Checking levels
Oil level
The check is carried out either when the
ignition is switched on using the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel (depending
on version), or using the dipstick.Engine oil change
Refer to the warranty and maintenance record
for details of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, never use
additives in the engine oil.
Oil specification
The oil must be the correct grade for your
engine and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.The brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.
Brake fluid level
Changing the fluid
Refer to the warranty and maintenance record
for details of the interval for this operation.
Fluid specification
The brake fluid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
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).
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the warranty and maintenance record. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
It is normal to top up the oil level
between two services (or oil changes).
PEUGEOT recommends that you check
the level, and top up if necessary, every
3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
It will only be correct if the vehicle is on level
ground and the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for the checking
interval for this component.
Electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for details of the
checking interval for this component.
Automatic
gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for details of
the level checking interval for this
component.Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to have
the condition of the brakes checked,
even between vehicle services.
Brake pads
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Brake disc
wear
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must be
checked, even between two services.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness,
or in wintry conditions, ice can form
on the brake discs and pads: braking
efficiency may be reduced. Make light
brake applications to dry and defrost
the brakes.
Checking this system must be done by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
