The fluids must comply with the
manufacturer's requirements 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
and very corrosive.Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers
reser ved for this purpose at a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The oil level is checked on a level
sur face with the engine stopped for
at least 30 minutes, either using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel when the ignition is switched
on (for vehicles equipped with an
electric gauge), or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
ser vices (or oil changes). It is recommended
that you check the level, and top up if
necessary, every 3,000 miles (5,000
km).
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emissions control system,
never use additives in the engine oil.

Practical information

193
During the 30 minutes after topping up the
oil, the check per formed with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel when the
ignition is switched on is not valid.
Brake fluid
The level of this fluid should be
close to the "MAX" mark. If not,
check the brake pad wear.
To know how often the brake fluid should be
replaced, refer to the manufacturer's servicing
schedule. If topping up, clean the cap before
replacing it. Use only DOT4 brake fluid
from a sealed canister.

fter checking the level, carefully refit the oil
filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
Power steering fluid
The level of this fluid should be
close to the " MAX" mark. With the
engine cold and the vehicle standing
on level ground, check this by
reading the level on the filler neck.
Engine coolant
Check the engine 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 level presents a risk of serious damage
to the engine.
The level of this fluid should be close to the
" MAX " mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the " MIN” mark,
it is essential to top up. Once the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up to the required level.
Screen and headlamp
washer fluid
Top up the reser voir when you next
stop the vehicle.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a ready-to-
use mixture.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a liquid
containing an agent to prevent freezing must
be used which is appropriate for the prevailing
conditions, in order to protect the elements of
the system (pump, tank, ducts, jets, etc.).
When the engine is hot, the temperature of this
fluid is regulated by the fan.
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 the risk of scalding if you need to top
up in an emergency, wrap a cloth around the
cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to allow
the pressure to drop. Filling with pure water is prohibited
under all circumstances (risk of freezing,
limestone deposits, etc.).
Diesel fuel additive (Diesel
with particle filter)
or
The minimum level in the particle
filter additive tank is indicated by
fixed illumination of this warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message warning that
the level of additive is too low.

This additive must be topped up without delay
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
AdBlue (BlueHDi)
An alert is triggered once the reser ve level is
reached.
For more information on the Indicators and in
particular the AdBlue range indicators, refer to
the corresponding section.
To avoid the vehicle being immobilised as per
regulations, you must top up the AdBlue tank.
For more information on AdBlue
® (BlueHDi) ,
and in particular on the supply of AdBlue, refer
to the corresponding section.
Checks
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule and according
to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers very specific products.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release
terminals) and that the connections
are clean.
For more information on the precautions to
take before any work on the 12
V batter y,
refer to the corresponding section.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12
V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Passenger compartment filter
Depending on the environment and
the use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty
atmosphere, city driving), change it
twice as often if necessar y .
A clogged passenger compartment
filter may have an adverse effect on
the per formance of the air conditioning
system and generate undesirable odours.
Air filter

Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Practical information

196
Wheels and tyres
The pressure must be checked on
all tyres, including the spare wheel,
when the tyres are "cold".
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure
label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have
driven for more than 10 minutes or more
than 6

miles (10 kilometres) at over 31 mph
(50

km/h), add 0.3 bar (30 kPa) to the values
indicated on the label.
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases
fuel consumption. Non-compliant tyre
pressure causes premature wear on tyres
and has an adverse effect on the vehicle's
road holding - risk of an accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces
the braking and road holding per formance of
the vehicle. It is recommended to regularly
check the condition of the tyres (tread and
sidewalls) and wheel rims as well as the
presence of the valves.
Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of
tyres, wheel rotation, ground clearance, the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the per formance or fuel
consumption of its Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel particle filter
(DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85%
of nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® is contained in a
special tank holding about 20
litres. Its capacity allows a driving range of
approximately 4,300
miles (7,000 km)
( highly dependent on your driving style
and the vehicle). An alert system is triggered
automatically when the remaining range
reaches 1,500 miles (2,400 km), i.e. once the
reserve level has been reached.
Several alerts are triggered successively during
the remaining 1,500 miles (2,400 km) before
the tank is empty and the vehicle is disabled.
If the estimated distance travelled by the
vehicle between two ser vices is greater than
3,700 miles (6,000 km), it will be necessary to
top up the AdBlue.
For more information on the Warning
and indicator lamps and the associated
alerts, or the Indicators , refer to the
corresponding sections.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Practical information

