Practical information  
Interior  
Decals  
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 and deactivate the  
"hands-free" function (Hands-Free Tailgate  
Access).  
(Depending on version)  
When washing the vehicle, never use a  
water hose or high-pressure jet to clean  
the interior.  
Do not use a high-pressure washer to  
clean the vehicle - risk of damaging or  
detaching the decals!  
Liquids carried in cups or other open  
containers can spill, presenting a risk of  
damage to the instruments and controls and  
the controls located on the centre console.  
Be vigilant! 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!  
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).  
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.  
Textile  
Bodywork  
The dashboard, door panels and seats may  
contain parts made of textile material.  
High-gloss paint  
Maintenance  
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 use aggressive cleaning products  
(e.g. alcohol, solvent or ammonia).  
Do not use steam-cleaning systems - risk of  
affecting the adhesion of the fabrics!  
Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed  
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop.  
Do not apply polish in strong sunshine, or to  
plastic or rubber parts.  
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.  
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.

203  
In the event of a breakdown  
Made up of a compressor and a sealant  
cartridge, it allows you to carry out a temporary  
repair of the tyre so that you can drive to the  
nearest garage.  
It is designed to repair most punctures located  
on the tyre tread.  
Repair procedure  
Do not remove any foreign body (e.g. nail,  
screw) which has penetrated the tyre.  
Park the vehicle without obstructing traffic  
and apply the parking brake.  
The vehicle's electric system allows the  
connection of the compressor to the 12 V  
power supply for long enough to repair a tyre  
after a puncture.  
Follow the safety instructions (hazard  
warning lamps, warning triangle, high  
visibility jacket, etc.) according to the  
legislation in force in the country in which you  
are driving.  
Uncoil the pipe stowed under the  
compressor.  
Connect the pipe from the compressor to the  
valve of the tyre to be repaired and tighten  
firmly.  
Only the 12 V socket located at the front  
of the vehicle can be used to power the  
compressor.  
Switch the ignition off.  
Check that the compressor switch is in  
position "O".  
For more information on the Tool kit, refer  
to the corresponding section.  
Fully uncoil the electric cable stowed under  
the compressor.  
Connect the compressor's electric plug to the  
vehicle's 12 V socket.  
Tyre inflation pressures are indicated on  
this label.  
For more information on Identification  
markings, particularly this label, refer to the  
corresponding section.  
Remove the transparent cap from the bottle  
of sealant.  
Affix the speed limit sticker.  
Lift the protective cover before installing the  
bottle of sealant on the compressor.  
The speed limit sticker must be affixed  
inside the vehicle in the area close to  
the driver, to remind them that a wheel is in  
temporary use.  
Turn the bottle of sealant over and screw it a  
quarter turn into the compressor.  
Should the pressure of one or more tyres  
be adjusted, it is necessary to reinitialise  
the under-inflation detection system.  
For more information on Tyre under-inflation  
detection, refer to the corresponding section.  
Remove the valve cap from the tyre to be  
repaired, and place it in a clean place.  
Switch the ignition on.

In the event of a breakdown  
Checking/adjusting tyre  
pressures  
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle of  
sealant, available from a PEUGEOT dealer or  
a qualified workshop.  
8
The compressor can be used, without injecting  
sealant, to check and, if necessary, adjust the  
tyre pressures.  
Switch on the compressor by moving the  
switch to position "I" until the tyre pressure  
reaches 2 bar. The sealant product is  
injected under pressure into the tyre; do not  
disconnect the pipe from the valve during this  
operation (risk of blowback).  
Remove the valve cap from the tyre and keep  
it in a clean place.  
Uncoil the pipe stowed under the  
compressor.  
Screw the pipe onto the valve and tighten  
firmly.  
If after approximately 7 minutes, the  
pressure of 2 bar is not reached, this  
indicates that the tyre is not repairable;  
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop for assistance.  
Drive immediately for approximately 3 miles  
(5 kilometres) at reduced speed (between 12  
and 37 mph (20 and 60 km/h)) to plug the  
puncture.  
Check that the compressor switch is in  
position "O".  
Fully uncoil the electric cable stowed under  
the compressor.  
Stop to check the repair and the tyre  
pressure using the kit:  
Connect the compressor's electric plug to the  
vehicle's 12 V socket.  
Move the switch to position "O".  
• If the tyre pressure is incorrect, contact a  
PEUGEOT dealer to have the tyre changed.  
• If the tyre pressure is correct, drive a second  
time for approximately 3 miles (5 kilometres) at  
reduced speed (between 12 and 37 mph (20  
and 60 km/h)), stop then check again the tyre  
pressure using the kit to confirm the effective  
repair of the tyre.  
Switch the ignition on.  
Disconnect the compressor's electric plug  
from the vehicle's 12 V socket.  
Start the compressor by placing the switch  
at position "I" and adjust the pressure to the  
value shown on the vehicle's tyre pressure  
label. To deflate: press the black button  
located on the compressor pipe, near the  
valve connection.  
Remove the kit.  
Refit the cap on the valve.  
Remove and store the bottle of sealant.  
The sealant product is harmful if  
swallowed and causes irritation to the  
eyes.  
Keep this product out of the reach of children.  
The use-by date of the fluid is marked on the  
bottle.  
If after 7 minutes the pressure of 2 bar is  
not reached, the tyre is damaged; contact  
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop  
for assistance.  
With a tyre repaired using this type of kit,  
do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80  
km/h) and do not drive more than 125 miles  
(200 km).  
You must contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a  
qualified workshop to have the repair checked  
and the tyre changed.  
After use, do not discard the bottle into the  
environment; take it to a PEUGEOT dealer or  
an authorised waste disposal site.  
Once the correct pressure is reached, put the  
switch in position "O".

Do not force the lever when pressing on it,  
as if the clamp is not positioned correctly,  
locking will then not be possible.  
Starting using another battery  
Start the procedure again.  
The hybrid system starts the vehicle, but a  
12 V supply is required. There are several  
reasons why the vehicle cannot be started.  
The Stop & Start system may not be  
operational during the trip following the  
first engine start.  
Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if the  
vehicle has one.  
If the 12 V battery is flat, the 12 V power supply  
can be ensured using a backup battery (either  
external or from another vehicle) and jump leads  
or using a battery booster or using a battery  
charger.  
In this case, the system will only be available  
again after a continuous period with the  
vehicle immobilised, the duration of which  
depends on the exterior temperature and the  
state of charge of the battery (up to about 8  
hours).  
Connect the red cable to the (+) terminal of  
flat battery A (at the metal elbow), then to the  
(+) terminal of the backup battery B or of the  
booster.
