In order to regenerate the fi lter, you are
advised to drive, as soon as possible
when the traffi c conditions permit, at a
speed of 40 mph (60 km/h) or above
for at least fi ve minutes (until the warn-
ing light is switched off).
If the warning light remains on, contact
a PEUGEOT dealer.

SERVICE INDICATOR
This is a visual reminder of when the
next service is due. This service is to
be carried out according to the manu-
facturer’s servicing schedule. Service indicator zero reset
Your PEUGEOT dealer carries out this
operation after each service.
However, if you carry out the service
yourself, the reset procedure is as
follows:

 Switch off the ignition,

 Press and hold the trip recorder
reset button,

 Switch on the ignition.
The display begins a countdown.
When the display shows "=0" , release
the button; the spanner disappears .
Once an engine oil level indication has
been displayed, the display indicates
the total and trip distances.
If the service is overdue , each time the
ignition is switched on and for 5 seconds,
the distance and the spanner fl ash.

Example
: when the ignition is switched
on and for 5 seconds, the display
indicates that the service is overdue by
300 miles/km. The service should be
carried out very shortly.
Once the servicing and oil level infor-
mation has been displayed, the total
distance recorder resumes normal
operation and the spanner remains lit.
The point at which a service is due is
calculated using two parameters:
- the total distance travelled,
- the time elapsed since the last service.
The distance remaining may be weighted
by the time factor, depending on the
user’s driving habits.
Operation
As soon as the ignition is switched
on and for 5 seconds, the spanner
symbolising the service operations is
lit. The trip recorder display shows the
distance remaining (in round fi gures)
before the next service.

Example
: when switching on the
ignition and for 5 seconds, the dis-
play shows that 900 miles/km remain
before the next service is due.
After this operation, if you
wish to disconnect the battery,
lock the vehicle and wait for at
least fi ve minutes, otherwise
the zero reset will not be
registered.

Engine oil level indicator
When the ignition is switched on,
the engine oil level is indicated for
approximately 5 seconds, after the
service information. Dipstick
There are 2 level marks on
the dipstick: never exceed
level A .
In position B , top up the
level via the oil reservoir
cap, using the type of oil
suited to your engine.

A = max.

B = min. Trip recorder zero reset
Oil level correct
Lack of oil
Flashing indicates a lack of oil which
may damage the engine.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by
checking using the dipstick, it is impe-
rative that the level is topped up. Oil level gauge fault
(fl ashing segments)
Check the oil level using the dipstick.
If the level is correct, the fl ashing
indicates an engine oil level gauge
malfunction.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
The level observed on the dipstick is
only valid if the vehicle is parked on
level ground and the engine has been
off for more than 15 minutes. The total distance is displayed in
zone A of the display and the trip
distance in zone B .
Distance recorder
With the trip distance displayed, press
the button for a few seconds.

This summarises the active warning
messages, displaying them on the
multifunction display in succession.
Status of the functions
This summarises the active or inactive
status of the functions present on the

Distance remaining
(km or miles)
When guidance is not activated, this
enables you to enter an approximate
distance to be travelled.
This fi gure may increase if
there is a change in the style
of driving or the road surface,
producing a signifi cant drop in
current consumption.
When the range is less than 20 miles
(30 km), four segments are displayed.
After fi lling with fuel, the range is
displayed when it exceeds 62 miles
(100 km). If horizontal segments are dis-
played for long periods instead
of digits, contact a dealer.

This function is displayed only when
the vehicle is travelling at a speed
greater than 20 mph (30 km/h).
This is the distance remaining to
the destination, either calculated at
any time by the navigation system if
guidance is activated or entered by
the user, minus the distance covered
since the distance was entered.
If digits are missing, dashes are dis-
played in their place.
This is the average fuel consumption
since the computer was last set to zero.
This indicates the distance travelled
since the computer was last set to zero. Access via the general menu
This is the average speed calculated
since the computer was last set to
zero (with the ignition on).
