If automatic application/release is no longer
possible:
►  Start the engine.
►  Use the control to apply the electric parking
brake.
►  Take your foot fully off the brake pedal.
►  Hold the control pressed in the release
direction for between 10 and 15 seconds.
►  Release the control.
►  Depress and hold the brake pedal.
►  Pull the control in the application direction for
2 seconds.

according to the distance covered and the
time elapsed since the last service.
The alert may also be triggered close to a due
date.
Service spannerOn temporarily when the ignition is
switched on.
Between 620 and 1,860 miles (1,000 and 3,000
km) remain before the next service is due.
Fixed, when the ignition is switched on.
The next service is due in less than 620
miles (1,000 km).
Have your vehicle serviced very soon.
Service spanner flashingFlashing then fixed, when the
ignition is switched on.
(With BlueHDi Diesel engines, associated with the
Service warning lamp.)
The servicing interval has been exceeded.
Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible.
Resetting the service indicator
The service indicator must be reset after each
service.
If you have serviced your vehicle yourself:
►  Switch the ignition off.




►  Press and hold the button located on the end
of the lighting control stalk.
►  Without pressing the brake pedal, press the
START/STOP button once; a temporary display
window appears and a countdown begins.
►  When the display indicates =0, a confirmation
message appears; release the lighting control
stalk button and the spanner symbol disappears.
If you disconnect the battery following
this operation, lock the vehicle and wait
at least 5 minutes for the reset to be
registered.
Reminder of the servicing information
Servicing information is accessible using
the Settings > Vehicle application on the
touch screen.
►  Then select Safety > Diagnostics.
Engine oil level indicator
(Depending on version)
On versions fitted with an electric gauge,
the engine oil level status is displayed on the
instrument panel for a few seconds when the
ignition is switched on, after the servicing
information, in the form of messages.
The level read will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30 minutes.
Low oil level
This is indicated by a message prompting you
to top up the level, accompanied by the lighting
of the Service warning lamp and an audible signal.
If a low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to avoid
damage to the engine.
For more information on Checking levels, refer to
the corresponding section.
Oil gauge malfunction
This is indicated by the message "Oil level
measurement invalid" on the instrument panel.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop.
In the event of a malfunction of the
electric gauge, the oil level is no longer
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located in the engine compartment.
For more information on Checking levels, refer
to the corresponding section.

Practical information07
Do not switch off the engine until the filter
is fully regenerated; repeated intervals
can degrade the engine oil prematurely.
Regenerating the filter while the vehicle is
stationary is not recommended.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you
may, in exceptional circumstances, notice
water vapour coming from the exhaust while
accelerating. These emissions have no impact
on the vehicle’s behaviour and the
environment.
New vehicle
During the first few particle filter
regeneration operations, you may notice a
"burning" smell. This is perfectly normal.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine
servicing. However, in the event of a
problem, do not hesitate to have the system
checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.
For more information on the Electric
parking brake, refer to the corresponding
section.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style of driving,
particularly in the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the
brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are
worn.
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in
wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may
be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and
defrost them.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc
wear, contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres,
including the spare wheel, must be
checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure label
are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for
more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles (10
kilometres) at over 31 mph (50 km/h), add 0.3 bar
(30 kPa) to the values indicated on the label.
Under-inflation increases energy
consumption. Non-compliant tyre
pressures cause tyres to wear prematurely and
have an adverse effect on the vehicle's road
holding - risk of accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the
braking and road holding performance of the
vehicle. Regularly check the condition of the tyres
(tread and sidewalls) and rims as well as the
presence of the valve caps.
When the wear indicators no longer appear set
back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is
less than 1.6 mm; replace the tyres as soon as
possible.
Using different size wheels and tyres from those
specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel
rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer
reading and have an adverse effect on road
holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Always mark the direction of rotation on the tyres
that will be stored when fitting winter or summer
tyres. Store them in a cool, dry place and away
from direct exposure to the sun's rays.
Winter or 4-seasons tyres can be identified
by this symbol on their sidewalls.
Shock absorbers
It is not easy for drivers to detect when
shock absorbers are worn. Nevertheless,
