2002.5 Peugeot 307 Break oil level

09-09-2002
PEUGEOT SERVICING
The maintenance cycle of your 307 is based on level A(including the replacement of the engine oil, the oil fi lter and a set
of checks) and level Cservices [ level Aservice + workshop operations carried out every 60 000 km] in accordance with the
tables on the following pages.
So that the driving conditions and your style of driving may be taken into account, your 307 is fitted with a service indicator
which modulates the intervals for level A service:
• every 20,000 miles (30 000 km) maximum or 2 years for petrol engines,
• every 12,000 miles (20 000 km) maximum or 2 years for direct injection diesel engines,
The frequency of level Aservices specific to your vehicle will be determined by three paramet ers:
• the number of engine revolutions,
• the engine oil temperature,
• periods when the vehicle is not in use.
Depending on these three elements, the service indicator will suggest a service interval which is more or less the same
as the initial programme. Depending on the conditions of u se, one or more level Aservices may be carried out between
two level C services.
Depending on the distance recorded, your dealer may offer to ca rry out the level Cservice to avoid the visits being too close
together.

The extension of the service intervals means that the engine oil must be checked regularly: topping up of the oil
between two oil changes is normal.
It is for this reason, and for your complete peace of min d, that your Peugeot dealer will carry out a levels check and
topup midway between routine services, at the time or dis tance intervals specified.
This will be undertaken free of charge, provided that the maintenance of your vehicle has been carried out within
the PEUGEOT network.
At the same time, your Peugeot dealer will offer you a Peug eot safety check, for a nominal fee.
A Peugeot professional will carry out a quick check, and will top up the levels if necessary (oil up to 1 litre, coolant
and screen wash).
The date of this visit is not shown by the service indica tor.
It is to be carried out between two services .
If the oil level is too low, there is a risk of significa nt damage to the engine: check the engine oil level at le ast every
3,000 miles (5 000 km).
The extended service intervals have been made possible by develop ments to our vehicles and to the lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU USE ONLY ENGINE LUBRICANTS THAT ARE APPROVED AND RECOMMENDED BY
THE MANUFACTURER (see pages on 'Lubricants').

THE SERVICE LEVELS
Each vehicle has its own servicing cycle, based upon the engine type.
This cycle consists of alternating 2 types of service, A and C, int ermediate visits and a few additional operations specific to
your vehicle; these correspond to key stages in the life of your 3 07.
At your first and each subsequent service, your dealer will advise you of the type and content of the next service
due.

This warning light is accompanied by an audible signal and the message "Top up
coolant " on the multifunction display.
Stop immediately. Central STOP warning light
This light comes on each time the ignition is switched on.
It is linked to the "engine oil pressure", ''oil temperature''
, ''coolant
level low'', ''brake fluid level'', "electronic brake force dist ribution
fault' and ''coolant temperature gauge'' warning lights.
The STOP warning light flashes if one of the doors or the boot is o pen. A diagram appears
on the multifunction display for a few seconds, accompanied by an audible signal.
In this case, it is not essential to stop if this is a delib erate action on the part of
the driver (e.g. transportation of long objects).
Stop immediately if it comes on permanently with the engine running.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil pressure warning light
Linked to the central STOPwarning light.
If it comes on with the engine running, it is accompanied b y an audible
signal and the message ''Oil pressure low''or ''Top up engine oil'' on
the multifunction display.
Stop immediately.
If there is a lack of oil in the lubrication circuit, top up the level.

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
A permanently lit warning light or one that flashes with the engine running,
indicates an operating fault in the relevant unit. Some war ning lights may
be linked to buzzers and a message on the multifunction di splay. Do not
ignore this warning: contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as p ossible.
If the Central STOP warning light comes on when you are d riving, stop
immediately where it is safe to do so. Warning:
Allow the engine to cool
before topping up.
The cooling system is pressurised.
To prevent the risk of scalding,
unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap and top up the level.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.

fluid level warning light
Linked to the central STOP
warning light.
This comes on each time the ignition is
switched on.
Illumination of this light is accompa
nied by an audible signal and a
message on the multifunction display
indicating the cause of the warning: ''Handbrake on'', if the handbrake
is applied or has not been released
correctly,
''Low brake fluid level'' if there is
an excessive drop in the brake fluid
(if the light remains on even with the
handbrake released),
''Brake system problem'' is dis
played simultaneously with the ABS
