Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not
block traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and not slippery.
Apply the parking brake, switch off the
ignition and engage first gear* to block
the wheels.
Check that the parking brake warning
lamp in the instrument panel comes on.
The occupants must get out of the
vehicle and wait where they are safe.
Ensure that the jack is correctly
positioned at one of the vehicle's
jacking points.
Incorrect use of the jack could cause
the vehicle to drop.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.
List of operations
Do not use a jack other than the one
supplied by the manufacturer.
*


Position R for an electronic gearbox; P for an
automatic gearbox.
Wheel with wheel trim
When removing the wheel , first
remove the wheel trim using the

Changing a fuse
GoodFailedPEUGEOT will not accept responsibility
for the cost incurred in repairing your
vehicle or for rectifying malfunctions
resulting from the installation of
accessories not supplied and not
recommended by PEUGEOT and
not installed in accordance with its
instructions, in particular when the
combined consumption of all of the
additional equipment connected
exceeds 10 milliamperes.
Installing electrical
accessories
Your vehicle's electrical system is
designed to operate with standard or
optional equipment.
Before installing other electrical
equipment or accessories on your
vehicle, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
Before changing a fuse:
F

t

he cause of the failure must be identified
and rectified,
F
a
ll electrical consumers must be switched
of f,
F

t

he vehicle must be immobilised with the
ignition off,
F

i

dentify the failed fuse using the tables and
layout drawings in the following pages.
To replace a fuse, you must:
F

u

se the special tweezer to extract the fuse
from its housing and check the condition of
its filament.
F

a

lways replace the failed fuse with a fuse
of the same rating (same colour); using a
different rating could cause faults (risk of
f i r e).
Tw e e z e r
The replacement of a fuse not shown in
the tables below may cause a serious
malfunction of your vehicle. Contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If the fuse fails again soon after
replacement, have the vehicle's electrical
system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.

F Start the engine of the vehicle with the good battery and leave it running for a
few


minutes.
F

O
perate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run.
I

f the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition and wait a few
moments before trying again.
Never try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery
b o o s t e r.
First check that the slave battery has a
nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off the electrical consumers on
both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, ...).
Ensure that the jump lead cables do
not pass close to moving parts of the
engine (cooling fan, belts, ...).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a slave battery
(external or on another vehicle) and jump lead
cables or a battery booster.

cable to the negative terminal (-) of the
slave battery B or the booster (or earth
point on the other vehicle).
F

efit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
your vehicle has one.
F

A
llow the engine to run for at least
30
minutes, by driving or with the vehicle
stationary, so that the battery reaches an
adequate state of charge.
Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.

Charging the battery using
a battery charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
-
i
f you use your vehicle essentially for short
journeys,
-

i
f the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Never try to charge a frozen battery.
If the battery has been frozen, have it
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop, who will check that
the internal components have not been
damaged and the casing is not cracked,
which could cause a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.
If you envisage charging your vehicle's
battery yourself, use only a charger
compatible with lead-acid batteries of a
nominal voltage of 12 V.
If this label is present, it is essential
to use only a 12 V charger, to avoid
causing irreversible damage to the
electrical components related to the
Stop & Start system. Follow the instructions for use provided
by the manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
F

S
witch off the ignition.
F

S
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lighting, wipers, ...).
F

S
witch off the charger B before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
F

E
nsure that the charger cables are in good
condition.
F

R
aise the plastic cover, if your vehicle has
one, on the (+) terminal.
F

C
onnect the charger B cables as follows:
-

t
he positive (+) red cable to the (+)
terminal of the battery A ,
-

t
he negative (-) black cable to the earth
point C on the vehicle.
F

A
t the end of the charging operation, switch
off the charger B before disconnecting the
cables from the battery A .

Disconnecting the (+) terminal
F Raise the lever A fully to release the clamp B.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
F Position the open clamp B of the cable on
the positive post (+) of the battery.
F

P
ress down on the clamp to position it
correctly on the battery post.
F

L
ock the clamp by lowering the lever A .
Do not force the lever as locking will
not be possible if the clamp is not
positioned correctly; start the procedure
again.
Disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state
of charge for starting the engine, it is
recommended that the battery be disconnected
if the vehicle is taken out of service for a long
period.
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition
before disconnecting the battery:
F

c
lose all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof),
F

s
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, ...),
F

s
witch off the ignition and wait for four
minutes.
Having exposed the battery, it is only
necessary to disconnect the (+) terminal.
Following reconnection of the
battery
After reconnecting the battery, switch on the
ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to
allow initialisation of the electronic systems.
However, if minor problems persist following
this operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself reinitialise or reset certain
systems, such as:
-

t
he remote control,
-

t
he date and time,
-

t
he radio preset stations.
Quick release terminal
The Stop & Start system may not be
operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous
period of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the ambient
temperature and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours).

Checking levels
Engine oil level
The check of the oil level is carried
out with the dipstick, located under
the bonnet. For the position of the
dipstick, refer to the under-bonnet
view on a previous page.Checking with dipstick
If you find that the oil level is above the A mark
or below the B mark, do not star t the engine.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start at
any time (even with the ignition off).
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is normal to top up the oil level
between two services (or oil changes).
PEUGEOT recommends that you check
the level, and top up if necessary, every
3 000 miles (5 000 km).
To ensure the accuracy of the reading, your
vehicle must be on a level sur face, with the
engine off for at least 30 minutes.
-

I
f the level is above
the MAX mark (risk of
engine damage), contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
-

I
f the level is below the
MIN mark, you must top-
up the engine oil.
Refer to the under-bonnet view for the location
of the dipstick on your vehicle.
F

T

and non-fluffy cloth.
F

R

efit the dipstick and push it fully down,
then pull it out again for a visual check of
the oil level: the level must be between the
two marks A and B .
