PEUGEOT SERVICING
Your vehicle benefits from extended service intervals.
•For petrol engines: every 20,000 miles (30 000 km) or every two years.
• For direct injection diesel engines: every 12,000 miles (20 000 km) or every two years.
The extension of the service intervals means that the engi ne oil level must be checked regularly: topping up of the
oil between oil changes is normal.
It is for this reason, and for your complete peace of min d, that your Peugeot dealer will carry out a levels check and
topup midway between each routine service, at the time or distance intervals specified.
This will be undertaken free of charge, provided that the maintenance of your vehicle has been carried out within the
PEUGEOT network. At the same time, your Peugeot dealer will offer you a Peugeot safety check, for a nominal fee.
A Peugeot professional will carry out a quick check, and will top up the levels if necessary (oil up to 1 litre, coolant
and screen wash).
The date of the intermediate visit is not shown by the serv ice indicator.
It is to be carried out at least every 10,000 miles (15 0 00 km) for petrol engines and every 6,000 miles (10 000 km) for
direct injection diesel engines.
If the oil level is too low there is a risk of serious d amage to the engine: check the engine oil level at least every
2,000 miles (3 000 km) or 3,000 miles (5 000 km), depen ding on the conditions of use.
The extended service intervals have been made possible by technica l modifications to the vehicles and lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIALTO ONLY USE ENGINE LUBRICANTS WHICH ARE APPROVED AND REC OMMENDED BY THE
MANUFACTURER
