Limit the causes of 
excess consumption
 
 
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; 
place the heaviest items in the bottom of 
the boot, as close as possible to the rear 
seats. 
  Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and 
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof 
rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof 
box in preference. 
  Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.  
   
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres 
and refit your summer tyres.  
 
Observe the recommendations 
on maintenance 
 
 
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when 
cold, referring to the label in the door 
aperture, driver's side. 
  Carry out this check in particular: 
   
 
-   before a long journey, 
   
-   at each change of season, 
   
-   after a long period out of use.  
  Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres 
on any trailer or caravan.  
   
Have your vehicle serviced regularly 
(engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and observe 
the schedule of operations recommended 
by the manufacturer.  
 
    
When refuelling, do not continue after the 
third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any 
overflow.  
   
At the wheel of your new vehicle, 
it is only after the first 1 800 miles 
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see 
the fuel consumption settle down to a 
consistent average.

Oil level correct  
   
Low oil level 
  Flashing of  "OIL" 
, linked 
with the service warning 
lamp, accompanied by 
an audible signal and a message in the 
screen, indicates a low oil level which could 
damage the engine. 
  If the low oil level is confirmed by a check 
using the dipstick, it is essential that the 
level is topped up.  
   
Oil level gauge fault 
  Flashing of  "OIL--"  
indicates a malfunction 
of the engine oil level 
indicator. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a

LEVELS
 
To maintain the reliability of engines and 
emission control systems, the use of 
additives in engine oil is prohibited.  
  
 
Changing the brake fluid
 
The brake fluid must be changed at 
the intervals stated, according to the 
manufacturer's servicing schedule. 
  Use fluids recommended by the 
manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 standards. 
  The level must be between the MIN and 
MAX marks on the reservoir. 
  If fluid has to be added frequently, this 
indicates a fault which must be checked by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as 
soon as possible.     These regular maintenance operations 
will keep your vehicle in good running 
order. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer or the 
servicing and warranty booklet enclosed in 
the handbook pack. 
  If you have to remove / refit the engine 
style cover, handle it with care to avoid 
damaging the fixing clips. 
  Check the level regularly and top up 
between changes. 
  Check the level with the vehicle level, 
engine cold, using the dipstick. 
   
Dipstick 
  There are two marks on the 
dipstick: 
  A = maximum 
  If you fill past this mark, 
contact a PEUGEOT dealer 
or a qualified workshop. 
  B = minimum 
  Never allow the level to fall 
below this mark. Oil change 
  It is imperative that this is carried out at the 
intervals specified and the viscosity grade of 
the oil selected must fulfil the requirements 
in accordance with the manufacturer's 
servicing schedule. Ask for advice from a 
PEUGEOT dealer. 
  Remove the dipstick before filling. 
  For the 2 litre HDi engine, use the funnel 
supplied when filling via the sump opening. 
  Check the level after filling (never exceed 
the max mark). 
  Screw the cap back onto the sump before 
closing the bonnet. 
   
Viscosity selection 
  In all cases, the oil selected must meet the 
manufacturer's requirements.  
 
 
 
Warning lamps
 
Checking by means of the warning 
lamps in the instrument panel 
is described in chapter 2, refer to the 
"Instruments and controls" section.
