Recommendations for approved lubricants
The oils which appear in the tableopposite are suitable for most purposes. The diagram opposite states the optimum range of viscosity depen-ding on the temperatures at which theoils are to be used. It is also possible to use synthetic oils of Ôsuperior qualityÕ. In the absence of semi-synthetic or
synthetic oils, oils of API SH/SJquality (for petrol engines), or CD/CF(for diesel engines) may be used byfollowing the ÔArduous ConditionsÕmaintenance schedule which speci-fies shorter intervals. Do not hesitate to ask for advice from
a PEUGEOT dealer to maintaindriving pleasure and to minimise themaintenance cost of your vehicle. For countries outside Europe, please
contact a local PEUGEOT dealer.

sporty manner, it may be necessaryto check the thickness of the padseven between services. Manual gearbox This does not need an oil change. Check the level according to the
manufacturerÕs service schedule. Autoadaptive automatic gearbox This does not need an oil change: have the level checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer according to the
manufacturerÕs service schedule.
