If the keys are lost

ELECTRONIC ENGINE

IMMOBILISER

This locks the engine control sys-

tem as soon as the ignition has been

switched off and therefore prevents

starting of the vehicle by anyone who

does not have the key.

The ignition key has an electronic

chip which has a special code. When

the ignition is switched on, the code

must be recognised for starting to be

possible.

Visit a PEUGEOT dealer with the ve-

hicle's V5 registration certiicate and

your personal identiication docu-

ments.

The PEUGEOT network will be able

to retrieve the key code and the

transponder code to order a replace-

ment key.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon

as possible.

Make a careful note of the

number of each key. This

number is coded on the la-

bel attached to the key.

Do not repeatedly press the buttons

of your remote control out of range

of your vehicle.

You run the risk of stopping it from

working and the remote control

would have to be reprogrammed.

The high frequency remote control

is a sensitive system; do not oper-

ate it while it is in your pocket as

there is a possibility that it may un-

lock the vehicle, without you being

aware of it.

When purchasing a second-hand ve-

hicle, have the key codes memorised

by a PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that

the keys in your possession are the

only ones which can start the vehicle.

The remote control does not oper-

ate when the key is in the ignition,

even when the ignition is switched

off, except for reprogramming.

Do not make any modiications to

the electronic engine immobiliser

system.

Driving with the doors locked may

make access to the passenger

compartment by the emergency

services more dificult in an emer-

gency.

As a safety precaution (with children

on board), remove the key from the

ignition when you leave the vehicle,

even for a short time.

SPEED LIMITER

Activating/deactivating the limiter

This speed limiter, of the new gener-

ation, has a display on the instrument

panel to indicate the programmed

speed.

It prevents exceeding of the vehicle

speed programmed by the driver.

When the programmed speed is

reached, pressing the accelerator

pedal no longer has any effect.

Instrument panel display

Pressing button 4 once activates the

limiter, pressing the button again de-

activates it.

When the limiter is active, the display

indicates (e.g. at 70 mph (110 km/h)):

When the speed limiter function is

active, pressing this button displays

the distance recorders.

After a few seconds or when this but-

ton is pressed again, the display re-

turns to the speed limiter function.

The limiter operates with a pro-

grammed speed of at least 18 mph

approx. (30 km/h); it remains active

regardless of any action on the brake

and clutch pedals.

The operating actions must be

carried out:

ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCE

DISTRIBUTION (EBFD)

EMERGENCY BRAKING

ASSISTANCE SYSTEM

In an emergency, this system ena-

bles the optimum braking pressure to

be reached more quickly, thus reduc-

ing the stopping distance.

It is triggered by the speed at which the

brake pedal is activated. The effect of

this is a reduction in the resistance of

the pedal and an increase in braking

eficiency.

When braking in an emergency,

press irmly without releasing the

pressure.

Depending on the force of the decel-

eration, the hazard warning lights are

switched on automatically. They are

switched off automatically on accel-

eration.

The ABS, in conjunction with the

electronic brake force distribution,

increases the stability and manoeu-

vrability of your vehicle on braking,

in particular on poor or slippery road

surfaces.

When changing wheels (tyres and

rims), make sure that these are ap-

proved.

Stop immediately.

In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT

dealer.

The anti-lock braking system comes

into operation automatically when

there is a risk of wheel lock.

Normal operation of the ABS may

make itself felt by slight vibrations

of the brake pedal.

In emergency braking, press

very irmly without releasing the

pressure.

When this warning light

comes on, accompanied by

The ASR system optimises drive to

prevent the wheels skidding, by act-

ing on the brakes of the drive wheels

and on the engine. It also allows the

directional stability of the vehicle to

be improved on acceleration.

If there is a variation between the tra-

jectory followed by the vehicle and

that required by the driver, the ESP

system automatically acts on the en-

gine and the brake of one or more

wheels, in order to put the vehicle

back on course, within the limits of

the laws of physics.

The ASR/ESP systems

offer exceptional safety

in normal driving, but this

should not encourage the

driver to take extra risks or drive at

high speed.

The switch lights up and the

warning light comes on, ac-

companied by a message

on the multifunction display:

the ASR and ESP systems are dis-

armed.

The correct functioning of these

systems depends on observation

AIR BAGS

Immediately after the impact, the air

bags delate rapidly so that they do

not hinder the visibility of the occu-

pants nor their exit if necessary from

the vehicle.

The air bags are not deployed in the

case of minor impacts, rear impacts

or in certain roll-over conditions. The

seat belt is suficient to ensure maxi-

mum protection in these situations.

The seriousness of a collision de-

pends on the nature of the obstacle

moment of the collision.

The air bags have been designed to

maximise the safety of the occupants

in the event of serious collisions. They

work in conjunction with the force-lim-

CHECKING THE LEVELS

Oil level

Brake fluid level:

Used oil

The brake luid must be changed ac-

cording to the manufacturer's servic-

ing schedule.

