Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and electronic
stability programme (ESP)


Operating check
Operation of the ASR and
ESP systems

When one of these two systems
is operating, this warning lamp
comes on.
If a fault occurs with the s
ystems, this
warning lamp comes on.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop to have thesystems checked.
These systems are linked and supplement
the AB
S.
The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the
wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes of
the driving wheelsand on the engine. It also allows 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 ESP system automatically acts on the brake of one or more wheels and on theengine to put the vehicle back on course, within
the limits of the laws of physics.
The ASR/ESP systems offer exceptional safety during normal driving, but this should not encourage the driver to take extra risks or drive athigh speed. Correct operation of these systemsdepends on obser vation of thema-nufacturer's recommendations regar-ding the wheels (tyres andrims), the braking components and the electronic components as well as therepair procedures use by a PEUGEOT dealer or qualified workshop.
After an impact, have these systemschecked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Towing the vehicle
)
Install the towing bar. )
Put the gear lever into neutral (position Nfor the 2 Tronic gearbox).
)Take the removable towing eye stowed in
the spare wheel, under the boot carpet.
)Unclip the plastic cover. )Fully screw in the towing eye.

General
recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in your country.Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is higher than that of the towedvehicle.The driver must stay at the wheel of thetowed vehicle. Driving on motorways and fast roads is prohibited when towing.When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an approved towing bar; rope and strapsare prohibited.When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any power assistance for braking or steering.In the following cases, you must always call on a professional recovery service:- vehicle broken down on a motor way
or fast road,- when it is not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock thesteering, or release the parkingbrake,- towing with only two wheels on theground, - where there is no approved towingbar available...

Your vehicle can only be towed at the front.
Never use the radiator crossmember.
To w i ng with fours wheels on theroad must be carried out at very low speed over a very shor t distance (in accordance with the legislation in force).
In all other cases, your vehicle must betranspor ted on a trailer.

Failure to obser ve this instruction maylead to damage to cer tain components (braking, transmission, ...) and the absence of braking assistance when theengine is started.
)
Unlock the steering by turning the key to
the first position and release the parkingbrake. ) Switch on the hazard warning lamps onboth vehicles.

Checking levels
There are two marks on thedipstick:A= maximum
If you fill past this mark, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. B= minimum
Never allow the level to fallbelow this mark.
Dipstick
Brake fluid level

The brake fluid level should be close to the
"MA X" mark. If it is not, check the brake pad
w
ear. If a level drops si
gnificantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Check all of these levels re
gularly and top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns).
Oil level
The check is carried out either when the ignition is switched on using the oil level indicator on the instrument panel, or using the
dipstick.
This manual check will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine has
been off for more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two ser vices (or oil changes). PEUGEOT recommends that you checkthe level, and top up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms). After topping up the oil, the check whenswitching on the ignition with the oillevel indicator in the instrument panelis not valid during the 30 minutes after topping up.


Engine oil change

Refer to the servicing booklet for details of the
interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliabilit
y of the engine
and emission control system, the use of
additives in the engine oil is prohibited.

Oil specifi cation

The oil must be the correct grade for your engine and conform to the manufacturer'srecommendations.



Changing the fl uid

Refer to the servicing booklet for details of the
interval for this operation.

Screenwash fluid level
Top up the level when necessary.
Coolant level
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.



Fluid specifi cation

The brake fluid must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations and meet the
D
OT4 standard.


The coolant level should be close to the "MAX" mark but should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan. This can
operate with the ignition off.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised, wait at least one hour after switching off the engine before carrying out anywork.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped, remove thecap and top up the level.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be changed.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.









Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids
with the skin.
M
ost of these fluids are harmful to health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids intosewers or onto the ground.Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop (France) or to an authorised waste disposal site.

Brake wear depends on the st
yle
of driving, par ticularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over shor t
distances. It ma
y be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked
, even between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are worn. For information on checkin

disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
