hicle is moving, the lighting of one of the
following warning lamps indicates the
occurrence of a fault requiring interven-
tion on the part of the driver.

Central alert.
Lighting is associated with
the displaying of another
warning lamp:


- punctured wheel,

- braking,

- power steering,

- engine oil pressure,

- coolant temperature,
stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so.

Service.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a problem in one
of the systems which does not
have a specifi c warning lamp.
To identify the problem, consult the
message on the multifunction screen.
Braking.
If this comes on, it indicates the
occurrence of a fault in one of
the braking systems:


- signifi cant drop in the brake fl uid
level,

- electronic brake force distribution
(EBFD) faulty (simultaneous
lighting of the ABS warning lamp),
stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so.
When the vehicle is moving, check that
the parking brake is fully released. Any fault resulting in the displaying
of a warning lamp must be investi-
gated further by reading the associ-

the vehicle is started.
Unless the system has been deactivat-
ed, if this warning lamp and the indicator
lamp on the button come on continuously,
this indicates the occurrence of a fault in
the ESP/ASR system or in the hill start

Engine oil level indicator

System which informs the driver whether
the engine oil level is correct or not. This information is indicated for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched
on, after the service information.

Oil level correct

Lack of oil
Oil level indicator fault

Dipstick
This is indicated by the fl ashing of "OIL"
,
linked with the service warning lamp, ac-
companied by an audible signal and a
message on the multifunction screen.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a check

"OIL



--"
. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Refer to the "Checks" section to locate
the dipstick and the oil fi ller cap on your

damage to the engine),

- B
= min; top up the level
via the oil fi ller cap,
using the grade of oil
suited to your engine.
