  Avoid prolonged contact of 
used oil or fl uids with the skin. 
  Most of these fl uids are harm-
ful 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.

Topping up 
  This additive must be topped up by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed  work-
shop without delay.  
    A low additive level is indi-
cated by illumination of the 
service warning lamp, accom-
panied by an audible warning 
and a message in the instrument panel 
screen.     
Fluid specifi cation 
  For optimum cleaning and to avoid 
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped 
up with or replaced with plain water.  
     
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 next stop 
the vehicle.

The cooling fan may start after 
switching off the engine: take care 
with articles and clothing that might 
become caught by the fan blades. 
 
 
   
Fluid specifi cation 
  The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.  
     
Changing the coolant 
  The coolant does not have to be 
changed.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
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. 
  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 pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has 
dropped, remove the cap and top up 
the level.

Model with xenon and directional 
headlamps   The headlamps are fi tted  with 
polycarbonate glass with a 
protective coating: 
   
 
 ) 
  do not clean them using a dry 
or abrasive cloth, nor with a 
detergent or solvent product, 
 
   
 ) 
  use a sponge and soapy water or 
a pH neutral product, 
   
 ) 
  when using a high pressure wash-
er on persistent marks, do not 
keep the lance directed towards 
the lamps or their edges for too 
long, so as not to damage their 
protective coating and seals, 
   
 ) 
  do not touch the bulb directly with 
your fi ngers, use lint-free cloths.  
 
 
Front lamps  
 
 
Changing a bulb should only be 
done after the headlamp has been 
switched off for a few minutes (risk of 
serious burns). 
  It is imperative to use only anti-ultra-
violet (UV) type bulbs in order not to 
damage the headlamp. 
  Always replace a failed bulb with a 
new bulb with the same type and 
specifi cation.
