Engine oil quality
These warning lamps light up and a message is displayed at each
start: the system has detected a deterioration of
the engine oil.
It is essential to change the oil as soon as
possible. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Driving
Do not exceed the maximum towable
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower
air density at high altitudes decreases engine
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight (at the point where it
joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer , observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer
and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
If a genuine PEUGEOT towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the audible
signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant
temperature to increase. The maximum towable
load depends on the gradient and the exterior
temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not
increase with engine speed.
►
Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to
limit the amount of heating produced.
►
Pay constant attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle
and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Using the engine brake is recommended to limit
the overheating of the brakes. Braking distances
are increased when towing a trailer.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more
susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys contain a code, which must be
recognised by the vehicle before starting is
possible.
If the system malfunctions, indicated by the
display of a message, the engine will not start.

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, 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.
In extremely cold conditions, we
recommend replacing your engine's oil
with an oil with a more appropriate viscosity
which will help improve engine starting.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to find out which type of oil is suited
to your vehicle's engine.
Oil grade
Before topping up or changing the
engine oil, check that the oil is suitable
for your engine and complies with the
recommendations in the service schedule
supplied with the vehicle (or available
from your PEUGEOT dealer or qualified
workshop).
Use of non-recommended oil may invalidate
your warranty in the event of engine failure.
Topping up the engine oil level
For the location of the engine oil filler cap, please
refer to the corresponding engine compartment
illustration.
Never remove the oil filler cap with the
engine running. Risk of burns and
splashes inside the engine compartment.
►
Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills
on engine components (risk of fire).
►

Brake fluid
The level of this fluid should be close to
the "MAX" mark. If not, check the brake
pads for wear.
To know how often the brake fluid should be
replaced, refer to the manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
Clean the cap before removing it to refill.
Use only DOT4 brake fluid from a sealed
container.
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.
Engine coolant
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 topping up with a cold engine, start the
engine and slowly add coolant until it reaches
the "MAX" mark.
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.
In order to avoid the risk of scalding if you need
to top up in an emergency, wrap a cloth around CarM an uals 2 .c o m

allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap
and top up to the required level.
Filling up with engine coolant
Do this when the engine coolant reservoir is
empty or when the cooling system has been
drained.
►
Open the cap on the reservoir and top up
until the level reaches the " MAX
" mark.
►
Replace the cap on the engine coolant
reservoir
.
►
Increase engine speed to 2,000 rpm until the
radiator's intake hose becomes hot.
►
Allow the engine to cool and add coolant until
the level reaches the " MAX
" mark.
►
Do this repeatedly until the level in the
reservoir no longer drops.
We recommend using a coolant that
contains a glycol-based long-life
anti-freeze agent.
Never use water to fill or top up the
coolant system - risk of freezing and
damaging the engine!
Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when necessary.
Tank capacity: 3 litres.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a pre-mixed
product.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid
containing an anti-freeze agent which is
appropriate for the temperature conditions
must be used in order to protect the system's
components (pump, tank, ducts, jets).
Filling with pure water is prohibited in all
circumstances (risk of freezing,
limescale, etc.).
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
An alert is triggered when the reserve level is
reached.
For more information on the Indicators and in
particular the AdBlue range indicators, refer to
the corresponding section.
To avoid the vehicle being immobilised in
accordance with regulations, you must top up the
AdBlue tank.

after addition. It may take a few minutes of
driving before the top-up detection is effective.
Maintenance
For more information on the Engine
compartment, in particular the location of the
components under the bonnet, refer to the
corresponding section.
For the maintenance of your vehicle, you can
also contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Vehicle maintenance must always be
carried out with the engine switched off
and the ignition off.
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).
Wait at least one hour after switching off the
engine before working on the vehicle - risk of
burns!
Take care with objects or clothing that could
be caught in the blades of the cooling fan -
risk of strangulation!
Always wear gloves, protective glasses and
suitable clothing to avoid direct contact with
liquids against the skin or eyes.
In the event of contact with the skin, wash
the affected area thoroughly with soap and
running water.
In the event of contact with the eyes,
immediately rinse the eyes with large
amounts of water or with an eye wash
solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical
attention if you feel a persistent burning
sensation or irritation.
Never go underneath the vehicle raised
using a jack; always use an axle
stand-type support.
When working on the vehicle's electrical
system, take care not to cause a short circuit -
risk of burns and fire.
Flammable products and all sources of heat
(sparks, for example) must be kept away from
the battery, the fuel tank and all components
of the fuel system.
Never run the engine in a closed space
without sufficient ventilation; always use a
ventilation system such as an exhaust gas
extractor, for example.
Never leave liquids (oil, coolant) unattended.
Keep these liquids out of the reach of children
and animals.
The liquids and components replaced must have the same characteristics and
comply with the manufacturer's
recommendations.
