Checking levels
Engine oil level
The check of the oil level is carried
out with the dipstick, located under
the bonnet. For the position of the
dipstick, refer to the under-bonnet
view on a previous page.Checking with dipstick
If you find that the oil level is above the A mark
or below the B mark, do not star t the engine.
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).
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.
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 km).
To ensure the accuracy of the reading, your
vehicle must be on a level sur face, with the
engine off for at least 30 minutes.
-

I
f the level is above
the MAX mark (risk of
engine damage), contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
-

I
f the level is below the
MIN mark, you must top-
up the engine oil.
Refer to the under-bonnet view for the location
of the dipstick on your vehicle.

CD, USB
AUDIO
Playing a compilationInsert an MP3 compilation in the CD player
or connect a memory stick to the USB port,
directly or via an extension lead.
The system creates playlists (temporary memory) the creation time
for which can take from a few seconds to several minutes.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition is switched off or a
USB memory stick is connected.
Play starts automatically after a period which depends on the
capacity of the USB memory stick.

Table). At a first connection, the order suggested is by folder.
When connecting again, the order previously chosen is
retained.

USING THE TELEPHONE
Pairing a telephone
First connection
The services offered depend on the network, the SIM card and the compatibility of the B\
luetooth telephone used.
Consult your telephone's manual and your operator to find out which services are available to you.
Activate the telephone's Bluetooth function and
ensure that it is "visible to all" (refer to the telephone
user guide). Press MENU. A window is displayed "
Search in progress…".
Select the telephone to be connected
from the list. Only one telephone can
be connected at a time. Select "Search for a device".

art of the driver, the operations for pairing of the Bluetooth mobile
telephone with the Bluetooth hands-free system of your audio system must\
be carried out with the
vehicle stationary and the ignition on.
Visit www.peugeot.co.uk for more information (compatibility, additional help,
...).
