With the engine running, when the needle or
bar graph (depending on version) is:
-
i
n zone A , the temperature of the engine
coolant is correct,
-
i

coolant is too high; the maximum
temperature and central STOP warning
lamps come on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a warning message.
You must stop the vehicle as soon as it is
safe to do so.
Checking
After driving for a few minutes, the temperature
and pressure in the cooling system increase.
To top up the level:
F
w
ait at least one hour for the engine to cool,
F
u
nscrew the cap by two turns to allow the
pressure to drop,
F
w
hen the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap,
F
t
op up the level to the "MA X" mark.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Be aware of the risk of scalding when
topping up the coolant. Do not fill above
the maximum level (indicated on the
reservoir).
Wait a few minutes before switching off the
engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and the
engine has been stopped for more than
30
minutes.
Oil level correct
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel.
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel.
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.
Engine oil level indicator
