2 litre HDI 16V engine
- fill the fuel tank with at least five li-tres of diesel,- unclip the style cover to access the repriming pump,- unscrew the degas screw,- squeeze and release the manual repriming pump until diesel is seen escaping via the degas screw,- retighten the degas screw,- operate the starter until the engine starts.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
There are two marks on the dipstick:
A = maximumNever fill past this mark.B = minimum
To maintain the reliability of engines and emission control systems, the use of additives in engine oil is prohibited.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer’s require-ments.
Note: the coolant does not need to be changed.
Dipstick
Cooling system
Use the fluid 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 fitted with a particle emission filter, 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.
* According to engine.
Brake fluid level
Oil level
Oil change
According to the information given in the servicing booklet.
The level should always be above the MIN mark and close to the MAX mark.
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.
For best quality clean-ing and for your safety, we would advise that you use products recommended by PEUGEOT.
Replacement must be car-ried out according to the manufacturer’s servicing schedule.
Use fluids recommended by the manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 standards.
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.

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 filter 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.
Only use products recom-mended by PEUGEOT or products of equivalent quality and characteristics.
To ensure best performance from components as important as the power steering and the braking sys-tem, PEUGEOT selects and offers quite specific products.
To prevent damage to the electrical units, high pressure washing to clean the engine compartment is strictly prohibited.
Oil filterUsed products
Avoid all prolonged contact of the used oil with the skin.
Brake fluid 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.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid or coolant into drains or onto the ground.
Empty the used oil into the containers provided for this purpose in the PEUGEOT network.
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Have the filter elements re-placed regularly. If you drive in dusty conditions, change them twice as often.
Brake pads
It may be necessary to check the thickness of the pads, even between services.
Handbrake
Change the filter regular-ly, in accordance with the servicing schedule.
Manual gearbox
To check the main levels and certain components, in accordance with the manu-facturer’s servicing sched-ule, refer to the pages of the servicing booklet which correspond to your vehicle’s engine.
This does not require an oil change. Have the level checked in accordance with the manu-facturer’s servicing schedule.
