INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS












COOLANT TEMPERATURE INDICATOR

With the engine running, when the needle is:


- in zone A
, the temperature is correct,

- in zone B
, the temperature is too high; the maximum temperature
warning lamp and the central STOP
warning lamp come on,

ENGINE OIL LEVEL INDICATOR

This information is displayed for a few seconds when the ignition is
switched on, at the same time as the service information.
The vehicle must be on level ground and the engine must have
been off for more than 30 minutes for this level check to be
accurate. After driving for a few minutes, the temperature and pressure in the
cooling system increase.
To top up the level:


)
wait for the engine to cool,

)
unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop,

)
when the pressure has dropped, remove the cap,

)
top up the level to the "MAX" mark.

COOLANT LEVEL

The coolant level should be close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the temperature 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.

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
pressure to drop. When the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.

Changing the coolant

The coolant does not have to be changed.


Fluid specification

The coolant must conform to the manufacturer's recommendations.



SCREENWASH AND HEADLAMP WASH FLUID

In the case of vehicles fi tted with headlamp washers, the low
fl uid level is indicated by an audible signal and a message in
the instrument panel screen.
Top up the reservoir when you stop the vehicle.


Fluid specification

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











ADDITIVE LEVEL (DIESEL WITH PARTICLE
EMISSIONS FILTER)
The additive reservoir low level is indicated by fi xed illumination
of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and a
message that the particle emissions fi lter additive level is too low.


Topping up

The reservoir must be topped up without delay by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.











USED PRODUCTS

Most of these fl uids are harmful to health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fl uids into sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop
(France) or to an authorised waste disposal site.
