Warning lights
When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, the switching on of one of the following warning lights indicates the
occurrence of a fault which requires action on the part of the driver.
Any fault resulting in the switching on of a warning ligh t must be investigated further by reading the associated message on
the multifunction display.
If you encounter any problems, do not hesitate to contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

another warning light and accompanied by a message on the display. It is associated with a
punctured wheel, the
braking, the power steering,
the engine oil pressure or
the coolant temperature.
You must stop immediately where it is
safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and call a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Identify the fault by consulting the
message shown on the display, such as:
- the closing of the doors, boot or
bonnet,
- the engine oil level,
- the screenwash level,
- the remote control battery,
- the pressure of the tyres,
- the end of saturation of the particle e m i s s i o n fi l t e r ( D i e s e l ) .
For any other faults, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Service temporarily.
A minor fault which does not

has occurred.
fi x e d . A major fault which does not
h a v e a s p e c i fi c w a r n i n g l i g h t
has occurred.
Identify the fault by consulting the
message shown on the display and
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Electronic
parking brake fl a s h i n g . The electronic brake is not
applied automatically. You must stop immediately where it is
safe to do so.
Park on level ground, switch off the
ignition and contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

Warning lights is on Cause Actions, observations
Engine
autodiagnostics system
fi x e d . The emission control system
is faulty. This light should switch off when the
engine is started.
If it does not switch off, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
fl a s h i n g . The engine management
system is faulty, there is a risk
of destruction of the catalytic
converter. You must stop immediately where it is
safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and contact
a PEUGEOT dealer.
Low fuel level fi x e d w i t h t h e n e e d l e
in the red zone. The fuel tank contains
approximately 5 litres.
Depending on your style of driving and
your engine, you have enough fuel left to
drive approximately 30 miles (50 km).
Fill your fuel tank as soon as possible.
Capacity approximately
60 litres.
Never continue to drive until you run out
of fuel, this could damage the emission
control and injection systems.
Coolant
temperature fi x e d w i t h t h e n e e d l e
in the red zone. The temperature of the
cooling system is too high.
You must stop immediately where it is
safe to do so.
Wait until the engine has cooled down
before topping up the level, if necessary.
If the problem persists, park, switch off
the ignition and call a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil pressure fi x e d . The engine lubrication circuit
is faulty.
You must stop immediately where it is
safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and contact
a PEUGEOT dealer.
Battery charge fi x e d . The battery charging circuit
is faulty (dirty or loose
terminals, slack or cut
alternator belt, ...).
This light should switch off when the
engine is started.
If it does not switch off, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

Coolant temperature indicator
System which informs the driver of the
changes in the temperature of the en-
gine coolant while driving.
With the engine running, when the
needle is:
- in zone A , the temperature is correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning
light 1 and the central STOP warning
light come on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message on
the multifunction display.
You MUST stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off
the engine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. After driving for a few minutes, the tem-
perature and pressure in the cooling
system increase.
To top up the level:
wait for the engine to cool,
unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop,
when the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap,
top up the level to the "MAX" mark.

top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.

corresponding circuit checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Brake fluid level
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.
Oil level The reading will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for
more than 15 minutes.
The check is carried out either when the
ignition is switched on using the oil level
indicator on the instrument panel, or using
the dipstick.
Between two oil changes, the consump-
tion should not exceed 0.5 litre per
600 miles (1,000 km). T h e b r a k e fl u i d l e v e l s h o u l d b e

not, check the brake pad wear.

In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.

Side wind
Take into account the increased
sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the temperature of the coolant.

the engine speed.

your speed. Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking
distance.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the

observing the recommended pres-
sures.
