CHECKING THE LEVELS
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A
= maximum
Never fill past this mark.
B
= minimum
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer’s requirements.
Note:
the coolant does not need to
be changed.
Dipstick
Cooling system
Use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. This fan can oper-
ate with the ignition off.
In the case of vehicles fitted with
a particle emission filter, the fan
can operate after the vehicle has
stopped, even when the engine is
cold
.
In addition, as 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 two turns to re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.
Windscreen and headlamp
wash level
Diesel additive level (Diesel
with particle emission filter)
If the service warning light comes on,
accompanied by a message and an
audible signal, this indicates a low
diesel additive level.
This additive must be topped up.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
Brake fluid level

Oil level
To maintain the reliability of
engines and emission control
systems, the use of additives
in engine oil is prohibited.

For best quality cleaning and
for your safety, we would ad-
vise that you use products
recommended by PEUGEOT.
Check the level regularly and
top up between changes. The
maximum consumption is 0.5 l
per 600 miles (1 000 km).
Check the level with the ve-
hicle level, engine cold, using the oil
level gauge on the instrument panel
or the dipstick.
Replacement must be car-
ried out according to the
manufacturer’s servicing
schedule.
