24(1) Minimum quality standard: Petrol engines ACEA A3 and API SH/SJ; Diesel engines ACEA B3 and API CF/CD -
ACEA= Association des Constructeurs Européens Automobiles (Association of European Automobile Manufacturers).
API = American Petroleum Institute - If oil is used which does not conform to the ACEA A3-B3 standards, this requires the "ArduousConditions" servicing schedule to be followed, which involves shorter intervals between services.
*This Fuel Economy oil can only be used in engines designed for its use (from 2000 Model Year).Use only 5W40 oil for the 2.2 litre HDI engine.

Recommendations for approved lubricants The oils which appear in the table opposite are suitable for most pur-poses. The diagram opposite states the optimum range of viscosity depend-ing on the temperatures at which theoils are to be used. It is also possible to use synthetic oils of `superior quality'. In the absence of semi-synthetic or
synthetic oils, oils of API SH/SJ qual-ity (for petrol engines), or CD/CFquality (for diesel engines) may beused by following the 'Arduous Con-ditions' servicing schedule, whichspecifies shorter service intervals. Do not hesitate to ask for advice from a Peugeot dealer to maintaindriving pleasure and to minimise themaintenance cost of your vehicle. For countries outside Europe, please
contact a local PEUGEOT dealer.

WARNING LIGHTS AND INDICATORS
A permanently lit warning light, or flashing with the engine running, is an indication of a malfunction in the relevant unit. Some warning lights may
be linked to buzzers and a message on the multi–function display. Do notignore this warning: contact a PEUGEOT dealer as quickly as possible.
If the Central (STOP) warning light comes on when you are driving, stop your vehicle immediately where it is safe to do so.Central (STOP) warning light
Linked to the "engine oil pressure", ''the low brake fluid level'', '' the coolant temperature gauge'' and ''electronic brake force distribu-tion system fault'' warning lights. It comes on each time the igni-
tion is switched on.
Stop immediately if it flashes with the engine running.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil pressure warning light
Linked to the central (STOP) warning light.Stop immediately if it comes on with the engine running.
It indicates either:
– insufficient oil pressure,
– lack of oil in the lubrication circuit. Top up the oil level.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible. Low coolant level warning light
Stop immediately. Allow the engine to cool before top- ping up. The cooling system is pressurised.In case of overheating, to prevent the risk of scalding, turn the cap tothe first notch to allow the pressureto drop. Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up the level.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Fuel filler cap warning light This comes on if the fuel cap is not correctly screwed
on or is missing.

Handbrake, low brake fluid level and electronic brake force distribution warning light. This comes on each time the ignition is switched on.
It indicates either:
– that the handbrake is on or has not been released correctly,
and when coupled with the central (STOP) warning light:
– an excessive drop in the brake fluid level (if the light remains on even with the handbrake released),
– lit at the same time as the ABS warning light, a malfunction of the electronic brake force distribution system.

Clogging of the particulate emissionfilter warning light(diesel engine)
Display of this warning light is accompanied by an audible signal. The flashing of this light while the engine is running is caused either bythe particulate emission filter being
overloaded or by the engine runningtoo long at idle (white smoke at
exhaust). There is a risk of the filterclogging if the same conditions ofoperation are maintained. As soon as possible, drive for at least three minutes at a speedexceeding 37 m.p.h. (60 km/h), if dri-ving conditions allow this. If the light comes on, drive to a
PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possi-ble. Front brake pad wear warning light
