CHECKING THE LEVELS Brake fluid level Used oil
Oil level


Check the level regularly
and top up between chang-
es. The maximum consump-
tion is 0.5 litre per 600 miles
(1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the dipstick. This fl uid must always be at the
maximum level.
The brake fl uid must be changed
according to the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
Use fl uids recommended by the manu-
facturer, which fulfi l DOT4 standards.

Note : brake fl uid is harmful to health
and very corrosive. Avoid all contact
with the skin.
Cooling system
Dipstick
There are two marks on the
dipstick:

A = maximum
Never fi ll past this mark.

B = minimum
Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the engine at
ambient temperature. The level should
always be above the MIN. mark and
close to the MAX. mark.
Oil change
According to the information given in
the Warranty and Maintenance Record.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil used must meet the
manufacturer's requirements. Windscreen wash level
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 (France) or take it to an au-
thorised waste disposal site.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake
fl uid or coolant into drains or onto
the ground.
This fl uid must always be at the
maximum level (circular line).
Use the fl uid recommended by
the manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tempera-
ture 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.

For vehicles fi tted with a particle
emissions fi lter, the cooling fan may
continue to run after stopping the ve-
hicle, even when the engine is cold.
Also, as the cooling system operates
under pressure, wait at least one hour
after switching off the engine before do-
ing anything. For best quality cleaning and to
avoid freezing, this fl uid must
not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
To maintain the reliability of engines
and emission control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil is prohibited. Slacken the cap by two turns to release
the pressure to prevent any risk of scald-
ing. When the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap and top up the level.

Note: the coolant does not need to be
changed.

CHECKS
Check these components, or have them
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer, in ac-
cordance with the servicing booklet and
in relation to your engine.
Battery
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Brake pads Parking brake
Brake disc/drum wear
Oil filter
Manual gearbox
Only use products recommend-
ed by PEUGEOT or products of
equivalent quality and specifi ca-
tions.
At the start of winter, have
your battery checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Have the fi lter elements re-
placed regularly.
If you drive
in dusty conditions, change
them twice as often.
Brake pad wear depends on
the style of driving, in particu-
lar for vehicles which are used
in town, over short distances.
It may be necessary to check the thick-
ness of the pads, even between ser-
vices. Where the parking brake travel
is too great or there is a re-
duction in the performance of
the system, the parking brake
should be adjusted, even be-
tween services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
For any information relating to
checking the wear of the brake
discs and/or drums, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Change the fi lter regularly, in
accordance with the servicing
schedule.
This does not require an oil
change. Check the level in ac-
cordance with the manufactur-
er's servicing schedule.
* According to version.
Diesel fuel additive level (Diesel
with particle emission filter)
The low level of this additive is
indicated by the display of this
warning lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and a mes-
sage in the screen * .
When it occurs with the engine running,
this indicates the start of saturation of
the particle emissions fi lter (exception-
ally extended urban driving: low speeds,
long jams...).
As soon as the traffi c conditions permit,
regenerate the fi lter by driving at a speed
of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) for at least
fi ve minutes (until the message disap-
pears and the warning lamp goes off).
During regeneration of the particle emis-sions fi lter, the noise of relays operating
may be heard in the dashboard.
If the warning lamp stays on, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

TEMPORARY REPAIR OF
A TYRE
Vehicles which are not equipped with a
spare wheel have two tyre repair aero-
sols stored in an insulated storage box
in the boot.
(See also the instructions on the
aerosols). - Remove the foreign body if possible.
- Position the wheel so that the valve
is vertical to the ground.
- Shake the aerosol vigorously before use. (In very cold weather, warm the
aerosol for a few minutes in your
hands).
- Fix the aerosol’s fl exible con- nector onto the valve, keeping it
centralised.
- Hold the valve against the hole in the wheel rim.
- Empty the 2 aerosols one after the other, held upright, until the tyre is
saturated (no further fl ow visible in
the connector)
- Remove the connector and immedia- tely drive at least 3 miles (5 km),

at moderate speed .
- If possible, check the pressure of the tyre.
- Then immediately drive at moderate
speed to the nearest garage. The aerosol cans enable you to
carry out a temporary repair (maxi-
mum speed 50 mph (80 km/h)).
After use, have the vehicle exam-
ined by a professional who will
assess whether the tyre can be
repaired or must be replaced.
As the aerosol cans are pres-
surised, they must not be exposed
to a temperature above 50 °C.
Store them away from heat in
their insulated storage box.
