Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop (France) or to an
authorised waste disposal site.

Checks





























Checks
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the Maintenance and Warranty Guide and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.


Battery

The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check that the terminals
are clean and correctly tightened,
particularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer to the "Practical
information" section for details of the precautions to be taken
before disconnecting the battery and following its reconnection.

Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of the
replacement inter vals for these
components.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often
if necessary
(refer to the "Engines" section).
A clogged passenger compar tment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.

Air filter and passenger compartment filter

Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.

Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of
the replacement inter val for this
component.


Oil filter






The presence of this label, in particular with
the Stop & Star t system, indicates the use of
a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
technology and specification, for which the
involvement of a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop is required when replacing
or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to obser ve this recommendation may
shor ten the life of the battery.










Particle emission filter (Diesel)

Display of this warning lamp or a specific
message, together with the ser vice warning lamp,
indicates the star t of saturation of the par ticle
filter or low level in the Diesel additive reser voir.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a
speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the ser vice warning lamp goes off.
If the ser vice warning lamp stays on,
this indicates a low additive level. Have
the additive reser voir topped up and
the par ticle emission filter ser viced
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or
the environment.

Checks






Manual gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the Maintenance and Warranty
Guide for the details of the level
checking interval for this component.







6-speed electronic gearbox
system
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of the
checking interval for this component.







Automatic gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).

Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of the
level checking inter val for this
component. Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, par ticularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over shor t
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the system, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
















Brake pads

For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.


Brake disc wear

If a loss of effectiveness of this
system is noticed, the parking brake
must be checked, even between
two ser vices.
Checking this system must be done by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.






















Electric parking brake

This system does not require any
routine servicing. However, in the
event of a problem, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
For more information, see "Driving - Electric

Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.

of units as impor tant as the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and offers
very specific products.
To avoid damaging the electrical units,

The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced by an equal amount; warning,
towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for
each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the per formance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient temperature is above 37 °C,
limit the towed load.
