Oil change
This must be carried out at the
intervals specifi ed and the viscosity
grade of the oil selected must fulfi l the
requirements in the manufacturer's
servicing schedule. Ask for advice from
a PEUGEOT dealer.
Remove the dipstick before fi lling.
Check the level after fi lling (never
exceed the max mark).
Refi t the oil fi ller cap before closing the
bonnet.
Changing the brake fluid
The brake fl uid must be changed at
the intervals stated, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fl uids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulfi l DOT4
standards.
The level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the reservoir.
If fl uid has to be added frequently,
this indicates a fault which must be
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop as soon as
possible.
Warning lamps
If you have to remove / refi t the
engine style cover, handle it with
care to avoid damaging the fi xing
clips.
Oil level
It is recommended that the oil level be
checked every 3 000 miles (5 000 km)
and topped up if necessary between oil
changes.
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the dipstick.
Dipstick
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A
= maximum
If you fi ll past this mark,
consult a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
B
= minimum
Never allow the level to
fall below this mark.
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil
is prohibited.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer's requirements.
These regular maintenance
operations will keep your vehicle
in good working order. Ask for
advice from a PEUGEOT dealer or
refer to the servicing and warranty
booklet in the handbook pack.
Checks using the warning
lamps in the instrument panel is
described in chapter 2, refer to the
"Instruments and controls" section.

Cooling system
Only use the fl uid recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging
your engine.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can
operate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to
release the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and top
up the level with coolant.
If fl uid has to be added frequently,
this indicates a fault which must be
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer as
soon as possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground with the engine cold. Unscrew
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check the level which must be between
the MIN and MAX marks. In order to regenerate the fi lter, you
are advised to drive at a speed higher
than 40 mph (60 km/h) for at least fi ve
minutes as soon as possible, when
traffi c conditions permit (until the
message disappears and the service
warning lamp goes off).
During regeneration of the particle
emission fi lter, the noise of a relay
operating may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and
if the service warning lamp remains
on, consult a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the expansion
bottle. If more than 1 litre of fl uid is
required to top up the level, have
the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products of the PEUGEOT range.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up or replaced with plain water.
Capacity of the screenwash reservoir:
approximately 3 litres.
If your vehicle is fi tted with headlamp
washers, the capacity of the reservoir
is 6 litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
emission filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop without delay.
Waste products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with the skin.
Brake fl uid is harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fl uid
or coolant into drains or into the ground
but into the containers dedicated to this
use at PEUGEOT dealer (France) or
an authorised waste disposal site. The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the service
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen.
When this occurs with the engine
running it is due to the start of
saturation of the particle emission fi lter
(exceptionally prolonged urban type
driving conditions: low speed, long
traffi c jams, ...).

Carbon filter and passenger
compartment filter
An access fl ap below the glove box
permits replacement of the fi lters.
The carbon fi lter permits continuous
and effective fi ltering of dust.
If the passenger compartment fi lter
becomes blocked, this may reduce the
performance of the air conditioning
system and generate unpleasant
odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment fi lter. By
means of its second special active
fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation
of the air breathed by the occupants
and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
maintenance of the particle emission
fi lter must be carried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
On acceleration after the vehicle has
been running for a prolonged period
at very low speed or at idle, you may,
in exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust. This water vapour does not
have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
check the thickness of the pads, even
between services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake
disc / drum wear, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Oil filter
Change the fi lter regularly in
accordance with the servicing
schedule. Refer to the servicing and warranty
booklet for the replacement interval for
these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the
vehicle (urban driving...), change them
twice as often if necessary.

To check the main levels
and certain components,
in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule,
refer to the pages of the servicing and
warranty booklet which correspond to
your vehicle's engine.
Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Only use products recommended
by PEUGEOT or products
of equivalent quality and
specifi cation.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and offers
specifi c products.
In order to avoid damaging the
electrical units, high pressure washing
to clean the engine compartment is
strictly prohibited.
After washing the vehicle dampness,
or in winter, ice may form on the brake
discs and pads: braking effi ciency may
be reduced. Make some light brake
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes. If this warning lamp comes
on, bleed the fi lter. Otherwise
bleed regularly each time the
engine oil is changed.
To drain the water, unscrew the bleed
screw located on the fi lter.
Operate until all of the water no longer
fl ows in the transparent pipe, then
tighten the bleed screw.
HDi engines use advanced technology.
All work requires special training, which
is assured by a PEUGEOT dealer.

FILLING WITH FUEL
Low fuel level
Filling
The fuel tank must be fi lled with the
engine off
.
- Open the fuel fi ller fl ap.
- Insert the key, then turn it a quarter
turn.
- Remove the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of the
fl ap.
When fi lling with fuel, with the fuel
fi ller fl ap open, ensure that no one
attempts to open the sliding side
door. When the minimum fuel tank
level is reached, this warning
light comes on.
You then have approximately 8 litres
of fuel remaining. Fill up without delay
to avoid running out of fuel.
Never risk driving until you run out of
fuel as this may damage the emissions
control and injection systems.
Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
A label affi xed to the inside of the fl ap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used.
You must fi ll with at least 5 litres of fuel
for it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When the fuel fi ller cap is opened,
there may be a slight air suction noise.
This vacuum is entirely normal and is
due to the sealing of the fuel circuit.
When fi lling the fuel tank, do not
continue after the 3 rd cut-off of the
nozzle. This could cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 60 litres.
- After fi lling the fuel tank, lock the
cap and close the fl ap.
The petrol engines are perfectly
compatible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 %
ethanol), conforming to European
standards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles marketed for the use of this
type of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The
quality of the ethanol must comply with
European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up
to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).

FUEL CUT-OFF
In a serious collision, a mechanism
automatically prevents fuel from
reaching the engine.
The fl ashing of this warning
lamp is accompanied by a
message in the screen.
Check that there is no odour or
leakage of fuel outside the vehicle and
re-establish the fuel supply:
- switch off the ignition (STOP position),
- remove the key,
- put the key back in the ignition,
- switch on the ignition and start.
DIESEL PRIMING PUMP
If you should run out of fuel, it is
necessary to prime the fuel circuit:
- fi ll the fuel tank with at least fi ve
litres of Diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual
priming pump, under the bonnet
under the protective cover,
- operate the starter until the engine
starts.
Refer to the "Under the bonnet"
section of chapter 6.
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly
compatible with biofuels which conform
to current and future European
standards (Diesel fuel which complies
with standard EN 590 mixed with a
biofuel which complies with standard
EN 14214) available at the pumps
(containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain
Diesel engines; however, this use
is subject to strict application of the
special servicing conditions. Contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or
diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly
prohibited (risk of damage to the
engine and fuel system).
