Switching off
F Move from reverse gear into neutral.
Malfunction
If this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel accompanied by
a message in the screen, contact
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Reversing camera
If your vehicle is fitted with this camera, it is
located at the rear, next to the third brake lamp.
Switching on
The camera comes into operation when
reverse gear is engaged and remains active
up to approximately 9
mph (15 km/h). It is
deactivated above 11
mph (18 km/h).
The camera also comes on with the vehicle
stationary, when the rear doors are opened.
Switching off
When a for ward gear is engaged, the last
im age remains displayed for approximately
5
seconds then switches off.
In the same way, the last image also remains
displayed, with the vehicle stationary, when the
rear doors are closed.
With optimum vehicle conditions (position
on the road, loading level) the maximum
area of visibility covered by the camera
has a
field depth approximately 3 m long
and 5.5
m wide.
The area of visibility may vary depending
on the external weather conditions
(brightness, rain, snow, fog, etc.), the
load in the vehicle and the position of the
vehicle on the road.
When cleaning the camera and the
screen, avoid using a
detergent or a tool
which may scratch the glass.
Use a
non-abrasive cloth or a small brush.
It sends images to the screen installed in the
cab.
Activation and deactivation of the system is
done in the settings menu of the touch screen
audio-telematic system.
This rear vision is an aid to manoeuvring. The
reversing camera may be linked with the rear
parking sensors.
When the distance between the rear of the
vehicle and the obstacle is less than about
12 inches (30 centimetres), the audible signal
becomes continuous.

Pneumatic suspensionThere is a nominal level as well as 6 height
a djustment levels, raising (from +1 to +3) or
lowering (from -1
t
o -3). The levels are indicated
in the instrument panel screen.
Manual adjustment of the
loading height
Raise: upwards adjustment of the
load floor
F Make a quick press on the
control to select the next level
up. Each press (LED on) raises
the floor by one level: +1
to +3.
A long press selects the highest level (+3).
Lower: downwards adjustment of
the load floor
F Make a quick press on the
control to select the next level
down.
If your vehicle is fitted with pneumatic
suspension, you can adjust the height of
the rear of the vehicle to make loading and
unloading easier.
Each press (LED on) lowers the floor by one
level: -1
to -3.
A long press selects the lowest level (-3).
Return to the nominal floor
height
F Press the same number of times in reverse as the level of the position displayed.
Deactivation
F Hold both controls down simultaneously to deactivate the system. The LEDs remain on.
Reactivation
F Holding both controls down simultaneously a second time reactivates the system. The
LEDs go out.
Above 3
mph (5 km/h), the system
reactivates automatically.
Automatic loading height
correction
Above 12 mph (20 km/h), the system
a utomatically returns the rear floor height to its
nominal value.

Battery connections:
+ Positive terminal.
- Negative terminal (earth). The Diesel circuit is under very high
pressure.
All work on this circuit must be carried out
only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
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.
If you have to remove/refit the engine
cover, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the fixing clips.
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. Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop and dispose of it in
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Engine oil level
Check this regularly and top up as
necessary between two oil changes
(the maximum consumption is 0.5
litres
for 620
miles (1,000 km)). Make the
check with the vehicle standing level,
engine cold, using the dipstick.

Operation
This filter, fitted in the exhaust system,
accumulates particles of soot. The engine
management unit controls the automatic
periodic elimination of the soot particles
(regeneration).
The regeneration procedure is triggered
depending on the amount of particles
accumulated and the vehicle use conditions.
During this phase, you may notice some
unusual phenomena – increased idling speed,
cooling fan running, increase in smoke and
higher exhaust gas temperature – which does
not affect the operation of the vehicle or the
environment.After prolonged idling or driving at very
low speeds, you may occasionally notice
water vapour being emitted from the
exhaust when accelerating. This is of no
consequence to the running of the vehicle
or to the environment. Because of the higher exhaust gas
temperature resulting from the normal
operation of the particle filter, it is
recommended that you do not park the
vehicle over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.) so as to
avoid any risk of fire.
Saturation/Regeneration
If there is risk of blockage of the
filter, this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel.
This alert tells you that the particle filter is
starting to saturate (in conditions of urban
driving of exceptionally long duration: low
speeds, traffic jams, etc.).
To regenerate the filter, it is advised to drive
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions
and the law permit, at a
speed of at least
37
mph (60 km/h), with an engine speed above
2,000
rpm for about fifteen minutes (until the
warning lamp and/or the message disappears).
If possible, avoid switching off the engine
before the end of the filter regeneration;
repeated interruptions could cause premature
deterioration of the engine oil. It is not
recommended to end regeneration of the filter
with the vehicle stationary.
Malfunction
If this alert persists, do not ignore the warning;
it indicates that a fault has occurred in the
exhaust system/particle filter assembly.
Have the whole system checked by
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
If this warning lamp comes on, have
the brake pad wear checked by
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
e ffectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Diesel fuel filter
The Diesel fuel filter is located under the
bonnet, close to the brake fluid reser voir. If this warning lamp comes on, the
filter must be purged to remove
water.
You can also purge the fuel filter
regularly, every time the engine oil
is changed.
Purging water from the filterThe HDi engines use advanced technology.
All work must be done by personnel that
have had special training, which can be
ensured by going to a
PEUGEOT dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.

into the environment, take it to an
authorised waste disposal site or
a
PEUGEOT dealer.
