Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check that the terminals are clean
and correctl
y tightened, particularly in summer and winter.
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. The involvement
of a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop is essential when replacing or disconnecting
the battery.
Particle emissions filter (Diesel)

The star t of saturation of the particle filter is indicated by the fixed
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a warning message
in the screen (if a display screen isfitted).
On a new vehicle, the first particlefilter regeneration operations may beaccompanied by a "burnt" smell, which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of thevehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the emission of water vapour atthe exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the ser vicin
g and warranty booklet and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter

Refer to the ser vicing and warrantybooklet for details of the replacement
inter vals for these components.
Oil filter
Replace the oil filter each time theengine oil is changed.
Refer to the servicing and warrantybooklet for details of the replacement
interval for this component. Depending on the environment
(e.g. dustyatmosphere) and the use of the vehicle(e.g. city driving), replace them twice as oftenif necessary.y
A clogged passenger compartment filter may have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generateundesirable odours. When carr
ying 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.
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 warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a
low additive level.
