PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Cooling circuit
CHECKING THE LEVELS
1. Air filter
The air filter element must be
changed at the recommended
intervals. If you drive in a dusty
atmosphere, change it twice as
often.
4. Power steering*
When the engine is cold, the level
must always be above the MIN
mark, close to the MAX mark.
Always use the coolant which is
approved by the manufacturer
(PROCOR TM108 / GLYSANTIN
G33 or REVKOGEL 2000). If this is
not possible, top up with distilled
water and have the protection level
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
When the engine is hot, the coolant
temperature is regulated by the fan.
As the fan can operate with the
ignition key removed, and as the
cooling circuit is pressurised, do
not carry out any work for at
least an hour after switching off
the engine.
5. Dipstick
Check the oil level on flat ground,
with the engine cold and preferably
before the first journey of the day.
Never exceed the maximum level.
Check the level regularly.
Follow the recommendations given
in the maintenance schedule.
2. Brake fluid
6. Topping up with oil
Your oil must be changed in accor-
dance with the maintenance sche-
dule.
The oil must be topped up between
oil changes.
Regularly check and top-up the
oil level.
The level must always be above the
DANGER mark on the reservoir. In
the event of a significant drop in the
fluid level, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer immediately. Use fluids
approved by the manufacturer,
which conform to DOT 3 or DOT 4
standards.
Note: the coolant does not need to
be renewed.
8. Front/rear screen and
headlamp wash reservoir*
3. Battery
At the beginning of winter, have the
battery checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer.
In summer (30°C and above) or if
the battery is in heavy use, check
the level of electrolyte; it must cover
the separator plates at all times. If
necessary, top up with distilled
water.
Maximum oil consumption is 0.5
litres per 600 miles (1000 km).
For optimum cleaning quality and
for your safety, it is best to use clea-
ning products approved by PEU-
GEOT (capacity 4.5 litres without
headlamp wash, 5.5 litres with
headlamp wash).
7. Coolant
Engine cold: the coolant level must
be between the min and max marks
in the expansion chamber with the
cap removed. To close, turn the cap
to the second notch*.
* According to specification

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
Visual brake pad wear indicator*
The front brakes are fitted with visual wear indicators.
Regularly check the thickness of the brake pads.
To check: turn the wheels to full lock on the side to be checked. The thickness of pad remaining is represented by the measu-
rement X.
When the measurement is zero, the brake pads must be changed.
Advice
As brake pad wear depends on the way in which the vehicle is driven, particularly if the vehicle is used for urban driving or for
short journeys, or is driven in a very sporty manner, it may be necessary to check the thickness of the pads even between ser-
vice intervals.

Fitting the spare wheel
Anti-theft bolt**
If your vehicle is fitted with a steel
spare wheel, it is normal when secu-
ring it to notice that the bolt washers
do not come into contact with the
rim. The spare wheel is secured by
the cone-shaped support of each
bolt.
If your wheels are fitted with an anti-
theft bolt (one per wheel), the
chrome trim and then the plastic
cover must be removed, using tool 3,
before it is unscrewed using one of
the two anti-theft sockets (which
were given to you on delivery of your
vehicle along with the duplicate keys
and the confidential card) and the
wheel brace 1.
Alloy wheel bolts are covered by
chrome trims.
Use tool 3 to remove the trims before
slackening the bolts.
Fitting snow tyres
If you fit snow tyres mounted on steel
wheels, it is essential to use special
bolts available from your PEUGEOT
dealer.
Note: make a careful note of the code
number engraved on the top of the
anti-theft socket. This will enable you
to obtain a duplicate of the anti-theft
socket from a PEUGEOT dealer.
* According to specification.
