Checks
Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly and top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
When working under the bonnet, take
care, as cer tain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns).
Oil level
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.
This manual check will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine has
been off for more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two ser vices (or oil changes). PEUGEOT
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
After topping up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel is not valid
during the 30 minutes after topping up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the Warranty and Maintenance Record
for details of the inter val 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 be the correct grade for your
engine and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
The brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.

Changing the fl uid
Refer to the Warranty and Maintenance Record
for details of the inter val for this operation.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fluid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and meet the
DOT4 standard.
Power steering fluid level
The power steering fluid level should
be close to the "MA X" mark. Unscrew
the cap, with the engine cold,
to check the level.
