insert the key into the passenger
air bag disarming switch 1 , turn
it to the "OFF" position, then re-
move the key keeping the slot in
this position.
The air bag warning light
on the instrument panel is
lit throughout the period of
disarming. In the
"OFF" position, the passen-
ger air bag will not be triggered in the
event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the air bag slot to the "ON" po-
sition to re-activate the air bag and
thus ensure the safety of your pas-
senger in the event of an impact.
With the ignition on (2nd notch),
illumination of this warning light
indicates that the passenger
air bag is disarmed (switch in
the "OFF" position).

To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil
is prohibited.

In all cases, the oil selected must

ments. Cooling system

manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can op-
erate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.
Note: the coolant does not need to
be changed. Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the en-
gine at ambient temperature. The
level should always be above the
MIN. mark and close to the MAX.
mark.
Windscreen wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products recommended by PEUGEOT.
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. The maxi-
mum consumption is 0.5 l per
600 miles (1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the oil level gauge
on the instrument panel or the dip-
stick.
