INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
When the engine is running or the vehi-
cle is moving, the lighting of one of the
following warning lights indicates the
occurrence of a fault requiring interven-
tion on the part of the driver. Central alert.
Lighting is associated with
the displaying of another
warning light:
- punctured wheel,
- braking,
- power steering,
- engine oil pressure,
- coolant temperature,
stop the vehicle immediately and as
safely as possible.
Service.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a problem in one
of the systems which does not
h a v e a s p e c i fi c w a r n i n g l i g h t .
In order to identify it, consult the mes-
sage on the multifunction display.
After checking:
- that the doors, boot, the rear screen and bonnet are closed,
- the engine oil level,
- t h e s c r e e n w a s h fl u i d l e v e l ,
- the remote control battery,
- the pressure of the tyres,
- the end of saturation of the particle e m i s s i o n fi l t e r ( D i e s e l ) ,
for any other situations, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer. Braking.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a fault in one of
the braking systems:
- s i g n i fi c a n t d r o p i n t h e l e v e l i n t h e circuit,
- electronic brake force distribution (EBFD) faulty (simultaneous
lighting of the ABS warning light),
stop the vehicle immediately and as
safely as possible.
When the vehicle is moving, check that
the handbrake is fully released.
Any fault resulting in the displaying
of a warning light must be the subject
of further diagnostics by reading the
associated message on the multi-
function display.
Should you encounter any prob-
lems, do not hesitate to contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Warning lights
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS).
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a fault in the anti-
lock braking system.
However, this does not prevent opera-
tion of the vehicle’s assisted braking.
Common warning lights
Dynamic stability control
(ESP/ASR).
The ESP/ASR system is put
into service automatically when
the vehicle is started.
Unless the system has been deactivated,
if this warning light and the indicator light
on the button come on continuously, this
indicates the occurrence of a fault in
the ESP/ASR system or in the hill start
assistance.

Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.

corresponding circuit checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Brake fluid level
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
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 us-
ing the dipstick.
