PEUGEOT SERVICING
Your vehicle benefits from extended service intervals, every 20,000 miles (30,000 km) or every two years. The extension of the service intervals means that the engine oil level must be checked regularly: topping up of the oil between oil changes is normal.
It is for this reason that the PEUGEOT network invites you to an intermediate visit between each regular Service. The service indicator does not show when this service is due. It must be carried out every 10,000 miles (15,000 km) maximum.
A PEUGEOT dealer 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 serious damage to the engine: check the engine oil level at least every 2,000 to 3,000 miles (3,000 to 5,000 km), depending on the conditions of use. This extended servicing has been made possible by modifications to our vehicles and to the lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIAL TO ONLY USE LUBRICANTS WHICH ARE SUITED TO YOUR ENGINE AND RECOMMENDED
BY THE MANUFACTURER (see "Lubricants" pages).

INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS

Instrument panel display After switching on the ignition, three functions are shown in succession:- service indicator (see corresponding section),
- engine oil level indicator,- total distance recorder (total or trip distances).Note:
the total or trip distances are displayed for 30 seconds when the ignition
is switched off, on opening the driver's door, as well as on locking and unlocking the vehicle. Engine oil level When the ignition is switched on, the engine oil level is indicated for approximate- ly 10 seconds, after the servicing information.
Maximum oil level If the flashing of the six squares is confirmed by checking using the dipstick, a surplus of oilcan cause damage to the engine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer without delay. Lack of oil Flashing of the six segments and "min" on the display indicate a lack of oil which can causedamage to the engine. If the lack of oil is confirmed by checking using the dipstick, it is essential to top up the level. Oil level gauge fault Flashing of the six segments indicates a fault in the oil level gauge. There is a risk the engine will be damaged.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Engine oil temperature indicator light When the engine is running, it indi- cates the oil temperature:
- When the needle is in zone
(C),
the temperature is correct,
- When the needle is in zone (D),
the temperature is too high. To lower the oil temperature, reduceyour speed.
The level indicated when checking using the dipstick is only correct ifthe vehicle has been on level ground, with the engine stopped, for morethan 10 minutes.

CHECKING THE LEVELS Oil level 
Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. The maxi-mum consumption is 0.5 l per 600miles (1000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle level,engine cold, using the oil level gaugeon the instrument panel or the dips-tick.
Dipstick There are two marks on the dipstick: A= maximum
Never fill past this mark. B = minimum
To maintain the reliabi- lity of engines andemission control sys-tems, the use of addi-tives in engine oil isprohibited.
Oil change According to the information given in
"PEUGEOT SERVICING" .
Note: avoid used oil coming into
prolonged contact with the skin. Viscosity selection In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer's require-ments. Brake fluid level:
- The level must always be bet-
ween the DANGER and MAXI-
MUM marks in the reservoir.
- If the level drops substantially, contact a PEUGEOT dealer
immediately.
Fluid change:
- must be carried out according to the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
- use fluids recommended by the manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4standards.
Note: brake fluid is harmful to heal-
th and very corrosive. Avoid allcontact with the skin. Cooling systemUse the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer. When the engine is warm, the temperature of the coolant is
controlled by the engine fan. As thisfan can operate with the ignition keyremoved and because the coolingsystem is pressurised, wait for atleast one hour after the engine hasstopped before carrying out anywork. 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.

your safety, we would advise thatyou use products recommended by

CHECKS Battery
At the start of winter, have your bat-
tery checked by a PEUGEOT dea-
ler. Air filter and passenger compartment filter Have the filter elements replaced
regularly.
If you drive in dusty
conditions, change them twice asoften. Brake pads Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular forvehicles which are used in town,over short distances. It may be necessary to check the thickness of the pads, even betweenservices. Handbrake Where the handbrake travel is too great or there is a reduction in theperformance of the system, thehandbrake should be adjusted, evenbetween services. Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Manual gearbox This does not need an oil change. Check the level, according to themanufacturer's servicing schedule. Automatic gearbox This does not need an oil change. Have the level checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer, according to themanufacturer's servicing schedule. Oil filter
Change the filter regularly, in accor- dance with the servicing schedule.Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT.
To ensure best performance fromcomponents as important as thepower steering and the brakingsystem, PEUGEOT selects andoffers quite specific products.
