ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
The ABS with Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBFD) increases thestability and manoeuvrability of yourvehicle, particularly on poor or slip-pery road surfaces. Note: when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are approved. The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically whenthere is a risk of wheel lock.

The ASR system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, byacting on the brakes of the drivewheels and on the engine. It alsoallows the directional stability of thevehicle to be improved on accelera-tion.
Operation of the ASR systemWhen this system is opera- ting, this light flashes.
TRACTION CONTROL (ASR) This system is linked with and com-
plements the ABS. Disarming the ASR system In exceptional conditions (starting the vehicle when stuck in mud, on
snow, on unstable ground ... ), it may
prove useful to disarm the ASR sys-tem to allow the wheels to skid andregain grip. ☞
Press switch Ain the centre of
the fascia panel.
The indicator light on the switch and the warning light
come on: the ASR systemwill no longer act on theoperation of the engine orthe brakes. It will come into operation again: ☞
automatically above 20 mph (30 km/h),
☞ manually when the switch ispressed again.
Operating check When a malfunction of thesystem occurs, the warninglight on the instrument panelcomes on.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to havethe system checked.

Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrationsof the brake pedal. In emergency braking, press very firmly without releasingthe pressure.
The operation of the sys- tem is ensured to theextent to which therecommendations of themanufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and wheel rims),the braking components, the elec-tronic components and the assem-bly and repair procedures withinthe PEUGEOT network are obser-ved. After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Illumination of this warning light indicates a malfunctionof the electronic brake forcedistribution, which cancause a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking.
Stop immediately.

CRUISE CONTROL Cruise control enables the vehicle to maintain a steady speed program-
med by the driver, regardless of theroad characteristics and without thedriver having to touch the acceleratoror brake pedals. In order for it to be memorised, the vehicle speed must be greater thanapproximately 25 mph (40 km/h) andfourth or fifth gear must be engaged. The cruise control controls are loca- ted on the steering wheel. Operation ☞Press control A(ON position).
A speed can be memorised.
☞ Press control D(OFF position) to
cancel. Memorising a speed As soon as you reach the chosen speed, press control
Bor C. This
memorises the speed, which will be
maintained automatically. Note : It is possible to accelerate
momentarily without disarming the cruise control. Cancelling the memorised speed If you wish to cancel the memorised speed: ☞ press button Dor the brake or
clutch pedal. Recalling the memorised speed After cancellation, press button
E.
Y our vehicle will return to the last
memorised speed. Changing a memorised speed
To memorise a speed higher than
the previous one: ☞ press button B;
☞ release it when you have rea- ched the required speed.
To memorise a speed lower than the
previous one: ☞ press button C;
☞ release it when you have rea- ched the required speed.
Cancelling the cruise control ☞ Press control D (OFF position) or
switch off the ignition.

CHECKING THE LEVELS Oil level ☞Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. The maxi-mum consumption is 0.5 l per600 miles (1000 km). Check the level with the vehicle level, engine cold, using the oillevel gauge on the instrumentpanel or the dipstick.
Dipstick
There are two marks onthe dipstick: A= maximum
Never fill past this mark.B = minimum
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission control systems, the useof additives in engine oilis prohibited.
Oil change According to the information given in
"PEUGEOT SERVICING" .
Note: avoid used oil coming into
prolonged contact with the skin.
V iscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer's require-ments. Brake fluid level: - The level must always be between the DANGER and MAXIMUM
marks in the reservoir.
- If the level drops substantially,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer imme-
diately.
Fluid change: - must be carried out according to the manufacturer's servicing sche-dule.
- use fluids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4standards.
Note: brake fluid is harmful to health
and very corrosive. Avoid all contactwith the skin. Cooling system Use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer. When the engine is warm, the tem- perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan canoperate with the ignition key remo-ved and because the cooling systemis pressurised, wait for at least onehour after the engine has stoppedbefore carrying out any work. Slacken the cap to the first notch torelease the pressure to prevent anyrisk of scalding. When the pressurehas dropped, remove the cap andtop up the level. Note:
the coolant does not need to
be changed. Used oil Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid or coolant into drains or into theground. Power steering reservoir ☞ Open the reservoir, with the engine at ambient temperature.The level should always beabove the MIN. mark and closeto the MAX. mark.
