CHECKING THE LEVELS
There are two marks on
the dipstick:

A = maximum
Never i ll past this mark.

B = minimum
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
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 l uid recommended by the
manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. This fan can oper-
ate with the ignition off.

In the case of vehicles i tted with
a particle emission i lter, 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 re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.
Windscreen and headlamp
wash level
Diesel additive level (Diesel
with particle emission filter)
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 fluid level
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require-
ments.
Oil level

Note: the coolant does not need to
be changed.
The level should always be
above the MIN mark and
close to the MAX mark. Replacement must be car-
ried out according to the
manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
Use l uids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fuli l DOT4
standards.
Check the level regularly
and top up between chang-
es. The maximum consump-
tion 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 dip-
stick.

For best quality cleaning and
for your safety, we would advise
that you use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT.

To maintain the reliability of
engines and emission control
systems, the use of additives in
engine oil is prohibited.
