RECOMMENDATIONS FORAPPROVED LUBRICANTSVI-8
108
The oils which appear in the table opposite are suitable for most pur-poses. The diagram opposite states the optimum range of viscosity depen-ding on the temperatures at whichthe oils are to be used. It is also possible to use synthetic oils of 'superior quality'. In the absence of semi-synthetic or
synthetic oils, oils of API SH/SJquality (for petrol engines), orCD/CF quality (for diesel engines)may be used by following the'Arduous Conditions' maintenanceschedule which specifies shorterintervals. Do not hesitate to ask for advice
from a PEUGEOT dealer to main-tain driving pleasure and to minimi-se the maintenance cost of yourvehicle. For countries outside Europe, please
contact a local PEUGEOT dealer.
