Driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations and remain
vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and keep your
hands on the steering wheel so that you are
ready to react at any time to any eventuality.
As a safety measure, the driver must only carry
out any operations that require close attention
when the vehicle is stationary.
On a long journey, a break every two hours is
strongly recommended.
In bad weather, drive smoothly, anticipate the
need to brake and increase the distance from
other vehicles.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied – Risk of overheating and damage to the
braking system!
Never leave a vehicle unsuper vised with
the motor running. If you have to leave
your vehicle with the motor running,
apply the parking brake and put the drive
selector into position N or P.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage
to the motor or gearbox, as well as to the
electrical systems of your vehicle.
If you are obliged to drive through water:
-

c
heck that the depth of water does not
exceed 6 inches (15
cm), taking account
of waves that might be generated by other
users,
-

d
rive as slowly as possible. In all cases, do
not exceed 6
mph (10 km/h).
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as
circumstances allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Rear compartment
Coolant level
The level of this fluid must be
between the "L" (MIN) and "F"
(MA X) marks.
As the cooling system is pressurised, wait at
least one hour after switching off the motor
before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of burns, unscrew the cap by
two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.
Changing the fluid
This fluid does not need to be changed.
Checks
Passenger compartment filter
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving),
replace it twice as often if
necessary .
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.
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.
Ancillaries battery electrolyte
level
To check this level, you must remove the
battery cover.
For more information on the ancillaries
battery , refer to the corresponding section.
The level of this fluid must be between the
"LOWER LEVEL" (MIN) and "UPPER LEVEL"
(MA X) marks.
If necessary, top up with distilled water by
removing the plugs from the battery’s different
compartments.
Check the electrolyte level at least once
a month. Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear
For information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Practical information

Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness 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.
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.
Changing a wiper blade
Removing front or rear
wiper blades
F Raise the corresponding wiper arm.
F T ake off the wiper blade by sliding it to the
outside.
Fitting front or rear wipers
F Put the new wiper blade in place and secure it.
F

C
arefully lower the wiper arm.
Washing precautions
Never wash the vehicle while the battery
is on charge.
Before washing the vehicle, check that
the access flaps and the charging socket
covers (normal and fast) are closed
properly.
In order to avoid damaging the electric
units, the use of a high pressure jet wash
is strictly forbidden:
-

u
nder the bonnet,
-

u
nder the chassis.
Do not use a pressure greater than
80
bars when washing the bodywork.
