epending on engine.
Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with
the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them
up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by the dealer
network or a
qualified workshop.
The liquids must comply with the
manufacturer's recommendations and with
the vehicle's engine. Take care when working under the bonnet,
as certain areas of the engine may be
extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even
with the ignition off).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Return used oil to the dealer network or
a
qualified workshop and dispose of it in
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles equipped with an
electric gauge, or using the dipstick. To ensure that the reading is correct, your
vehicle must be parked on a
level sur face
with the engine stopped for more than
30

minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
ser vices (or oil changes). We recommend that
you check the level, and top up if necessary,
every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
Checking using the dipstick
The location of the dipstick is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F

H
old the dipstick by its coloured grip and
pull it out completely.
F

W
ipe the end of the dipstick using a clean
non-fluffy cloth.
F

R
efit the dipstick and push fully down, then
pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between marks A and B .
07
Practical information

156
A = MA X
B = MIN
If you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not star t the engine.
-

I

f the level is above the MAX mark (risk of
damage to the engine), contact the dealer
network or a

qualified workshop.
-

I

f the level is below the MIN mark, you must
top up the engine oil.
Topping up the engine oil level
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view. After topping up the oil, the check
per formed by the oil level indicator in
the instrument panel when the ignition
is switched on is not valid during the
30
minutes after topping up.
Engine oil change
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, never use
additives in the engine oil.
Brake fluid level
The brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.
Changing the fl
uid
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the inter val for this operation.
Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up the fluid
between two services.
To ensure that the reading is correct, your
vehicle must be parked on a
level sur face with
the engine cool.
The coolant level should be close to the "MA X"
mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark,
it is essential to top up.
A low coolant level presents a
risk of serious
damage to your engine.
When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
F

U

nscrew the oil filler cap to access the filler
opening.
F

few minutes before checking the
level again using the dipstick.
F

A

dd more oil if necessary.
F

A

fter checking the level, carefully refit the oil
filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
Oil grade
Before topping up the oil or changing the oil,
check that the oil is the correct grade for your
engine and conforms to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
In addition, with the engine hot and as the
cooling system is pressurised, wait at least
one hour after switching off the engine before
carrying out any work.

Temporary puncture
repair kit
Scan the QR code on page 3 to view
e xplanatory videos.
Comprising a
compressor and a sealant
cartridge, it allows the temporary repair of
a

tyre so that you can drive to the nearest
garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which
could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.
The vehicle's electrical system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a
tyre after a puncture
repair.
Under-inflation detection
After repair of the tyre, the warning
lamp will remain on until the system is
reinitialised.
For more information on Under-inflation
detection , refer to the corresponding
section.

Identification markings
Various visible markings for the identification of
your vehicle.
A.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
under the bonnet.
B. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on
the windscreen lower cross member. C.
Manufacturer's label.
It bears the following information:
-
t
he name of the manufacturer,
-

t
he European Whole Vehicle Type Approval
number,
-

t
he vehicle identification number (VIN),
-

t
he gross vehicle weight (GV W)
-

t
he maximum authorised train weight
(GT W),
-

t
he maximum front axle weight,
-

t
he maximum rear axle weight.
D. Tyre/paint label.
This label on the centre pillar, driver's side,
contains the following information:
-

t
he tyre inflation pressures with and without
load,
-

t
he tyre sizes (including the load index and
speed rating),
-

t
he spare tyre inflation pressure,
-

t
he paint colour code.The vehicle may be originally equipped
with tyres with higher load and speed
indices than those indicated on the label,
without affecting inflation pressure.
This number is engraved on the bodywork near
the passenger compartment filter.
The number is on an adhesive label, visible
through the windscreen. This tamperproof label is affixed to the centre
pillar on the driver's side.
Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when
cold at least monthly.
The pressures given on the label are valid for
cold tyres. If you have driven for more than
10
minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres)
at more than 30
mph (50 km/h), the tyres will be
warm; in this case 0.3
bar (30 kPa) should be
added to the pressures given on the label.
Never reduce the pressure of a
warm tyre.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.
