8DRIVING

AUDIBLE REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE

This system consists of four proximity sensors, located in the rear bumper.

This detects any obstacle (person, cyclist, vehicle, tree, gate, etc.) behind the vehicle. Nevertheless, it cannot detect obstacles located just below the bumper.

Warning: an object, such as a stake, a roadworks cone or any other similar object detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre may no longer be detected during the manoeuvre.

To make manoeuvres in reverse gear easier, adjust your mirrors in accordance with the "Automatic tilting of the mirrors in reverse gear" function.

Maintenance: ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud, frost or snow.

Activation

The system is activated as soon as reverse gear is engaged; an audible bleep shows that it is active.

The proximity information is given by an audible signal, which becomes more rapid as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.

Your vehicle’s rear speakers emit an audible signal:

-on the right if an obstacle is detected on the right,

-on the left if an obstacle is detected on the left,

-on the right and left if an obstacle is detected in the centre.

When the

distance between the

rear of the

vehicle and the obstacle

is less than approximately twenty-

five centimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous.

Switching the system off

Change to neutral, the system is again inactive.

Deactivation

Press the switch on the centre console.

The indicator light on the switch comes on and the system becomes completely inactive.

If there is an operating fault, on changing to reverse gear a warning light on the instrument panel, an audible signal

and a message on the multifunction display indicate that there is a system malfunction.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

104

TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION

Sensors check the tyre pressure during driving and trigger a warning in the event of malfunction.

Flat tyre

Instrument panel warning light.

This is accompanied by the message on the multifunction display locating the wheel concerned.

Instrument panel display warning light.

This is accompanied by the audible signal and the message on the multifunction display locating the wheel concerned.

If this warning light comes on, have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.

Puncture

This warning light, accompanied by the audible signal and the message on the multi-function display locating the wheel concerned, is followed by illumination of the "STOP" warning light.

Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden movement of the steering wheel and the brakes.

Change the damaged wheel (punctured or very deflated tyre), and have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.

Sensor(s) not detected or faulty

Instrument panel warning light.

Thisisaccompanied by the mesage on the multifunction display which indicates that underinflation detection is absent from one (or several) wheel(s) or that there is a fault in the system.

Instrument panel display warning light.

This is accompanied by the audible signal and the message on the multifunction display which indicates that under-inflation detection is absent from one (or several) wheel(s) or that there is a fault in the system.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the faulty sensor(s).

Note: this message is also displayed when one of the wheels is away from the vehicle (being repaired) or when one or more wheels without a

sensor are fitted.

DRIVING 8

All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fitted with this system must be carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer.

If, when changing a tyre, you install a wheel which is not detected by your vehicle, you must have the system reinitialised by a PEUGEOT dealer.

The tyre under-inflation detection system is an aid to driving which does not replace the need for the driver to be vigilant or to drive responsibly.

This system does not eliminate the need to have the tyre pressure checked regularly (see manufacturer’s label on the door pillar) to ensure that the optimum dynamic performance of the vehicle is maintained and prevent prematurewearofthetyres,particularly in arduous driving conditions (heavy load, high speed).

The tyre pressures must be checked cold, at least once a month. Remember to check the pressure of the spare wheel.

The tyre under-inflation detection system may experience temporary interference due to radioelectric emissions on a frequency close to that used by the system.

CHECKING THE LEVELS

These are normal maintenance operations which keep your vehicle in good working order. Consult the instructions in the PEUGEOT Network, on the Infotec site or in the servicing booklet enclosed with this handbook.

Important: if you have to remove/refit the engine style cover, handle it with care to

clips. avoid damaging the fixing

Oil level

Check the level regularly and top up between changes.

Check the level with the vehicle level, the engine having been off for more than 15 minutes, using the dipstick.

Dipstick

There are two marks on the dipstick:

A = maximum

Never fill past this mark.

B = minimum

To maintain the reliability of engines and emission control systems, the use of additives in engine oil is prohibited.

112

Oil change

It is imperative that this is carried out at the intervals specified and the viscosity of the oil chosen must meet the requirements laid down in the manufacturer’s servicing schedule. Consult the instructions in the PEUGEOT Network or on the Infotec site.

Note: avoid used oil coming into prolonged contact with the skin. Empty the used oil into the containers provided for this purpose in the PEUGEOT Network.

Oil filter

Replace the cartridge regularly in accordance with the recommendations of the servicing schedule.

Brake fluid change

Use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer, which fulfils DOT4 Standards.

It is imperative that the brake fluid is changed at the intervals specified in accordance with the manufacturer’s servicing schedule.

Note: avoid all contact with the skin, the brake fluid is harmful to health and very corrosive.

Cooling system

Use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.

