Safety
General safety
recommendations
Do not remove the labels attached in
different places on your vehicle. They
include safety warnings as well as
identification information for the vehicle.
For all work on your vehicle, use a
qualified workshop that has the technical
information, skills and equipment required, all
of which a PEUGEOT dealer is able to
provide.
Depending on country regulations,
certain safety equipment may be
mandatory: high visibility safety vests,
warning triangles, breathalysers, spare bulbs,
spare fuses, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, mud
flaps at the rear of the vehicle, etc.
Installing electrical accessories:
– The fitting of electrical equipment or
accessories not approved by PEUGEOT
may
cause excessive current consumption and
faults and failures with the electrical system
of your vehicle. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer
for information on the range of approved
accessories.
–

As a safety measure, access to the
diagnostic socket, used for the vehicle's
electronic systems, is reserved strictly for
PEUGEOT dealers or qualified workshops,
equipped with the special tools required (risk
of malfunctions of the vehicle's electronic
systems that could cause breakdowns or
serious accidents). The Manufacturer cannot
be held responsible if this advice is not
followed.
–

Any modification or adaptation not intended
or authorised by PEUGEOT

or carried out
without meeting the technical requirements
defined by the Manufacturer will result in the
suspension of the commercial warranty.
Installation of accessory radio
communication transmitters
Before installing a radio communication
transmitter with an external aerial, you must
without fail contact a PEUGEOT dealer for
the specification of transmitters which can
be fitted (frequency, maximum power, aerial
position, specific installation requirements),
in line with the Vehicle Electromagnetic
Compatibility Directive (2004/104/EC).
Declarations of conformity for radio
equipment
The relevant certificates are available on the
http://public.servicebox.peugeot.com/APddb/
website.

Practical information
On the outside

► Push the lever located above the grille
upwards and lift the bonnet.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
When the engine is hot, handle the lever and
the stay with care (risk of burns).


► Unclip the stay and rotate it to insert it into
the first slot and then into the second slot.
Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is
recommended that exposure to water (rain,
washing, etc.) be limited.
Closing the bonnet
► Before closing the bonnet, replace the stay in
its housing.
►

Lower the bonnet and release it near the end
of its travel. Check the bonnet is locked.

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).
If the engine cover is to be removed /
refitted, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the mounting clips.
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, 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.


► 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

11 0
Practical information
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

► Remove the dipstick before topping up.
► Recover the oil filler neck.
►

Unscrew the filler cap.
►


Install the oil filler neck in the filler hole.
►


T
op up with oil.
►

Remove the oil filler neck from the filler hole.
►


Replace the filler cap.
► Replace the dipstick.
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.
Power steering fluid
The level of this fluid should be close to the "MAX" mark. Check it, with the
vehicle parked on level ground and with the
engine cold, by reading the level on the filler
neck.
Unscrew the cap secured to the dipstick. To
access the reservoir cap, remove the protective
cover by turning its three fixing screws a quarter
turn, then remove the second cover placed on
the cap.
Engine coolant
(Diesel)
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 level of coolant that is too low risks causing
major damage to the engine; the coolant level
must be close to the "MAX" mark without ever
going above it.
If the level is close to or below the "
MIN" mark, it
is essential to top it up.
When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the fan.
As the cooling system is pressurised, wait at
least one hour after switching off the engine
before carrying out any work.


To gain access to the reservoir cap, remove the
protective cover by turning its three fixing screws
a quarter of a turn.
In order 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.
