Coolant temperature indicator
System which informs the driver of the
changes in the temperature of the engine coolant while driving.
With the engine running, when the needle
is:
- in zone A , the temperature is correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning

Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
After driving for a few minutes, the temperature and pressure in the cooling
system increase.
To top up the level:
wait for the engine to cool,
unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop,
when the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap,
top up the level to the "MAX" mark
(circular line).
i
On petrol engines, the cooling of
the engine is managed electronically to improve consumption. Consequently, the coolant temperature
levels are no longer simply linked
with the external ambient conditions and the use of the vehicle.
For example, in town, it is normal
for the coolant temperature to be
slightly higher in cold weather than
in hot weather.
20
Maintenance indicator
System which informs the driver when
the next service is due, in accordance with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last indicator zero
reset. It is determined by two parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time elapsed since the last service.
More than 620 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the spanner symbolising
the service operations comes on. The
distance recorder display line indicates
the distance remaining before the next
service is due.
Example: 4 800 miles/km remain be-
fore the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the spanner is switched off ; the
distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The display then indicates
the total and trip distances.
Less than 620 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
Example: 560 miles (900 km) remain
before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the distance recorder resumes
its normal operation. The spanner
remains on to indicate that a service
must be carried out soon.
i
21
Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the spanner fl ashes to
indicate that the service must be carried
out as soon as possible.
Example: the service is overdue by
300 miles/km.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
Maintenance indicator zero reset
5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the distance recorder resumes
its normal operation. The spanner
remains lit .
i
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depending on the driver's driving habits.
Therefore, the spanner may also
come on if you have exceeded the
two year service interval.
After each service, the maintenance
indicator must be reset to zero.
The procedure for resetting to zero is as
follows:
switch off the ignition,
press and hold the trip distance
recorder zero reset button,
switch on the ignition; the distance
recorder display begins a countdown,
when the display indicates "=0" ,
release the button; the spanner disappears.
i
i
Following this operation, if you wish
to disconnect the battery, lock the
vehicle and wait at least fi ve minutes
for the zero reset to be taken into
account.

26
VENTILATION
System which creates and maintains
comfortable conditions in the vehicle's
passenger compartment.
Air treatment
Control panel
Air diffusion
The air circulating in the passenger
compartment is fi ltered and originates
either from the outside via the grille located on the bonnet or from the inside
in air recirculation mode.
The incoming air follows various routes
depending on the controls selected by
the driver:
- direct arrival in the passenger compartment (air intake),
- passage through a heating circuit
(heating),
- passage through a cooling circuit
(air conditioning).
The temperature control enables you to
obtain the level of comfort required by
mixing the air of the various circuits.
The air distribution control enables you
to diffuse the air in the passenger compartment combining several air vents.
The air fl ow control enables you to in-
crease or reduce the speed of the ventilation blower.
The controls of this system are grouped
together on the centre console. Depending on the model, the functions offered are:
- the level of comfort required,
- the air fl ow,
- the air distribution,
- the de-icing and demisting,
- the manual or automatic air conditioning controls.
1. Windscreen de-icing or demisting
vents.
2. Front side window de-icing or de-
misting vents.
3. Side adjustable and closing vents.
4. Central adjustable and closing vents.
5. Air outlets to the front footwells.
6. Lower air outlets (under the front
seats) * .
*
Only operational with automatic air
conditioning.
i
27
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance rules below:
If the interior temperature remains very high after the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a considerable time, do not hesitate to ventilate the
passenger compartment for a few minutes.
Place the air fl ow control at a suffi cient level to provide an adequate re-
newal of air in the passenger compartment.
To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air
intake grille located on the bonnet, the vents and the air passages under
the front seats.
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working order.
Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and
have the fi lter elements replaced regularly (refer to the "Checks" section).
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter.
Thanks to its second special active fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation
of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy
deposits).
To guarantee correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engine power and
therefore improvement of the towing capacity.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of
water under the vehicle which is perfectly normal.
The air conditioning system does
not contain chlorine and does not
present any danger to the ozone
layer.
28
MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING
The air conditioning system can only operate when the engine is running.
Central and side vents.
This setting is recommended for hot
climates.
4. Air intake/Air recirculation
Move the manual control to
the right to the "Interior air
recirculation" position.
Move the manual control to
the left to return to the "Exterior air intake" position.
1. Temperature adjustment
Turn the dial from blue (cold) to red
(hot) to adjust the temperature to
suit your requirements.
2. Air fl ow adjustment
Turn the dial from position 1
to position 4 to obtain an
air fl ow suffi cient to ensure
your comfort.
If you place the air fl ow control in po-
sition OFF (deactivation of the sys-
tem), the temperature is no longer
maintained at a comfortable level.
However, a slight fl ow of air, due to
the movement of the vehicle, can
still be felt.
3. Air distribution adjustment
Windscreen and side windows.
Windscreen, side windows and
footwells.
Footwells.
These settings are recommended for
cold climates.
The intake of exterior air prevents the
formation of condensation on the windscreen and side windows.
The recirculation of interior air prevents
exterior odours and smoke from entering the passenger compartment.
Used simultaneously with the air conditioning, the air recirculation improves its
performance.
Used in a damp climate, the air recirculation may cause condensation to form
on the windows.
Return to exterior air intake mode as
soon as possible to avoid deterioration
of the air quality and prevent condensation.
