REAR PARKING
ASSISTANCE
This system, installed in the rear
bumper, detects any obstacle (per-son, vehicle, tree, gate, kerb...)located behind the vehicle.
To activate With the engine running, the sys- tem is activated as soon asreverse gear is engaged; a bleepsounds to inform you that it isactive. The proximity information is given by an audible signal, con-sisting of bleeps which becomemore and more rapid as the vehi-cle approaches the obstacle. When the distance between the rear of the vehicle and the obsta-cle is less than approximatelytwenty-five centimetres, the signal becomes con-tinuous.  The system ceas- es to be activewhen you changeto neutral. TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION Sensors check the tyre pressure during driving, and trigger a warn-ing if there is a malfunction (speedgreater than 15 mph (25 km/h).
Tyre under-inflation
When this warning light comes on, accompaniedby a bleep and the mes-sage 'Tyre(s) pressure
low', have the tyre pressure
checked as soon as possible. Puncture
Display of this warning light, accompanied by anaudible signal and themessage 'Punctured
tyre(s) detected', is fol-
lowed by illumination of the
STOP warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding allabrupt manoeuvres with thesteering wheel and the brakes. Change the damaged (punctured or very under-inflated) wheel andhave the tyre pressure checkedas soon as possible. Note: if the damaged wheel is
stored temporarily in the boot, it will again send this message as areminder of the necessity of hav-
ing it repaired. This will prevent asimilar warning being displayed. Sensor(s) not detected
Display of this warninglight, accompanied by anaudible signal and themessage 'X tyre pres-
sure sensor(s) missing', indi-
cates that one or more wheelsare not being detected.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the faulty sensor(s).
Warning: this message is dis-
played when one of the wheels is at a distance from the vehicle(being repaired) or when a wheelwithout a sensor is fitted (winterfitting). This system does not eliminate the need to check the tyre
pressure regularly.

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 engine oil level must be checked regularly: topping up of the oil between oil changes is normal. It is for this reason that the PEUGEOT network invites you to an intermediate visit between regular services.
The date of this service is not shown by the service indicator. It is to be carried out at least every 10,000 miles
(15 000 km) for petrol engines and every 6,000 miles (10 000 km) for direct injection diesel engines. A Peugeot dealer will carry out a quick check, and will top up the levels if necessary (oil, coolant, screenwash up to 2 litres). If the oil level is too low there is a risk of serious damage to the engine: check the engine oil level at least every 2,000 miles (3 000 km) or 3,000 miles (5 000 km), depending on the conditions of use. The extended service intervals have been made possible by technical modifications to the vehicles and lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIALTO ONLY USE ENGINE LUBRICANTS WHICH ARE APPROVED AND RECOMMENDED BY THE
