CHECKS
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.
* According to engine.

CHECKS
CHECKS
Where the handbrake travel
is too great or there is a re-
duction in the performance
of the system, the hand-
brake should be adjusted,
even between services.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
It is imperative that the particle emis-
sion i lter is maintained in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, by a PEUGEOT dealer. Brake pad wear depends
on the style of driving, in
particular for vehicles which
are used in town, over short
distances.
Disc and drum wear status
For any information relating to the wear
status of the surfaces of the discs and
drums, contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Oil filter
Used products
Avoid all prolonged contact of the
used oil with the skin.
Brake l uid is harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Note: 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.
Battery
At the start of winter, have
your battery checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Have the i lter elements
replaced regularly. If you
drive in dusty conditions,
change them twice as of-
ten.
Brake pads
Handbrake
Change the i lter regular-
ly, in accordance with the
servicing schedule.
Manual gearbox
This does not require an oil
change. Have the level checked
in accordance with the manu-
facturer's servicing schedule.

Do not dispose of used oil,
brake l uid or coolant into drains
or onto the ground.
Empty the used oil into the con-
tainers provided for this purpose
in the PEUGEOT network.
It may be necessary to check
the thickness of the pads, even
between services.

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
engine.
Only use products recommend-
ed by PEUGEOT or products of
equivalent quality and charac-
teristics.
To ensure best performance
from components as important
as the power steering and the
braking system, PEUGEOT se-
lects and offers quite specii c
products.
To prevent damage to the electri-
cal units, high pressure washing
to clean the engine compart-
ment is strictly prohibited .

QUESTIONSOLUTION
RESPONSE
The stored stations do
not function (no sound,
87.5 Mhz is displayed...) An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND AST button to return to the
waveband (AM, FM1, FM2, FMAST) on which the
stations are stored.
The trafic announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do
not receive any trafic
information.Tune to a radio station which broadcasts trafic
information.
The radio station is not part of the regional trafi
c information network.
The quality of reception
of the radio station
listened to gradually
deteriorates or the
stored stations do
not function (no
sound, 87.5 Mhz is
displayed...). The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by
the station listened to or
there is no transmitter in the geographical area th rough which the vehicle
is travelling.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basemen t car parks...) block
reception, including in RDS mode.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for examp le when going
through a car wash or into an underground car park) .Activate the RDS function to enable the system
to check whether there is a more powerful
transmitter in the geographical area.
This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1
to 2 seconds in radio
mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches f
or any frequency
permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon
is too frequent and always on the same route.
With the engine off,
the audio equipment
switches off after a few
minutes of use. When the engine is switched off, the audio equipmen
t operating time
depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switc hes to economy mode
and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehi cle's battery.Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery
charge.
The message "the audio
system is overheated"
appears on the display. Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
In order to protect the installation if the surroun
ding temperature is too
high, the audio equipment switches to an automatic thermal protection
mode leading to a reduction of the volume or stoppi ng of the playing of
the CD.
