For 4-wheel drive vehicles (4x4), put the
transmission selector in 2H

mode.
►

Switch the ignition off.
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.
When using a pressure washer, keep the jet
nozzle at a minimum distance of 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
paintwork (including tree resin, bird
droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar).
Depending on the environment, clean the
vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits
(in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas)
and mud/salts (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).
Apply silicone oil to the door and window
seals every year and regularly lubricate the
door hinges and the locks.
To avoid damaging the seals when the vehicle
is parked for a long time, apply silicone-based
lubricant to the door seals and wax on the
bodywork in contact with the seals.
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 CarM an uals 2 .c o m

11 2
Practical information
damage to the instruments and controls and
the controls located on the centre console. Be
vigilant!
When cleaning the windows, never use glass
cleaner on the heated rear screen.
Do not use corrosive cleaning products to
clean the surface of the vehicle windows.
Clean plastic components with a damp cotton
cloth dipped in a neutral pH and non-abrasive
solution. Clean oily or difficult stains with a
solvent-free product.
To clean instrument panels, touch screens
or other displays, wipe gently with a soft,
dry cloth. Do not use products (e.g. alcohol,
disinfectant) or soapy water directly on these
surfaces - risk of damage!
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.
Decals
(Depending on version)
Do not use a high-pressure washer to
clean the vehicle - risk of damaging or
detaching the decals!
Use a high-flow hose (temperature
between 25°C and 40°C).
Place the jet of water perpendicular to the
surface to be cleaned.
Rinse the vehicle with demineralised water.
Corrosion protection
Avoid accumulation of salt, dirt, chemicals and moisture in hard-to-clean
areas.
Have damaged parts of the bodywork
repaired.
Avoid parking the vehicle in wet areas; favour
aerated and ventilated areas.
Remove dust or sand from under the
mats and dry any moisture.
Regularly clean the drain holes in the doors,
the bodywork and the chassis.
When transporting corrosive objects (acids,
fertilisers, salt), use special containers and
clean after unloading.
Wash the vehicle, paying particular attention
to hard-to-reach areas, after driving on roads
treated with road salt.
Textile
The dashboard, door panels and seats may
contain parts made of textile material.
Maintenance
Do not use aggressive cleaning products
(e.g. alcohol, solvent or ammonia).
Do not use steam-cleaning systems - risk of
affecting the adhesion of the fabrics!
Remove dust from the textile parts
regularly with a dry cloth, soft brush or
vacuum cleaner
.
Rub down the
textile parts once per year with
a clean, damp cloth. After leaving overnight to
dry, brush with a soft-bristled brush.
Stain removal
Do not rub the stain or it may spread or
you may cause the substance to
penetrate the surface. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

11 3
Practical information
7Act quickly by reducing the stain from its edges inwards.
Remove as much substance or solids as
possible using a spoon or spatula, and
remove
as much liquid as possible using
absorbent paper.
Product/Procedure to use depending
on the type of stain:
–

Grease, oil and ink: clean with a pH-neutral
detergent.
–


V

omit: clean with sparkling mineral water.
–

Blood: spread flour over the stain and allow
to dry; remove with a slightly damp cloth.
–


Mud: allow to dry and then remove with a
slightly damp cloth.
–


Cake, chocolate, ice cream: clean with
lukewarm water

.
–

Sugary and/or alcoholic drinks: clean with
lukewarm water

, or lemon juice if the stain is
persistent.
–

Hair gel, coffee, tomato sauce, vinegar:
clean with lukewarm water and lemon juice.
For solid substances, then use a soft brush or
vacuum cleaner

.
For liquid substances, then use a damp
microfibre cloth and then dry with another
cloth.
Leather
Leather is a natural product. Appropriate regular
care is essential for its durability.
It must be protected and nourished using a
specific leather product, to keep it supple and
preserve its original appearance.
Do not use maintenance products which
are not suitable for cleaning leather
(e.g.
solvent, detergent, petrol, pure alcohol).
Do not use bleaching or colour-removal
products (e.g.
perchloroethylene).
When cleaning items partly made from
leather, take care not to damage the other
materials with the specific leather product.
Before cleaning greasy stains or liquids,
quickly mop up any surplus.
Before cleaning, wipe off any residues liable
to scuff the leather, using a cloth that has
been dampened with demineralised water
and thoroughly wrung out.
Clean the leather, without rubbing too
vigorously, using a soft cloth moistened with
soapy water or a pH-neutral product.
Dry with a soft, dry cloth. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Turn on the hazard warning lamps, then
put on the safety vest to assemble and install
the triangle.
Storage



Storage compartments located under each rear
bench seat cushion can store a folded triangle or
its storage box. For more information on the
Rear bench seat,
and especially on the storage compartments
under the seat cushions, refer to the
corresponding section.

In the event of a breakdown
8After using the fire extinguisher, store it in a safe
place, then replace it with a new extinguisher as
soon as possible.
Never keep a fire extinguisher that has
already been used or that does not bear
its seal.
When the fire extinguisher is not used, attach
it to its support. There is a risk of movement
in the event of sudden braking or an accident.
The fire extinguisher must be replaced
approximately every 5 years; the expiry date
is written on its label.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop to replace the fire
extinguisher with one that has the same
specifications as the original.
Running out of fuel
(Diesel)
With Diesel engines, the fuel system must be
primed if you run out of fuel.
Before starting to prime the system, it is
essential to put at least 5 litres of Diesel into the
fuel tank.
For non-BlueHDi versions, the fuel system
components are located in the engine
compartment; this may be under a removable
cover.
For more information on Refuelling and
on the Engine compartment (in
particular the location of the priming pump),
refer to the corresponding section.
Non-BlueHDi engines

► Loosen the degassing bolt about 2 to 3 turns.
► Activate the priming pump until fuel
(without air) appears through the
degassing bolt.
►

Retighten the degassing bolt.
►


Operate the starter motor until the engine
starts (if the engine does not start at the first
attempt, wait around 15 seconds before trying
again).
►


If the engine does not start after a few
attempts, operate the priming pump again, then
start the engine.
►


Close the bonnet.
BlueHDi engines
► Switch on the ignition (without starting the
engine).
