6-speed gearbox reverse gear
In the 6-speed configuration, raise the collar
under the gear knob to engage reverse gear.
Never engage reverse gear before the
vehicle is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce
the noise on engaging reverse gear.
To change gear easily, always press the
clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:
- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand on
the gear knob as the force exerted, even if
slight, may wear the internal components of
the gearbox over time.
AND DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
When the vehicle is stationary, unlock the
steering wheel by lowering the lever.
Adjust the height and depth of the steering
wheel, then lock by pushing the lever fully
upwards.

Starting and stopping
STARTING AND STOPPING
Key
Take care to prevent the key from coming
into contact with grease, dust, rain or
a damp environment.
A heavy object attached to the key
(key ring, ...) weighing the key down in the
ignition switch may cause a malfunction.
Good practice when starting Door or bonnet open warning light
If this comes on, a door or the
bonnet is not closed correctly,
check!
Diesel pre-heating warning light If the temperature is high
enough, the warning light comes
on for less than one second,
you can start without waiting.
In cold weather, wait for this warning light
to switch off then operate the starter
(Starting position) until the engine starts. Good practice when stopping
Minimise engine and gearbox wear
When switching off the ignition, let the
engine run for a few seconds to allow the
turbocharger (Diesel engine) to return to idle.
Do not press the accelerator when switching
off the ignition.
There is no need to engage a gear after
parking the vehicle.

ACCESSORIES

For more information about weights,
refer to the administrative documents
(V5 registration document, ...) or to the
"Weights" section of chapter 8.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...

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.
Cooling
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.
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.

Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule. To check the main levels and certain
components, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule, refer to
the pages of the servicing booklet which
correspond to your vehicle's engine.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and characteristics.
In order to optimise the operation of units as
important as the braking circuit, PEUGEOT
selects and offers specific products.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical
units, high pressure washing to clean the
engine compartment is strictly prohibited.
Bleeding the water contained in the
diesel filter
If this warning light comes on,
bleed the filter. Otherwise bleed
regularly each time the engine is
drained.
To evacuate the water, unscrew the bleed
screw located on the filter.
Operate until all of the water in the
transparent pipe has been drained out then
tighten the bleed screw.
HDi engines use advanced technology.
All work requires a special qualification
which is guaranteed by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Having your vehicle towed
Without lifting (4 wheels on the road)
You should always use a towbar.
From the front
- Unclip the cover by pressing the bottom part.
- Screw in the removable towing eye until it locks.
BEING TOWED
Lifting (2 wheels on the road only)
It is preferable to raise the vehicle using
professional lifting equipment.
From the rear
- Unclip the cover using a coin or the flat part of the towing eye,
- Screw in the removable towing eye until it locks. When towing with the engine switched
off, there is no braking or steering
assistance.
Vehicles fitted with a manual
gearbox (diesel version)
In the case of vehicles fitted with a manual
gearbox, the gear lever must be in the
neutral position. Failure to observe this
special condition may result in damage
to certain braking components and the
absence of braking assistance the next time
the engine is started.

Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with b iofuels which conform to current and future Europea n standards (diesel fuel which
complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214) which can be distributed at the pumps
(possible incorporation of 0 to 7 % Fatty Acid Meth yl Ester).
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel (vegetable or animal oils, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the engine and fuel
