Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle filter)
Used products
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Fluid specication
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up with or
replaced with plain water.
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.
Top up the reservoir when you next stop
the vehicle.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
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.
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
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.
Fluid specication
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
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.
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.
Coolant level
The cooling fan may start after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might
become caught by the fan blades.
In wintry conditions, the use of an
ethyl alcohol or methanol base fluid is
recommended.
