Wherever you are seated in
the vehicle, always fasten
your seat belt, even for
short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles
as they will not fulil their role fully.
If the seats have armrests*, the lap
part of the seat belt must always
pass under the armrest.
Before and after use, ensure that
the seat belt is rolled up correctly.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the body as possible,
- must restrain one adult only,
- must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- must not be twisted,
- must not be transformed or modiied. Clean the seat belt straps with soapy
water or a textile cleaning product,
sold by PEUGEOT dealers.
After folding or moving a seat or rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
is positioned and rolled up correctly.
Recommendations for child seats:
- use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old
or shorter than one metre ifty,
- do not use the strap-guide* when a child seat is installed. Depending on the nature and
seriousness of the impacts
,
the pre-tensioning device may be
triggered before and independently
of the air bags.
In all cases, the air bag warning
light comes on.
Following an impact, have the
seat belts system checked,
and if necessary replaced, by a
PEUGEOT dealer.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
Oil level
F Check the level regularly and
top up between changes. The
maximum consumption is 0.5 l
per 600 miles (1000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle
level, engine cold, using the oil level
gauge on the instrument panel or the
dipstick.
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A = maximum
Never ill past this mark.
B = minimum
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil
is prohibited.
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
Note: avoid used oil coming
into prolonged contact with the
skin. Empty the used oil into the
containers intended for this purpose
in the PEUGEOT network.
Brake luid level:
- The brake luid must be changed according to the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
- Use luids recommended by the manufacturer, which fulil DOT4
standards.
Note: brake luid is harmful to health
and very corrosive. Avoid all contact
with the skin. Used oil
Do not dispose of used oil, brake
luid or coolant into drains or onto
the ground.
Dipstick
* According to country.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require-
ments.
Cooling system
Use the luid 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.
For vehicles equipped with a
particle ilter, the engine fan may
operate after the ignition has
been switched off, even when the
engine is cold. Power steering reservoir
F
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, we would advise that
you use products recommended by
PEUGEOT.
Diesel additive level (Diesel)
If a message on the multifunction
display indicates a low diesel additive
level accompanied by an audible
signal, this additive must be topped
up. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as
soon as possible.

RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
(DIESEL)
If you should run out of fuel, it is
necessary to re-prime the circuit:
1.4 litre HDI engine
- ill the fuel tank with at least ive litres of diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual re-priming pump, until fuel appears
in the transparent pipe under the
bonnet,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
1.6 litre HDI 16V engine
- ill the fuel tank with at least ive litres of diesel,
- unclip the style cover to gain access to the re-priming pump,
- squeeze and release the manual re-priming pump, until fuel appears
in the transparent pipe with the
green connector,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your
battery checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Oil ilter
Change the ilter regularly, in accord-
ance with the servicing schedule.
Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT
or products of equivalent
quality and speciications.
To ensure best performance from
components as important as the
power steering and the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers quite speciic products.
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, avoid washing the engine.
Air ilter and passenger
compartment ilter
Have the ilter elements replaced
regularly. If you drive in dusty
conditions, change them twice as
often.
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, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Manual gearbox
This does not require an oil change.
Check the level in accordance
with the manufacturer’s servicing
schedule.
To check the main levels and cer-
tain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer’s servicing
schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corre-
spond to your vehicle’s engine.Particle ilter (Diesel)
The maintenance of the particle ilter
must be carried out by a PEUGEOT
dealer in accordance with the
manufacturer’s servicing schedule.
Note: following prolonged operation
of the vehicle at very low speed
or at idle, you may, in exceptional
circumstances, notice discharges
of water vapour at the exhaust on
acceleration. This does not have any
adverse effect on the behaviour of
the vehicle or on the environment.
