INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
When the engine is running or the ve-
hicle is moving, the lighting of one of the
following warning lamps 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 lamp:


- punctured wheel,

- braking,

- power steering,

- engine oil pressure,

- coolant temperature,
stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so.

Service.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a problem in one
of the systems which does not
have a specifi c warning lamp.
To identify the problem, consult the
message on the multifunction screen.
Braking.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a fault in one of
the braking systems:


- signifi cant drop in the brake fl uid
level,

- electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD) faulty (simultaneous
lighting of the ABS warning lamp),
stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so.
When the vehicle is moving, check that
the parking brake is fully released. Any fault resulting in the displaying
of a warning lamp must be investi-
gated further by reading the associ-
ated message on the multifunction
screen.
In the event of diffi culty, do not
hesitate to contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.









Warning lamps

Common warning lamps After checking:


- that the doors, boot, the rear
screen and bonnet are closed,

- the engine oil level,

- the screenwash fl uid level,

- the remote control battery,

- the pressure of the tyres,

- the end of saturation of the particle
emission
fi lter (Diesel),
for any other situations, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.

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 operation
of the vehicle's servo-assisted braking.

INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS


Engine autodiagnostics
system.

If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a fault in the en-
gine management system.
If it fl ashes, it indicates the occurrence
of a fault in the emission control system.

Maximum coolant
temperature.
If this comes on, it indicates that
the temperature in the cooling
system is too high. Stop the vehicle as
soon as it is safe to do so.
Low fuel level.
When this fi rst comes on, you
have approximately 6 litres
of
fuel remaining in the tank.
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid run-
ning out of fuel.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added,
this warning lamp comes on again each
time the ignition is switched on, along
with an audible signal and a message.
According to version, this audible signal
and this message are repeated, at in-
creasingly shorter intervals as the level
decreases towards "0"
.
Capacity of the tank: approximately
60 litres
.

Door open.
A door, the boot or the rear
screen is open:
Battery charge.
If this comes on, it indicates
the occurrence of a fault in the
battery charging circuit (dirty or
loose terminals, slack or cut alternator
belt...).
Engine oil pressure.

If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a fault in the en-
gine lubrication system. Stop
the vehicle as soon as it is safe
to do so.

Specifi c warning lamps


Dynamic stability control
(ESP/ASR).

The ESP/ASR system is put
into service automatically when
the vehicle is started.
Unless the system has been deactiva-
ted, if this warning lamp and the indicator
lamp on the button come on continuously,
this indicates the occurrence of a fault in
the ESP/ASR system or in the hill start
assist system.



- if the speed is below 6 mph
(10 km/h), this warning lamp
comes on continuously.

- if the speed is higher than 6 mph
(10 km/h), this warning lamp comes
on continuously, accompanied by
an audible signal.
Never continue to drive until you
run out of fuel, this could damage
the emission control and injection
systems.


Foot on brake.
On the 6-speed electronic gear
system gearbox, with the gear
lever in position N
, press the
brake pedal to start the engine.
On the automatic gearbox, with the en-
gine running, press the brake pedal to
release the gear lever and disengage
position P
.

action on the wiper stalk, it indi-
cates that the screenwash fl uid
level is low.

CHECKS
CHECKING LEVELS
Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the
corresponding system 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 igni-
tion is switched on using the oil level indicator
on the instrument panel, or using the dipstick.
The brake fl uid level should be
close to the "MAX" mark. If it is
not, check the brake pad wear.

Changing the fl uid
Refer to the Maintenance and Warranty
Guide for details of the interval for this
operation.


Power steering fluid level

The power steering fl uid level
should be close to the "MAX"
mark. Unscrew the cap, with the
engine cold, to check the level.

Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
In the case of vehicles fi tted
with headlamp washers, the
minimum level of this fl uid is
indicated by an audible signal
and a message on the multifunction
screen.
Top up the level when you stop the
vehicle.
Engine oil change
Refer to the Maintenance and Warranty
Guide for details of the interval for this
operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.

Oil specifi cation
The oil must correspond to your en-
gine and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.

Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and
fulfi l the DOT4 standards.

Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be
changed.

Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up with or replaced with plain water.



Coolant level

The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the tempera-
ture of the coolant is regulated by the fan.
This can operate with the ignition off.

On vehicles which are fi tted with a
particle emission fi lter, the fan may
operate after the vehicle has been
switched off, even if the engine is
cold.

Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.

When working under the bonnet,
take care, as certain areas of the
engine may be extremely hot (risk
of burns).

CHECKS
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specifi cations.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and of-
fers very specifi c products.
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compartment
is strictly prohibited
.


Brake disc wear




















Brake pads

Parking brake

Brake wear depends on the
style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It
may be necessary to have the
condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
For information relating to
checking the brake disc wear,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
If a loss of effectiveness of this
system is noticed, the parking
brake must be checked, even
between two services.

This system must be checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer.

quire any maintenance (no oil
change).

Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for the details
of the level checking interval
for this component.
