CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your bat-
tery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
Oil filter
Change the ilter regularly, in accord-
ance with the servicing schedule.Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT.
To ensure best performance
from components as impor-
tant as the power steering and the
braking system, PEUGEOT selects
and offers quite speciic products.
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, avoid washing the engine.
Fuel supply cut-off
In a serious collision, a system pre-
vents fuel from reaching the engine.
To re-establish the fuel supply, press
the switch on the angle of the front
left-hand suspension assembly, under
the bonnet.
Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Have the ilter elements replaced
regularly. If you drive in dusty
conditions, change them twice as
often.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to check the
thickness of the pads, even between
services.
Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Manual gearbox
This does not require an oil change.
Check the level in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and cer-
tain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corre-
spond to your vehicle's engine.
