Resetting the service indicator
Your PEUGEOT dealer carries out
this operation after each service.
The reset procedure is as follows:
- Switch off the ignition.
- Press and hold button 1.
- Switch on the ignition.
The display begins a 10 second
countdown
- Keep button 1 pressed for
10 seconds.
The display shows [= 0] and the
spanner disappears. Engine oil level indicator
When the ignition is switched on,
the engine oil level is indicated for
approximately 10 seconds, after the
service information.
Oil level gauge fault
Flashing of the six segments indi-
cates a malfunction of the oil level
gauge.
There is a risk of damage to the en-
gine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Surplus of oil
Flashing of the six squares and dis-
playing of "max" indicate a surplus of
oil which could damage the engine.
If the surplus of oil is conirmed by
a check using the dipstick, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer without delay.
Lack of oil
Flashing of the six segments and dis-
playing of "min" indicate a lack of oil
which could damage the engine.
If the lack of oil is conirmed by a
check using the dipstick, it is essen -
tial that the level is topped up. The level read on the gauge will
only be correct if the vehicle is
on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 15 mi-
nutes.

CHECKS
Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT
or products of equivalent
quality and speciications.
To ensure best perfor-
mance from components as im-
portant as the power steering and
the braking system, PEUGEOT
selects and offers quite speciic
products.
To prevent damage to the electri-
cal units, avoid washing the en -
gine.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
(DIESEL)
If you should run out of fuel, it is neces -
sary to re-prime the circuit:
- ill the fuel tank with at least ive litres of diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual re-priming pump, until fuel
appears in the transparent pipe
under the bonnet,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to check the
thickness of the pads, even between
services.
Disc wear status
For any information relating to check-
ing the disc wear status, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer. Oil filter
Change the ilter regularly, in accor-
dance with the servicing schedule.
Air filter and passenger

ularly. If you drive in dusty condi-
tions, change them twice as often.

schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corre-
spond to your vehicle's engine.
