Checking levels
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when the ignition is switched on using the oil level indicator in the instrument panel for vehicles with and electric oil level gauge, or using the dipstick.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the warranty and maintenance record. 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.
To ensure that the reading is correct, your vehicle must be 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). 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).
Before doing anything under the bonnet, switch off the ignition ( Ready lamp off) to avoid any risk of injury resulting from automatic operation of
the engine.
Checking using the dipstick
Refer to the "Diesel engine" section for the location of the dipstick in the engine compartment of your vehicle. - Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and remove it completely. - Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean non-fluffy cloth. - Refit the dipstick and push fully down, then pull it out again to make the visual check: the correct level is between the marks Aand B .
A = MA X
B = MIN
If you find that the level is above the A mark or below the B mark, do not star t the engine . - If the level is above the MAX mark (risk of damage to the engine), contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
- If the level is below the MIN mark, you must top up the engine oil.

Checks193
Brake fluid level
The brake fluid level should be close to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check the brake pad wear.
Changing the fl uid
Refer to the warranty and maintenance record for details of the interval for this operation.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fluid must conform to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Power steering fluid level
The power steering fluid level should be close to the "MA X" mark. With the engine cold, unscrew the cap to check the level.
Topping up the engine oil level
Oil grade The oil must be the correct grade for your engine and conform to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Refer to the "Diesel engine" section for the
location of the oil filler cap in the engine compartment of your vehicle. - Unscrew the oil filler cap to reveal the filler aperture. - Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills on engine components (risk of fire). - Wait a few minutes before checking the level again using the dipstick. - Add more oil if necessary. - After checking the level, carefully refit the oil filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
After topping up the oil, the check when switching on the ignition with the oil level indicator in the instrument panel is not valid during the 30 minutes after topping up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the warranty and maintenance record 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.
Checks

Brake disc wear
Brake pads
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 fluid level indicates that the brake pads are worn.
For information on checking brake disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change). Refer to the warranty and maintenance record for details of the checking interval for this component.
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine servicing. However, in the event of a problem, have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by PEUGEOT or products of equivalent quality and specification. In order to optimise the operation of units as important as those in the braking system, PEUGEOT selects and offers very specific products. After washing the vehicle, dampness, or in wintry conditions, ice can form on the brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may be reduced. Make light brake applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
For more information, refer to the "Electric parking brake - Operating faults" section.
Practical information

Removing the cartridge
Stow the black pipe. Detach the angled base from the white pipe. Support the compressor vertically. Unscrew the cartridge from the bottom. Connect the compressor's electrical connector to the vehicle's 12 V socket. Start the vehicle and let the engine run. Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B in position "I" ; to deflate: switch B in position "O" and press
button C ), according to the vehicle's tyre pressure label or the accessory's pressure label. Remove the kit then stow it.
Checking tyre pressures /
inflating accessories
You can also use the compressor, without injecting any product, to: - check or adjust the pressure of your tyres, - inflate other accessories (balls, bicycle tyres...).
Turn the selector A to the "Air" position. Uncoil the black pipe H fully. Connect the black pipe to the valve of the wheel or accessory. If necessary, fit one of the adaptors supplied with the kit first.
Beware of discharges of fluid. The expiry date of the fluid is indicated on the cartridge. The sealant cartridge is designed for single use; even if only partly used, it must be replaced. After use, do not discard the cartridge into the environment, take it to an authorised waste disposal site or a PEUGEOT dealer. Do not forget to obtain a new sealant cartridge, available from PEUGEOT dealers or from a qualified workshop.
