Instruments and controls
If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
This function is only displayed from 20 mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a change in the style of driving or the relief, resulting in a significant change in the current fuel consumption.
A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km) This indicates the distance which can still be travelled with the fuel remaining in the tank
in relation to the average fuel consumption over the last few miles (kilometres) travelled.
When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l) This is the average fuel consumption during the last few seconds.
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l) This is the average fuel consumption since the last trip computer zero reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h) This is the average speed calculated since the last trip computer zero reset (ignition on).
Trip reset
 When the trip required is displayed, press the control for more than two seconds or use the left hand thumbwheel of the steering mounted controls. Trips "1" and "2" are independent but their use is identical. For example, trip "1" can be used for daily
figures, and trip "2" for monthly figures.

Access
Lost keys, remote control, electronic key
Visit a PEUGEOT dealer with the vehicle's V5 registr ation document and your personal identification docu ments. The PEUGEOT dealer will be able to retrieve the key code and the transponder code required to order a rep lacement.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the vehicle, without you being aware of it. Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote con trol out of range and out of sight of your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would have to be rei nitialised. The remote control does not operate when the key is i n the ignition, even when the ignition is switched off.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compar tment by the emergency ser vices more di fficult in an emergency. As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the key from the ignition or take the electronic ke y when you leave the vehicle, even for a shor t time.
Electrical interference
The Keyless Entry and Star ting electronic key may not o perate if close to cer tain electronic devices: telephone, laptop computer, strong magnetic fields, ...
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the electronic engin e immobiliser system; this could cause malfunctions. Don't forget to turn the steering to engage the steering lock.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that the keys in your possession are the only ones which can star t the vehicle.
