Coolant temperature
gauge
With the engine running, when the needle is:
- in zone A
, the temperature is correct,
- in zone B, the temperature is too high;
the maximum temperature and the central STOP
warning lamps come on,accompanied by an audible signal and a
warning message in the screen.
You MUST stop as soon as it is safe to
do so. Wait a few minutes before switching off theengine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
wor
kshop.
After drivin
g for a few minutes, the temperatureand pressure in the cooling system increase.
To top up the level:
) wait for the engine to cool, )
unscrew the cap slightly to allow the
pressure to drop,
) when the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap, ) top up the level to the "MA X" mark.
Be aware of the risk of burns whentopping up the cooling system. Do not fill above the maximum level (indicatedon the reservoir).

Checks
Coolant level
The coolant level should be close
to the "MAX" mark but should never exceed it.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised, wait at least one hour after switching off the engine before carrying out anywork.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be changed.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
Screenwash fluid level
Top up the level when necessary.
When the engine is warm, the temperature o
f
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
The cooling fan may star t after switchingoff the engine: take care with ar ticles andclothing that might become caught by thefan blades.
