V6 406 manual

[Andy C]

Is there anybody who has an electronic copy(or knows where to download one) of the 406 V6 drivers guide.
It is for the 1999 model.

Just bought one, no handbook, trying to work out controls etc.

p.s. I bought the 406 to slow me down, as I already had a 306, how many people do that?

I've had the auto since new and never found a manual. However, I think there is/was a French version around.

A man doesn't get a 3 LITRES V6 to slow down, I think.... ;-)

Hi Andy,

What do you need to know?

There is no "soft copy" AFAIK. Nor is there one for Service. I have a paper copy of the user's manual for a 406SV ie V6. Maybe I can scan in a few pages for you.

Not possible in a 406SV unless it has Cruise Control <BG>

Compared to a 700kg 140BHP piece of fibre glass it is a little slower to 60.

It looks so stupid quoting metric weight and imperial power but I can't remember the exact conversions.

Also compared to my old S16 driving, I drive slower because I can get closer to the S16's limits of power etc on Uk roads , but it's difficult to find anywhere in East Anglia whee you could push the 406 to the limit if you wanted to.
And no-where legally anyway.

Hi,

It looks so stupid quoting metric weight and imperial power but I can't remember the exact conversions.

1 HP (DIN) is 736W, 1BHP is 746W, hence the little difference between HPs and BHPs.

I was actually thinking of the SI measurement Kw rather that HP, or I could convert the weight to lbs
