INSTRUMENT PANEL DIALS: AUTOMATIC GEARBOX

Handbrake, low brake fluid level and electronic brake force
distribution warning light.
This comes on each time the ignition is switched on.
It indicates either:
– that the handbrake is on or has not been released correctly,
and when coupled with the central (STOP) warning light:
– an excessive drop in the brake fluid level (if the light remai ns on even with the
handbrake released),
– lit at the same time as the ABS warning light, it indicates a malfunction of the
electronic brake force distribution system.
Stop immediately.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Antilock braking system (ABS) warning light
This comes on for 3 seconds each time the ignition is switched o n.
If it comes on at over 8 m.p.h. (12 km/h), it indicates a malfun ction of the
ABS.
However, the vehicle retains conventional servoassisted braking.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Clogging of the
particulate emission
filter warning light
(diesel engine)
Display of this warning light is
accompanied by an audible signal.
The flashing of this light while the
engine is running is caused either by
the particulate emission filter being
overloaded or by the engine running
too long at idle (white smoke from
the exhaust). There is a risk of the fil
ter clogging if the same conditions of
operation are maintained.
As soon as possible, drive for at
least three minutes at a speed
exceeding 37 m.p.h. (60 km/h), if dri
ving conditions allow this.
If the light comes on, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon as
possible. Front brake pad wear warning light
For your safety, have the pads replaced as soon as this light co
mes on.

PETROL / LPG DUALFUEL VERSION165
Operation
The twin fuel system allows either
petrol or liquid petroleum gas (LPG)
to be used.
Press switch 1 in the centre of the
centre console.
Different statuses of indicator light
2 :
– flashing; request for operation using LPG,
– fixed; operating using LPG,
– off; operating using petrol.
Starting
Irrespective of the position of switch 1, the engine starts using petrol.
The switch to operation using LPG will take place if switch 1 is in the LPG
position. The LPG indicator light flashes until the engine reaches an adequa te
temperature.
The switch from one fuel to the other is displayed by the swi tching on/switching
off of indicator light 2.
When the minimum LPG level is reached, while driving, this is i ndicated by flashing
of switch 2; the system then switches to operation using petrol automatica lly.
It is advisable to drive in petrol mode from time to time to keep the petrol
injection system in good condition. If switch
2 flashes rapidly, move switch 1 to the petrol position, then
return to LPG mode.
If switch 2 still flashes rapidly, consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
