system
fl ashing.
The engine management system
has a fault. Risk of destruction of the catalytic converter.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
fi xed. The emission control system has
a fault. The warning lamp should go off when the engine is started.
If it does not go off, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or qualifi ed
workshop without delay.
Low fuel level fi xed with the
needle in the
red zone,
accompanied by
an audible signal
and a message.
When it fi rst comes on there
remains approximately
5 litres of
fuel in the tank.
At this point, you begin to use the
fuel reserve. Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of fuel.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added, this warning lamp
will come on every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by an audible signal and a message.
The audible signal and message are repeated with
increasing frequency as the fuel level drops towards
"0" .
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 55 litres .
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel, as this
could damage the emission control and injection systems.
Warning lamp
is on Cause Action / Observations
Service on temporarily.
A minor fault has occurred for
which there is no specifi c warning
lamp. Identify the fault by reading the message shown in the
screen, such as, for example:
- opening of the doors, boot or bonnet,
- low engine oil level,
- low screenwash level,
- fl at remote control battery,
- saturation of the particle emission fi lter (Diesel)
As soon as traffi c conditions permit, regenerate the
fi lter by driving at a speed of at least 36 mph (60 km/h)
until the service warning lamp goes off.
- a fault with the tyre under-infl ation detection system,
- ...
For any other faults, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

Oil level correct
This is indicated by the fl ashing of "OIL" or an alert message in the
instrument panel, accompanied by illumination of the service warning
lamp and an audible signal.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a check using the dipstick, it is essential
that the level is topped up to prevent damage to the engine.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section. This is indicated by the fl ashing of
"OIL--" or the appearance of an alert
message in the instrument panel.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
In the event of a fault with the electric gauge, the oil level is no lon\
ger
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you should check the engine oil level using the
dipstick under the bonnet.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section.

ACCESS
ALARM *
System which protects and provides a deterrent against theft and
break-ins. It provides the following types of monitoring.
- exterior perimeter
The system checks for opening of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to open a door, the boot, the
bonnet...
- interior volumetric
The system checks for any variation in the volume in the passenger compa\
rtment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a window, enters the passenger
compartment or moves inside the vehicle.
- tilt
The system checks for any change in the attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is lifted, moved or knocked. For all work on the alarm system, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
LOCKING THE VEHICLE WITH FULL ALARM
SYSTEM
Activation
Switch off the ignition and get out of the vehicle.
Press the locking button on the remote control.
The monitoring system is active: the indicator lamp in the button fl ashes
once per second.
After the locking button on the remote control is pressed, the exterior \
perimeter monitoring is activated after a delay of 5 seconds and the
interior volumetric and anti-tilt monitoring after a delay of 45 seconds\
.
Deactivation
Press the unlocking button on the remote control.
The alarm system is deactivated: the indicator lamp in the button goes o\
ff.
Self-protection function
The system checks for the putting out of service of its
components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, the central control or the siren
wiring are put out of service or damaged.
* According to country. If an opening (door, boot...) is not closed fully, the vehicle is not
locked but the exterior perimeter monitoring will be activated after
a delay of 45 seconds at the same time as the interior volumetric
and anti-tilt monitoring.

ACTIVE BONNET
Operating fault
The active bonnet has been designed to maximise the safety of
pedestrians in the event of an impact with the front of the vehicle. The deployment of the active bonnet is accompanied by a slight
emission of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation
of the pyrotechnic cartridge integrated in the system. The airbag
warning lamp comes on.
After deployment, close the bonnet by pressing on the hinges.
Go to the nearest PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop at a
maximum speed of 20 mph (30 km/h). This equipment can only operate once. If a second impact occurs
(during the same or a subsequent accident), the active bonnet will
not operate.
After an accident or theft of the vehicle, have the system checked.
Do not handle the pyrotechnic systems, located under the bonnet
near the struts: risk of explosion.
All work on this system is strictly prohibited unless carried out by
skilled personnel of a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
If this warning lamp comes on on the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the
screen, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop to
have the system checked. The active bonnet may no longer
be deployed in the event of an impact.

BONNET
OPENING
Open the front left door.
Pull the interior release lever A , located at the bottom of the door
aperture.
CLOSING
Lower the bonnet and release it at the end of its travel.
Pull on the bonnet to check that it is fully latched. Push the exterior safety catch B to the left and raise the bonnet.
The bonnet is held open by the two side struts.
The location of the interior release lever prevents opening of the
bonnet while the front left door is closed.
When the engine is hot, handle the safety catch with care (risk of
burns).
Because of the presence of electrical equipment under the bonnet,
it is recommended that exposure to water (rain, washing, ...) be
limited.

CHECKS
2 LITRE HDI ENGINE
Fill the fuel tank with at least fi ve litres of Diesel.
Open the bonnet.
If necessary, unclip the style cover for access to the priming pump.
Slacken the bleed screw.
Squeeze and release the priming pump repeatedly until fuel appears in the transparent pipe.
Tighten the bleed screw.
Operate the starter until the engine starts (if the engine fails to sta\
rt at the fi rst attempt, wait around 15 seconds before trying again).
If the engine fails to start after a few attempts, operate the priming pump again, then the starter.
Put the style cover back in position and clip it in place, ensuring that\
it has clipped correctly.
Close the bonnet.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL (DIESEL)
If the engine does not start fi rst time, don't keep trying.
Operate the priming pump again, then the starter motor.
On vehicle fi tted with HDi engines, the fuel system must be primed
if you run out of fuel; refer to the engine compartment view on the
"Diesel engine" page.

CHECKING LEVELS
ENGINE OIL LEVEL
The check is carried out either when the ignition is switched
on using the oil level indicator in the instrument panel, or using
the dipstick.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine m\
ay be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start
at any time (even with the ignition off).
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the warranty and maintenance record. Top them up if necessary, unless otherwise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
To ensure that the reading is correct, your vehicle must be on
level ground and the engine must have been off for more than
30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two services (or oil chang\
es).
PEUGEOT recommends that you check the level, and top up if
necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
Checking using the dipstick
Refer to the "Petrol engine" or "Diesel engine" section for the location\
of
the dipstick in the engine compartment of your vehicle.
- Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and remove it completely.
- Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean non-fl uffy cloth.
- Refi t the dipstick and push fully down, then pull it out again to make the visual check: the correct level is between the marks A and B . A = MAX
B = MIN
If you fi nd that the level is above the A mark or below the B mark, do
not start the engine .
- If the level is above the MAX mark (risk of damage to the engine),
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
- If the level is below the MIN mark, you must top up the engine oil.
