Recommendations for approved lubricants The oils which appear in the table opposite are suitable for most pur-poses. The diagram opposite states the optimum range of viscosity depend-ing on the temperatures at which theoils 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/SJ qual-ity (for petrol engines), or CD/CFquality (for diesel engines) may beused by following the 'Arduous Con-ditions' servicing schedule, whichspecifies shorter service intervals. Do not hesitate to ask for advice from a Peugeot dealer to maintaindriving pleasure and to minimise themaintenance cost of your vehicle. For countries outside Europe, please
contact a local PEUGEOT dealer.
