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 pro-
longed contact with the skin.
Empty the used oil into the con-
tainers intended for this purpose
in the PEUGEOT network.
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.
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. For best quality cleaning and to
avoid freezing, this fl uid must
not be topped up or replaced
with water.
To maintain the reliability of engines
and emission control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil is prohibited.

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 recommended
by PEUGEOT or products of equi-
valent quality and specifi cations.
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 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.
Where the parking brake trav-
el 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 manufacturer's
servicing schedule.

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 aero-
sols). - 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 connec- tor onto the valve, keeping it cen-
tralised.
- 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.

CHANGING A WHEEL
Operating procedure for replacing a
faulty wheel with the spare wheel using
the tools provided with the vehicle.
Parking the vehicle
- If possible, park the vehicle on level, stable and non-slippery ground.
- Apply the parking brake, engage fi rst or reverse gear. Access to the spare wheel and
the jack
The wheel is located outside the ve-
hicle, under the boot, supported by a
metal carrier.
- Remove the wheelbrace
1 , secured

on the rear right inner panel of
the boot .
- Using the wheelbrace 1 , slacken the
spare wheel carrier retaining bolt,
located inside the boot under the
carpet .
- Lift the carrier to release the hook rearwards, then lower it.
- Remove the jack storage case 2
located in the spare wheel. Removing a wheel
- Chock the rear of the wheel diagonally
opposite the wheel to be changed.
- Remove the wheel trim using the wheelbrace, by pulling at the valve
passage hole.
- Slacken the wheel bolts.
- Place the jack under the locating point on the sub-frame E that is
closest to the wheel to be changed.
Ensure that the entire surface of the
jack base plate is in contact with the
ground.
- Extend the jack, completely unscrew the bolts and remove the wheel.

Fitting the wheel
- Once the wheel is in place, pre-tight-en it lightly using the wheelbrace.
- Fold the jack and remove it.
- Tighten the bolts using the wheel- brace.
- Refi t the wheel trim starting at the valve passage hole and press with
the palm of the hand. Putting the wheel back in place
- Put the jack storage case back in
the wheel.
- Put the wheel back in the carrier.
- Raise the wheel, then the carrier and reposition the hook.
- Do not forget to retighten the spare wheel carrier retaining bolt fully.
- Stow the wheelbrace. For your safety, always change a
wheel:
- on level, stable and non slip-
pery ground,
- with the parking brake applied, ignition off,
- with fi rst or reverse gear en- gaged,
- with the vehicle chocked,
- you must ensure that the oc- cupants get out of the vehicle
and wait in a safe location,
- never go underneath a vehicle raised using a jack (use an
axle stand).
The jack and all of the tools are
specifi c to your vehicle. Do not
use them for other purposes.
After changing the wheel
- Have the tightening of the bolts and the pressure of the
spare tyre checked as soon
as possible by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
- Have the punctured tyre re- paired and replace it on the
vehicle as soon as possible.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF ALLOY WHEELS
Bolt covers
Alloy wheel bolts are covered by chrome
trims.
Use the yellow tool 4 to remove the
trims before slackening the bolts.
The yellow tool 4 is located:
- in the glove box or,
- in the jack storage case. Fitting the spare wheel
If your vehicle is equipped with a steel
spare wheel, when fi tting it, it is
normal
to notice that the bolt washers do not
come into contact with the rim. The
spare wheel is secured by the cone
shape of each bolt.
Fitting snow tyres
If you fi t snow tyres that are mounted on
steel rims on your vehicle, it is essential
that you use special bolts available from
PEUGEOT dealers.
