WARNING LIGHTS AND INDICATORS
A permanently lit warning light, or flashing with the engine running, is an indication of a malfunction in the relevant unit. Some warning lights may
be linked to buzzers and a message on the multiÐfunction display. Do notignore this warning: contact a PEUGEOT dealer as quickly as possible.
If the Central (STOP) warning light comes on when you are driving, stop your vehicle immediately where it is safe to do so.
Central (STOP) warning light Linked to the "engine oil pressure", ''the low brake fluid level'', '' the coolant temperature gauge'' and ''electronic brake force distribu-tion system fault'' warning lights. It comes on each time the igni-tion is switched on.
Stop immediately if it flashes with the engine running.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil pressure warning light
Linked to the central (STOP) warning light.Stop immediately if it comes on with the engine running.
It indicates either:
Ðinsufficient oil pressure,Ðlack of oil in the lubrication circuit. Top up the oil level.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible. Low coolant level warning light
Stop immediately. Allow the engine to cool before top- ping up. The cooling system is pressurised.In the event of a breakdown and to prevent the risk of scalding, turn thecap to the first notch to allow thepressure to drop. Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up the level.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Fuel filler cap warning light This comes on if the fuel cap is not correctly screwed
on or is missing.

Handbrake, low brake fluid level and electronic brake force distribution warning light. This comes on each time the ignition is switched on.
It indicates either:
Ðthat the handbrake is on or has not been released correctly,
and when coupled with the central (STOP) warning light:
Ðan excessive drop in the brake fluid level (if the light remains on even with the handbrake released),
Ðlit at the same time as the ABS warning light, it indicates a malfunction of theelectronic brake force distribution system.
Stop immediately.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) warning light This comes on for 3 seconds each time the ignition is switched on.If it comes on at over 8 m.p.h. (12 km/h), it indicates a malfunction of the ABS.
However, the vehicle retains conventional servo-assisted braking.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Clogging of the partic- ulate emission filterwarning light (dieselengine)
Display of this warning light is accompanied by an audible signal. The flashing of this light while the engine is running is caused either bythe particulate emission filter being
overloaded or by the engine runningtoo long at idle (white smoke from
the exhaust). There is a risk of the fil-ter clogging if the same conditions ofoperation are maintained. As soon as possible, drive for at least three minutes at a speedexceeding 37 m.p.h. (60 km/h), if driving conditions allow this. If the light comes on, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possi-ble. Front brake pad wear warning light
For your safety, have the pads replaced as soon as this light comes on.
ESP Electronic Stabili- ty Programme opera-
tion indicator light
