Instruments and controls
-
wait approximately 15 minutes to allow
the engine to cool down in order to check
the level and top it up if necessary. the
cooling system is pressurised. In order to
avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the
cap by two turns to allow the pressure to
drop.
When the pressure has dropped, check the
level and remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone, contact
a PEUGEOT or a qualified workshop.
Refer to the "Checks - levels" section.
FUEL GAUGE
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
EMISSION CONTROL
the fuel level is tested every time the
ignition is switched on.
If the gauge is positioned on:
The needle is positioned between c (cold)
and h (hot): normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations.
eOBD (european On Board Diagnosis) is a
diagnostics system which meets the exhaust
emissions standards for:
-
f (full): the capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 45 litres.
-
-
-
CO (carbon monoxide),
-
e (empty): the reserve is now being
used, the warning lamp comes on
continuously.
HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles detected
by oxygen sensors placed upstream and
downstream of the catalytic converters.
the low fuel warning first comes on when
approximately 6 litres of fuel is left.
If the needle enters the red zone, or
if the warning lamp comes on:
-
stop immediately, switch off the ignition.
the cooling fan may continue to operate
for a certain time up to approximately
10 minutes.
the driver is warned of any
fault with this emission control
system by flashing of this specific
warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
