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, trailer...).
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:
-
before a long journey
,
-

at each change of season,
-


after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or


caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air
filter, cabin filter...) and observe the schedule of operations in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR has a fault your vehicle
becomes polluting; go to a P
euge O t
dealer or a qualified

workshop as soon as possible to bring the levels of nitrous oxide
emissions back into line with the regulations.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle
to avoid any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first
1

800

miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel
consumption settle down to a consistent average.

EMISSIonS controLS
eOBD (european On Board Diagnosis)
is a diagnostics system which complies
with, among others, the standards on the
authorised emissions of:
-

CO (carbon monoxide),
-


HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
-


NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles,

detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the
catalytic converters.

System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
t

he tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
t
his system does not avoid the need
to check the tyre pressures regularly
(including the spare wheel) and before a
long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases
fuel consumption.
t

he system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the
vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre.
t

he system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres.
t

he tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
t

he tyre pressures for your vehicle can be
found on the tyre pressure label.t
he driver is warned of any
malfunction of this emission
control system by the illumination
of this specific warning lamp in
the instrument panel.
t

here is a risk of damage to the catalytic
converter. Have it checked by a P
euge
O
t

dealer or a qualified workshop.
to locate it, refer to the "

t
echnical

data
- Identification markings" section.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding, extends
braking distances and causes premature
tyre wear, particularly under arduous
conditions (vehicle loaded, high speed, long
journey).

under-inflation alert
The alert is given by the fixed
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal,
and depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
In the event of a problem on one of the
tyres, the symbol or the message appears,
according to equipment, to identify it.
-

Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering

movements or harsh brake applications.
-

Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
-


In the event of a puncture, use the

temporary puncture repair kit or the
spare wheel (according to equipment).
-

In the event of under-inflation:
●


if you have a compressor
, the one
in the temporary puncture repair
kit for example, check the four tyre
pressures when cold,


or
●

if it is not possible to check the

tyre pressures at the time, drive
carefully at reduced speed and go to
the nearest P
euge O t
dealer or a

qualified workshop.t he loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of
the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
t

he alert is maintained until the tyre or
tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired
or replaced.

illumination of this warning lamp

of the service warning lamp, and

Good practice
t
he ABS system does not provide shorter
braking distances. On very slippery surfaces
(black ice, oil...) the ABS can extend braking
distances. For emergency braking, press the
brake pedal hard and do not release it, even
on a slipper surface; you will then be able to
steer the vehicle and avoid an obstacle.
When replacing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that they conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.Emergency braking assistance
System which, in an emergency, enables
you to obtain the optimum braking pressure
more quickly, thus reducing the stopping
distance.
o

peration
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake pedal is pressed.
t

he effect of this is a reduction in the
resistance of the pedal and an increase in
braking efficiency.
Switching off
t

his system cannot be deactivated by the
driver.
o

perating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the instrument
panel screen, it indicates a fault with
the anti-lock braking system which could result
in loss of control of the vehicle when braking.
For maximum braking efficiency, a
bedding-in period of around 300 miles
(500 kilometres) is needed. During this
period it is recommended that you avoid
harsh, repeated or prolonged braking. If this warning lamp comes on,
together with the ABS warning
lamp, accompanied by a message
in the instrument panel screen,
it indicates a fault with the electronic brake
force distribution which could result in loss
of control of the vehicle when braking. When braking in an emergency, press
firmly without releasing the pressure.
You must stop as soon as it is safe
to

do

so.
In either case, contact a P
euge
O
t
dealer


or a qualified workshop.
Driving safely

driving advice
distribution of loads: distribute the load in
the trailer so that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and the nose
weight is close to the maximum authorised
without, however, exceeding it.
c

ooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
tyres:

check the tyre pressures of the
towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing
the recommended pressures.
Fitting a towbar
We recommend the use of genuine
P euge O t
towbars and their harnesses,

which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a
P
euge O t
dealer
.
t

hese genuine towbars are compatible with
the operation of the rear parking sensors
and the reversing camera, if fitted to your
vehicle.
If this equipment is not fitted by a P
euge O t

dealer

, it must be fitted in line with the
manufacturer's instructions.
Good practice
If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
Refer to the "Checks - Levels and
checks" section.
Brakes: towing increases the braking
distance. Drive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually. Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed. ABS: the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
r

ear parking sensors: the system is
deactivated while the vehicle is towing with a
genuine P
euge O t
towbar fitted.

Stow the tools and the trim (depending


on version).
refitting the repaired wheel
Refitting the repaired wheel is the same as
fitting the spare wheel; don't forget to refit
the wheel trim.
t

he spare wheel is not designed to be used
over long distances. Have the tightening
of the bolts and pressure of the spare
wheel checked by a P
euge O t
dealer or a

qualified workshop without delay.
Also, have the original wheel repaired and
refitted by a P
euge O t
dealer or a qualified

workshop as soon as possible.

- If a pressure of at least 3 bar is not
reached within 5 minutes, disconnect
the compressor from the valve and the
power socket, then move the vehicle
forward by approximately 10 metres to
distribute the sealant fluid inside the

t hen repeat the inflation operation:
●

if a pressure of at least
3 bar is not
reached within 10 minutes, switch off
your vehicle: the tyre has suffered
too much damage and repair has not
been possible. Contact a P

●


if the tyre has been inflated to a

pressure of 5 bar, set off again
immediately.
After driving for approximately 10 minutes,
stop and check the pressure of the tyre
again.
