- 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 the
engine.
After first switching off the ignition, open
the bonnet cautiously and check the
coolant level.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.

i

n zone A , the temperature is correct,
Engine oil level indicator
With an electric oil level indicator, the state
of the engine oil level is displayed in the
instrument panel for a few seconds when the
ignition is switched on, at the same time as the
servicing information.
The level read will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30
minutes.
Oil level correct
Oil level insufficient
This is indicated by the flashing of " OIL" or the
display of the " Oil level incorrect " message,
accompanied by the Ser vice warning lamp and
an audible signal.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
avoid damage to the engine.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Instruments

Oil level indicator fault
In the event of a fault with the electric
indicator, the oil level is no longer
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
For more information on Checking levels,
refer to the corresponding section.
AdBlue® range indicators
These range indicators are present only on BlueHDi
Diesel versions.
Once the AdBlue
® tank is on reser ve or after detection
of a fault with the SCR emissions control system,
when the ignition is switched on, an indicator displays
This is signalled by the flashing of " OIL _ _"
or the display of the " Oil level measurement
invalid " message. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
an estimate of the distance that can be covered, the
range, before engine starting is prevented.
In the event of the risk of non-
starting related to a lack of AdBlue®
The engine starting prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is

Remaining range less than 375 miles (600 km)
When switching on the ignition, this warning lamp
c omes on, accompanied by an audible signal and
the display of a message (e.g. "Top up AdBlue:
Starting impossible in x miles") indicating the
remaining range expressed in miles or kilometres.
When driving, the message is displayed every
185
miles (300 km) until the level is topped up.
The reser ve level has been reached; it is
recommended that you top up as soon as possible.
When switching on the ignition, this warning

the remaining range expressed in miles or
kilometres.
When driving, this message is displayed every
30
seconds until the AdBlue level has been
topped up.
It is essential to top up as soon as possible and
before the tank is completely empty; other wise it
will not be possible to restart the engine after the
next stop.

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 a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. The liquid 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.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer 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). PEUGEOT
recommends 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
T

pull it out completely.
F

W

pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between marks A and B .
Practical information

185
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 a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
-

I

f the level is below the MIN mark, you must
top up the engine oil.
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.
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F

U
nscrew the oil filler cap to access the filler
opening.
Topping up the engine oil level
After topping up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel is not
valid during the 30
minutes after topping
up.
Engine oil change
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emissions control system, never use
additives in the engine oil.
Brake fluid level
The brake fluid level must be between
the marking " A" (MA X located on the
remote reservoir) and the marking " B"
(MIN located on the main reser voir). If
it is not, check the brake pad wear.
Changing the fluid
Refer to the personalised ser vice schedule for
your vehicle.
Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up this fluid
between two services.
The check and top-up must only be done with
the engine cold.
A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
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.

Practical information

187
Passenger compartment filter
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving),
replace it twice as often if
necessary.
A clogged passenger compartment
filter may have an adverse effect on
the per formance of the air conditioning
system and generate undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is signalled by the temporary
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message warning
of the risk of the filter clogging up. As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed
of at least 37
mph (60 km/h) until the
warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates
a low Diesel additive level.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell, which
is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does not
affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
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.
This system must be checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Brake pads
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.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
