Engine oil level indicator*
Oil level correct
This is indicated by the display of the message 
"Oil level incorrect" in the instrument panel 
screen, accompanied by the service warning 
lamp and an audible signal.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using 
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to 
avoid damage to the engine.
For more information on Checking levels, 
refer to the corresponding section.
Oil level indicator fault
In the event of a fault with the electric 
indicator, the oil level is no longer 
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check 
the engine oil level using the manual 
dipstick located under the bonnet.
For more information on Checking 
levels , refer to the corresponding 
section.
Oil level incorrect
This is signalled by the display of the message 
"Oil level measurement invalid" in the 
instrument panel.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
On versions fitted with an electric oil level 
indicator, the state of the engine oil level is 
displayed in the instrument panel for a few 
seconds, after the servicing information.
* Depending on version. The level read will only be correct if 
the vehicle is on level ground and the 
engine has been off for more than 
30
 
minutes.

Checking levels
The check is carried out either when 
the ignition is switched on using the 
oil level indicator in the instrument 
panel for vehicles so equipped, or 
using the dipstick.
Engine oil level
Checking using the dipstick
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 kms).A = MA X
B = MINIf you find that the level is above the A mark or 
below the B mark, do not star t the engine
.

I
 f the level is above the MAX mark (risk 
of damage to the engine), contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
-
 
I
 f the level is below the MIN mark, you 
must top-up the engine oil.
Oil grade
Before topping-up the oil or changing the oil, 
check that the oil is the correct grade for your 
engine and conforms to the manufacturer's 
recommendations.
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).
To ensure that the reading is correct, 
your vehicle must be parked on a level 
sur face with the engine having been off 
for more than 30 minutes.
The location of the dipstick is shown in the

level indicator in the instrument panel 
is not valid during the 30 minutes after 
topping-up.
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.
Brake fluid level
Changing the fluid
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule 
for details of the interval for this operation.
Fluid specification
The brake fluid must conform to the 
manufacturer's recommendations. The brake fluid level should be close 
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check 
the brake pad wear.

illumination of this warning lamp accompanied 
by a message in the multifunction screen.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit, 
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are 
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of 
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried 
out only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a 
qualified workshop. regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at 
least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp 
goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a 
low additive level.
For more information on Checking levels
, 
refer to the corresponding section.
Unless otherwise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the manufacturer's 
service schedule for details of the 
replacement intervals for these 
components.
Oil filter
Replace the oil filter each time the 
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's 
service schedule for details of 
the replacement interval for this 
component.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any 
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the 
terminals are correctly tightened 
(versions without quick release terminals) and 
that the connections are clean.
For more information and the precautions to 
take before starting work on the 12 V batter y , 
refer to the corresponding section. Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty 
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. 
city driving), replace them twice as often if 
necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may 
have an adverse effect on the per formance 
of the air conditioning system and generate 
undesirable odours. The start of saturation of the particle 
filter is indicated by the temporary 
On a new vehicle, the first particle 
filter regeneration operations may be 
accompanied by a "burning" smell, 
which is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the 
vehicle at very low speed or at idle, 
you may, in exceptional circumstances, 
notice the emission of water vapour at 
the exhaust on acceleration. This does 
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle 
or the environment.

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.
Brake pads

of driving, particularly in the case 
of vehicles used in town, over short 
distances. It may be necessary to

disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.For more information on the Electric parking

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any 
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service 
schedule for the checking interval 
for this component.
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.
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.
