PEUGEOT & TOTAL,

A PARTNERSHIP TO DELIVER

BETTER PERFORMANCE!

2015 was marked by PEUGEOT's return to Rally-Raid,

one of the most difficult motorsport disciplines in the

world. To obtain the best performance in these trials,

PEUGEOT Sport chose TOTAL QUARTZ for the

PEUGEOT 2008 DKR, a lubricant of high technology

which protects the engine in the most severe conditions.

TOTAL QUARTZ protects your engine against the

effects of time.

TOTAL QUARTZ Ineo First is a high performance

lubricant, the result of work done together by PEUGEOT

and TOTAL R&D. Specially formulated for the engines

in PEUGEOT vehicles, its innovative technology

significantly reduces CO₂emissions and keeps your

engine clean.

Practical information

Opening

Bonnet

F

open the door.

Before doing anything under the

bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start

system to avoid any risk of injury

resulting from an automatic change to

START mode.

F

Pull the release lever, located at the bottom

of the door aperture, towards you.

Lift the safety catch, then raise the bonnet.

Do not open the bonnet under very

windy conditions.

When the engine is hot, handle the

exterior safety catch and the stay with

care (risk of burns).

To avoid damaging electrical units,

it is strictly forbidden to use a high

pressure jet wash under the bonnet.

F

unclip the stay from its housing and place

it in the support slot to hold the bonnet

open.

The cooling fan may start after

switching off the engine: take care

with articles and clothing that might

be caught by the fan blades.

7

Closing

F

Take the stay out of its support slot.

Clip the stay back into its housing.

Lower the bonnet and release it at the end

of its travel.

F

Pull on the bonnet to check that it has

latched correctly.

Practical information

Checking levels

Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless otherwise indicated.

If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PeugeoT dealer or a qualified workshop.

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).

Engine oil level

The check is carried out either when

panel for vehicles so equipped, or

F

Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and

remove it completely.

Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean

non-fluffy cloth.

Refit the dipstick and push fully down, then

pull it out again to make the visual check:

the correct level is between the marks A

and B.

A = MAX

B = MIN

using the dipstick.

To ensure that the reading is correct, your

vehicle must be parked on a level surface

with the engine having been off for more than

30 minutes.

It is normal to top-up the oil level between

two services (or oil changes). PeugeoT

recommends that you check the level, and top-

up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).

7

If you find that the level is above the A mark or

below the B mark, do not start the engine.

-

If the level is above the MAX mark (risk

of damage to the engine), contact a

PeugeoT dealer or a qualified workshop.

If the level is below the MIN mark, you

must top-up the engine oil.

Practical information

Oil grade

Engine oil change

Coolant level

Before topping-up the oil or changing the oil,

check that the oil is the correct grade for your

engine and conforms to the manufacturer's

recommendations.

Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule

for details of the interval for this operation.

In order to maintain the reliability of the engine

and emission control system, never use

additives in the engine oil.

The coolant level should be close

to the "MAX" mark but should never

exceed it.

When the engine is warm, the temperature of

the coolant is regulated by the fan.

Topping-up the engine oil level

The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the

corresponding underbonnet layout view.

Brake fluid level

The cooling fan may start after switching

off the engine: take care with articles and

clothing that might be caught by the fan

blades.

The brake fluid level should be close

to the "MAX" mark. If it is not, check

the brake pad wear.

F

unscrew the oil filler cap to reveal the filler

aperture.

Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any

spills on engine components (risk of fire).

Wait a few minutes before checking the

level again using the dipstick.

In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised,

wait at least one hour after switching off the

engine before carrying out any work.

To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap

by two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When

the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and

top up the level.

Changing the ﬂuid

Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule

for details of the interval for this operation.

F

Add more oil if necessary.

After checking the level, carefully refit the

oil filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.

Fluid speciﬁcation

The brake fluid must conform to the

manufacturer's recommendations.

Check the coolant level regularly, according

to the use made of your vehicle (every

3 000 miles or 5 000 kms / 3 months); if

necessary, top-up using coolant recommended

by the manufacturer.

Power steering

fluid level

After topping-up the oil, the check when

switching on the ignition with the oil

level indicator in the instrument panel

is not valid during the 30 minutes after

topping up.

The power steering fluid level should

be close to the "MAX" mark. With

the engine cold, unscrew the cap to

check the level.

Topping-up the coolant between services is

normal.

274

Practical information

Screenwash and headlamp

wash fluid

Diesel additive level

The check and top-up must be done

with the engine cold.

A low coolant level presents the risk of

serious damage to your engine.

(Diesel engine with

particle filter)

In the case of vehicles fitted with

headlamp washers, the low fluid level

is indicated by an audible signal and

a message in the instrument panel

screen.

A low additive level is indicated by

illumination of this warning lamp,

accompanied by an audible warning

and a message in the instrument

panel screen.

Top up the reservoir when you next

stop the vehicle.

If the ambient temperature is high, it

is recommended that the engine be

allowed to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after

the vehicle comes to a stop, to facilitate

its cooling.

Topping-up

Fluid speciﬁcation

This additive must be topped-up by a

PeugeoT dealer or a qualified workshop

without delay.

For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,

this fluid must not be topped up with or

replaced with plain water.

In wintry conditions, the use of an ethyl alcohol

or methanol base fluid is recommended.

Used products

Changing the coolant

The coolant does not have to be replaced at

routine services.

Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or

fluids with the skin.

Most of these fluids are harmful to

health or indeed very corrosive.

7

Fluid speciﬁcation

The coolant must conform to the

manufacturer's recommendations.

Do not discard used oil or fluids into

sewers or onto the ground.

Take used oil to a PeugeoT dealer or

a qualified workshop (France) or to an

authorised waste disposal site.
