Instruments and controls


FUEL GAUGE

The fuel level is tested each time the key is
turned to the "running" position.
The gauge is positioned on:


- 1:
the fuel tank is full, approximately
80 litres.

- 0:
the reserve is now being used, the
warning light comes on continuously.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE

The needle is positioned before the red
zone:
normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations.
What you should do if the warning lamp
comes on:


- stop immediately, switch off the ignition.
The fan may continue to operate for
a certain time up to approximately
10 minutes,

- wait for the engine to cool down in order
to check the coolant level and top it up if
necessary.
Refer to the "Fuel" section of chapter 6.
What you should do if the needle enters
the red zone:
Reduce your speed or let the engine run at
idle. Refer to the "Levels" section of chapter 6.
The reserve when the warning first comes
on is approximately 8 litres. As the cooling system is pressurised, follow
this advice in order to avoid any risk of
scalding:


- wait at least one hour after switching off
the engine before carrying out any work,

- unscrew the cap by 1/4 turn to allow the
pressure to drop,

- when the pressure has dropped, check
the level on the expansion bottle,

- if necessary, remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone, have
the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.

Instruments and controls

After this operation, if you wish to
disconnect the battery, lock the vehicle
and wait for at least five minutes, otherwise
the zero re-set will not be registered.


Zero re-set

Your PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop carries out this operation after
each service.
However, if you carry out the service
yourself, the re-set procedure is as follows:


- switch off the ignition,

- press and hold the trip recorder reset
button,

- switch on the ignition.
The display begins a countdown.
When the display shows "=0"
, release the
button; the spanner disappears.

Engine oil level indicator

When the ignition is switched on, the engine
oil level is indicated for a few seconds, after
the service information.
Oil level correct

Lack of oil
Flashing of "OIL"
, linked
with the service warning
light, accompanied by
an audible signal and a
message on the display, indicates a lack of
oil which could damage the engine.
If the lack of oil is confirmed by a check
using the dipstick, it is essential that the
level is topped up.

Oil level gauge fault
Flashing of "OIL --"
indicates a malfunction
of the engine oil level
gauge. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
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.
Dipstick

A
= maximum, never exceed
this level as a surplus of oil may
damage the engine.
