cle is moving, the lighting of one of the
following warning lights indicates the oc-
currence of a fault which requires action
on the part of the driver. Centralised alert.
Lighting of the centralised alert
is associated with the lighting
of another warning light:
- punctured wheel,
- braking,
- engine oil pressure,
- coolant temperature.
It is imperative that the vehicle is
stopped as soon as it is safe to do so. Service.
Lighting of the service warning
light indicates the occurrence of
a problem in one of the systems
w h i c h d o e s n o t h a v e a s p e c i i c

After checking:
- the remote control battery,
- the engine oil level,
- the screenwash level,
for other cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Punctured tyre.
The lighting of this warning light
indicates that one or more tyres
are punctured. It is imperative
that the vehicle is stopped as soon as it
is safe to do so.

Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
I f a l e v e l d r o p s s i g n i i c a n t l y , h a v e t h e
corresponding circuit checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Brake fluid level
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.
Oil level The reading will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for
more than 15 minutes.
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the oil
level indicator on the instrument panel,
or using the dipstick.
Between two oil changes, the consump-
tion should not exceed 0.5 litre per
600 miles (1,000 km). T h e b r a k e l u i d l e v e l s h o u l d b e
close to the "MAX" mark. If it is
not, check the brake pad wear.
Draining the circuit
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
Coolant level The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is regulated
by the fan. This can operate with the ig-
nition off.
