responsibly. Sensors fi tted in each valve trigger a warning in the event of a problem
(speed above 12 mph (20 km/h)).

PARTNERS IN PERFORMANCE
AND PROTECTION OF
THE ENVIRONMENT

Innovation at the service of performance

The TOTAL Research and Development teams
develop lubricants for PEUGEOT which satisfy the
requirements of the latest technical innovations
incorporated in PEUGEOT vehicles.
This ensures that you obtain the best performance
and the maximum engine life.


Reduced exhaust emissions

TOTAL lubricants are formulated to optimise the
effi ciency of engines and the protection of the
emissions post-treatment systems. It is crucial to
observe the servicing recommendations made by
PEUGEOT to ensure correct operation.

CHECKING LEVELS



















OIL LEVEL


The check is carried out either when the ignition is switched
on using the oil level indicator in the instrument panel, or using
the dipstick.
It will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30 minutes.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start
at any time (even with the ignition off).



If a level drops signifi cantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the servicing booklet and the requirements of the warranties. Top them up if necessary, unless otherwise indicated.


Engine oil change

Refer to the servicing and warranty booklet 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. It is normal to top up the oil level between two services (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.


Oil specification

The oil must be the correct grade for your engine and conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.












BRAKE FLUID LEVEL

The brake fl uid level should be close to the "MAX" mark.
If it is not, check the brake pad wear.

Changing the fluid

Refer to the servicing and warranty booklet for details of the interval
for this operation.


Fluid specification

The brake fl uid must conform to the manufacturer's recommendations
and meet the DOT3 or DOT4 standard.












POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL

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

MANUAL GEARBOX






AUTOMATIC GEARBOX















BRAKE PADS
BRAKE DISC WEAR

The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing and warranty booklet for the details of
the level checking interval for this component.
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing and warranty booklet for details of the
level checking interval for this component.
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 on checking brake disc wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
















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























PARKING BRAKE


If excessive travel or a loss of effectiveness of this system
is noticed, the parking brake must be checked, even
between two services.

Checking this system must be done by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
