CHECKING LEVELS
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 using
the dipstick.
Between two oil changes, the consumption
should not exceed 0.5 litre per 600 miles
(1,000 km). T h e b r a k e fl 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.

Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
Power steering fluid level T h e p o w e r s t e e r i n g fl u i d l e v e l
