CHECKS
Battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check that the termi-
nals are clean and correctly tight-
ened, particularly in summer and
winter.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer
to the "Battery" section for details of the pre-
cautions to be taken before disconnecting
the battery and following its reconnection.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for details
of the replacement intervals
for these components.
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the use of
the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace
them twice as often if necessary .
A clogged passenger compartment fi lter
may have an adverse effect on the per-
formance of the air conditioning system
and generate undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Replace the oil fi lter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for details
of the replacement interval for
this component.
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specifi c 12 V lead-acid bat-
tery with special technology and specifi -
cation. The involvement of a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop is essen-
tial when replacing or disconnecting the
battery.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
On a new vehicle, the fi rst particle
fi lter regeneration operations may
be accompanied by a "burning"
smell, which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of
the vehicle at very low speed or at
idle, you may, in exceptional cir-
cumstances, notice the emission
of water vapour at the exhaust on
acceleration. This does not affect
the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment.
The start of saturation of the
particle emissions fi lter is in-
dicated by the temporary illu-
mination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the risk of
blockage of the particle emissions fi lter.
As soon as the traffi c conditions per-
mit, regenerate the fi lter by driving at a
speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, refer to the
"Additive level" section.
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the war-
ranty and maintenance record and accord-
ing to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
