Checks
CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Refer to the servicing booklet for
the replacement interval for these
components.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the
vehicle (urban driving...), change them
twice as often if necessary.
Oil filter
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
check the thickness of the pads, even
between services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit,
a drop in the brake fluid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
Change the filter regularly in
accordance with the servicing
schedule.
Carbon filter and passenger
compartment filter
An access flap below the glove box
permits replacement of the filters.
The carbon filter permits continuous
and effective filtering of dust.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
maintenance of the particle emission
filter must be carried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
If the passenger compartment filter
becomes blocked, this may reduce the
performance of the air conditioning
system and generate unpleasant
odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment filter. By
means of its second special active
filter, it contributes to the purification
of the air breathed by the occupants
and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake
disc / drum wear, consult a PEUGEOT
dealer.
On acceleration after the vehicle has
been running for a prolonged period
at very low speed or at idle, you may,
in exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust. This water vapour does not
have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
