Recommendation 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 the
oils are to be used.
It is also possible to use synthetic
oils of 'superior quality'.
In the absence of semisynthetic or
synthetic oils, oils of API SH/SJ qual
ity (for petrol engines) or CD/CF
quality (for diesel engines) can be
used by following the 'Arduous con
ditions' servicing schedule, which
specifies shorter intervals.
Do not hesitate to ask for advice
from a PEUGEOT dealer to maintain
driving pleasure and to minimise the
maintenance cost of your vehicle.
For countries outside Europe, please
contact a local PEUGEOT dealer.

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS31
Coolant temperature warning light
This symbol is accompanied by an audible signal and the message
'Engine temperature too high'
on the multifunction display.
It is linked to the STOPwarning light. Stop immediately.
Warning: wait for the engine to cool.
If necessary, top up the level.
With the engine running and the vehicle moving
The instrument panel display temporarily shows:
– lights indicating warnings, when these occur,
– vehicle function status indicator lights, when a change occu rs.
Certain warning lights may be accompanied by an audib le signal and a
message on the multifunction display.
List of warning symbols MANUAL CHECK
(vehicle autotest)
 Press the "CHECK"button on
the instrument panel.
With the ignition key in the acces
sories position, with the ignition
switched on, with the engine running
or when the vehicle is moving, this
function informs you at all times of
the following: – any current warnings,
– the status of functions which it is possible to switch on or off (wind
screen wipers, automatic switch
ing on of lights, cruise control, dis
arming of passenger air bag, etc.).
The corresponding warning lights
are displayed in succession on the
instrument panel screen.
If a warning or a change of status
occurs during the CHECKmode, the
corresponding indicator lights will be
displayed at the end of this mode.
CHECK mode entry indi
cator light (vehicle
autotest)
This comes on when you
press the 'CHECK' button.
CHECK mode exit indica
tor light (vehicle autotest)
This comes on at the end of
the CHECK mode.
Engine oil pressure warning light
This symbol is accompanied by an audible signal and the message
'Insufficient engine oil pressure' or 'Engine oil pressure too low' on
the multifunction display.
It is linked to the STOPwarning light.
Stop immediately if this comes on when the engine is running.
If there is a lack of oil in the lubrication circuit, top up the level.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon as possible.
Puncture warning light
This symbol comes on accompanied by an audible signal and the me s
sage 'Punctured tyre(s) detected' on the multifunction display.
It is linked to the STOPwarning light. Stop immediately.
Change the damaged wheel.
Have it repaired by a PEUGEOT dealer.

STOP warning light
This comes on after the
engine oil pressure, coolant temperature orpuncture warning lights, to which it is linked.
Stop immediately. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Brake fluid level and brake force distribution fault warn ing light
This is linked to the light on the instrument panel.
Display of this warning light accompaned by an audible signa l and the message 'Brake fluid low'indicates an
excessive drop in the brake fluid level.
Display of this warning light, accompanied by an audible sig nal and the message 'Braking system faulty' on the multifunc
tion display indicates a malfunction of the brake force distrib ution system.
Stop immediately in both cases. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
Dynamic stability control (ESP/ASR) warning light

Coolant temperature indicator
When the needle is in
zone A, the
temperature is correct.
When the needle is in zone B, the
temperature is too high.
In cases where the coolant tem
perature warning light comes on
(linked to the STOPwarning light),
you must stop immediately.
Warning: wait for the engine to cool
down.
If necessary, top up the level.
Because the cooling system is pres
surised, to prevent the risk of scald
ing, turn the cap two turns to allow
the pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped,
remove the cap and top up the level.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer.Engine oil level and
temperature
When the ignition is switched on, this
gauge indicates the engine oil level
for approximately 20 seconds, then it
indicates the engine oil temperature.
Engine oil level
The reading is valid only if the vehi
cle is on level ground, and the
engine has been switched off for 10
minutes.
With the ignition on, wait for the
graduated sector to light up and the
indicator needle to move.
When the needle is in zone C, the oil
level is correct.
When the needle is in zone D, the oil
level is incorrect.
There is a risk of damage to the
engine.
 Check the level with the dipstick.
You must top up the level without
exceeding the maximum level on
the gauge.
Engine oil temperature
When the needle is in zone E, the
temperature is correct.
When the needle is in zone F, the
temperature is too high.
Reduce your speed to lower the
temperature.
Service indicator and total
distance recorder
When the ignition is switched on, this
indicates servicing information for a
few seconds, then the total and trip
distances.
Service function
See the 'Service indicator' section.
Total distance recorder function
The total distance is displayed on the
left side of the screen and the trip
distance on the right side.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
154
T
OWING A TRAILER,
CARAVAN, BOAT ETC...
Only use original PEUGEOTtow
bars which have been tested and
approved from the design stage of
your vehicle.
The tow bar must be fitted by a
PEUGEOTdealer.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads: distribute the
load in the trailer so that the heaviest
loads are as close as possible to the
axle and the nose weight is close to
the maximum authorised without,
however, exceeding it.
Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.
As the fan is electronically con
trolled, its cooling capacity is not
dependent on the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to
lower the engine speed, and reduce
your speed. In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.
Note:
in certain cases of particularly
arduous use (towing the maximum
load up a steep slope in high tem
peratures), the engine automatically
limits its power. In this case, cutting
off the air conditioning allows the
engine power to be recovered, and
therefore the towing speed to be sig
nificantly increased (approximately
12mph [20 km/h] more).
If the coolant temperature warning
light comes on, stop the vehicle and
switch off the engine as soon as pos
sible.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures of
the towing vehicle and of the trailer,
observing the recommended pres
sure.
Brakes: towing increases the brak
ing distance. Drive at a moderate
speed, change down early and brake
gradually.
Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased. Drive smoothly and at a
moderate speed. Lighting
Manual adjustment
Adjust your headlamps so as not to
dazzle other road users (see section
on ''Manual adjustment of head
lamps''). Check the electrical sig
nalling of the trailer.
Automatic beam correction
For vehicles with Xenon bulbs, this
system automatically corrects the
height of the beam, whatever the
load of the vehicle. The driver is then
assured of having optimum lighting
and not causing a nuisance to other
road users.
In cases of malfunction, the driver is
alerted by means of the warning light
on the instrument panel.
In this situation the system adjusts
your headlamps to the low position.
