Checking levels

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
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles so equipped, or
using the dipstick.

Checking using the dipstick

The location of the dipstick is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and

remove it completely.

F Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean

non-fluffy cloth.

F 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.

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.

A = MAX

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).

B = MIN

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.

Oil grade

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.

Topping-up the engine oil level

The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F unscrew the oil filler cap to reveal the filler

aperture.

F Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any

spills on engine components (risk of fire).

F Wait a few minutes before checking the

level again using the dipstick.

F Add more oil if necessary.
F After checking the level, carefully refit the

oil filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.

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.

Engine oil change

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 brake fluid level should be close
to the "MAX" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.

Brake fluid level

Changing the fluid

Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the interval for this operation.

Fluid specification

The brake fluid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.

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.

The cooling fan may start after switching
off the engine: take care with articles and
clothing that might be caught by the fan
blades.

When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.

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.
Topping-up the coolant between services is
normal.

Power steering
fluid level

The power steering fluid level should
be close to the "MAX" mark. With
the engine cold, unscrew the cap to
check the level.

Changing the coolant

The coolant does not have to be replaced at
routine services.

Fluid specification

The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.

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.

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.

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.

Used products

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 this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message in the instrument
panel screen.

Fluid specification

For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up with or
replaced with plain water.

Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid

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.

In wintry conditions, the use of an ethyl alcohol
or methanol base fluid is recommended.

Checks

12 V battery

The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check regularly that the terminals
are correctly tightened (versions without quick
release terminals) and that the connections
are clean.

Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.

Air filter and passenger compartment filter

Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.

Oil filter

Particle filter (Diesel)

The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the temporary
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message in the
multifunction screen.

As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a
speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this
indicates a low additive level.
For more information on Checking
levels
, refer to the corresponding
section.

on a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or the environment.

unless otherwise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's
service schedule and according to your engine.
otherwise, have them checked by a PeugeoT dealer or a qualified workshop.

For more information and the precautions to
take before starting work on the 12 V battery,
refer to the corresponding section.

Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often if
necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.

Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried
out only by a PeugeoT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Manual gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for the checking interval for
this component.

Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances.

Brake pads

For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PeugeoT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Brake disc wear

only use products recommended by
PeugeoT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as those in the
braking system, PeugeoT selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness,
or in wintry conditions, ice can form
on the brake discs and pads: braking
efficiency may be reduced. Make light
brake applications to dry and defrost
the brakes.

Parking brake

If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must be
checked, even between two services.

Checking this system must be done by a
PeugeoT dealer or a qualified workshop.

It may be necessary to have the condition of
the brakes checked, even between vehicle
services.
unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.

Automatic gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for the checking interval for
this component.

Electronic gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).

AdBlue

®

and SCR system

for BlueHDi Diesel engines

To assure respect for the environment and
conformity with the new euro 6 emissions
standard, without adversely affecting the
performance or fuel consumption of Diesel
engines, PeugeoT has taken the decision to
equip its vehicles with an effective system that
associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction)
with a particle filter (FAP) for the treatment of
exhaust gases.

Presentation of the SCR system

using a fluid called AdBlue

®

containing urea, a

catalytic converter turns up to 85% of nitrogen
oxides (Nox) into nitrogen and water, which are
harmless to health and the environment.

The AdBlue

®

is held in a special tank with

a capacity of about 22 litres: this provides
a driving range of about 12 500 miles
(20 000 km), after which an alert is triggered
warning you when the reserve remaining is
enough for just 1 500 miles (2 400 km).

During each scheduled service of your vehicle
by a PeugeoT dealer or a qualified workshop,
the AdBlue

®

tank is refilled in order to allow

normal operation of the SCR system.

once the AdBlue

®

tank is empty, a

system required by regulations prevents
starting of the engine.
If the SCR is faulty, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no
longer meet the euro 6 standard: your
vehicle becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault
with the SCR system, you must go
to a PeugeoT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible: after a
running distance of 650 miles
(1 100 km), a system will be triggered
automatically to prevent engine starting.

When filling the tank, the filling rate
must not exceed 40 litres per minute.

If the estimated mileage between two services
is greater than 12 500 miles (20 000 km), we
recommend that you go to a PeugeoT dealer
or a qualified workshop to have the necessary
top-up carried out.

Topping-up the AdBlue

®

Filling the AdBlue

®

tank is an operation

included in every routine service on your
vehicle by a PeugeoT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Nevertheless, given the capacity of the tank, it
may be necessary to top-up the fluid between
services, more particularly if an alert (warning
lamps and a message) signals the requirement.
You can go to a PeugeoT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself, please
read the following warnings carefully.

Precautions in use

Keep AdBlue

®

out of the reach of

children, in its original bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue

®

to another

container: it would lose its purity.

use only AdBlue

®

fluid that meets

the ISo 22241 standard.

Never dilute AdBlue

®

with water.

Never pour AdBlue

®

into the Diesel fuel

tank.

The supply in a non-drip bottle simplifies
topping-up. You can obtain 1.89 litre (half a
uS gallon) bottles from a PeugeoT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Never top-up from an AdBlue

®

dispenser reserved for heavy goods
vehicles.

AdBlue

®

is a urea-based solution. This liquid is

non-flammable, colourless and odourless (kept
in a cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash
the affected area with soap and water. In the
event of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate)
the eyes with large amounts of water or with
an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes.
If a burning sensation or irritation persists, get
medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high ambient
temperature, for example), the risk of release of
ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale the
fluid. Ammonia vapour has an irritant effect on
mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).

Important
If your vehicle's AdBlue

®

tank is

completely empty (which is confirmed
by the alert messages and the
impossibility of starting the engine)
you must add at least 3.8 litres
(so two 1.89 litre bottles).

Recommendations on storage

Never store bottles of AdBlue

®

in your

vehicle.

AdBlue

®

freezes at about -11°C and

deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended
that bottles be stored in a cool area and
protected from direct sunlight.
under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it
has completely thawed out.

Procedure

Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure
that the vehicle is parked on a flat and level
surface.

F Switch off the ignition and remove the

key, or if your vehicle has one, press the
START/SToP button to switch off the
engine.

Do not dispose of AdBlue

®

bottles in

the household waste. Place them in a
container provided for this purpose or
take them to your dealer.

In wintry conditions, ensure that
the temperature of the vehicle is
above -11°C. otherwise the AdBlue

®

may be frozen and so cannot be poured
into its tank. Park your vehicle in a
warmer area for a few hours to allow the
top-up to be carried out.

immediately with cold water or wipe with
a damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it
off using a sponge and hot water.

F Refit the blue cap to the tank and turn it a

6

th

of a turn clockwise, to its stop.

Important: when topping-up after
running out of additive
, signalled
by the message "Top up emissions
additive: Starting prevented", you
must wait for about 5 minutes before
switching on the ignition, without
opening the driver's door, unlocking
the vehicle, introducing the key
into the ignition switch, or placing
the key of the "Keyless Entry and
Starting" system inside the vehicle.
Switch on the ignition, then wait for
10 seconds before starting the engine.
