Fitting directly to the roof
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as
close as possible to the roof.
Lash the load securely.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds
and the stability of the vehicle may be
affected.
On a long journey, check the security of
the load at every stop.
Remove the roof bars once they are no
longer needed.Sunroof
Check that the load does not pass below
the roof bars so that it does not impede
the movements of the sunroof.
You must only attach the transverse bars to
the four fixing points located in the roof frame.
These points are concealed by the vehicle
doors when the doors are closed.
The roof bar fixings have a stud which must be
inserted into the opening of each fixing point. Maximum load distributed across the
transverse roof bars, for a load height not
exceeding 40
cm (except bicycle carrier):
80 kg
.
For more information, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars and
the vehicle's anchorage points.
For transporting objects which are longer
than the vehicle, refer to local legislation.
Bonnet
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid any risk of injury resulting from an
automatic change to START mode.
The location of the interior bonnet release
lever prevents opening of the bonnet when
the left-hand front door is shut.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the stay with
care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.

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
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emissions control system, never use
additives in the engine oil.
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 fluid
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the inter val for this operation.
Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up the fluid
between two services. A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
The coolant level should be close to the "MA X"
mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark,
it is essential to top up.
When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying out any
work.
To avoid the risk of scalding when you need to
top up in an emergency, place a cloth around
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up to the required level.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might
be caught by the fan blades.Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
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.
The check and top up must only be done with
the engine cold.
