CHECKING THE LEVELS
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A = maximum
Never ill past this mark.
B = minimum
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected
must meet the manufacturer's
requirements.
Power steering reservoir
Remove the style trim* (see §
"Changing a bulb - Front lights").
Open the reservoir, with the engine at
ambient temperature. The level should
always be above the MIN. mark and
close to the MAX. mark.
Dipstick 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. This fan can operate
with the ignition off.
In the case of vehicles itted with
a particle emission ilter, the fan
can operate after the vehicle has
stopped, even when the engine is
cold.
In addition, as 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. 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
If the service warning light comes on,
accompanied by a message and an
audible signal, this indicates a low
diesel additive level.
This additive must be topped up.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
Brake luid level
Replacement must be carried out
according to the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
Use luids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulil DOT4
standards.
* According to engine.
** According to country.
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up
between changes. The maximum
consumption is 0.5 l per 600 miles
(1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle
level, engine cold, using the oil level
gauge on the instrument panel or the
dipstick.
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil is
prohibited.

Used products
Avoid all prolonged contact of the
used oil with the skin.
Brake luid is harmful to health and
very corrosive.
CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your
battery checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Oil ilter
Change the ilter regularly, in
accordance with the servicing
schedule.

following prolonged operation
of the vehicle at very low speed or at
idle, you may, in exceptional cases,
notice discharges of water vapour
at the exhaust on acceleration. This
has no effect on the behaviour of the
vehicle or on the environment.
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. To check the main levels and
certain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, refer to the pages
of the servicing booklet which
correspond to your vehicle's

units, high pressure washing of
the engine compartment is strictly
prohibited .
Manual gearbox
This does not require an oil
change. Have the level checked in
