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:
Ð that the handbrake is on or has not been released correctly,
and when coupled with the central (STOP) warning light:
Ð an excessive drop in the brake fluid level (if the light remains on even with the handbrake released),
Ð lit at the same time as the ABS warning light, it indicates a malfunction of the electronic 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 particulate emissionfilter warning light(diesel engine)
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 beingoverloaded 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 dri-ving conditions allow this. If the light comes on, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon aspossible. Front brake pad wear warning light
For your safety, have the pads replaced as soon as this light comes on.
