CHECKING THE LEVELS
Oil level
F Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. The maxi-
mum 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.
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A = maximum
Never ill past this mark.
B = minimum
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil
is prohibited.
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
Note: avoid used oil coming into pro-
longed contact with the skin.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require-
ments.
Used oil
Do not dispose of used oil, brake
luid or coolant into drains or into the
ground.
Dipstick
* According to country.
Brake fluid change:
- must be carried out according to the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
- use luids recommended by the manu- facturer, which fulil DOT4 standards.
Note: brake luid is harmful to health
and very corrosive. Avoid all contact
with the skin.
Cooling systemUse the luid recommended by the
manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can op-
erate 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 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.
Power steering reservoir
F Open the reservoir, with the en-
gine at ambient temperature. The
level should always be above the
MIN. mark and close to the MAX.
mark.
Windscreen and headlamp*
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for
your safety, we would advise that
you use products recommended by
PEUGEOT.

CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your bat-
tery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Oil filter
Change the ilter regularly, in accord-
ance with the servicing schedule.Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT.
To ensure best performance
from components as impor-
tant as the power steering and the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects
and offers quite speciic products.
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, avoid washing the engine.
Fuel supply cut-off
In a serious collision, a system pre-
vents fuel from reaching the engine.
To re-establish the fuel supply, press
the switch on the angle of the front
left-hand suspension assembly, under
the bonnet.
Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Have the ilter elements replaced
regularly. If you drive in dusty
conditions, change them twice as
often.
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.
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 require an oil change.
Check the level in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and cer-
tain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corre-
spond to your vehicle's engine.
