In this video, you can see how to charge the electric version of the Peugeot 208: the vehicle comes with a cable that you will connect to the wallbox on one side, while the other side must be connected to the socket located behind the flap where the fuel filler is on petrol models.

The green flashing light will immediately turn on, indicating that the vehicle has started its charging cycle; this operation can be done at any Shuco socket you have at home, using the appropriate cable (included).

You can also set delayed charging to avoid overloading your home system or to take advantage of cheaper rates: press the button on the outside of the control panel, set the time, connect the cable, and press the button next to the socket to give the input.

The air conditioning is certainly the service that consumes the most energy, but you can programme the ideal temperature of the vehicle so that it is ready in the morning, utilising energy from the grid.

All these operations can also be done via the "my Peugeot" app.

How to Replace the Glow Plugs in the Fiat Ducato 2.3 Multijet?

Glow plugs, as the name suggests, raise the temperature of the engine in diesel vehicles to allow for easier starting. The manufacturer, in this case, Fiat for the Ducato 2.3 Multijet, specifies how often they should be replaced, and a warning light will illuminate when it's time. This work is carried out under the bonnet. First, remove the upper engine cover, then lift the coil and, using a socket wrench of the appropriate size, unscrew the glow plug to remove it from the base, followed by installing the new one.
