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.
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 span-
ner fl ash.

Example: when the ignition is switched
on and for 5 seconds, the display in-
dicates 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 op-
eration 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, depend-
ing on the user’s driving habits.
Engine oil temperature indicator
When the ignition is switched on or
while the vehicle is moving, this indi-
cates the engine oil temperature.
When the needle is in zone C , the
temperature is correct.
When the needle is in zone D , the
temperature is too high.
Reduce your speed to lower the tem-
perature. Operation
As soon as the ignition is switched on
and for 5 seconds, the spanner sym-
bolising 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 ig-
nition and for 5 seconds, the display
shows that 900 miles/km remain be-
fore the next service is due.

Service indicator zero re-set
Your PEUGEOT dealer carries out this
operation after each service.
However, if you carry out the service your-
self, the re-set procedure is as follows:

 Switch off the ignition,

 Press and hold the trip recorder
re-set button,

 Switch on the ignition.
The display begins a countdown.
When the display shows "=0" , release
the button; the spanner disappears.
Engine oil level indicator
When the ignition is switched on, the
engine oil level is indicated for approx-
imately 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.
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 check-
ing using the dipstick, it is imperative
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 indi-
cates an engine oil level gauge mal-
function.
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.
After this operation, if you wish
to disconnect the battery, lock
the vehicle and wait for at least
fi ve minutes, otherwise the
zero re-set will not be registered.
