Engine coolant temperature

With the engine running, when the needle or bar
graph (depending on version) is:

in zone
A, the engine coolant temperature is
correct,
–

in zone

too high; the maximum temperature and central
STOP warning lamps come on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a warning message.
You MUST stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off the
engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Checking
After driving for a few minutes, the temperature
and pressure in the cooling system increase.
To top up the level:
►

wait at least one hour for the engine to cool,
►


unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the
pressure to drop,
►


when the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap,
►


top up the level to the "MAX" 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).
Engine oil level indicator
On versions fitted with an electric oil gauge, the
state of the engine oil level is displayed on the
instrument panel for a few seconds when the
ignition is switched on, at the same time as the
servicing information.

Practical information

► Reinsert the dipstick and push fully down,
then pull it out again to visually check the oil
level: the correct level is between marks A (max)
and B (min).
Do not start the engine if the level is:
– above mark A: contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
– below mark B: top up the engine oil
immediately.
Oil grade
Before topping up or changing the engine
oil, check that the oil is suitable for the engine
and complies with the recommendations in
the service schedule supplied with the vehicle
(or available from your PEUGEOT dealer and
qualified workshops).
Use of non-recommended oil may invalidate
the contractual warranty in the event of
engine failure.
Topping up the engine oil level
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
► Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills
on engine components (risk of fire).
The locations of the following elements may

The Diesel fuel system operates under
very high pressure.
All work on this circuit must be carried out
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in
accordance with the manufacturer's service
schedule. Top them up if required, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The fluids must comply with the manufacturer's requirements and with
the vehicle's engine.
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).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers reserved
for this purpose at a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The level is checked, with the engine having been switched off for at least 30
minutes and on level ground, either using the oil
level indicator in the instrument panel when the
ignition is switched on (for vehicles equipped
with an electric gauge), or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
services (or oil changes). It is recommended
that you check the level, and top up if necessary,
every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emissions control system,
never use additives in the engine oil.
Checking using the dipstick
For the location of the dipstick, please refer
to the illustration of the corresponding engine
compartment.
►

Grasp the dipstick by its coloured grip and
pull it out completely

.
►

Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean,
lint-free cloth.

: top up the engine oil
immediately.
Oil grade
Before topping up or changing the engine
oil, check that the oil is suitable for the engine
and complies with the recommendations in
the service schedule supplied with the vehicle
(or available from your PEUGEOT dealer and
qualified workshops).
Use of non-recommended oil may invalidate
the contractual warranty in the event of
engine failure.
Topping up the engine oil level
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
►

Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills
on engine components (risk of fire).
► Wait a few minutes before checking the level
again using the dipstick.
►

Add more oil if necessary
.
►

After checking the level, carefully refit the oil
filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
During the 30 minutes after topping up
the oil, the check performed with the oil
level indicator in the instrument panel when
the ignition is switched on is not valid.
Brake fluid
The level of this fluid should be close to the "MAX" mark. If not, check the brake
pad wear.
To know how often the brake fluid should be
replaced, refer to the manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
If topping up, clean the cap before
replacing it. Use only DOT4 brake fluid
from a sealed canister.
Engine coolant
Check the engine coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up this fluid between
two services.
The check and top-up must only be done with
the engine cold.
A low level presents a risk of serious damage to
the engine. The level of this fluid should be close to the
"MAX" 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 this
fluid 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 if you need to top
up in an emergency, wrap 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.
Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when necessary.
Capacity of the tank:
–

5.3 litres for "very cold climate" versions.
–


2.2 litres for other versions.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a ready-to-use
mixture.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a liquid
containing an agent to prevent freezing must
be used which is appropriate for the prevailing
conditions, in order to protect the elements of the
system (pump, tank, ducts, jets, etc.).
