Cooling system
Only use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging your
engine.
When the engine is warm, the temperature
of the coolant is controlled by the engine
fan. As this fan can operate with the ignition
key removed and because 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 1/4 of a turn to release
the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level with coolant.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by
a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the expansion bottle. If
more than 1 litre of fluid is required to top
up the level, have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap
integrated with the gauge and check the
level which must be between the MIN and
MAX marks.

For best quality cleaning and for your safety,
we would advise that you use products of
the PEUGEOT Universal range.
the service warning light is switched off).
During regeneration of the particle emission
filter, relay noise may be heard under the
fascia.
If the message is still displayed and the
service warning light remains on, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Topping up
It is imperative that this additive is topped up
by a PEUGEOT dealer without delay.
Used oil
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil with the
skin.
Brake fluid is harmful to health and very
corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid or
coolant into drains or into the ground but
into the containers dedicated to this use at
PEUGEOT dealerships.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle emission filter)
The minimum level of this
additive is indicated by lighting
of the service warning light,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display.
When this occurs with the engine running,
this is due to the start of saturation of
the particle emission filter (exceptionally
prolonged urban driving conditions: low
speed, long traffic jams, ...).
In order to regenerate the filter, you are
advised to drive at a speed of more than
40 mph (60 km/h) as soon as possible, when
traffic conditions permit, for at least five
minutes (until the message disappears and

Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of
driving, in particular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short distances.
It may be necessary to check the thickness
of the pads, even between services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a drop
in the brake fluid level indicates that the
brake pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear status
For any information relating to checking
the brake disc/drum wear status, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
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.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly, in accordance
with the servicing schedule. Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer ’s servicing schedule.
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 recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and characteristics.
In order to optimise the operation of units as
important as the braking circuit, PEUGEOT
selects and offers specific products.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical
units, high pressure washing to clean the
engine compartment is strictly prohibited.
Carbon filter and passenger
compartment filter
The carbon filter permits continuous and
effective filtering of dust.
If the passenger compartment filter becomes
clogged, this may reduce the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate
unpleasant odours.We recommend the use
of a combined passenger compartment
filter. By means of its second special active
filter, it contributes to the purification of the
air breathed by the occupants and to the
cleanness of the passenger compartment
(reduction of allergic symptoms, unpleasant
odours and greasy deposits).
Refer to the servicing booklet to find out the
replacement interval for these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle
(urban driving...), change them twice as often
if necessary.
Refer to the "Under the bonnet" section
of chapter 7.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
It is imperative that particle emission filter
maintenance is carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer.
On acceleration after the vehicle has been
running for a prolonged period at very low
speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional
circumstances, notice the emission of water
vapour at the exhaust. This water vapour
does not have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.

ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION
After the engine has stopped, with the key
in the ignition position, certain functions
(windscreen wiper, electric windows,
courtesy lights, audio equipment, etc.) can
only be used for a cumulative duration of
thirty minutes, to prevent discharging the
battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the
message
"Economy mode active" appears
on the display and the active functions are
put on standby.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it run
for a few seconds.
A flat battery will prevent the engine from
starting.
This is housed in a compartment located
underneath the floor, in front of the driver ’s
seat.

To charge the battery using a battery
charger
 Disconnect the battery,
 Follow the instructions for use given by
the battery charger manufacturer,
 Reconnect starting with the negative (-)
terminal,
 Check that the terminals and connectors
are clean. If they are covered with
sulphate (white or greenish deposit),
disconnect them and clean them.
To start the vehicle from another battery
 Connect the red cable to the positive (+)
terminals of the two batteries,
 Connect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative (-) terminal of the
slave battery,
 Connect the other end of the green or
black cable to an earth point on the
broken down vehicle as far as possible
from the battery,
 Operate the starter, let the engine run,
 Wait for the engine to return to idle, then
disconnect the cables.
BATTERY
Before disconnecting the battery, you must
wait for 2 minutes after switching off the
ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Never charge a battery without first
disconnecting the terminals.
Close the sunroof and the windows before
disconnecting the battery. If they do not
operate normally following reconnection of
the battery, they must be reinitialised.
Refer to the "Accesses" section of chapter 2
for the sunroof safety auto-reverse and to the
"Mirrors and windows" section of chapter 3
for the electric windows safety auto-reverse.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery
if the vehicle is not to be used for a
period of more than one month.
After every reconnection of the battery, switch
on the ignition and wait 1 minute before
starting to allow the electronic systems to be
initialised. If slight difficulties are experienced
after this, please contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