When the engine is warm, the temperature of the coolant is controlled by the engine fan. As this fan can operate with the ignition key removed and because the cooling

system is pressurised, wait for at least one hour after the engine has stopped before carrying out any work.

Slacken the cap by two turns to release the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding. When the pressure has

dropped, remove the cap and top up the level.

Note: the coolant does not need to be changed.

Used oil

Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid or coolant into drains or onto the ground.

Power steering reservoir

Use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.

Open the reservoir, with the engine at ambient temperature. The level should always be above the MIN. mark and close to the MAX. mark.

Windscreen and headlamp wash level

For best quality cleaning and for your safety, to see and be seen, we would advise that you use products of the Universal range recommended by PEUGEOT, of particular benefit if your 407 is fitted with Xenon bulbs.

To prevent damage to the electrical units, avoid washing the engine.

CHECKS

Battery

At the start of winter, have your battery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Air filter and passenger compartment filter

Have the filter elements replaced regularly. If you drive in dusty conditions, change them twice as often.

Particle emission filter (Diesel)

Itisimperativethattheparticleemission filter is maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s servicing schedule, by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Note: following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances, notice emissions of water vapour at the exhaust on acceleration. This does not have any effect on the performance of the vehicle or the environment.

On vehicles which are fitted with a particle emission filter, the fan assembly may operate after the vehicle has stopped, even when the engine is cold.

Brake pads

Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicles which are used in town, over short distances.

It may be necessary to check the thickness of the pads, even between services.

Handbrake

Where the handbrake travel is too great or there is a reduction in the performance of the system, the handbrake

should be adjusted.

Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

To ensure the best performance from components as important as the power steering and the braking system,

the manufacturer selects and offers specific products, only use products recommended by PEUGEOT.

FUEL SUPPLY CUT-OFF (PETROL)*

As a safety precaution, in certain circumstances, a mechanism prevents fuel from reaching the engine.

To re-establish the fuel supply :

press the red button on the angle of the front right-hand suspension assembly, under the bonnet.

CHECKS 9

RUNNING OUT OF FUEL (DIESEL)

If you should run out of fuel, it is necessary to re-prime the circuit.

The repriming pump and the degas screw are located under the bonnet (see corresponding illustration in the technical data section):

10 PRACTICAL INFORMATION

FITTING ROOF BARS (SALOON)

When fitting transverse roof bars, use the four quick-fit fixings provided for this purpose. Lift the concealing flaps and adjust the roof bar quick-fit fixings.

Maximum authorised weight on the roof rack, for a loading height not exceeding 40 cm (with the exception of bicycle carriers): 80 kg.

If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed of the vehicle to the profile of the road to avoid damaging the roof bars and the fixings on the roof.

Be sure to refer to national legisation in order to comply with the regulations for transporting objects which are longer than the vehicle.

FITTING ROOF BARS (407 SW)

When fitting transverse roof bars, ensure that they are positioned correctly.

The correct positions are shown by marks on each of the longitudinal bars.

Use accessories approved by PEUGEOT and follow the manufacturer’s fitting instructions.

Maximum authorised weight on the roof bars, for a loading height not exceeding 40 cm (except bicycle carriers): 100 kg.

If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the speed of the vehicle to the condition of the road, to avoid damaging the roof bars.

Please refer to national legislation to comply with the regulations regarding the transportation of objects which are longer than the vehicle.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...

We recommend the use of original PEUGEOT towbars which have been tested and approved from the design stage of your vehicle and that you entrust the fitting of the towbar to a PEUGEOT dealer.

Driving advice

Distribution of loads: distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest loads are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight is close to the maximum authorised without, however, exceeding it.

Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope increases the coolant temperature.

As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.

In the case of vehicles fitted with an HDI engine, it is advisable, following intensive use (towing on a motorway, prolonged driving,...), to leave the enginerunningatidleforapproximately 20 seconds before switching off the ignition. This limits any increase in the temperature of the engine after it has been switched off.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION 10

In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.

Note: in certain cases of particularly arduous use (towing the maximum load in high temperatures on a steep

slope), the engine automatically limits its power and selects the appropriate automatic gearbox gear in manual mode. In this case, cutting off the air conditioning allows the engine power to be recovered, and therefore the towing capacity to be increased.

If the coolant temperature warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.

Tyres: check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle (label on the central door pillar on the driver’s side) and of the trailer towed, observing the recommended pressure.

Brakes: towing increases the braking distance. Drive at a moderate speed, change down early and brake gradually.

Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is increased. Drive smoothly and at a moderate speed.

Lighting

Manual adjustment

Adjust your headlamps so as not to dazzle other road users. Check the electrical signalling of the trailer.