Use luids recommended by the

manufacturer, which fulil DOT4

standards.

Note: brake luid is harmful to health

and very corrosive. Avoid all contact

with the skin.

Do not dispose of used oil, brake luid

or coolant into drains or onto the

ground.

F Check the level regularly and

top up between changes. The

maximum consumption is 0.5 l

per 600 miles (1 000 km).

Check the level with the vehicle level,

engine cold, using the oil level gauge

on the instrument panel or the dip-

stick.

Power steering reservoir

F Open the reservoir, with the

engine at ambient temperature.

The level should always be

above the MIN. mark and close

to the MAX. mark.

Dipstick

Cooling system

There are two marks on

the dipstick:

A = maximum

Never ill past this mark.

B = minimum

To maintain the reliability

of engines and emission

control systems, the use

of additives in engine oil

is prohibited.

Use the luid recommended by the

manufacturer.

When the engine is warm, the tem-

perature of the coolant is controlled

by the engine fan.As this fan can ope-

rate with the ignition key removed

and because the cooling system is

pressurised, wait for at least one hour

after the engine has stopped before

carrying out any work.

Windscreen and headlamp

wash level

For best quality cleaning and for your

safety, we would advise that you use

products recommended by PEUGEOT.

For optimum cleaning and to prevent

freezing, this luid must not be topped

up or replaced with water.

Slacken the cap by two turns to re-

lease the pressure to prevent any

risk of scalding. When the pressure

has dropped, remove the cap and

top up the level.

Note: the coolant does not need to

be changed.

For vehicles equipped with a

particle ilter, the engine fan may

operate after the ignition has been

switched off, even when the en-

gine is cold.

Oil change

According to the information given in

the servicing booklet.

Note: avoid used oil coming into pro-

longed contact with the skin. Empty

the used oil into the containers intend-

ed for this purpose in the PEUGEOT

network.

Viscosity selection

In all cases, the oil selected must

meet the manufacturer's require-

ments.

RUNNING OUT OF FUEL

(DIESEL)

Change the ilter regularly, in accor-

dance with the servicing schedule.

If you should run out of fuel, it is neces-

sary to re-prime the circuit:

At the start of winter, have your bat-

tery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

-

ill the fuel tank with at least ive

litres of diesel,

-

squeeze and release the manual

re-priming pump, until fuel

appears in the transparent pipe

under the bonnet,

operate the starter until the

engine starts.

Air filter and passenger

compartment filter

Manual gearbox

This does not require an oil change.

Check the level in accordance with the

manufacturer's servicing schedule.

To check the main levels and cer-

tain components, in accordance

with the manufacturer's servicing

schedule, refer to the pages of

the servicing booklet which corre-

spond to your vehicle's engine.

Have the ilter elements replaced reg-

ularly. If you drive in dusty condi-

tions, change them twice as often.

-

Brake pads

Brake pad wear depends on the style

of driving, in particular for vehicles

which are used in town, over short

distances.

It may be necessary to check the

thickness of the pads, even between

services.

Only use products recom-

mended by PEUGEOT

or products of equivalent

quality and speciications.

To ensure best perfor-

mance from components as im-

portant as the power steering and

the braking system, PEUGEOT

selects and offers quite speciic

products.

Disc wear status

For any information relating to check-

ing the disc wear status, contact a

PEUGEOT dealer.

Handbrake

Where the handbrake travel is too

great or there is a reduction in the

performance of the system, the

handbrake should be adjusted, even

between services.

Have the system checked by a

PEUGEOT dealer.

To prevent damage to the electri-

cal units, avoid washing the en-

gine.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF

ALLOY WHEELS

Fitting the spare wheel

Wheel anti-theft bolts

If your vehicle is equipped with a

steel spare wheel, when itting it, it is

normal to notice that the bolt wash-

ers do not come into contact with the

rim. The spare wheel is secured by

the cone shape of each bolt.

If your wheels are itted with anti-theft

bolts (one per wheel), the chrome-

plated trim cap and then the plastic

cover on the wheel must be removed,

using the yellow tool (located in the

box ixed to the left-hand side of the

boot), before slackening the bolt us-

ing the anti-theft socket (located in

the glove box) and the wheelbrace,

located in the boot rear right inner

panel.

Bolt covers

Alloy wheel bolts are covered by

chrome trims.

Use the yellow tool 4 to remove the

trims before slackening the bolts.

Tool 4 is located on the rear right

inner panel of the boot.

Note: take a careful note of the code

number engraved on the head of the

anti-theft socket. This will enable you

to obtain a duplicate anti-theft socket

from a PEUGEOT dealer.

Fitting snow tyres

If you it snow tyres that are mounted

on steel rims onto your vehicle, it is

essential that you use special bolts

available from your PEUGEOT dealer.
