CHECKING LEVELS Engine oil Oil level check Carry out this check regularly and top up between oil changes
; the
maximum consumption is 0.5 litre per600 miles (1000 km). The check must be carried out with the vehicle level and the engine cold..
There are two levelmarks on the dipstick: A= maximum.
B = minimum. Viscosity grade selectionThe oil selected must always meet the manufacturer's 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 onto 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
Ð The level must always be above the
DANGER mark on the tank.
Ð In the event of a significant drop in the level, contact a PEUGEOT deal-
er immediately. Fluid change
Ð Always to be carried out at the inter-
vals given in the manufacturer's ser- vicing schedule.
Ð Use fluids approved by the manu- facturer which comply with DOT4standards.
Coolant reservoir Use a coolant approved by the manu-
facturer. When the engine is warm, the coolant
temperature is controlled by the fan.This may operate with the ignition key
removed. Therefore, as the coolingcircuit is pressurised, wait at least an
hour after switching off the enginebefore 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.
Ð Dipstick: never exceed the maximum mark A.
Ð Instrument dial gauge.
