Checking levels
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. Check all of these levels regularly and top them up if necessary, unless otherwise indicated.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns).
