Oil filter
Unless otherwise indicated, check these components in accordance with the warranty and maintenance record and according to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
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.
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.

Refer to the warranty and maintenance record
for information on when the adjustment should
