CHECKING THE LEVELS
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. Maximum
consumption is 0.5 l per 600 miles
(1000 km).
Carry out this check with the
vehicle level, engine cold, using
the oil level gauge on the instru
ment panel or the dipstick.
Dipstick There are two marks
on the dipstick:
A= maximum
Never fill past this
mark.
B = minimum
To maintain the reliabi
lity of engines and
emission control sys
tems, the use of addi
tives in engine oil is
prohibited.
Oil change
According to the information given in
'PEUGEOT SERVICING'.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION 137
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require
ments.
Brake and clutch fluid level:
– The level must always be between
the DANGER and MAXIMUM
marks in the reservoir.
– If the level drops substantially, contact a PEUGEOT dealer imme
diately.
Fluid change:
– must be carried out according to the manufacturer's servicing schedule,
– use fluids approved by the manu facturer, which fulfil DOT4 stan
dards.
WARNING: brake and clutch fluid is
harmful to health and very corrosive.
Used oil
Prevent used oil from coming into
prolonged contact with the skin.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake and
clutch fluid or coolant into drains or
onto the ground. Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the engi
ne cold. The level should always
be above the MINI mark and close
to the MAXI mark.
Windscreen and headlamp
wash reservoir
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we recommend that you use
products approved by PEUGEOT
(reservoir capacity 4 litres or 6.5
litres with headlamp wash).

CHECK
...
Battery
At the start of winter, have your bat
tery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Air filter and pollen filter
Have the filter elements replaced
regularly. If you drive in dusty con
ditions, change them twice as
often.
Particulate emission filter
Additive reservoir (Diesel
models)
It is essential the particulate emis
sion filter be maintained and the
additive reservoir be filled by a PEU
GEOT dealer, according to the man
ufacturer's servicing schedule.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the
style of driving, in particular for vehi
cles which are used in town, over
short distances . It may be neces
sary to check the thickness of the
pads, even between services. Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services. Have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Manual gearbox
This does not need an oil change.
Check the level, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Automatic gearbox
This does not need an oil change.
Have the level checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly, in accor
dance with the servicing schedule.
Fuel supply cutoff
In a serious collision, a mechanism
prevents fuel from reaching the
engine.
To reestablish the fuel supply:
 press the red button on the angle
of the front righthand suspension
assembly, under the bonnet..
Only use products
approved by Automobiles
PEUGEOT.
To ensure best perfor
mance from components as
important as the power steering
and the braking system,
PEUGEOT selects and offers
quite specific products.

TYRE UNDERINFLATION
DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure
during driving, and trigger a warning
in the event of malfunction (speed
greater than 15mph [25 km/h]).
Flat tyreWhen this warning light
comes on, accompanied by
an audible signal and the
message 'Tyre pressure
low' on the multifunction
display, have the tyre pressure
checked as soon as possible.
Puncture
This warning light, accom
panied by an audible signal
and the message 'Punc
tured tyre(s) detected' on
the multifunction display, is
followed by illumination of the
'STOP' warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding any sud
den movement of the steering wheel
and the brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured or
very deflated) tyre, and have the tyre
presure checked as soon as possible.
Note: if the damaged tyre is tem
porarily stored in the boot, it will
again emit this message to remind
you of the necessity of having it
repaired. This will prevent another
warning of the same type being dis
played. Sensor(s) not detected
This warning light, accom
panied by an audible signal
and the message ' X tyre
pressure sensor(s) miss
ing ' on the multifunction
display, indicates that underinflation
detection is absent from one (or sev
eral) tyre(s).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to
replace the faulty sensor(s).
Note: this message is also displayed
when one of the tyres is away from
the vehicle (being repaired) or when
a wheel without a sensor is fitted.
LES INFORMATIONS PRATIQUES
All repairs and changing
of tyres on a wheel fitted
with this system must be
carried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
The tyre underinflation detec
tion system is an aid to driving
which does not replace the
need for the driver to be vigilant
or to drive responsibly.
This system does not remove the
necessity for having the tyre pres
sure (including that of the spare
wheel) checked regularly, to
ensure optimum dynamic perfor
mance of the vehicle and to pre
vent premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in the case of arduous
driving conditions (heavy load,
high speed).
The system may temporarily be
disturbed by radio broadcasts on
a frequency close to it.

tion. This helps to keep the boot
floor in its correct position, to pre
vent any deformation of the floor
when loaded.
Tighten the spare wheel securing
strap to prevent noise and for your
safety in the event of impact. For your safety, always
change the wheel:
– on level, stable, nonslippery
ground,
– with the handbrake applied,
– with first or reverse gear engaged (position Pfor the
automatic gearbox),
Never go underneath a vehicle
which is supported only by a
jack (use a ramp).
After changing the wheel:
– have the tightening of the bolts and the tyre pressure checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
– have the punctured wheel repaired and refit it to the vehi
cle as soon as possible.
Tyres fitted with the Tyre Under
Inflation Detection System.
These wheels have a pressure
sensor. Have them repaired by a
PEUGEOT dealer.

Special features of alloy wheels*
Bolt covers
Alloy wheel bolts are covered by
chrome trims.
Use tool7to remove the trims before
slackening the bolts. Antitheft bolts*
If your wheels are fitted with an anti
theft bolt (one per wheel), the
chrome trim and then the plastic
cover must be removed using tool
7,
before unscrewing the bolt using one
of the two antitheft sockets (which
were given to you on delivery of your
vehicle along with the duplicate keys
and the confidential card) and the
wheel brace 1.
Note: make a careful note of the
code number engraved on the head
of the antitheft socket. This will
enable you to obtain duplicate anti
theft sockets from a Peugeot dealer.

Fitting the spare wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with a steel
spare wheel, when fitting it, it is
nor
mal to notice when tightening the
bolts that the washers do not come
into contact with the rim. The spare
wheel is secured by the coneshape
of each bolt.
Fitting snow tyres
If you fit snow tyres mounted on steel
wheels to your vehicle, it is essential
to use special bolts available from
your PEUGEOT dealer.
