gauge assembly and check the level.
Use brake fluid recommended by the
manufacturer, meeting the DOT4

Practical information

Operation
This filter, fitted in the exhaust system,
accumulates particles of soot. The engine
management unit controls the automatic
periodic elimination of the soot particles
(regeneration).
The regeneration procedure is triggered
depending on the amount of particles
accumulated and the vehicle use conditions.
During this phase, you may notice some
unusual phenomena – increased idling speed,
cooling fan running, increase in smoke and
higher exhaust gas temperature – which does
not affect the operation of the vehicle or the
environment.After prolonged idling or driving at very
low speeds, you may occasionally notice
water vapour being emitted from the
exhaust when accelerating. This is of no
consequence to the running of the vehicle
or to the environment. Because of the higher exhaust gas
temperature resulting from the normal
operation of the particle filter, it is
recommended that you do not park the
vehicle over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.) so as to
avoid any risk of fire.
Saturation/Regeneration
If there is risk of blockage of the
filter, this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel.
This alert tells you that the particle filter is
starting to saturate (in conditions of urban
driving of exceptionally long duration: low
speeds, traffic jams, etc.).
To regenerate the filter, it is advised to drive
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions
and the law permit, at a
speed of at least
37

mph (60 km/h), with an engine speed above
2,000

rpm for about fifteen minutes (until the
warning lamp and/or the message disappears).
If possible, avoid switching off the engine
before the end of the filter regeneration;
repeated interruptions could cause premature
deterioration of the engine oil. It is not
recommended to end regeneration of the filter
with the vehicle stationary.
Malfunction
If this alert persists, do not ignore the warning;
it indicates that a fault has occurred in the
exhaust system/particle filter assembly.
Have the whole system checked by
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
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.
If this warning lamp comes on, have
the brake pad wear checked by
a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Practical information

Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
e ffectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a
PEUGEOT
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Diesel fuel filter
The Diesel fuel filter is located under the
bonnet, close to the brake fluid reser voir. If this warning lamp comes on, the
filter must be purged to remove
water.
You can also purge the fuel filter
regularly, every time the engine oil
is changed.
Purging water from the filterThe HDi engines use advanced technology.
All work must be done by personnel that
have had special training, which can be
ensured by going to 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
components 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.
