F Check the coolant level and top it up if necessary.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
During operations in this compartment,
you must obser ve the safety instructions
provided on the labels.
Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with
the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them
up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
Before topping up, make sure that the
fluid conforms to the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Never work in the compartments while
the "Ready" lamp is on or your vehicle is
charging.
When working in the front and rear
compartments, be careful because some
areas of the compartments may be
extremely hot (risk of burns): wait at least
one hour after switching off the vehicle
or until the end of the charging process
before any such work.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used fluids
with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used fluids into sewers or
onto the ground.
Take used fluids to a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop and dispose
of them in containers provided for this
purpose.

w e a r.
Heating system fluid level
The fluid level should be between the marks "L"
(MIN) and "F" (MA X).
Changing the fluid

Rear compartment
Coolant level
The level of this fluid must be
between the "L" (MIN) and "F"
(MA X) marks.
As the cooling system is pressurised, wait at
least one hour after switching off the motor
before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of burns, unscrew the cap by
two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.
Changing the fluid
This fluid does not need to be changed.
Checks
Passenger compartment filter
Depending on the environment
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving),
replace it 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.
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.
Ancillaries battery electrolyte
level
To check this level, you must remove the
battery cover.
For more information on the ancillaries
battery , refer to the corresponding section.
The level of this fluid must be between the
"LOWER LEVEL" (MIN) and "UPPER LEVEL"
(MA X) marks.
If necessary, top up with distilled water by
removing the plugs from the battery’s different
compartments.
Check the electrolyte level at least once
a month. Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear
For information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
