MONITORING
Warning lamp is on Cause Action/Observations
STOP fi xed, alone
or associated with another
warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible signal and a
message in the screen. Illumination of this warning
lamp is associated with
a serious fault with the
braking system, power
steering, engine lubrication
system or cooling system.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so as there is a
risk that the engine will cut out while driving.
Park, switch off the ignition and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Braking fi xed,
associated
with the STOP warning lamp. The braking system fl uid
level is too low. You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Top up with brake fl uid recommended by
PEUGEOT.
If the problem persists, have the system checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
+
fi xed, associated with the STOP and ABS
warning lamp. The electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD) system
has a fault. You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Maximum
coolant
temperature fi xed with the
needle in the red zone. The temperature of the
cooling system is too high. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Wait until the engine has cooled down before
topping up the level, if necessary.
If the problem persists, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Seat belt not fastened /
unfastened fi xed, then
fl ashing in the passenger's
seat belt and front airbag
warning lamp display. The driver or front
passenger has not fastened
or has unfastened their seat
belt.
Pull on the belt in question and insert the tongue
in the buckle.
For more information, refer to the "Seat belts"
section.
At least one rear passenger
has unfastened their seat
belt.

MONITORING
Coolant temperature indicator
With the engine running, when the nee-
dle is:
- in zone A , the temperature is correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning
lamp 1 and the central STOP warning
lamp come on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a 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.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop. 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.

CHECKS

Brake fluid level
The brake fl uid level should be
close to the "MAX" mark. If it is
not, check the brake pad wear.
Power steering fluid level
The power steering fl uid level
should be close to the "MAX"
mark. With the engine cold,
unscrew the cap to check the
level.
Changing the fl uid
Refer to the warranty and maintenance
record for details of the interval for this
operation.
When the engine is warm, the tempera-
ture of the coolant is regulated by the
fan.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
The cooling fan may start after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might
become caught by the fan blades.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
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.
Topping up the engine oil level
Refer to the "Petrol engine" or "Diesel
engine" section for the location of the oil
fi ller cap in the engine compartment of
your vehicle.
 Unscrew the oil fi ller cap to reveal
the fi ller aperture.
 Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills on engine components
(risk of fi re).
 Wait a few minutes before checking the level again using the dipstick.
 Add more oil if necessary.
 After checking the level, carefully re- fi t the oil fi ller cap and the dipstick in
its tube.
After topping up the oil, the check
when switching on the ignition with
the oil level indicator in the instru-
ment panel is not valid during the
30 minutes after topping up.
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,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.
