FILLING WITH FUEL

The fuel ﬁ ller ﬂ ap is electric, you can

only open it by pressing button A .

Button A is deactivated auto-
matically from 6 mph (10 km/h).

When ﬁ lling with fuel, the

engine must be switched off

with the ignition off:

  Operating fault
A  fuel  gauge  fault  is  indicated  by  the
fuel level indicator needle returning to
zero.
  Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

Fuel warning

 Turn the cap to the left.
 Remove the cap and hang the end

on the hook located on the inside

of the ﬂ ap.

A label afﬁ xed to the inside of the fuel

ﬁ ller ﬂ ap 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 your vehicle to mal-
function.
The capacity of the tank is approxi-

mately 67 litres.


After ﬁ lling the tank, screw on the

cap and close the fuel ﬁ ller ﬂ ap.

Ensure that the fuel ﬁ ller ﬂ ap is

closed correctly.

When

this

warning

light

comes  on  in  certain  driving
conditions  and  depending
on  the  engine,  the  distance
which  can  be  travelled  with
the  fuel  remaining  may  be

less than 30 miles (50 kilometres).
Note: should you run out of fuel, you
must add at least 6 litres.

switching  on  of  the  lights  on  the  left).
This  is  indicated  by  an  audible  sig-
nal  and  lighting  of  the  corresponding
direction  indicator  on  the  instrument
panel for a few seconds.

If the parking lights are activat-
ed when your vehicle switches

is improved considerably.

In cases of malfunction,

the  warning  light  comes  on
on  the  instrument  panel  dis-
play, accompanied by an au-
dible  signal  and  a  message

on the multifunction display. The sys-
tem places your headlamps to the low
position.

HAZARD WARNING LIGHTS

Press the button, the direction indica-

tors ﬂ ash.
They can operate with the ignition off.

Automatic lighting of hazard
warning lights *

When  braking  in  an  emergency,  de-
pending  on  the  deceleration,  the
hazard  warning  lights  come  on  auto-
matically. They switch off automatically

the ﬁ rst time you accelerate.
It is also possible to switch them off by
pressing the button.

* According to country.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY
PROGRAMME (ESP)

The  electronic  stability  programme
(ESP)  incorporates  the  following  sys-
tems:
   -

the anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and the braking system (EBFD),

the emergency braking assistance
system,

the traction control (ASR),

the dynamic stability control (DSC).

  Traction control (ASR)
The ASR system optimises traction in
order to avoid wheel slip by acting on
the  brakes  of  the  driving  wheels  and
on  the  engine.  It  also  improves  the
directional  stability  of  the  vehicle  on
acceleration.

  Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If  there  is  a  difference  between  the
path  followed  by  the  vehicle  and  that
required by the driver, the DSC moni-
tors each wheel and automatically acts
on  the  brake  of  one  or  more  wheels
and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of
the laws of physics.

Operating modes

Definitions

  Emergency braking assistance
system
In  an  emergency,  this  system  ena-
bles you to reach the optimum braking
pressure  more  quickly  and  therefore
reduce the stopping distance.
It  is  triggered  in  relation  to  the  speed
at  which  the  brake  pedal  is  pressed.
This is felt by a reduction in the resis-
tance of the pedal and an increase in
the effectiveness of the braking.

When  this  warning  light
comes  on,  accompanied  by
a  buzzer  and  a  message,  it
indicates that there is a mal-
function  of  the  ABS,  which

can cause a loss of control of the vehi-
cle when braking.

When this warning light comes
on,  connected  to  the   STOP
and   ABS   warning  lights,
accompanied  by  a  buzzer
and  a  message,  it  indicates

that there is a malfunction of the elec-
tronic brake force distribution, which
can cause a loss of control of the vehi-
cle when braking.

Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.

  Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and braking system (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability  of  your  vehicle  when
braking  and  offers  improved  control,
in  particular  on  poor  or  slippery  road
surfaces.
The  ABS  prevents  wheel  lock  in  the
event of emergency braking.
The  braking  system  provides  integral
management  of  the  braking  pressure
wheel by wheel.

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and braking system (EBFD)

Dynamic stability control (DSC)

When changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that
these are approved.
Normal operation of the ABS

may make itself felt by slight vibrations
of the brake pedal.

In emergency braking, press

very ﬁ rmly without relea sing

the pressure.

  Operating fault
When  a  system  malfunction  occurs,
the warning light comes on accompa-
nied  by an  audible signal  and  a mes-
sage on the multifunction display.
Contact  a   PEUGEOT   dealer  to  have
the system checked.

The DSC offers improved
safety during normal driving
but should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks (late

braking) or drive at very high speeds.
Operation  of  the  system  is  guaran-
teed on condition that the manufactu-
rer's instructions regarding the wheels
(tyres  and  rims),  the  braking  compo-
nents, the electronic components and
the  PEUGEOT  network assembly and
maintenance/repair  procedures  are
complied with.
Following an impact, have the system
checked by a  PEUGEOT  dealer.

  Deactivation
In  exceptional  conditions  (starting  the
vehicle when it is stuck in mud, immo-
bilised in snow, on unstable ground…),
it  may  prove  useful  to  deactivate  the
DSC.
      Press  the   "ESP  OFF"   switch,  lo-

cated on the centre console.

The switch light and the indicator light
come on: the DSC no longer acts on

SEAT BELTS

Detection of fastening of the front

seat belts
When the ignition is switched on ,

if a front passenger has not fastened

his seat belt and if the vehicle speed

is below 13 mph (20 km/h) , you are

warned by lighting of the seat belt

warning light .
The warning light switches off when

the seat belt(s) concerned is(are) fas-

tened.
If the vehicle speed is above 13 mph

(20 km/h)

, you are warned by ﬂ ash-

ing of the seat belt warning light , an

audible signal and a message on the

multifunction display locating the un-

fastened seat belt(s).

Front seat belts with
pre-tensioner and force
limiter

In the event of a serious front impact,
the pre-tensioning system instantly

tightens the seat belts ﬁ rmly against

the bodies of the occupants.
The  pre-tensioning  seat  belts  are
armed when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure
of  the  seat  belt  against  the  chest  of
the  occupant,  so  increasing  his  pro-
tection.

Rear seat belts
The rear seats are each ﬁ tted with a

three-point inertia reel seat belt.
These seat belts have a force limiter.

To fasten the seat belts
 Pull the strap, then insert the

tongue into the buckle.

 Check that the seat belt is fastened

correctly by pulling the strap.

To unfasten the seat belts
 Press the red button on the buckle.

Note: a bag or an animal
placed on the front passenger
seat may trigger the lighting of
the warning light.

The  audible  signal  ceases  and  the
warning  light  switches  off  when  the
seat belt concerned is fastened.
After  two  minutes  without  any  action

on the seat belts, the ﬂ ashing warning

light remains on permanently and the
audible signal ceases.
All of the warnings cease when a
door is opened or when the engine is
switched off.
