INSTRUMENTS
AND CONTROLS
A permanently lit warning light
or one flashing, with the engine
running, indicates an operating
fault of the unit concerned. The
illumination of certain warning
lights may be accompanied by
an audible signal and a message
on the multifunction display. Do
not ignore this warning: consult
a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as
possible.
If the central STOP warning light
comes on when you are driving,
stop your vehicle immediately,
where it is safe to do so.
Anti-lock braking
system (ABS)
warning light
This comes on for 3 seconds each
time the ignition is switched on.
If the warning light remains on or
comes on above 8 mph (12 km/h),
this indicates an ABS malfunction.
However, the vehicle retains conventional servo-assisted braking.
Lighting of this warning light,
accompanied by an audible signal,
indicates an ABS fault.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

coolant level
warning light
Linked to the central (STOP) warning light.
You must stop.
Wait for the engine to cool before
topping up the level.
The cooling circuit is pressurised.
In the event of breakdown and to
prevent any risk of burns, 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.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
