Checks

Checking levels
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).
Oil level
the check is carried out either when the
ignition is switched on using the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel (depending
on version), or using the dipstick.Engine oil change
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, never use
additives in the engine oil.
Oil specification
the oil must be the correct grade for your
engine and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Dipstick
there are two marks on the dipstick:
A = maximum
If the level is above this
mark, contact a P
e

uge
Ot

dealer or a qualified
workshop.
B = minimum
to

p up the level through the
oil filler orifice, using the
correct grade of oil for your
engine.
t
h
e level must never
be below this mark.
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 between
two services (or oil changes). P
e

uge
Ot


recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 km).
