Low fuel level

When the fuel tank level E
(Empty) is reached, this warning
lamp comes on. At this moment,
you have enough fuel left to

drive approximately 30 miles (50 km) ,
depending on the driving conditions, the
engine and the profile of the road. Fill up
without delay to avoid running out of fuel.

The fuel tank must be filled with the
engine off.
-

Open the fuel filler flap.

Support the cap with one hand.

With the other hand, insert the key, then
turn it anticlockwise.

Remove the cap and hook it onto the
clip located on the inside of the flap.

A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could
cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 90 litres.
-

After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap
and close the flap.

FUEL SYSTEM CUT-OFF

In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle's electrical supply.

FILLING WITH FUEL

Fuel tanks of different capacities,
60 and 125 litres, may be fitted.

Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.

Restore the supply by pressing:

the first button, located under the glove
box.

the second button, located in the battery
compartment under the driver's floor.

In low temperatures
In mountainous and/or cold areas, it is
advisable to use a "winter" type fuel suited
to low or minus temperatures.

With Stop & Start, never refuel with
the system in STOP mode; you must

switch off the ignition with the key.

QUICK HELP

Battery

    A.   Positive metal point on your vehicle
  B.  Slave battery
  C.   Earth on your vehicle

Charging the battery using a charger

disconnect the battery located in the
front left floor,

follow the instructions for use given by
the battery charger manufacturer,

reconnect starting with the negative (-)
terminal,

check that the terminals and connectors
are clean. If they are covered with
sulphate (white or greenish deposit),
disconnect them and clean them.

The charging operation must be carried
out in a ventilated area away from naked
flames or any possible sources of sparks to
eliminate the risk of explosion and fire.
Do not attempt to charge a frozen battery: it
must first be thawed to eliminate the risks of
explosion. If the battery has frozen, before
charging it have it checked by a specialist
who will check that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the
container is not cracked, which could mean
that there is a risk of a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.
Proceed with a slow charge charge at low
current for a maximum pf about 24 hours to
avoid damaging the battery.

BATTERY

Starting from another battery

connect the red cable to the metal
point A then to the positive (+) terminal
of the slave battery B ,

connect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative (-) terminal of the
slave battery B ,

connect the other end of the green or
black cable to the earth point C on your
vehicle,

operate the starter, let the engine run,

wait for the engine to return to idle, then
disconnect the cables.

Battery

The batteries contain harmful
substances such as sulphuric acid and

lead. They must be discarded in accordance
with the provisions of the law and must not,
in any circumstances, be discarded with
household waste.
Take used batteries to a special collection
point.

It is advisable to disconnect the
negative (-) terminal of the battery if the
vehicle is not to be used for a period of

more than one month.
The description of the battery charging
procedure is given as an indication only.

Before disconnecting the battery, you must
wait for 2 minutes after switching off the
ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Never charge a battery without first
disconnecting the terminals.
Close the windows and doors before
disconnecting the battery.
After every reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. If slight difficulties
are experienced after this, please contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

If the battery has been disconnected
for some time, it may be necessary to
reinitialise the following functions:
-

the display parameters (date, time,
language, distance unit and temperature
unit),

the radio stations,

the central locking.

Some settings are cleared and must be
reprogrammed, consult a PEUGEOT.
If your vehicle is fitted with a tachograph or
an alarm, disconnection of the negative (-)
terminal of the battery (located under the
floor on the left-hand side, in the cab) is
recommended if the vehicle is not to be used
for a period of more than 5 days.

For access to the negative (-) terminal:
press button 2 then pull on connector 1 .

Access to the negative terminal

QUICK HELP

Battery

The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates

the use of a 12 V lead-acid battery with
special technology and specification; the
involvement of a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop is essential when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation may
cause premature wear of the battery.

After refitting the battery by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop, the Stop & Start system will
only be active after a continuous period of
immobilisation of the vehicle, a period which
depends on the climatic conditions and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about
8 hours).

Do not disconnect the battery to
charge it.

PUNCTURE REPAIR KIT

Procedure

Apply the parking brake. Unscrew the
tyre valve cap, remove the filling hose B
and screw the ring E onto the tyre valve,

start the engine,

insert the connector G into the nearest
power socket on the vehicle,

switch on the compressor by placing the
switch F in position I (on),

inflate the tyre to a pressure of 4 bars.

To obtain a more accurate reading, you are
advised to check the pressure value on the
pressure gauge H , with the compressor off.

check that the switch F on the
compressor is in position 0 (off),

This temporary puncture repair kit is located
at the front of the passenger compartment.
It consists of:
-

a cartridge A , containing the sealant
fluid, equipped with:

● a filling hose B ,
● a sticker C indicating "max. 80 km/h",

which the driver must affix in full view
(on the dashboard) after repairing the
tyre,

a quick guide to use of the repair kit,

a compressor D equipped with a
pressure gauge and unions,

adaptors, for the inflation of various
items.

Changing a wheel

152

If a pressure of at least 3 bars is not
reached within 5 minutes, disconnect
the compressor from the valve and the
power socket, then move the vehicle
forward by approximately 10 metres to
distribute the sealant fluid inside the
tyre.

Then repeat the inflating operation:

● if a pressure of at least 3 bars is not

reached within 10 minutes, switch off
your vehicle: the tyre has suffered
too much damage and repair has not
been possible. Consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.

● if the tyre has been inflated to a

pressure of 4 bars , set off again
immediately.

After driving for approximately 10 minutes,
stop and check the pressure of the tyre
again.
Adjust the pressure if necessary and contact
a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.

Checking and adjusting the pressure

The compressor can only be used to check
and adjust the pressure.
-

Disconnect the hose I and connect it to
the tyre valve directly; the cartridge will
then be connected to the compressor
and the filling fluid will not be injected.

If it is necessary to deflate the tyre, connect
the hose I to the tyre valve and press the
yellow button, placed in the centre of the
switch on the compressor.

Replacing the sealant fluid cartridge

To replace the cartridge, carry out the
following operations:
-

disconnect the hose I ,

turn the cartridge to be replaced
anticlockwise and lift it,

insert the new cartridge and turn it
clockwise,

reconnect the hose I and connect the
hose B in its location.

The cartridge contains ethylene-glycol,
a product which is harmful if swallowed
and which causes irritation to the eyes.

Keep out of reach of children.
After use, do not discard the cartridge in the
environment, take it to a PEUGEOT dealer
or to an organisation responsible for its
collection.
This replacement kit is available from
PEUGEOT dealers.
