Checks
Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are per fectly compatible
with E10 or E24 type petrol biofuels (containing10 % or 24 % ethanol), conforming to Europeanstandards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type
fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol) are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed
for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex
vehicles). The quality of the ethanol mustcomply with European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed
to run on fuels containing up to 100 % ethanol (E10 0 type).
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines

The Diesel engines are per fectly compatible
with biofuels which conform to current andfuture European standards (Diesel fuel whichcomplies with standard EN 590 mixed with a
biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214)available at the pumps (containing up to 7 %Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in cer tain Diesel engines; however, this use is subject to strict
application of the special ser vicing conditions.Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).

Checks






Checking levels
Oil level


The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using theoil level indicator in the instrument
panel, or using the dipstick.

Engine oil change

Refer to the ser vicing and warranty booklet for
details of the inter val for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, the use of
additives in the engine oil is prohibited.

Oil specifi cation

The oil must be the correct grade for your engine and conform to the manufacturer'srecommendations.
Th
e 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 fl uid

Refer to the servicing and warranty booklet for
details of the interval for this operation.

Fluid specifi cation

The brake fluid must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations and meet the
DOT3 or DOT4 standard.



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 star t at
any time (even with the ignition off).
If a level drops si
gnificantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the ser vicing booklet and the requirements of the warranties. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
It is normal to top up the oil levelbetween two ser vices (or oil changes). PEUGEOT recommends that you check the level, and top up if necessary, every3 000 miles (5 000 kms).

After topping up the oil, the check whenswitching on the ignition with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel is not valid
durin
g the 30 minutes after topping up. It will onl
y be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.

198
Checks
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 intosewers or onto the ground. Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop (France) or to an authorised waste disposal site.








Used products
To p p i ng up
This additive must be topped up by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel engine with particle
emission filter)
A low additive level is indicated by illumination
of the ser vice warning lamp, accompanied by an audible warning and a message in the screen (if a display screen is fitted).

Checks






Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check that the terminals are clean
and correctl
y tightened, particularly in summer and winter.
The presence of this label, in particular with
the Stop & Star t system, indicates the use of
a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
technology and specification. The involvement
of a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop is essential when replacing or disconnecting
the battery.
Particle emissions filter (Diesel)

The star t of saturation of the particle filter is indicated by the fixed
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a warning message
in the screen (if a display screen isfitted).
On a new vehicle, the first particlefilter regeneration operations may beaccompanied by a "burnt" smell, which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of thevehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the emission of water vapour atthe exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the ser vicin
g and warranty booklet and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter

Refer to the ser vicing and warrantybooklet for details of the replacement
inter vals for these components.
Oil filter
Replace the oil filter each time theengine oil is changed.
Refer to the servicing and warrantybooklet for details of the replacement
interval for this component. Depending on the environment
(e.g. dustyatmosphere) and the use of the vehicle(e.g. city driving), replace them twice as oftenif necessary.y
A clogged passenger compartment filter may have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generateundesirable odours. When carr
ying out work on the battery, refer
to the "Practical information" section for
details of the precautions to be taken before
disconnecting the battery and following its
reconnection.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at
least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a
low additive level.

Checks
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require anymaintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing and warrantybooklet for the details of the level checking interval for this component.
Electronic gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing and warrantybooklet for details of the checking
interval for this component.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require anymaintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the ser vicing and warranty
booklet for details of the levelchecking interval for this component. Brake wear depends on the st
yle
of driving, par ticularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over shor t
distances. It ma
y be necessary to have
the condition of the brakes checked, even between vehicle services. Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
drop in the brake fluid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.














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 ser vices.
Checking this system must be done by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

















Only use products recommended by PEUGEOT or products of equivalentquality and specification.
In order to optimise the operationof units as impor tant as the braking system, PEUGEOT selects and offersvery 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 lightbrake applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
