MONITORING
Coolant temperature indicator
With the engine running, when the nee-
dle is:
- in zone A , the temperature is correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning
lamp 1 and the central STOP warning
lamp come on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen.
You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off
the engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop. After driving for a few minutes, the tem-
perature and pressure in the cooling
system increase.
To top up the level:
 wait for the engine to cool,
 unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop,
 when the pressure has dropped, remove the cap,
 top up the level to the "MAX" mark.

MONITORING
The level shown will only be cor-
rect if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for
more than 30 minutes.
Engine oil level indicator * Oil level correct
Oil level low Oil level indicator fault
In the event of a fault with the electric
indicator, the engine oil level is no lon-
ger monitored.
This is signalled by the fl ashing of "OIL" ,
or the display of a message "Oil level
incorrect" in the instrument panel, ac-
companied by illumination of the service
warning lamp and an audible signal.
If the low oil level is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, the level must
be topped up to prevent damage to the
engine.
Refer to the "Checks of levels" section. This is signalled by the fl ashing of
"OIL--"
or the display of a message "Oil level mea-
surement invalid" in the instrument panel
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
When the system has a fault, you
should check the engine oil level using
the manual dipstick (located under the
bonnet).
Refer to the "Checks of levels" section.
On versions fi tted with an electric oil
level indicator, the state of the engine
oil level is displayed in the instrument
panel for a few seconds when the ig-
nition is switched on, after the service
information.
* Depending on version.

MONITORING

Service indicator
This information is displayed for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched
on. It informs the driver when the next
service is due, in accordance 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 7 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the spanner symbolising the service
operations comes on. The instrument
panel central screen indicates the distance
remaining before the next service is due. Less than 600 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
Example: 500 miles (900 km) remain
before the next service is due.
For 7 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the central screen indicates:
The spanner remains on in the small
screen 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 in-
strument panel central screen.
Example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) re-
main before the next service is due.
For 7 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the central screen indicates:

MONITORING
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 registered.
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
".../000" button
on the right of the instrument panel,
 switch on the ignition; the distance recorder display begins a count-
down,
 when the instrument panel central screen indicates "=0" , release the
button; the spanner disappears from
the screen.
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, de-
pending on the type of motoring the
vehicle is used for.
Therefore, the spanner may also
come on if you have exceeded the
period since the last service speci-
fi ed in the warranty and mainte-
nance record.
Service overdue For 7 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
(300km).
For 7 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the central screen indicates:
The spanner remains on in the small
screen to indicate that a service should
have been carried out. Retrieving the service information

MONITORING

Trip computer, a few definitions
When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After fi ll-
ing with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed when it
exceeds 60 miles (100 km). If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop. This function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).
This value may vary following a
change in the style of driving or
the relief, resulting in a signifi cant
change in the current fuel con-
sumption. Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still
be travelled with the fuel re-
maining in the tank (related to the aver-
age fuel consumption over the last few
miles (kilometres) travelled). Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated over the last few
seconds.
Average fuel
consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated since the last trip
computer reset. Distance travelled
(miles or km)
Calculated since the last trip
computer reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
Calculated since the last trip
computer reset. Stop & Start time
counter
(minutes / seconds or hours /
minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop & Start,
a time counter calculates the time spent
in STOP mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition
is switched on with the key.
