Minimum Check the level with the dipstick and
top it up. The figure shown is onlycorrect if the vehicle has been onlevel ground, with the engine stop-ped, for 10 minutes. Minimum oil level gauge fault Flashing of the segments indicates a fault in the oil level gauge or a lack ofoil. There is a risk the engine will be dama- ged.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer. Maximum oil level gauge fault Flashing of the squares indicates a fault in the oil level gauge or a surplus of oil. There is a risk the engine will be dama- ged.

service indicator (see correspon- ding section),
- engine oil level indicator,
- total distance recorder (total andtrip distances).
Engine oil level indicator When the ignition is switched on, the engine oil level is indicated for a fewseconds, after the servicing informa-tion. Maximum Check the level using the dipstick to confirm whether the display is correct;a surplus of oil can cause damage tothe engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer without
delay. T
rip recorder zero reset
With the ignition on, press the but-ton. Excessive oil level Check the level using the dipstick to confirm whether the display is correct, asurplus of oil can cause damage to theengine.

CHECKING THE LEVELS Oil level ☞ Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. The maxi-mum consumption is 0.5 l per1000 km. Check the level with the vehicle level, engine cold, using the dips-tick.
Dipstick
There are two marks onthe dipstick: A= maximum.
Never fill past this mark.B = minimum.
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission control systems, the useof additives in engine oilis prohibited.
Oil change According to the information given in
"PEUGEOT SERVICING" .
W ARNING: avoid used oil from
coming into prolonged contact withthe skin.
V iscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer's require-ments. Brake fluid level: - the level must always be between the MINIMUM and MAXIMUM
marks in the reservoir.
- if the level drops substantially,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer imme-
diately.
Fluid change: - must be carried out according to the manufacturer's servicing sche-dule.
- use fluids approved by the manu-
facturer, which fulfil DOT4 stan-dards.
W ARNING: brake fluid is harmful to
health and very corrosive. Avoid allcontact with the skin. Cooling system Use the fluid approved by the manu-
facturer. When the engine is warm, the tem- perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan canoperate with the ignition key remo-ved and because the cooling systemis pressurised, wait for at least onehour after the engine has stoppedbefore carrying out any work. Slacken the cap to the first notch torelease the pressure to prevent anyrisk of scalding. When the pressurehas dropped, remove the cap andtop up the level. Note:
the coolant does not need to
be changed. Used oil Do not dispose of used oil, brake fluid or coolant into drains or into theground. Power steering reservoir ☞ Open the reservoir, with the engi-
ne at ambient temperature. Thelevel should always be above theMIN. mark and close to the MAX.mark.
W indscreen and headlamp
wash reservoir For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we recommend that you useproducts approved by PEUGEOT(7.5 litres with headlamp wash).
