In the event of a fault with the system, the
indicator lamp in the "ECO OFF" button
flashes for a few moments, then comes on
continuously.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the
vehicle may stall. All of the warning lamps
in the instrument panel come on. It is then
necessary to switch off the ignition and start
the engine again using the key.
Operating fault
The Stop & Start system requires a
12 V battery with a special specification

Deactivation / Manual
reactivation
In certain cases, such as the need to maintain
a comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment, it may be useful to deactivate the
Stop & Start system.
The system can be deactivated at any time, once
the ignition is on.
If the engine is in STOP mode, it then restarts.
The Stop & Start system is reactivated
automatically every time the ignition is switched on.
Opening the bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid the risk of injury related to an
automatic change to START mode.
Driving on flooded roads

Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as Traction
Control) optimises traction to prevent skidding
of the wheels, by acting on the brakes of the
driving wheels and on the engine.
The electronic stability programme acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on the engine
to keep the vehicle on the trajectory required by
the driver, within the limits of the laws of physics.This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel. The ASR /ESP systems offer
exceptional safety in normal driving, but
this should not encourage the driver to
take extra risks or drive at high speed.
The correct functioning of these
systems depends on observation of
the manufacturer's recommendations
regarding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components, the electronic
components and the assembly
and repair procedures used by the
PEUGEOT dealer network.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Operating fault
Illumination of the warning lamp,
accompanid by a message in the
screen indicates a malfunction of
these systems.
Reactivation
These systems are reactivated automatically
every time the ignition is switched of, or from
30 mph (50 km/h).
F
P
ress this button again to reactivate them
manually.
T
he lamp in the button goes off.
The symbol going off in the instrument panel
indicates the reactivation of the ASR and
ESP
systems.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle
which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft
ground, ...), it may be advisable to deactivate
the ASR and ESP systems, so that the wheels
can move freely and regain grip.
Trajectory control systems
Activation
These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event of a grip
or trajectory problem. The display of this symbol indicates
that the ASR and ESP systems are
deactivated.
F
P
ress this button button, located on
the dashboard (driver's side), until the
corresponding symbol appears in the
instrument panel screen. T he lamp in the button comes on.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the ASR /ESP systems
checked.
Coasting with the engine off results in a
loss of power assistance for the steering.

Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the tank is
reached, this warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel.Opening the filler cap may result in an
inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of
the fuel system.
Fuel tank
Capacity of the tank: approximately 50 litres. A label on the inside of the filler flap reminds
you of the type of fuel to use according to your
engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.

Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes
into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.
Misfuel prevention (Diesel)*Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of
engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention device appears when the filler cap is removed.It remains possible to use a fuel can to
fill the tank.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can
in direct contact with the flap of the
misfuel prevention device and pour
s l ow l y.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may
be different in other countries, the
presence of the misfuel prevention
device may make refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we
recommend that you check with the
PEUGEOT dealer network, whether
your vehicle is suitable for the fuel
pumps in the country in which you want
to travel.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have have
the tank drained and refilled with
the correct fuel before you star t
the
engine.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system
that cuts off the supply of fuel in the event of
an
impact.
* Depending on the country of sale.

Starting prevented
Every time the ignition is switched on, the
SERVICE and engine diagnostic warning
lamps come on and the UREA warning lamp
flashes, accompanied by the temporary display
of "NO START IN" and 0 miles or kilometres -
("NO START IN 0 miles" means "Starting
prevented").
To be able to start the engine, you must call on
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. You have exceeded the authorised
driving limit: the starting prevention
system inhibits engine starting.
In the event of a fault with the the SCR emissions control system
In the event of the detection of a fault
The UREA, SERVICE and diagnostic warning
lamps comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of the message
"Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered when driving, when
the fault is detected for the first time, then
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists. During an authorised driving phase
(between 650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)
If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed (after
30 miles (50 km) covered with the permanent
display of the message signalling a fault), the
SERVICE and engine diagnostic warning lamps
come on and the UREA warning lamp flashes,
accompanied by an audible signal and the
temporary display in the instrument panel of
"NO START IN" and a distance, indicating the
remaining range express in miles or kilometres
before engine starting is prevented - (e.g.: "NO
START IN 350 miles" means "Starting will be
prevented in 350 miles").
A system that prevents engine starting is activated automatically from 650 miles (1 100 km) after confirmation of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system. Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after a self diagnosis test of the SCR
emissions control system.
While driving, this display appears every
30
seconds while the fault with the SCR system
persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the ignition.
You should go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise, you will not be able to restart your
engine.

Driving advice
Distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. Above
1
000 metres, the maximum towed load must
be reduced by 10
% for every 1 000 metres of
altitude.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the
temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
speed.
The maximum towed load on a long incline
depends on the gradient and the ambient
temperature.
In all cases, keep a check on the coolant
temperature.
F
I
f the warning lamp and the
STOP warning lamp come on,
stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
To avoid overheating of the brakes on a long
mountain type of descent, the use of engine
braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details
of the weights and towed loads which apply to
your vehicle.
The rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically if a genuine
PEUGEOT towbar is used.
