booklet enclosed in the handbook pack.
LEVELS

Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up
between changes. The maximum
consumption is 0.5 l per 600 miles
(1 000 km). Check the level with the vehicle
level, engine cold, using the dipstick.

Dipstick
There are two marks on the
dipstick:

A = maximum
If you fill past this mark,
consult a dealer.

B = minimum
Never allow the level to fall
below this mark.
To maintain the reliability of engines and
emission control systems, the use of
additives in engine oil is prohibited.
Oil change
It is imperative that this is carried out at the
intervals specified and the viscosity grade of
the oil selected must fulfil the requirements
in accordance with the manufacturer ’s
servicing schedule. Consult the instructions
at a PEUGEOT dealership.
Remove the dipstick before filling.
Check the level after filling (never exceed
the maximum mark).
Screw the cap back onto the sump before
closing the bonnet.
Changing the brake fluid
The brake fluid must be changed at
the intervals stated, according to the
manufacturer ’s servicing schedule.
Use fluids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 standards.
The level must be between the MIN and

MAX marks on the reservoir.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by
a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.

Warning lights
Checking by means of the warning
lights on the instrument panel

Checks
CHECKS

Bleeding the water contained in the
diesel filter
If this warning light comes on,
bleed the filter, otherwise bleed
regularly each time the engine is
drained.
To evacuate the water, unscrew the bleed
screw or the water in diesel sensor, located
at the base of the filter. Operate until all

guaranteed by a PEUGEOT dealer .

Battery
At the start of winter, have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer .
Air filter and passenger compartment
filter
A clogged passenger compartment fi lter may
reduce the performance of the air conditioning
system and generate undesirable odours. The
replacement intervals for these components
are indicated in the servicing booklet.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle
(urban driving...), change them twice as often
if necessary, refer to the "Under the bonnet"
section of chapter 7.

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.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a drop
in the brake fluid level indicates that the
brake pads are worn.

Brake disc/drum wear status
For any information relating to checking
the brake disc/drum wear status, consult a
PEUGEOT dealer .
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 it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer .

Oil filter
Change the filter regularly, in accordance
with the servicing schedule.
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer ’s servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and certain
components, in accordance with the
manufacturer ’s servicing schedule, refer
to the pages of the servicing booklet which
correspond to your vehicle’s engine.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent quality
and characteristics.
