be carried out according to the man-
ufacturer's servicing schedule.5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance re-
corder resumes normal operation
and the display shows the total or trip
distances.
The distance remaining before
the next service is less than

500 miles (1,000 km).
Example: 400 miles (900 km) remain
before the next service is due.
When switching on the ignition and
for 5 seconds, the display shows:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance re-
corder resumes normal operation
and the spanner remains lit.
This indicates that a service should
be carried out shortly. The display
shows the total or trip distances. The service is overdue.
Each time the ignition is switched on
and for 5 seconds, the spanner and

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 en
-
gine has been off for more than
15 minutes.

VENTILATION
1. Windscreen de-icing or
demisting vents.
2. Front door windows
de-icing or demisting
vents.
3. Side vents.
4. Centre vents.
5. Air outlet to front
footwells.
6. Air outlet to rear footwells
(with automatic air
conditioning only). Advice on operation and
notes
Place the air low control at a level
suficient to ensure an adequate re
-
newal of air in the passenger com-
partment.
When the air low control is in the
OFF position (system switched off),
temperature-related comfort is no
longer guaranteed. However, a slight
low of air, due to the movement of
the vehicle, can still be felt.
Select the air distribution which is
most suited to your requirements and
the weather conditions.
Change the temperature setting pro-
gressively for greater comfort.
Place the air intake control in the
"Exterior air" position, this facilitates
demisting.
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a long period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.
To obtain a perfectly uniform distribu-
tion of air, do not cover the exterior
air intake grille, the vents, the air pas-
sages and the air outlets in the foot-
wells. In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (towing the maximum load
on a steep gradient in a high temper-
ature), cutting off the air conditioning
permits recovery of the engine power
and, therefore improvement of the
towing capacity.
Ensure that the passenger com-
partment ilter, located by the wind
-
screen, under the bonnet, is in good
condition. Have the ilter elements
replaced regularly. If you drive in a
dusty environment, change them
twice as often.
The air conditioning system does not
contain chlorine and does not present
any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month to keep it in perfect working
order.
The water formed by the condensa-
tion of the air conditioning system is
discharged via an opening provided
for this purpose. Therefore, a pud-
dle may form underneath the vehicle
when stationary.
If the system does not produce
cold air, do not use it and contact a
PEUGEOT dealer.
