Instrument panel display After switching on the ignition, three functions are shown in succession:
Ð service indicator (see corresponding section),
Ð engine oil level indicator, Ð total distance recorder/total and trip distances.Note:
the total and trip distances are displayed for 30 seconds when the ignition
is switched off, on opening the driver's door, as well as on locking and unlocking the vehicle. Engine oil level When the ignition is switched on, the engine oil level is indicated for approximate- ly 10 seconds, after the servicing information.
Maximum Check the level using the dipstick to confirm whe- ther the message is correct; a surplus of oil cancause damage to the engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without delay. Minimum.
Check the level with the dipstick and top it up. The figu- re shown is only correct if the vehicle has been onstable, level ground, with the engine stopped, for 10minutes. Oil level gauge fault The 6 segments flash; they indicate a fault in the oil level gauge. There is a risk the engine will be damaged.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil temperature indicator light When the engine is running, it indicates the oil temperature:
- When the needle is in zone
C, the
temperature is correct,
- When the needle is in zone D, the
temperature is too high. To lower the oil temperature, reduce yourspeed.

Checking levels Engine Oil level Carry out this check regularly and top up between oil changes
(the
maximum consumption is 0.5 litre per
600 miles (1000 km)). The check mustbe carried out with the vehicle leveland the engine cold.
There are two levelmarks on the dips-tick: A= maximum.
B = minimum. Viscosity grade selectionThe oil selected must always meet the
manufacturerÕs requirements. Oil filter Change the cartridge regularly in accordance with the recommenda-tions of the servicing schedule. Used oil
Avoid any prolonged contact of used oil with the skin. Do not discard used oil down drains or on the ground.
To maintain the reliability of the engines and emission control sys-tems, the use of additives in the oil isprohibited. Brake fluid reservoir
- The level must always be above the
DANGER mark on the tank.
- In the event of a significant drop in the level, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
immediately. Fluid change
- Always to be carried out at the inter-
vals given in the manufacturer's ser- vicing schedule.
- Use fluids approved by the manu- facturer which comply with DOT4.
Coolant reservoir Use a coolant approved by the manu-
facturer. When the engine is warm, the coolant temperature is controlled by the engi-
ne fan. As this fan can operate with theignition key removed and because thecooling circuit is pressurised, wait at
least an hour after switching off theengine before carrying out any work. In the event of a breakdown and to avoid any risk of burns, unscrew thecap two turns to let the pressure drop.When the pressure has dropped,remove the cap and top up the level.
Oil change: in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
- Dipstick: never exceed the maxi- mum mark A.
- Instrument dial gauge.

Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the engine
cold. The level should always beabove the MINI mark, close to theMAXI mark.
Windscreen and headlamp wash reservoir* For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we recommend that you useproducts approved by PEUGEOT(capacity 2.8 litres or 6.6 litres withheadlamp wash). Battery
At the start of winter, have your batte-
ry checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Air filter Regular replacement of the filter ele- ment is essential.
If you drive in very
dusty conditions, change it twice asoften. Brake pads Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicleswhich are used in town, for short jour-neys. It may be necessary to checkthe thickness of the pads even bet-ween services.
* According to specification. Manual gearbox This does not need an oil change. Check the level according to themanufacturer's servicing schedule. Autoadaptive automatic gearbox This does not need an oil change: have the level checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer according to themanufacturer's servicing schedule.Only use products appro-
ved by Automobiles
PEUGEOT.

ce from components as important as the power steering and the bra-king system, PEUGEOTselects and offers quite specificproducts.
