Coolant temperature indicator
System which informs the driver of the
changes in the temperature of the engine
coolant while driving.
With the engine running, when the
needle is:
- in zone A , the temperature is correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning
light 1 and the central STOP warn-
ing light come on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message on
the multifunction display.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. After driving for a few minutes, the tem-
perature and pressure in the cooling
system increase.
To top up the level:

 wait for the engine to cool,

 unscrew the cap by two turns to allow
the pressure to drop,

 when the pressure has dropped, re-
move the cap,

 top up the level to the "MAX" mark. Engine oil temperature
indicator
System which informs the driver of the
changes in the temperature of the engine
oil while driving.
With the engine running, when the
needle is:

C , the temperature is correct,
- in zone D , the temperature is too
high; the oil pressure warning light
and the central STOP warning light
come on, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message on the

On petrol engines, the cooling of
the engine is managed electroni-
cally to improve consumption. Con-
sequently, the coolant temperature
levels are no longer simply linked
with the external ambient condi-
tions and the use of the vehicle.
For example, in town, it is normal
for the coolant temperature to be
slightly higher in cold weather than
in hot weather.
