MAINTENANCE OF YOUR 306

CHECKING THE LEVELS
Engine
Checking the oil level
Check the level regularly and top
up between changes (maximum
consumption is 0.5 litres per 600 miles
(1,000 km).
The oil level should be checked with
the vehicle level, engine cold.
There are two marks on the dipstick:
A = maximum.
B = minimum.
Oil change: according to the manu-
facturer’s servicing schedule.
– Dipstick. Never fill past the
maximum mark A.
– Oil level gauge on the instrument
panel.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require-
ments.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly in accor-
dance with the maintenance schedule.
Used oil
Prevent used oil from coming into pro-
longed contact with the skin.
Do not dispose of used oil into drains
or into the ground.
To maintain the reliability of engines
and emission control systems, the use
of additives in the engine oil is prohi-
bited.
Brake fluid reservoir
Checking the brake and clutch fluid
level :
– The level should always be above
the DANGER mark on the reser-
voir.
– If the level drops substantially,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer imme-
diately.
Fluid change
– must be carried out according to
the manufacturer’s schedule.
– use fluids approved by the manu-
facturer, which fulfil DOT4 stan-
dards.
Coolant reservoir
Use the fluid approved by the manu-
facturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan: because this fan
can operate with the ignition key
removed, and because the cooling
system is pressurised, wait for at least
one hour after the engine has stopped
before carrying out any work.
If necessary, in a breakdown, slacken
the cap to the first notch to release
the pressure to prevent any risk of
scalding. When the pressure has
dropped remove the cap and top up
the level.
