PARTNER IN DETAIL

TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP) These systems are linked and
complement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, byacting on the brakes of the drivewheels and on the engine. It alsoallows the directional stability of the vehicle to be improved on acceleration. If there is a variation between the trajectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESPsystem automatically acts on theengine and the brake of one or morewheels, in order to put the vehicleback on course. Operating check
When a malfunction of thesystems occurs, the switchlight flashes and the war-ning light comes on, accom-panied by an audible signal
and the message "ESP/ASR not
functioning" on the multifunction
display.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to have the systems checked.Disarming the ASR/ESP systems In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck
in snow, on soft ground, ...), it may
be advisable to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems, so that the wheels canmove freely and regain grip.  Press the "ESP OFF" switch,
located on the central section of the fascia.
The switch lights up and thewarning light comes on: the
ASR and ESP systems aredisarmed.
These are triggered again:  automatically if the ignition is
switched off,
 automatically above 30 mph
(50 km/h),
 manually by pressing the switchagain.
Operation of the ASR and ESP systems
The warning light flashes if
the ASR or ESP is activated.
The ESP/ASR systems offer exceptional safety innormal driving, but thisshould not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive athigh speed. The correct functioning of these systems depends on observationof the manufacturer's recommen-dations regarding the wheels(tyres and rims), the braking com-ponents, the electronic compo-nents, and the PEUGEOT assem-bly and operation procedures. After an impact, have the systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

BATTERY
To charge the battery using a battery charger:
- Disconnect the battery,
- 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.
To start the vehicle from another battery:
- Connect the red cable to the positive (+) terminals of the two batteries,
- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) terminal of the slave battery,
- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an earth point on the broken down vehicle as far as possible from the battery.
Operate the starter, let the engine run.
Wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
- Never disconnect a terminal when the engine is running.
- Never charge a battery without first disconnecting the terminals.
- After every reconnection of the battery, switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to allow the electronic systems to be initialised. If slight difficulties are experienced after this, please
contact a PEUGEOT dealer. A flat battery will preventthe engine from starting.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery if the vehicle is not to
be used for a period of more than one month.
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION After the engine has stopped, with the key in the accessories position, certain
functions (windscreen wiper, electricwindows, courtesy lights, audio equipment etc.) can only be used forthirty minutes, to prevent discharging
the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the message "Eco mode active" appears
on the multifunction display and the
active functions are put on standby.

TOWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT etc.
Only use original PEUGEOT tow bars that have been tested andapproved from the design stage of
your vehicle. The tow bar must be
fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggagebut it may also be used for towing a
trailer. Driving with a trailer subjects the towing vehicle to more significantstress and its driver must be particu-larly careful. Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance.Above 1000 metres, the maximumtowing load must be reduced by 10% and so on for every 1000 metres of altitude.Driving advice Distribution of loads :
Distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to theaxle and the nose weight approachesthe 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 dependenton the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the engine speed and reduceyour speed. The maximum towing load on a long slope depends on the gradient andthe outside temperature. In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature. If the warning light comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the engineas soon as possible. Tyres :
Check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle and of the trailer,observing the recommended pressures. Braking : Towing increases the
braking distance.Lights : Check the electrical signalling
on the trailer.Side wind : Take into acount the
increased sensitivity to side wind.
