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 refit 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 filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of operations recommended in the warranty and maintenance record.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Warning lamps
When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires action on the part of the driver. Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated further by reading the associated message in the screen. If you encounter any problems, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Monitoring
Warning / indicator lampStateCauseAction / Observations
Engine oil pressure fixed. There is a fault with the engine lubrication system. You must stop as soon it is safe to do so. Park, switch off the ignition and contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Battery charge fixed. The battery charging circuit has a fault (dirty or loose terminals, slack or cut alternator belt, ...).
The warning lamp should go off when the engine is started. If it does not go off, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Low fuel level fixed with the needle in the red zone. There remains approximately 5 litresof fuel in the tank. At this point, you begin to use the fuel reserve.
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of fuel. This warning lamp will come on every time the ignition is switched on, until a sufficient addition of fuel is made. Fuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres . Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel, as this could damage the emission control and injection systems.

Practical information
Advice on care and maintenance
Recommendations on the care and maintenance your vehicle are given in the warranty and maintenance record.
Matt paint
We recommend the use of a high pressure jet wash, or at least a water hose with a high output. We recommend that the vehicle be rinsed using de-ionised water. Use only a microfibre cloth to dry the vehicle. It must be clean and used without heavy pressure. Lightly wipe off any fuel stains present on the bodywork using a soft cloth, then leave to dry. From the range of cleaning and maintenance products in the "TECHNATURE" range recommended and approved by PEUGEOT, use only the insect remover and car shampoo, which are the only products to be used on the bodywork. The insect remover can also be used to remove
minor marks (for example: finger marks...). Always have paint repairs done by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If you vehicle is finished with a clear matt lacquer, please observe the following recommendations to avoid damaging the paintwork by the use of an inappropriate
cleaning procedures. These recommendations are also valid for alloy road wheels finished with clear matt lacquer.
Never clean the vehicle without water. Never wash your vehicle in an automatic roller brush car wash. Never polish the vehicle body, nor the alloy wheels. Doing this will make the paintwork shiny. Do not use paint cleaners, abrasive products or paint polishing or preserving products (such as wax, for example) on the paintwork. These products are only suitable for bright finishes. Application of these products on vehicles with a matt finish will seriously damage the paint sur face of the vehicle, giving rise to irreversible shiny or stained areas.
Never use a high pressure jet wash with a lance fitted with a brush, this may scratch the paintwork. Never select a wash programme that finishes with a hot wax cycle.

Technical data
Identifi cation markings
A. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
under the bonnet. This number is engraved on the bodywork near the damper support.
The tyre pressures must be checked when the tyres are cold, at least once a month.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel consumption. B. Vehicle identification Number (VIN) on the windscreen lower crossmember. This number is indicated on a self-adhesive label which is visible through the windscreen.
C. Manufacturer's label.
The VIN is indicated on a self-destroying label affixed to the middle pillar, on the passenger's side.
D. Tyre/paint label. This label is fitted to the middle pillar, on the driver's side.
It bears the following information: - the tyre inflation pressures with and without load, - the tyre sizes, - the inflation pressure of the spare wheel, - the paint colour code.
Various visible markings for the identification of your vehicle.
