CHECKING LEVELS
Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Brake fluid level
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.
Oil level The reading will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for
more than 15 minutes.
The check is carried out either when the
ignition is switched on using the oil level
indicator on the instrument panel, or us-
ing the dipstick. The brake fl uid level should be
close to the "MAX" mark. If it is
not, check the brake pad wear.
Changing the fl uid
Refer to the Warranty and Maintenance
Record for details of the interval for this
operation.
Power steering fluid level The power steering fl uid level
should be close to the "MAX"
mark. Unscrew the cap, with
the engine cold, to check the
level. Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
In the case of vehicles fi tted with
headlamp washers, the minimum
level of this fl uid is indicated by an
audible signal and a message on
the multifunction screen.
Top up the level when you stop the vehicle. Engine oil change
Refer to the Warranty and Maintenance
Record for details of the interval for this
operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must correspond to your engine
and conform to the manufacturer's recom-
mendations. Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and
fulfi l the DOT4 standards.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up with or replaced with water.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the tempera-
ture of the coolant is regulated by the fan.
This can operate with the ignition off.

On vehicles which are fi tted with a
particle emission fi lter, the fan may
operate after the vehicle has been
switched off, even if the engine is
cold. Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.
When working under the bon-
net, take care, as certain areas
of the engine may be extremely
hot (risk of burns).

CHECKS
163
Avoid prolonged contact of
used oil or fl uids with the skin.
Most of these fl uids are harm-
ful to health or indeed very
corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fl u-
ids into sewers or onto the
ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer
(France) or an authorised waste dis-
posal site.
Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle emission
filter)
A low additive level is indicated by lighting
of the service warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible warning and a message on
the multifunction screen.

Battery
The battery does not require
any maintenance.
However, check that the ter-
minals are clean and correctly
tightened, particularly in sum-
mer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery,
refer to the "Practical information" sec-
tion for details of the precautions to be
taken before disconnecting the battery
and following its reconnection.
Air filter
Refer to the Warranty and
Maintenance Record for de-
tails of the replacement inter-
vals for these components.
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the use of
the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace
them twice as often if necessary (re-
fer to the "Engines" paragraph). Particle emission filter (Diesel)
It is imperative that the maintenance of
the particle emission fi lter is carried out
by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Oil filter Replace the oil fi lter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the Warranty and
Maintenance Record for details
of the replacement interval for
this component. Following prolonged opera-
tion of the vehicle at very low
speed or at idle, you may, in
exceptional circumstances, notice the
emission of water vapour at the ex-
haust on acceleration. This does not
affect the behaviour of the vehicle or
the environment.
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by a
PEUGEOT dealer without delay.
Dust filter/Anti-odour filter
(activated carbon)
Your vehicle is fi tted with a fi lter which
traps certain dust and limits odours in
the ventilation and air conditioning.
Refer to the Warranty and Maintenance
Record for its replacement interval.
Do not hesitate to change it if you notice
unpleasant odours, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
A clogged passenger compartment fi lter
may reduce the performance of the air
conditioning system and produce un-
pleasant odours.
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance with
the Warranty and Maintenance Record
and according to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.

and specifi cations.
In order to optimise the opera-
tion of units as important as the brak-
ing system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specifi c products.
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compartment is
strictly prohibited .
Brake disc wear status
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the
style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It
may be necessary to have the
condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
For information relating to
checking the brake disc wear
status, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
