CHECKS
CHECKING LEVELS
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.
It 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 be-
tween two services (or oil changes).
PEUGEOT recommends that you check
the level, and top up if necessary, every
3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
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 work-
shop.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line
with the servicing booklet and the re-
quirements of the warranty. Top them up
if necessary, unless otherwise indicated.
After topping up the oil, the
check when switching on the
ignition with the oil level indi-
cator in the instrument panel
is not valid during the 30 minutes
after topping up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing 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.

The power steering fl uid level
should be close to the "MAX"
mark. With the engine cold, un-
screw the cap to check the level.
Fluid specifi cation

manufacturer's recommendations and
meet the DOT3 or DOT4 standard.
Changing the fl uid

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 quali-
fi ed workshop.
