oil level Peugeot 607 Dag 2002 Owner's Manual

PEUGEOT SERVICING
The maintenance cycle of your 607 is based on level A(including the replacement of the engine oil, the oil fi lter and a
set of checks) and level Cservices [service level A+ workshop operations carried out every 40,000 miles (60 000 km)] in
accordance with the tables on the following pages.
So that the driving conditions and your style of driving may be taken into account, your 607 is fitted with a service indica
tor which programmes the intervals for the level A servic e:
• every 20,000 miles (30 000 km) maximum or 2 years for petrol engines,
• every 12,000 miles (20 000 km) maximum or 2 years for direct injection diesel engines,
The frequency of level Aservices specific to your vehicle will be determined by three elemen ts:
• the number of engine revolutions,
• the engine oil temperature,
• prolonged periods of the vehicle not being used.
Depending on these elements, the service indicator will suggest a time which is more or less the same as the initia l plan.
Depending on the conditions of use, one or more level Aservices can be carried out between two level C services.
Depending on the mileage recorded, your dealer may offer to ca rry out the level Cservice to avoid the visits being too close
together.

The extension of the service intervals means that the engine oil level must be checked regularly: topping up of the
oil between two oil changes is normal.
It is for this reason that your Peugeot dealer will invite you to an intermediate visit between services. The date o f
this visit is not shown by the service indicator.
It is to be carried out between two services.
A Peugeot professional will carry out a quick check and will top up the levels if necessary (oil, coolant, screen wash up to
2 litres).
If the oil level is too low, there is a risk of significa nt damage to the engine: check the engine oil level at le ast every
3,000 miles (5 000 km).
This maintenance frequency is the result of developments to our vehicles and to the lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU ONLY USE ENGINE LUBRICANTS THAT ARE APPROVED AND RECOMMENDED
BY THE MANUFACTURER (see pages on 'Lubricants').

THE SERVICE LEVELS
Each vehicle has its own servicing cycle, defined by th
e manufacturer in terms of its technical specification.
This cycle consists of alternating 2 types of service A and C, inte rmediate visits and a few additional operations specific to
your vehicle; these correspond to key stages in the life of your 6 07.
At your first and each subsequent service, your dealer will advise you of the type and content of the next service
due.

temperature
When the ignition is switched on, this
gauge indicates the engine oil level
for approximately 20 seconds, then it
indicates the engine oil temperature.
Engine oil level

cle is on level ground, and the
engine has been switched off for 10
minutes.
With the ignition on, wait for the
graduated sector to light up and the
indicator needle to move.
When the needle is in zone C, the oil
level is correct.
When the needle is in zone D, the oil
level is incorrect.
There is a risk of damage to the
engine.
 Check the level with the dipstick.
You must top up the level without
exceeding the maximum level on
the gauge.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. Maximum
consumption is 0.5 l per 600 miles
(1000 km).
Carry out this check with the
vehicle level, engine cold, using
the oil level gauge on the instru
ment panel or the dipstick.
Dipstick There are two marks
on the dipstick:
A= maximum
Never fill past this
mark.
B = minimum
To maintain the reliabi
lity of engines and
emission control sys
tems, the use of addi
tives in engine oil is
prohibited.
Oil change
According to the information given in
'PEUGEOT SERVICING'.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION 137
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require
ments.
Brake and clutch fluid level:
– The level must always be between
the DANGER and MAXIMUM
marks in the reservoir.
– If the level drops substantially, contact a PEUGEOT dealer imme
diately.
Fluid change:
– must be carried out according to the manufacturer's servicing schedule,
– use fluids approved by the manu facturer, which fulfil DOT4 stan
dards.
WARNING: brake and clutch fluid is
harmful to health and very corrosive.
Used oil
Prevent used oil from coming into
prolonged contact with the skin.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake and
clutch fluid or coolant into drains or
onto the ground. Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the engi
ne cold. The level should always
be above the MINI mark and close
to the MAXI mark.
Windscreen and headlamp
