FILLING WITH FUEL
Capacity of the fuel tank: approximately 45 litres.
Low fuel level
When the minimum fuel tank level
is reached, this warning lamp
comes on. When it first comes on,
you have approximately 6 litres
of fuel remaining. Refuel without delay to
avoid running out of fuel.
An arrow in the instrument panel indicates
which side of the vehicle the filler flap is
located.
Refuelling must be done with the engine off.
-
Open the fuel filler flap.
-
Hold the filler cap with one hand.
-
With the other hand, insert the key
, then
turn it a third of a turn.
-
Remove the filler cap and hang it on the
hook, located on the inside of the filler
flap.
FUEL CUT-OFF
In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle's electrical supply.
It also automatically unlocks the doors
and switches on of the courtesy lamps. A
message appears in the instrument panel
screen according to version.
turn the key to the
STOP position to prevent
discharging of the battery.
Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in S
t
OP
mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key. When the fuel filler flap is open, a
safety system prevents sliding of the
side door (Combi).
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
Opening the filler cap may cause a noise
resulting from the inrush of air.
t
his vacuum
is quite normal and results from the sealing
of the fuel system.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle; this could
cause malfunctions.
After filling the fuel tank, lock the filler cap
and close the flap.

STOP position, turn
the key to the RUNNING position,
-
push the direction indicator control stalk
fully upwards,
-
place it in the "Of

-
press the direction indicator control stalk
fully downwards,

Fuel used for petrol engines
the petrol engines are compatible with
e
10 bio-petrol (containing 10 % ethanol),
conforming to European standards EN 228
and
e N 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles marketed for the use of this type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles).
t
he quality of
the ethanol must comply with
e uropean
standard EN 15293.
Fuel used for Diesel engines
the Diesel engines are perfectly with
biofuels which conform to current and future
e
uropean standards (Diesel fuel which
complies with standard EN 590 mixed with
a biofuel which complies with standard
e
N 14214) available at the pumps
(containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl
e
ster).
t
he B30 biofuel can be used in certain
Diesel engines; however, this use is subject
to strict application of the special servicing
conditions indicated in the warranty and
maintenance record. Contact a P
euge O t
dealer or a qualified workshop.
t
he use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).

LEVELS
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up
between changes.
t
he maximum oil
consumption is 0.5 litre per 600 miles
(1 000
km). Check the level with the vehicle
level, engine cold, using the dipstick.
Dipstick
t
here are two marks on the
dipstick:
A = maximum
If you fill past this mark,
contact a P
euge O t
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
B = minimum
Never allow the level to fall
below this mark.
to preserve the reliability of engines and
emission control systems, the use of
additives in engine oil is prohibited. Oil change
Brake fluid level
the brake fluid must be changed at
the specified interval, as given in the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
u
se fluids recommended by the
manufacturer, which meets the DO
t 4
standard.
t
he 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
P
euge O t
dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
Warning lamps
Checking by means of the warning
lamps in the instrument panel is
described in the "Ready to set off -
Instruments and controls" section.
t
his must be carried out at the specified
interval and the viscosity grade of the oil
selected must fulfil the requirements of the
manufacturer's servicing schedule. Ask
for advice from a P

Engine coolant level
Only use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer. Otherwise, you risk seriously
damaging your engine. When the engine
is warm, the temperature of the coolant is
controlled by the engine cooling fan. As this fan
can operate with the ignition key removed and
because the cooling system is pressurised,
wait for at least one hour after the engine has
stopped before carrying out any work.
Topping up
t
he level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the header tank. If more than
1 litre of fluid is required to top up the level,
have the system checked by a P
euge O t
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Power steering fluid level
the vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold. u nscrew the cap with
integral gauge and check the level which
must be between the MIN and MAX marks.
Screenwash fluid level
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
topping up or replacement of this fluid
should never be with plain water; we
recommend the use of products available
from P
euge O t
dealers.
Capacity of the reservoir: approximately
3
litres.
Slacken the cap by two turns to release the
pressure to prevent any risk of scalding.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level with coolant.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a fault which must be checked by a
P
euge
O
t
dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil with the
skin.
Brake fluid is harmful to health and very
corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid or
coolant into drains or into the ground, but
into the containers provided for this purpose
at P
euge O t
dealers (France) or at an
authorised waste disposal site.

Bleeding water from the Diesel filter
If this warning lamp comes
on, you must bleed the filter;
otherwise bleed the filter
regularly, every time the engine
oil is changed.
to remove the water
, unscrew the bleed
screw or the water in Diesel sensor, located
at the base of the filter. Operate until all of
the water has flowed out.
t
hen tighten the
bleed screw or the water sensor.
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a P euge O t
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Air filter and passenger compartment
filter
A blocked passenger compartment filter
may reduce the performance of the
air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.
t
he replacement
intervals for these components are indicated
in the warranty and maintenance record.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle
(urban driving...), change them twice as
often if necessary.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the type of
driving, in particular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short distances. It may
be necessary to check the brake pad wear,
even between services.
u
nless there is a leak on the system, a drop
in the brake fluid level indicates that the
brake pads are worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For all information on checking the brake
disc / drum wear, contact a P euge O t
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a P
euge O t
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
t
he presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates the
use of a specific 12 V lead-acid battery
with special technology and specification.
t
he involvement of a P
euge
O
t
dealer
or a qualified workshop is essential when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.
Refer to the "Checks -
