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, etc.). Preferably, use a
roof box.
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:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use. 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. Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes
polluting. Visit a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible 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 1,900
miles (3,000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

Warning/indicator lampStateCause Action/Observations
STOP Fixed, associated
with another warning
lamp. It is associated with the engine
oil pressure or the engine coolant
temperature. You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and call a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Parking brake Fixed. The parking brake is applied or not
properly released. Release the parking brake to extinguish the warning
lamp; keep your foot on the brake pedal.
Observe the safety recommendations.
For more information on the Parking brake
, refer to
the corresponding section.
Brakes Fixed. The brake fluid level has dropped
significantly. You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Top up with brake fluid approved by PEUGEOT.
If the problem persists, have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Fixed, associated
with the ABS warning
lamp. The electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD) system has a
fault. You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Door(s) open/
Boot openFixed, if the speed is
below 6 mph (10 km/h).A door or the electric opening boot is
still open. Close the door or boot.
Fixed, accompanied by an
audible signal if the speed
is above 6
mph (10 km/h).
Engine fault Fixed red. The engine has a major fault causing
a breakdown. You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and call 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 etc.). 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.
Engine oil
pressure Fixed.
There is a fault with the engine
lubrication system. You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Maximum
coolant
temperature Fixed red.
The temperature of the cooling
system is too high. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Wait until the engine has cooled down before topping
up to the required level, if necessary.
If the problem persists, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or

Checking levels
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.
The fluids must comply with the
manufacturer's recommendations and with
the vehicle's 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).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
or indeed very corrosive.

Practical information

119
The vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair.
Composition of the kit
1.12 V compressor, with built-in pressure
gauge.
2. Bottle of sealant, with built-in hose.
3. Speed limit sticker.
The speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the driver's
field of vision, to remind you that a wheel
is in temporary use. Do not exceed a speed of 50
mph
(80
k
m/h) when driving with a tyre repaired
using this type of kit.
Repair procedure
F Switch off the ignition.
F S ecure the speed limit sticker inside the
vehicle.
F

U
ncoil the pipe stowed under the
compressor.
Avoid removing any foreign bodies which
have penetrated into the tyre.
F

C
onnect the pipe from the compressor to
the bottle of sealant. F

R
emove the valve cap from the tyre to be
repaired, and place it in a clean area.
F

T
urn the sealant bottle over and secure it in
the cut-out provided on the compressor.
F

C

In the event of a breakdown

120
F Check that the compressor switch is at the position " O".
F

F
ully uncoil the electric cable, stowed under
the compressor.
If after around five to seven minutes the
pressure of 2
bars is not attained, this
indicates that the tyre is not repairable;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.
F Place the switch in the " O" position.
F R emove the kit.
Take care, the sealant product is harmful
if swallowed and causes irritation to the
eyes.
Keep this product out of the reach of
children.
The use-by date is marked on the bottle.
After use, do not discard the bottle by the
roadside, take it to a PEUGEOT
dealer or
an authorised waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle of
sealant, available from a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Checking/adjusting tyre
pressures
You can also use the compressor,
without injecting sealant, to check and, if
necessary, adjust the tyre pressures
F

witch on the compressor by moving the
switch to the position " I" until the tyre
pressure reaches 2.0

bars. The sealant is
injected under pressure into the tyre; do not
disconnect the hose from the valve during
this operation (risk of splashing).
F Stop to check the repair and the tyre pressure using the kit.
F

D

rive immediately for approximately three miles
(five kilometres), at reduced speed (between 12 and

pressure as shown on the vehicle tyre
pressure label. To deflate: press the black
button on the compressor hose by the valve
connector.
F

O
nce the correct pressure is reached, put
the switch to the position " O".
F

R
emove the kit then stow it.Tyre under-inflation detection
Should the pressure of one or more tyres
be adjusted, it is necessary to reinitialise
the under-inflation detection system.
For more information on Under-inflation
detection
, refer to the corresponding
section. After a tyre repair, the warning
lamp will remain on until the
system is reinitialised.
