CHECKING THE LEVELS
Changing the brake fluid
Windscreen wash level
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.
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you
use products recommended by your
manufacturer.
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up
between changes. The maximum
consumption is 0.5 l per 600 miles
(1 000 km).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the dipstick.
Cooling system
Used oil
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with the skin.
Brake fluid is harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Dipstick
Only use the fluid recom-
mended by the manufac-
turer.
There are two marks
on the dipstick:
A = maximum
If you fill past this mark,
contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
B = minimum
Never allow the level to
fall below this mark.
Otherwise, you risk seriously
damaging your engine.
Do not dispose of used oil,
brake fluid or coolant into
drains or into the ground.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can op-
erate 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.
Empty the used oil into the
containers provided for this purpose
in the PEUGEOT network.
To maintain the reliability of
engines and emission control
systems, the use of additives
in engine oil is prohibited.
Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a
turn to release the pressure
to prevent any risk of scald-
ing. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer’s require-
ments.

CHECKS
Battery
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly, in accord-
ance with the servicing schedule.
At the start of winter, have your bat-
tery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accord-
ance with the manufacturer’s servic-
ing schedule.
Have the filter elements replaced regu-
larly. If you drive in dusty conditions,
change them twice as often.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
(DIESEL)
Brake pads
To check the main levels and certain
components, in accordance with the
manufacturer’s servicing schedule,
refer to the pages of the servicing
booklet which correspond to your ve-
hicle’s engine.
If the engine stops, it is pos-
sible to restart it to drive a
short distance by operating
the pump at least 10 times.
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
If you run out of fuel, the circuit must
be reprimed:
- fill the fuel tank with at least five li-
tres of diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual
repriming pump at least 10 times.
This is located under the protective
cover which must first be unclipped
and then removed,
It may be necessary to check
the thickness of the pads,
even between services.
Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT or
products of equivalent qual-
ity and characteristics.
Disc and drum wear status
For any information relating to disc
and drum surface wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
In order to optimise the
operation of units as important as the
braking circuit, PEUGEOT selects
and offers specific products.
- operate the starter until the engine
starts.
In order to avoid damaging the elec-
trical units, high pressure washing
to clean the engine compartment is
strictly prohibited.
Handbrake
Notes: if the engine does
not start after approximately
15 seconds of attempts, oper-
ate the repriming pump again
approximately fifteen times before
trying again.
If the emission control warning light has
come on, it will only switch off after your
vehicle has been used several times.
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
