CHECKING THE LEVELS
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. Maximum
consumption is 0.5 l per 600 miles
(1000 km).
Carry out this check with the vehicle
level, engine cold, using the oil level
gauge on the instrument panel or the
dipstick.
Brake and clutch fluid level
The level must always be between the
DANGER and MAXIMUM marks in the
reservoir.
If the level drops substantially, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer immediately.
Used oil
Prevent used oil from coming
into prolonged contact with
the skin.
Brake and clutch fluid is harmful to
health and very corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake and
clutch fluid or coolant into drains or
onto the ground.
Fluid change:
- must be carried out according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
- use fluids recommended by the man-
ufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 stand-
ards.
Dipstick
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A = maximum
Never fill past this mark.
B = minimum
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil is
prohibited.
Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the engine
cold at ambient temperature. The
level should always be above the
MINI mark and close to the MAXI
mark.
Windscreen and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we advise that you use prod-
ucts recommended by PEUGEOT
(reservoir capacity 4 litres or 6.5 litres
with headlamp wash).
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer's requirements.
