The Diesel circuit is under very high
pressure.
All work on this circuit must be carried out
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

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.
If you have to remove/refit the engine
cover, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the fixing clips.
Used products
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 and dispose of it in
the containers reserved for this purpose.
Engine oil level
Check this regularly and top up as
necessary between two oil changes
(the maximum consumption is 0.5 litres
for 620 miles (1,000 km)). Make the
check with the vehicle standing level,
engine cold, using the dipstick.
Checking using the dipstick
2 marks on the dipstick:
A = MAX
B = MIN