197
Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a system
r
equired by regulations prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR system is faulty, the level of
emissions from the vehicle will no longer
meet the Euro 6 standard: the vehicle
becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault with the
SCR system, you must go to a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop as soon
as possible: after travelling a distance
of 685

miles (1,100 km), a system will be
triggered automatically to prevent engine
starting.
In either case, a range indicator gives the
distance that can be travelled before the
vehicle is immobilised.
Freezing of the AdBlue
®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue
driving in very cold conditions.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® be topped
up as soon as the first alert is issued indicating
that the reser ve level has been reached.
In order to ensure that the SCR system
operates correctly:
-

U

se only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the
ISO 22241 standard.
-

N

ever transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity.
-

N

ever dilute AdBlue
® with water.
AdBlue
® can be obtained from a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
You can also visit a ser vice station
equipped with AdBlue
® pumps specially
designed for passenger vehicles.
Never top up from an AdBlue
® dispenser
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Recommendations on
storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11 °C and
d
eteriorates above +25 °C. Containers should
be stored in a cool area and protected from
direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has
completely thawed out at room temperature.
Never store AdBlue
® containers in your
vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This liquid
is non-flammable, colourless and odourless
(when kept in a cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and running water. In
the event of contact with the eyes, immediately
rinse the eyes with large amounts of water
or with an eye wash solution for at least 15
minutes. If you feel a persistent burning
sensation or irritation, get medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.

Practical information

198
Keep AdBlue® out of the reach of children,
in its original container.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure
that the vehicle is parked on a flat and level
sur face.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the
temperature of the vehicle is above -11
°C.
Otherwise the AdBlue
® may be frozen and so
cannot be poured into its tank. Park the vehicle
in a warmer area for a few hours to allow the
top-up to be carried out.
Never put the AdBlue
® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
If any AdBlue
® is splashed, or if there
are any spillages on the bodywork, rinse
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off
using a sponge and hot water. F

Practical information

199
If your vehicle's AdBlue® tank is
completely empty – which is confirmed
by the message "Top up AdBlue: Starting
impossible", you must top up with at least
5 litres.
Important: in the event of a top-up after
a breakdown because of a lack of
AdBlue, you must wait around 5 minutes
before switching on the ignition, without
opening the driver’s door, locking
the vehicle, introducing the key into
the ignition switch, or introducing
the key of the Keyless Entr y and
Star ting system into the passenger
compartment .
Switch on the ignition, then wait for
10


seconds before starting the engine.
Advice on care
General recommendations on the care and
maintenance of your vehicle are given in the
warranty and maintenance record. Observe the following recommendations to avoid damaging your vehicle:
-

D
o not clean your headlamps with a dry or abrasive cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products. Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH neutral product.
-
W
hen using a high-pressure washer on stubborn dirt, avoid prolonged use on the
headlamps, the lamps and their edges to avoid damaging their lacquer finish and seals.
-
N
ever use an abrasive sponge to clean persistent dirt, as this may scratch the paint
sur face. Use a soft cloth with soapy water instead.
-
W
hen washing your vehicle, never clean the interior with a water jet.
-
W
hen washing your vehicle in an automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure to lock your
doors and, depending on version, remove the key and deactivate the " Hands-Free
Access " system.
-
N
ever use high-pressure washing to clean the engine compartment, in order to avoid
damaging the electrical units.
-
L
iquids carried in an open vessel (e.g. a cup or mug) could be spilt, presenting a risk of
damage on contact with the controls in the dashboard and centre console. Be careful.
Depending on version, in order to avoid damaging or unpeeling the stickers on the bodywork,
you are strongly advised against using high-pressure cleaners to wash your vehicle. It is
recommended that you wash it using a high-flow water jet and rinse the vehicle down using
demineralised water.
Only a microfibre cloth is recommended for wiping your vehicle; it must be clean and used
g e nt l y.
It is always preferable to have paint repairs carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
