Service indicator
System which informs the driver when
the next service is due, in accord-
ance with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last indicator zero
reset. It is determined by two param-
eters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time elapsed since the last service.
Between 600 miles (1 000 km) and
1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before
the next service is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the spanner symbolising the service
operations comes on. The distance re-
corder display line indicates the distance
remaining before the next service is due.

Example: 2 800 km remain before the
next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the spanner is switched off ; the
distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The display then indicates
the total and trip distances. Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain
before the next service is due

Example: 900 km remain before the
next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The spanner remains on to
indicate that a service must be carried out
soon.
More than 1 800 miles (3 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
When the ignition is switched on, no
service information appears on the dis-
play.

36
Following this operation, if you
wish to disconnect the battery,
lock the vehicle and wait at
least fi ve minutes for the zero reset
to be taken into account.
Service indicator zero reset
After each service, the service indicator
must be reset to zero.
The procedure for resetting to zero is as
follows:

 switch off the ignition,

 press and hold the trip distance re-
corder zero reset button,

 switch on the ignition; the distance
recorder display begins a count-
down,

 when the display indicates "=0" ,
release the button; the spanner
disappears.
The distance remaining may
be weighted by the time fac-
tor, depending on the driver's
driving habits.
Therefore, the spanner may also
come on if you have exceeded the
two year service interval.
Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on,
the spanner fl ashes to
indicate that the service must be carried
out as soon as possible.

Example: the service is overdue by
300 miles (km).
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the distance recorder resumes its
normal operation.
The spanner remains lit .
Retrieving the service information
You can access the service information
at any time.

 Press the trip distance recorder zero
reset button.
The service information is displayed for a few seconds, then disappears.

The level read will only be cor-
rect if the vehicle is on level
ground and the engine has been
off for more than 15 minutes.
Engine oil level indicator
System which informs the driver wheth-
er the engine oil level is correct or not. This information is indicated for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched
on, after the service information.
Oil level correct
Lack of oil Oil level indicator fault
Dipstick
This is indicated by the fl ashing of

"OIL" , linked with the service warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message on the multifunction
screen.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a check
using the dipstick, it is essential that the
level is topped up to prevent damage to
the engine. This is indicated by the fl ashing of

"OIL

--" . Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Refer to the "Checks" section to locate
the dipstick and the oil fi ller cap on your
engine. There are 2 marks on the
dipstick:
- A = max; never exceed
this level (risk of dama-
ge to the engine),
- B = min; top up the level
via the oil fi ller cap, using
the grade of oil suited to
your engine.

38
Total distance recorder
System which measures the total dis-
tance travelled by the vehicle during its
life.
Lighting rheostat
System for manual adjustment of the
brightness of the instrument panel in re-
lation to the exterior brightness.
The total and trip distances are dis-
played for thirty seconds when the ig-
nition is switched off, when the driver's
door is opened and when the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
Trip distance recorder
System which measures a distance
travelled during a day or other period
since it was reset to zero by the driver.
