CHECKS
CHECKING THE LEVELS

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").

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.

as possible.

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

Check the level regularly
and top up between chang-
es. The maximum consump-
tion is 0.5 l per 600 miles
