LEVELS

These regular maintenance operations
will keep your vehicle in good running
order. Ask for advice at a PEUGEOT dealer
or consult the servicing booklet enclosed in
the handbook pack. To maintain the reliability of engines and
emission control systems, the use of
additives in engine oil is prohibited.



Changing the brake fluid

The brake fluid must be changed at
the intervals stated, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fluids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 standards.
The level must be between the MIN
and
MAX
marks on the reservoir.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by
a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
If you have to remove/refit the engine
style cover, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the fixing clips.

Dipstick
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
Oil change
It is imperative that this is carried out at the
intervals specified and the viscosity grade of
the oil selected must fulfil the requirements
in accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing schedule. Ask for advice at at
PEUGEOT dealer.
Remove the dipstick before filling.
Check the level after filling (never exceed
the maximum mark).
Screw the cap back onto the sump before
closing the bonnet.
Viscosity selection

In all cases, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer's requirements.

lamps on the instrument panel is
described in chapter 2, refer to the
