When the engine is running or the ve-
hicle is moving, the lighting of one of the
following warning lights indicates the
occurrence of a fault requiring interven-
tion on the part of the driver. Central alert.
Lighting is associated with
the displaying of another
warning light:
- punctured wheel,
- braking,
- power steering,
- engine oil pressure,
- coolant temperature,
stop the vehicle immediately and as
safely as possible.
Service.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a problem in one
of the systems which does not
have a specifi c warning light.
In order to identify it, consult the mes-
sage on the multifunction display. Braking.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a fault in one of
the braking systems:
- signifi cant drop in the level in the circuit,
- electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) faulty (simultaneous lighting
of the ABS warning light),
stop the vehicle immediately and as
safely as possible.
When the vehicle is moving, check that
the handbrake is fully released.
Any fault resulting in the displaying
of a warning light must be the sub-
ject of further diagnostics by read-
ing the associated message on the
multifunction display.
Should you encounter any prob-
lems, do not hesitate to contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

Coolant temperature indicator
System which informs the driver of
the changes in the temperature of the
engine coolant while driving. With the engine running, when the
needle is:
- in zone
A , the temperature is
correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning
light 1 and the central STOP warning
light come on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message on
the multifunction display.

You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off
the engine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
After driving for a few minutes, the
tempe rature and pressure in the coo ling
system increase.
To top up the level:

 wait for the engine to cool,

 unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop,

 when the pressure has dropped, remove the cap,

 top up the level to the "MAX" mark.
