REAR PARKING
ASSISTANCE
This system, installed in the rear
bumper, detects any obstacle (per-son, vehicle, tree, gate, kerb...)located behind the vehicle.
To activate With the engine running, the sys- tem is activated as soon asreverse gear is engaged; a bleepsounds to inform you that it isactive. The proximity information is given by an audible signal, con-sisting of bleeps which becomemore and more rapid as the vehi-cle approaches the obstacle. When the distance between the rear of the vehicle and the obsta-cle is less than approximatelytwenty-five centimetres, the signal becomes con-tinuous. The system ceas- es to be activewhen you changeto neutral. TYRE UNDER-INFLATION DETECTION Sensors check the tyre pressure during driving, and trigger a warn-ing if there is a malfunction (speedgreater than 15 mph (25 km/h).
Tyre under-inflation
When this warning light comes on, accompaniedby a bleep and the mes-sage 'Tyre(s) pressure
low', have the tyre pressure
checked as soon as possible. Puncture
Display of this warning light, accompanied by anaudible signal and themessage 'Punctured
tyre(s) detected', is fol-
lowed by illumination of the
STOP warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding allabrupt manoeuvres with thesteering wheel and the brakes. Change the damaged (punctured or very under-inflated) wheel andhave the tyre pressure checkedas soon as possible. Note: if the damaged wheel is
stored temporarily in the boot, it will again send this message as areminder of the necessity of hav-
ing it repaired. This will prevent asimilar warning being displayed. Sensor(s) not detected
Display of this warninglight, accompanied by anaudible signal and themessage 'X tyre pres-
sure sensor(s) missing', indi-
cates that one or more wheelsare not being detected.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to replace the faulty sensor(s).
Warning: this message is dis-
played when one of the wheels is at a distance from the vehicle(being repaired) or when a wheelwithout a sensor is fitted (winterfitting). This system does not eliminate the need to check the tyre
pressure regularly.

PEUGEOT SERVICING The maintenance cycle of your 607 is based on level A(including the replacement of the engine oil, the oil filter and a
set of checks) and level Cservices [service level A+ workshop operations carried out every 40,000 miles (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 607 is fitted with a service indica-
tor which programmes the intervals for the 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 elements:
¥ the number of engine revolutions,¥ the engine oil temperature,¥ prolonged periods of the vehicle not being used. Depending on these elements, the service indicator will suggest a time which is more or less the same as the initial plan.
Depending on the conditions of use, one or more level Aservices can be carried out between two level C services.
Depending on the mileage recorded, your dealer may offer to carry out the level Cservice to avoid the visits being too close
together.

The extension of the service intervals means that the engine oil level must be checked regularly: topping up of the oil between two oil changes is normal. It is for this reason that your PEUGEOT dealer will invite you to an intermediate visit between services. The date of
this visit is not shown by the service indicator. It is to be carried outbetween two services.
A Peugeot professional will carry out a quick check and will top up the levels if necessary (oil, coolant, screen wash up to 2 litres).
If the oil level is too low, there is a risk of significant damage to the engine: check the engine oil level at least every 3,000 miles (5 000 km). This maintenance frequency is the result of developments to our vehicles and to the lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU ONLY USE ENGINE LUBRICANTS THAT ARE APPROVED AND RECOMMENDED
BY THE MANUFACTURER (see pages on 'Lubricants').
