PEUGEOT Boxer Handbook page 22

Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bottom 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 refit 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 filter, air filter...) and observe the
schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any
rd
overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel
consumption settle down to a consistent
average.
