F Check the coolant level and top it up if necessary.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
During operations in this compartment,
you must obser ve the safety instructions
provided on the labels.
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.
Before topping up, make sure that the
fluid conforms to the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Never work in the compartments while
the "Ready" lamp is on or your vehicle is
charging.
When working in the front and rear
compartments, be careful because some
areas of the compartments may be
extremely hot (risk of burns): wait at least
one hour after switching off the vehicle
or until the end of the charging process
before any such work.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used fluids
with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used fluids into sewers or
onto the ground.
Take used fluids to a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop and dispose
of them in containers provided for this
purpose.
Front compartment
Brake fluid level
The brake fluid level should be
between the "MIN" and "MA X"
marks. If not, check the brake pad
w e a r.
Heating system fluid level
The fluid level should be between the marks "L"
(MIN) and "F" (MA X).
Changing the fluid
This fluid does not need to be changed.
Screenwash fluid level
Top up the level when necessary.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.

Rear compartment
Coolant level
The level of this fluid must be
between the "L" (MIN) and "F"
(MA X) marks.
As the cooling system is pressurised, wait at
least one hour after switching off the motor
before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of burns, unscrew the cap by
two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.
Changing the fluid
This fluid does not need to be changed.
Checks
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.
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.
Ancillaries battery electrolyte
level
To check this level, you must remove the
battery cover.
For more information on the ancillaries
battery , refer to the corresponding section.
The level of this fluid must be between the
"LOWER LEVEL" (MIN) and "UPPER LEVEL"
(MA X) marks.
If necessary, top up with distilled water by
removing the plugs from the battery’s different
compartments.
Check the electrolyte level at least once
a month. Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear
For information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Practical information

87
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.
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.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
Changing a wiper blade
Removing front or rear
wiper blades
F Raise the corresponding wiper arm.
F T ake off the wiper blade by sliding it to the
outside.
Fitting front or rear wipers
F Put the new wiper blade in place and secure it.
F

C
arefully lower the wiper arm.
Washing precautions
Never wash the vehicle while the battery
is on charge.
Before washing the vehicle, check that
the access flaps and the charging socket
covers (normal and fast) are closed
properly.
In order to avoid damaging the electric
units, the use of a high pressure jet wash
is strictly forbidden:
-

u
nder the bonnet,
-

u
nder the chassis.
Do not use a pressure greater than
80
bars when washing the bodywork.

Ancillaries battery
All of the electrical components on your vehicle
(with the exception of the electric motor, the
heating and the air conditioning) are powered
by the ancillaries battery.
It is located in the front compartment under
the bonnet and is charged by the main battery
during phases of operation ("Ready" lamp on in
the instrument panel) and charging.If the ancillaries battery is discharged,
the electric motor cannot be started and
charging of the main battery is no longer
possible.
It is not recommended to disconnect the
battery.
However, during a prolonged period of
more than one month without using your
vehicle, it may be necessary, in winter,
to disconnect the battery and store it to
prevent the electrolyte freezing.
After prolonged disconnection of the
battery, you must consult a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop in order to
have the electronic computer reset.

Presetting a station
Press SRC/TEL repeatedly to select
the FM1, FM2 or AM waveband.
Press and hold a button to preset
the station being listened to. The
name of the station is displayed and
an audible signal confirms that it has
been preset. The external environment (hills, buildings,
tunnels, basement car parks, etc.) may
block reception, including in RDS tracking
mode. This is a normal effect of the way
in which radio waves are transmitted and
does not indicate any failure of the audio
equipment.
Selecting a station
Press a button to listen to the
corresponding preset station.
Managing a list

RDS
RDS, if activated, allows you to
continue listening to the same station
by automatically retuning to alternative
frequencies. However, in certain conditions,
coverage of an RDS station may not be
assured throughout the entire country as
radio stations do not cover 100% of the
territory. This explains the loss of reception
of a station that can occur during a journey.
With source FM1 or FM2, press

QUESTIONRESPONSESOLUTION
There is a difference in sound quality between
the different audio sources (radio, CD, etc.). For optimum sound quality, the audio settings
(volume, bass, treble, ambience, loudness)
can be adapted to the different sound sources,
which may result in audible differences when
changing source (radio, CD, etc.).Check that the audio settings (volume, bass,
treble, ambience, loudness) are adapted to
the sources being listened to. It is advisable to
set the AUDIO functions (bass, treble, front-
rear balance, left-right balance) to the middle
position, select the musical ambience and set
the loudness correction to the "Active" position
in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio
mode.
When changing the settings for treble and bass,
the ambience setting is deselected.
When changing the ambience setting, treble
and bass are reset to zero. Choosing an ambience imposes settings for
treble and bass. Modifying one without the other
is only possible with a personalised ambience.
Modify the treble and bass settings or the
ambience setting to obtain the desired sound
quality.
When changing the balance setting, distribution
is deselected. Choosing the "driver" distribution setting
imposes a balance setting.Modify the balance or distribution settings to
obtain the desired sound quality.
The reception quality of the tuned radio station
gradually deteriorates or the stored stations are
not working (no sound, 87.5
MHz is displayed...).The vehicle is too far from the transmitter of
the station or no transmitter is present in the
geographical area. Activate the RDS function and search for the
station again to enable the system to check
whether there is a more power ful transmitter in
the geographical area.
The surroundings (hills, buildings, tunnels,
underground car park, etc.) are blocking
reception, including in RDS tracking mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is missing or has been damaged (for
example when going through a car wash or into
an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
