Practical information
7Keyless Entry and Starting
You must not depress the brake pedal
while switching the ignition on again, then
switching it off. If you do, the engine will start,
requiring you to restart the procedure.
Advice on care and maintenance
General recommendations
Observe the following recommendations to avoid
damaging the vehicle.
Exterior
Never use a high-pressure jet wash in
the engine compartment - risk of
damaging the electrical components!
Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or
extremely cold conditions.
When washing the vehicle in an
automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure
to lock the doors and, depending on version,
move the electronic key away and deactivate
the “hands-free” function (Hands-Free
Access).
When using a pressure washer, hold the
lance at least 30 cm from the vehicle
(particularly when cleaning areas containing
chipped paint, sensors or seals).
Promptly clean up any stains containing
chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's paint
(including tree resin, bird droppings, insect
secretions, pollen and tar).
If justified by the environment, clean the
vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits (in
coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas) and
mud (in wet or cold areas). These substances
can be highly corrosive.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for advice on removing stubborn
stains requiring special products (such as tar
or insect removers).
Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Interior
When washing the vehicle, never use a
water hose or high-pressure jet to clean
the interior.
Liquids carried in cups or other open
containers can spill, presenting a risk of
damage to the instruments and controls and
the controls located on the centre console. Be
vigilant!
Bodywork
High-gloss paint
Do not use abrasive products, solvents,
petrol or oil to clean the bodywork.
Never use an abrasive sponge to clean
stubborn stains - risk of scratching the
paintwork!
Do not apply polish in strong sunshine, or to
plastic or rubber parts.
Use a soft cloth and soapy water or a pH
neutral product.
Gently wipe the bodywork with a clean
microfibre cloth.
Apply polish with the vehicle clean and dry.
Comply with the instructions for use stated on
the product.
Textured paint
This type of paint reacts under the effect of
light, through variations in appearance and
finish that highlight the lines and contours of the
vehicle. Its varnish is enriched with particles that
remain visible and create a unique satin effect
with relief. Its slightly granular texture gives it a
surprising touch.
Never attempt to clean without water.
Never clean your vehicle in an automatic
roller-brush car wash.

In the event of a breakdown
These tools are specific to the vehicle and may vary according to the level of
equipment.
Do not use them for any other purpose.
The jack must only be used to change a wheel with a damaged or punctured tyre.
Do not use any jack other than the one
supplied with the vehicle.
If the vehicle does not have its original jack,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to obtain the one that was intended
by the manufacturer.
The jack meets European standards, as
defined in the Machinery Directive 2006/42/
CE.
The jack does not require any maintenance.
Access to the spare wheel
► Access to the spare wheel is from the rear.
► Depending on version, open the side-hinged
doors or the tailgate.
To avoid any unwanted opening of the electric side door(s), deactivate the
Hands-Free Access function in the vehicle
configuration menu.
For more information on the Hands-Free
Sliding Side Door , refer to the corresponding
section.

Tyre in the carrier
You can change the size of the tyre on the spare
wheel by following the instructions below.
Original tyre
size Compact-
Standard Long
215/65 R16 Placing a 225 wheel in the carrier is prohibited. There is no
restriction.
215/60 R17
215/60 R17
M&S
225/55 R17 Placing a 215 wheel in the carrier is not recom-
mended (risk of noise).
A punctured tyre of size 215 or 225 can be placed in the carrier.
Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does
not obstruct traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and non-slippery.
With a manual gearbox, engage first gear
then switch off the ignition to block the
wheels.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector in position P then switch off the
ignition to block the wheels.
With a drive selector, place the gear selector
in position P then switch off the ignition to
block the wheels.
Apply the parking brake, unless it is
programmed to automatic mode (for an
electric parking brake), and check that the
indicator lamp lights up on
the instrument
panel.
Ensure that the occupants have left the
vehicle and are located in a safe place.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised using a
jack; use an axle stand.
With an electric parking brake, place a chock
against the wheel diagonally opposite to the
one being replaced.


► With a steel wheel, remove the bolt cover
using tool 3
or the wheel trim by hand.
►

With an alloy wheel, remove the cover from
each of the bolts using tool 3

.
►

If the vehicle is so equipped, fit security bolt
socket

4 to wheelbrace 1 to slacken the security
bolt.
►

Slacken
(without removing) the other wheel
bolts using just wheelbrace 1.


► Place the foot of the jack on the ground and
ensure that it is directly below the A
or B jacking
point provided on the underbody, whichever is
closest to the wheel to be changed.

212
In the event of a breakdown
Model with halogen
headlamps


1.Sidelamps (W5W-5W)
2. Main beam headlamps (H1-55W)
3. Dipped beam headlamps (H7-55W)
4. Daytime running lamps (W21W LL-21W)
5. Direction indicators (PY21W-21W amber)
Model with Xenon
headlamps


1.Main beam headlamps (H1-55W)
2. Dipped beam headlamps (D8S-25W)
3. Direction indicators (PY21W-21W amber)
Fitting a steel or "space-saver" type
spare wheel
If the vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, the
washers A do not make contact with the steel
or "space-saver" type spare wheel. The wheel
is held in place by the conical contact surface
B of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
Stow the punctured wheel in the carrier.
Go promptly to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Have the punctured tyre examined. After
inspection, the technician will advise you on
whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must
be replaced.
Some driving aid functions should be
disabled, e.g. the Active Safety Brake.
If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.
For more information on Tyre under-inflation
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
Tyre under-inflation detection
The steel spare wheel does not have a
sensor.
Wheel with wheel trim
When refitting the wheel, refit the wheel
trim, starting by aligning the cutout with the
valve and then pushing the trim into place all
round its edge with the palm of your hand.
Changing a bulb
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:
–

Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive
cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products.
–


Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product.
–


When using a high-pressure washer on
persistent marks, do not keep the lance
directed towards the headlamps, lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to damage
their protective coating and seals.
Changing a bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp /
lamp has been switched off for several
minutes - risk of serious burns!
Do not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers; use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb
of the same type and specification. To avoid
lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.
Halogen bulbs (Hx)
To ensure good quality lighting, check
that the bulb is correctly positioned in its
housing.
Opening the bonnet/Accessing the
bulbs
Proceed with caution when the engine is hot -
risk of burns!
Take care with objects or clothing that could
be caught in the blades of the cooling fan -
risk of strangulation!
After changing a bulb
To refit, carry out the operations in
reverse order to removal.
Close the protective cover very carefully to
guarantee the sealing of the lamps.

charge the battery:
–

When using the vehicle mainly for short
journeys.
–


If the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Consult a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified
workshop.
