PEUGEOT SERVICING
Your vehicle benefits from extended service intervals, every 20,000 miles (30,000 km) or every two years. The extension of the service intervals means that the engine oil level must be checked regularly: topping up of the oil between oil changes is normal.
It is for this reason that the PEUGEOT network invites you to an intermediate visit between each regular Service. The service indicator does not show when this service is due. It must be carried out every 10,000 miles (15,000 km) maximum.
A PEUGEOT dealer will carry out a quick check, and will top up the levels if necessary (oil, coolant, screen-wash up to 2 litres). If the oil level is too low there is a risk of serious damage to the engine: check the engine oil level at least every 2,000 to 3,000 miles (3,000 to 5,000 km), depending on the conditions of use. This extended servicing has been made possible by modifications to our vehicles and to the lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIAL TO ONLY USE ENGINE LUBRICANTS WHICH ARE APPROVED AND RECOMMENDED BY THE
MANUFACTURER.

Instrument panel display After switching on the ignition, three functions are shown in succession:
Ð service indicator (see corresponding section),
Ð engine oil level indicator,Ð total distance recorder/total and trip distances.Note:
the total and trip distances are displayed for 30 seconds when the ignition
is switched off, on opening the driver's door, as well as on locking and unlocking the vehicle. Engine oil level When the ignition is switched on, the engine oil level is indicated for approximately 10 seconds, after the servicing information.
Maximum Check the level using the dipstick to confirm whether the level indicated is correct; a surplusof oil can cause damage to the engine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer without delay. Minimum Check the level with the dipstick and top it up. The level indicated is only correct if the vehiclehas been on stable, level ground, with theengine stopped, for 10 minutes. Oil level gauge fault The 6 segments flash to indicate a fault in the oil level gauge. There is a risk the engine will be damaged.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil temperature indicator light When the engine is running, it indi- cates the oil temperature:
Ð When the needle is in zone
(C), the
temperature is correct,
Ð When the needle is in zone (D), the
temperature is too high. To lower the oil temperature, reduce yourspeed.

CHECKING LEVELS Engine Oil level check Carry out this check regularly and top up between oil changes
(the
maximum consumption is 0,5 litre per1,000 km). The check must be carried out with the vehicle level and the engine cold.
There are two levelmarks on the dipstick: A= maximum.
B = minimum. Viscosity grade selectionThe oil selected must always meet the
manufacturerÕs requirements. Oil filter Change the cartridge regularly in accordance with the recommenda-tions of the servicing schedule. Used oil
Avoid any prolonged contact of used oil with the skin. Do not discard used oil down drains or on the ground.
To maintain the reliability of the engines and emission control sys-tems, the use of additives in the oil isprohibited. Brake fluid reservoir
Ð The level must always be above the
DANGER mark on the tank.
Ð In the event of a significant drop in the level, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
immediately. Fluid change
Ð Always to be carried out at the inter-
vals given in the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Ð Use fluids approved by the manu- facturer which comply with DOT4standard.
Coolant reservoir Use a coolant approved by the manu-
facturer. When the engine is warm, the coolant temperature is controlled by the
engine fan. As this fan can operatewith the ignition key removed andbecause the cooling circuit is pres-surised, wait at least an hour after
switching off the engine before carry-ing out any work. In the event of a breakdown and to avoid any risk of burns, unscrew thecap two turns to let the pressure drop.When the pressure has dropped,remove the cap and top up the level.
Oil change: in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Ð Dipstick: never exceed the maximum mark A.
Ð Instrument panel gauge.

checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Air filter Regular replacement of the filter ele- ment is essential. If you drive in verydusty conditions, change it twice asoften. Brake pads Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehiclesused in town, for short journeys. It maybe necessary to check the thicknessof the pads even between services. Manual gearbox This does not need an oil change. Check the level according to the man-ufacturer's servicing schedule. Autoadaptive automatic gearbox This does not need an oil change: have the level checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer according to themanufacturer's servicing schedule.Only use products
