 A label indicates which type of fuel to 

use. 
 When you fi ll your tank, do not con-

tinue after the third cut-off of the 

pump. This could cause engine mal-

functions. 
  The capacity of the tank is approx-

imately 55 litres for petrol engines 

and 60 litres for Diesel engines.   

 From the time this light comes on, 

you have enough fuel left to cover 

 approximately 30 miles (50 km) . 
  Note:  the right-hand sliding side door 

cannot be opened while the fuel fi ller 

cap is removed.

FAMILIARISATION -

ECO-DRIVING

 Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO

2

 emissions. 

  Optimise the use of your 

gearbox 

  With a manual gearbox, move off 

gently, change up without waiting 

and drive by changing up quite soon. 

If your vehicle has the system, the 

gear effi ciency indicator invites you 

to change up; it is displayed in the 

instrument panel, follow its instruc-

tions.  

  With an automatic or electronic gear-

box, stay in Drive  "D"  or Auto  "A" , 

according to the type of gearbox, 

without pressing the accelerator ped-

al heavily or suddenly.   

  Drive smoothly 

  Maintain a safe distance between vehi-

cles, use engine braking rather than the 

brake pedal, and press the accelerator 

progressively. These practices contrib-

ute towards a reduction in fuel consump-

tion and CO

2

 emissions and also helps 

reduce the background traffi c noise.  

  If your vehicle has cruise control, 

make use of the system at speeds 

above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the 

traffi c is fl owing well.   

  Control the use of your 

electrical equipment 

  Before moving off, if the passenger 

compartment is too warm, ventilate it 

by opening the windows and air vents 

before using the air conditioning. 
 Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the 

windows and leave the air vents 

open. 
 Remember to make use of equipment 

that can help keep the temperature 

in the passenger compartment down 

(sunroof and window blinds...). 
 Switch off the air conditioning, unless 

it has automatic digital regulation, as 

soon as the desired temperature is at-

tained. 
 Switch off the demisting and defrosting 

controls, if not automatic. 
 Switch off the heated seat as soon as 

possible.  

  Switch off the headlamps and front 

foglamps when the level of light does 

not require their use.  

  Avoid running the engine before moving 

off, particularly in winter; your vehicle will 

warm up much faster while driving.  

  As a passenger, if you avoid con-

necting your multimedia devices 

(fi lm, music, video game...), you will 

contribute towards limiting the con-

sumption of electrical energy, and so 

of fuel. 
 Disconnect your portable devices be-

fore leaving the vehicle.   

FAMILIARISATION

18 -

  Limit the causes of excess 

consumption 

  Spread loads throughout the vehicle; 

place the heaviest items in the bot-

tom of the boot, as close as possible 

to the rear seats. 
 Limit the loads carried in the vehicle 

and reduce wind resistance (roof bars, 

roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). 

Use a roof box in preference. 
 Remove roof bars and roof racks after 

use.  

  At the end of winter, remove snow 

tyres and refi t your summer tyres.   

  Observe the recommendations 

on maintenance 

  Check the tyre pressures regularly, 

when cold, referring to the label in the 

door aperture, driver's side. 
 Carry out this check in particular: 
   -  

before a long journey, 

  -  

at each change of season, 

  -  

after a long period out of use.  

 Don't forget the spare wheel and the 

tyres on any trailer or caravan.  

  Have your vehicle serviced regularly 

(engine oil, oil fi lter,  air  fi lter...)  and 

observe the schedule of operations 

recommended by the manufacturer.    

  When refuelling, do not continue after 

the 3 rd  cut-off of the nozzle to avoid 

any overfl ow.  

  At the wheel of your new vehicle, 

it is only after the fi rst  1 800 miles 

(3 000 kilometres) that you will see 

the fuel consumption settle down to 

a consistent average.

  Engine oil level indicator 

 When the ignition is switched on, 

the engine oil level is indicated for 

approximately 10 seconds, after the 

service information. 

 Flashing of the six squares and the 

display of "max" indicate that the oil 

level is too high, which could damage 

the engine. 
 If the excess oil is confi rmed by a 

check using the dipstick, contact a 

PEUGEOT dealer without delay.  

 Your PEUGEOT dealer carries out 

this operation after each service. 
 The reset procedure is as follows: 
   -  

Switch off the ignition. 

  -  

Press and hold button  1 . 

  -  

Switch on the ignition.  

 The display begins a 10 second count-

down. 
   -  

Keep button  1  pressed for 10 seconds.  

 The display shows  [=0]  and the span-

ner disappears.   

 Flashing of the six bars and the dis-

play of "min" indicate that the oil level 

is too low, which could damage the 

engine. 
 If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a 

check using the dipstick, it is essen-

tial that the level is topped up.  

 Flashing of the six bars indicates a 

malfunction of the oil level indicator. 
 There is a risk of damage to the 

engine. 
 Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. 
  The level read on the dipstick or on 

the indicator will only be correct if 

the vehicle is on level ground and 

the engine has been off for more 

than 30 minutes.

 It switches off automatically after 

approximately twelve minutes. 
 Pressing the control again  switches 

the de-icing system on again for

the twelve minutes have elapsed.   

  Advice on operation 

 Select the air distribution most suited 

to your requirements and the climatic 

conditions. 
 Gradually adjust the temperature 

setting for your comfort. 
 Position the air control in the ''Outside 

Air'' position. 
 For perfectly even air distribution, 

take care not to obstruct the exterior 

air intake grille and the vents. Check 

that the passenger compartment fi lter 

is in good condition. 
 When the engine is cold, to prevent 

too great a distribution of cold air, the 

ventilation will increase to its opti-

mum level gradually. 
 In order to be effective, the air condi-

tioning ( A/C  button), should only be 

used with the windows closed. 
 If the interior temperature remains 

very high following a prolonged period 

parked in the sun, do not hesitate to 

ventilate the passenger compartment 

for a few minutes.
