Handbrake, low brake fluid level and electronic brake force distribution warning light. This comes on each time the ignition is switched on.
It indicates either:
– that the handbrake is on or has not been released correctly,
and when coupled with the central (STOP) warning light:
– an excessive drop in the brake fluid level (if the light remains on even with the handbrake released),
– lit at the same time as the ABS warning light, a malfunction of the electronic brake force distribution system.
Stop immediately.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) warning lightThis comes on for 3 seconds each time the ignition is switched on.If it comes on at over 8 m.p.h. (12 km/h.), it indicates a malfunction of the ABS.
However, the vehicle retains conventional servo-assisted braking.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Clogging of the particulate emissionfilter warning light(diesel engine)
Display of this warning light is accompanied by an audible signal. The flashing of this light while the engine is running is caused either bythe particulate emission filter being
overloaded or by the engine runningtoo long at idle (white smoke at
exhaust). There is a risk of the filterclogging if the same conditions ofoperation are maintained. As soon as possible, drive for at least three minutes at a speedexceeding 37 m.p.h. (60 km/h), if dri-ving conditions allow this. If the light comes on, drive to a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possi-ble. Front brake pad wear warning light

CHECKING THE LEVELS Engine Checking the oil levelCheck the level regularly and top up between changes. Maximumconsumption is 0.5 litres per600 miles (1 000 km). The oil level should be checked with the vehicle level and the engine cold.There are two marks onthe dipstick: A= maximum
B = minimum
Oil change: according to the manu-
facturer's servicing schedule.
- Dipstick. Never fill past the maxi- mum mark A.
- Oil level gauge on the instrument panel.
Viscosity selection In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer's require-ments.

Oil filter Change the filter regularly according to the servicing schedule. Used oilPrevent used oil from coming into prolonged contact with the skin. Do not dispose of used oil into drains or onto the ground.
To maintain the reliability of engines and emission control systems, theuse of additives in the engine oil isprohibited. Brakes and clutch Checking the brake and clutch fluid level:
- The level should always be above
the DANGER mark on the reser-
voir.
- If the level drops substantially, contact a PEUGEOT dealer imme-
diately.
Fluid change
- must be carried out according to the manufacturer's servicing sche- dule.
- use fluids approved by the manu- facturer, which fulfil DOT 4 stan-dards. Cooling system Use the fluid approved by the manu-
facturer. When the engine is warm, the tem- perature of the coolant is controlledby the engine fan. Because this fancan operate with the ignition keyremoved and because the coolingsystem is pressurised, wait for atleast one hour after the engine hasstopped before carrying out anywork. In the event of a breakdown and to avoid any risk of burns, slacken thecap to the first notch to release thepressure. When the pressure hasdropped, remove the cap and top upthe level.
