Peugeot 508 Hybrid Dag (2012.5). Instruction - part 15

223

Checks

Coolant level

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.

Changing the coolant

The coolant does not have to be changed.

Fluid specifi cation

The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.

Fluid specifi cation

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.

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

224

Checks

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

emission filter)

A low additive level is indicated by illumination
of the service warning lamp, accompanied
by an audible warning and a message in the
instrument panel screen.

225

Checks

12 V battery

The battery does not require any

maintenance.

However, check that the terminals

are clean and correctly tightened,

particularly in summer and winter.

Refer to the servicing booklet 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 servicing booklet for
details of the replacement interval
for this component.

Oil filter

The presence of this label, in particular with
the Stop & Start system, indicates the use of
a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
technology and specification. The involvement
of a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
is essential when replacing or disconnecting
the battery.

Particle emission 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 multi-function 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.

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 servicing booklet and according to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

When carrying out work on the battery, refer
to the "12 V battery" section for details of the
precautions to be taken before disconnecting
the battery and following its reconnection.

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.

226

Checks

Manual gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing booklet for
the details of the level checking
interval for this component.

6-speed electronic gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing booklet for
details of the checking interval for
this component.

Automatic gearbox

The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing booklet for
details of the level 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. 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.

Brake pads

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

Brake disc wear

Electric parking brake

This system does not require any
routine servicing. However, in
the event of a problem, have the
system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and offers
very specific products.
To avoid damaging the electrical units,
the use of a high pressure washer
in the engine compartment is strictly
prohibited.

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.

For more information, refer to the "Electric
parking brake - Operating faults" section.

Technical data

* The kerb weight is equal to the unladen weight + driver (75 kg).
** The weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GVW of the towing vehicle is reduced by an equal amount; warning,

towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.

Petrol weights and towed loads (in kg)

The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for
each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the performance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient temperature is above 37 °C,
limit the towed load.

Identifi cation markings

Various visible markings for the identification and tracing of your vehicle.

A. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)

under the bonnet.

This number is engraved on the bodywork
near the damper support.

The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres are cold, at least once
a month.

Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.

B. Vehicle identification Number (VIN) on

the windscreen lower crossmember.

This number is indicated on a self-

adhesive label which is visible through the
windscreen.

C. Manufacturer's label.

The VIN is indicated on a self-destroying
label affixed to the door aperture, on the
driver's side.

D. Tyre/paint label.

This label is fitted to the middle pillar, on
the driver's side.

It bears the following information:
- the

tyre inflation pressures with and without

load,

the tyre sizes,

the brands of tyre recommended by the
manufacturer,

the inflation pressure of the spare wheel,

the paint colour code.
