fuel pressure Peugeot 208 2017 Owner's Manual

105
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:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin filter, etc.) and
obser ve the schedule of operations in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes
polluting. Visit as soon as possible a
PEUGEOT or a qualified workshop to make
your vehicle’s level of nitrogen oxide emissions
compliant to the standard.
When filling the tank, do not continue after the
3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid 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.
Driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations and remain
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your
hands on the wheel so that you are ready to
react at any time to any eventuality.
As a safety measure, the driver should only
carry out any operations that require close
attention when the vehicle is stationary.
On a long journey, a break every two hours is
strongly recommended.
In bad weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the
need to brake and increase the distance from
other vehicles.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. There is a risk of poisoning and
death!
In very severe wintry conditions
(temperatures below -23°C), to guarantee
correct operation and the longevity of
the mechanical elements of your vehicle,
engine and gearbox, the engine must be
left running for 4
minutes before driving.

Under-inflation detection
This system automatically monitors the tyre
pressure while driving.
The system monitors the pressure in all four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised after ever y tyre
pressure adjustment or wheel change.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the pressure of one or more
tyres.
The tyre under-inflation detection system
does not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
This system still requires you to check the
tyre inflation pressure (including the spare
wheel) every month as well as before a
long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs
handling, extends braking distances and
causes early tyre wear, particularly in
adverse conditions (heavy loads, high
speeds, long journeys). Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The tyre pressure specifications for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on Identification
markings , including in particular the tyre
pressure label, refer to the corresponding
section.
Tyre pressures should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1
hour or after a journey of less than
6
miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
In the contrary case(hot), add 0.3
bar to
the values indicated on the label.
Under-inflation alert
This is indicated by fixed illumination
of this warning lamp, an audible
signal and, depending on the
equipment installed, a message
displayed on the screen.
F

R

educe speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and sudden braking. The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not be satisfied with just a visual
check.
F
I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment),
or
F
i
f you have a compressor, such as the one
in the temporary puncture repair kit, check
the pressures of the four tyres when cold,
or
F
i
f it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
The alert is kept active until the system is
reinitialised.
The under-inflation alert can only be relied
on if the reinitialisation of the system has
been done with the pressures in the four
tyres correctly adjusted.
F

S
top the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.

Advice on care
General recommendations on the care and
maintenance of your vehicle are given in the
Warranty and Maintenance Record.
Matt paint
If your vehicle is coated with a clear, matt
varnish, it is essential that you take the
following instructions into account to avoid
damaging the paint, following an inappropriate
treatment. These instructions are also valid for
the alloy wheels coated in a clear, matt varnish.
Textured paint
The textured paint reacts to light with variations
of appearance and finish that emphasise the
car's lines and form. This paint coating has
particles that remain visible and create a
unique satin relief effect. Its lightly granulated
texture gives it a surprising feel.Observe the following recommendations
to avoid damaging the paint finish:
-
N ever clean the vehicle without water.
-

N
ever clean your vehicle in an
automatic roller-brush car wash.
-

N
ever select the program with hot wax
finish.
-

N
ever use a high pressure jet washer
fitted with a brush as this may scratch
the paint sur face.
-

N
ever polish the body or the alloy
wheels. This makes the paint bright.
-

D
o not use paint restorers, abrasive
or polishing products, or bright paint
preser vers (wax polish, for example).
These products are only suitable for
bright finishes. Using them on vehicles
finished with matt paint seriously
damages the sur face finish of the
vehicle, resulting in particular in the
appearance of irreversible bright or
stained areas. On the other hand:
-
C hoose a high pressure wash, or at least a
high-flow water jet.
-
R

inse the vehicle with demineralised water.
-

G
ently wipe the body with a clean
microfibre cloth.
-

C
arefully wipe off any fuel spilt on the body
using a soft cloth, then allow to dry.
-

C
lean off minor marks (for example, finger
marks), using the maintenance product
recommended by PEUGEOT.
It is always preferable to have paint
repairs carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Practical information

193
It bears the following information:
- t he name of the manufacturer,
-

t
he European Whole Vehicle Type Approval
number,
-

t
he vehicle identification number (VIN),
-

t
he maximum authorised vehicle weight (the
Gross Vehicle Weight or GV W),
-

t
he maximum authorised vehicle + trailer
weight (the Gross Train Weight or GTW),
-

t
he maximum weight on the front axle,
-

t
he maximum weight on the rear axle.
D. Tyre/paint label.
This label is affixed to the centre pillar on the
driver’s side.
It bears the following information on the tyres:
-

t
he tyre inflation pressures with and without
load,
-

t
he tyre specification, made up of the
dimensions and type as well as the load and
speed indices,
-

t
he spare tyre pressure.
It also indicates the paint colour code. The vehicle may be originally equipped
with tyres with higher load and speed
indices than those indicated on the label,
without affecting inflation pressure.
Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when
cold at least monthly.
The pressures given on the label are valid for
cold tyres. If you have driven for more than
10
minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres)
at more than 30
mph (50 km/h), the tyres will be
warm; in this case 0.3
bar (30 kPa) should be
added to the pressures given on the label.
Never reduce the pressure of a warm tyre.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.
