Coolant level
The coolant level should be close
to the "MAX" mark but should never
exceed it.
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 coolant
The coolant does not have to be replaced at
routine services.
Fluid specication
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
The cooling fan may start after switching
off the engine: take care with articles and
clothing that might be caught by the fan
blades.
Fluid specication
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
In wintry conditions, it is recommended that you
use an ethyl alcohol or methanol based fluid.
Screenwash fluid level
Top up the level when necessary.
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle filter)
A low additive level is indicated by illumination
of the service warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible warning and a message in the
screen (if a display screen is fitted).
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.
