Checking levels Engine Oil level Carry out this check regularly and top up between oil changes
(the
maximum consumption is 0.5 litre per
600 miles (1000 km)). The check mustbe carried out with the vehicle leveland the engine cold.
There are two levelmarks on the dips-tick: A= maximum.
B = minimum. Viscosity grade selectionThe oil selected must always meet the
manufacturerÕs requirements. Oil filter Change the cartridge regularly in accordance with the recommenda-tions of the servicing schedule. Used oil
Avoid any prolonged contact of used oil with the skin. Do not discard used oil down drains or on the ground.
To maintain the reliability of the engines and emission control sys-tems, the use of additives in the oil isprohibited. Brake fluid reservoir
- The level must always be above the
DANGER mark on the tank.
- In the event of a significant drop in the level, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
immediately. Fluid change
- Always to be carried out at the inter-
vals given in the manufacturer's ser- vicing schedule.
- Use fluids approved by the manu- facturer which comply with DOT4.
Coolant reservoir Use a coolant approved by the manu-
facturer. When the engine is warm, the coolant temperature is controlled by the engi-
ne fan. As this fan can operate with theignition key removed and because thecooling circuit is pressurised, wait at
least an hour after switching off theengine before carrying out any work. In the event of a breakdown and to avoid any risk of burns, unscrew thecap two turns to let the pressure drop.When the pressure has dropped,remove the cap and top up the level.
Oil change: in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
- Dipstick: never exceed the maxi- mum mark A.
- Instrument dial gauge.
