FAMILIARISATION

AP-EXPERT-VU_EN_CHAP01_PRISE EN MAIN_ED01-2014
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, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof
box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks
after use.
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, passenger
compartment filter...) and observe the
schedule of operations recommended in the
warranty and maintenance record. When refuelling, do not continue after the
third 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.

The alert is given by the fi xed
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal,
and depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
Under-inflation alert
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),
or
- 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. The loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of
the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.
The alert is maintained until the tyre or
tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired
or replaced.
The spare wheel (space-saver type or a
steel rim) does not have a sensor.
Operating fault
The fl ashing and then fi xed
illumination of the under-infl ation
warning lamp accompanied by the
illumination of the "service" warning
lamp, and depending on equipment, the display
of a message indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is
not assured.
This alert is also displayed when one or
more wheels is not fitted with a sensor
(for example, a space-saver or steel spare
wheel).
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked or,
following the repair of a puncture, to have
the original wheel, equipped with a sensor,
refitted.

Service overdue With the engine running the spanner
remains on until the service has been
carried out. Each time the ignition is switched
on and for a few seconds, the
spanner fl ashes and the excess
distance is displayed.
Operation
A few moments after the ignition has been
switched on, the spanner indicating a
service operation comes on; the display for
the total distance recorder gives (in round
figures) the distance remaining before the
next service.
A few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the oil level is displayed, then the total
distance recorder resumes normal operation
showing the total and trip distances.
Less than 1 000 miles/km before the next
service is due
Each time the ignition is switched on and for a few
seconds, the spanner fl ashes and the number of
miles/kilometres remaining is displayed: A few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the oil level is displayed, then the total
distance recorder resumes normal operation
and the spanner remains on. This indicates
that a service should be carried out shortly.
The distance remaining before the next
service may be weighted by the time
factor, depending on the type of driving. More than 1 000 miles/km before the next
service is due
Example: 4 800 miles/km remain before
the next service is due. When the ignition
is switched on and for a few seconds, the
screen shows:
SERVICE INDICATOR
This programmes service intervals according
to the use of the vehicle.
The points at which a service is due are
calculated from the last indicator zero reset.
The point at which a service is due is
determined by two parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time which has elapsed since the
last service.

When the display shows "=0" , release
the button; the spanner disappears.
After this operation, if you wish to disconnect
the battery, lock the vehicle and wait for at
least five minutes, otherwise the zero re-set
will not be registered.
Zero re-set
Your PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop carries out this operation after
each service.
However, if you carry out the service
yourself, the re-set procedure is as follows:
- switch off the ignition,
- press and hold the trip recorder reset button,
- switch on the ignition.
The display begins a countdown.
Engine oil level indicator
Depending on your vehicle's engine, when
the ignition is switched on, the engine oil
level is indicated for a few seconds, after the
service information.
Oil level correct
Low oil level
Flashing of "OIL" , linked
with the service warning
lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message in the
screen, indicates a low oil level which could
damage the engine.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check
using the dipstick, it is essential that the
level is topped up.
Oil level gauge fault
Flashing of "OIL--"
indicates a malfunction
of the engine oil level
indicator. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and the
engine has been off for more than
30 minutes. Dipstick
A
= maximum, never exceed
this level as a surplus of oil may
damage the engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop without delay.
B = minimum, top up the level via
the oil filler cap, using the grade
of oil suited to your engine.
Trip recorder zero reset

With the ignition on, press the
button until the zeros appear.
Lighting dimmer
With the lighting on, press the
button to vary the brightness
of the instruments and
controls. When the lighting
reaches the minimum (or maximum) setting,
release the button then press it again to
increase (or reduce) the brightness.
As soon as the lighting is of the required
brightness, release the button.

Automatic illumination of headlamps Activation
Turn the ring to the AUTO position. The
activation of this function is accompanied by
a message in the screen.
If the sunshine sensor does not function
correctly , the lighting comes on accompanied
by the service warning lamp, an audible signal
and a message in the screen.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
HEADLAMP BEAM
Depending on the load in your vehicle, the
beam setting must be adjusted.
0 - No load.
1 - Partial load.
2 - Average load.
3 - Maximum authorised load.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor
located on the windscreen, behind
the mirror. It is used for the automatic
illumination of headlamps and for the
automatic rain sensitive wipers.
The sidelamps and dipped
beam headlamps switch
on automatically if the light
is poor, or during operation
of the windscreen wipers. They switch off as
soon as the light becomes bright enough or
the windscreen wipers stop.
This function is not compatible with the
daytime running lamps.
Deactivation
Turn the ring forwards or rearwards. The
deactivation of this function is accompanied
by a message in the screen.
The function is deactivated temporarily when
you use the manual lighting control stalk.
Initial setting is position 0.
In foggy weather or in snow, the
sunshine sensor may detect sufficient
light. As a consequence, the lighting will not
come on automatically. If necessary, you
must switch on the dipped beam headlamps
manually.
Travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country
that drives on the other side of the road,
the headlamps must be adjusted to avoid
dazzling on-coming drivers.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
