If this warning light comes on, with
the engine running, it indicates one
of the following:
- i n s u f fi c i e n t o i l p r e s s u r e ,
- a lack of oil in the lubrication circuit. Top up the level,
- an oil temperature which is too high. The warning light is accom-
panied by an audible signal. To

signal and a message on the multifunc-
tion display, it indicates the occurrence of
a problem in one of the systems which
d o e s n o t h a v e a s p e c i fi c w a r n i n g l i g h t .
Consult the message on the multi-
function display to identify the system
concerned.
Check:

- the pressure of the tyres,
- the engine oil level,
- the screenwash level,
- the condition of the bulbs.
For all other cases, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
The lighting of this warning light may
also indicate the start of saturation of
t h e p a r t i c l e e m i s s i o n fi l t e r ( D i e s e l ) ,

L a c k o f o i l
If "OIL" fl a s h e s a n d t h e s e r v i c e w a r n -
ing light comes on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message on
the multifunction display, this indicates
a lack of oil which could damage the
engine.
I f t h e l a c k o f o i l i s c o n fi r m e d b y a
check using the dipstick, it is essential
that the level is topped up.
E n g i n e o i l l e v e l i n d i c a t o r
When the ignition is switched on, the
engine oil level is indicated for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after the service indi-
cator display.
O i l l e v e l g a u g e f a u l t
Check the oil level using the dipstick.
If "OIL --" fl a s h e s , t h i s i n d i c a t e s a
malfunction of the engine oil level
gauge.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAY
After switching on the ignition, three
functions are shown in succession:
- service indicator,
- engine oil level indicator
- total distance recorder (total and trip distances).
The level read on the dipstick
will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off
for more than 15 minutes.
O i l l e v e l c o r r e c t
N o t e : the trip distance is displayed
for thirty seconds, when the ignition is
switched off, on opening and closing
the driver's door as well as on locking
the vehicle.
It also displays the "2 Tronic" gear-
box positions and operating modes
selected, as well as the information
relating to the cruise control or speed
limiter when one of these functions is
active.

VENTILATION
1. Windscreen de-icing or
demisting vent.
2. Side window de-icing or
demisting vents.
3. Side vents.
4. Central vents.
5. Air outlets to the front footwells.
6. Air outlets to the rear footwells.
7. Temperature sensor. Recommendations for use
If the interior temperature remains
very high following a long period
parked in the sun, do not hesitate to
ventilate the passenger compartment
for a few minutes.
For an even air distribution, make
sure that you do not block the out-
side air inlet grille, the vents and the
air outlets to the footwells.
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load on a
steep gradient in a high temperature),
cutting off the air conditioning permits
recovery of the engine power and
therefore improvement of the towing
capacity.
Ensure that the passenger compart-
m e n t fi l t e r , l o c a t e d u n d e r n e a t h t h e
windscreen, in the engine compart-
ment, is in good condition. Have the
fi l t e r e l e m e n t s r e p l a c e d r e g u l a r l y ( r e f e r
to the chapter "Checks - § Checks").
If you drive in a dusty environment,
change them twice as often. We recommend the use of a com-
b i n e d p a s s e n g e r c o m p a r t m e n t fi l t e r . B y
m e a n s o f i t s s e c o n d s p e c i a l a c t i v e fi l t e r ,
i t c o n t r i b u t e s t o t h e p u r i fi c a t i o n o f t h e a i r
breathed by the occupants and to the
cleanness of the passenger compart-
ment (reduction of allergic symptoms,
unpleasant odours and oily deposits).
Operate the air conditioning system
for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a
month, to keep it in perfect working
order.
To guarantee correct operation of
your air conditioning system, we also
recommend that you have it checked
regularly.
The condensation created by the air
c o n d i t i o n i n g r e s u l t s i n a fl o w o f w a t e r
underneath the vehicle when stationary
which is perfectly normal.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer.
Do not cover the temperature sen-
sor
7 , it is used for regulation of the
air conditioning.
The air conditioning system
does not contain chlorine and
does not present any danger
to the ozone layer.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A = maximum
N e v e r fi l l p a s t t h i s m a r k .
B = minimum
Dipstick
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet. Changing the brake fluid
T h e b r a k e fl u i d m u s t b e
changed at the intervals
stated, according to the
manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
U s e fl u i d s r e c o m m e n d e d b y t h e m a n -
u f a c t u r e r , w h i c h f u l fi l D O T 4 s t a n d a r d s . Windscreen and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and
for your safety, we would ad-
vise that you use products
recommended by PEUGEOT .
When the level is low, this is indicated
by an audible signal and a message
on the multifunction display.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require-
ments.
Cooling system
U s e t h e fl u i d r e c o m m e n d e d b y t h e
manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can ope
rate with the ignition key removed and
because the cooling system is pres-
surised, wait for at least one hour after
the engine has stopped before carry-
ing out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level. Diesel additive level (Diesel
with particle emission filter)
Lighting of the service warning light,
accompanied by a message and an
audible signal, indicates that the die-
sel additive level is low.
This additive must be topped up.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer as soon
as possible.
To maintain the reliability of
engines and emission control
systems, the use of additives
in engine oil is prohibited. Used oil
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with the skin.
B r a k e fl u i d i s h a r m f u l t o h e a l t h a n d
very corrosive.
Note
: the coolant does not need to
be changed.
The level must always be
above the MIN mark and
close to the MAX mark. Do not dispose of used oil,
b r a k e fl u i d o r c o o l a n t i n t o
drains or into the ground.
Oil level
Check the level regularly
and top up between chang-
es. The maximum consump-
tion is 0.5 l per 600 miles
(1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the oil level gauge
on the instrument panel or the dip-
stick.

CHECKS
Handbrake Where the handbrake travel
is too great or there is a re-
duction in the performance
of the system, the hand-
brake should be adjusted,
even between services.

It is imperative that maintenance of
t h e p a r t i c l e e m i s s i o n fi l t e r i s c a r r i e d
out by a PEUGEOT dealer in accord-
ance with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends
on the style of driving, in
particular for vehicles which
are used in town, over short
distances.
Brake disc/drum wear status
For any information relating to the
wear of the surfaces of the discs and
drums, contact a PEUGEOT dealer. Oil filter
C h a n g e t h e fi l t e r r e g u l a r l y , i n
accordance with the servic-
ing schedule.
It may be necessary to
check the thickness of the
pads, even between services.
Unless there is a leak in the c i r c u i t , a d r o p i n t h e b r a k e fl u i d l e v e l
indicates that the brake pads are
worn.
At the start of winter, have
your battery checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer.
Refer to the servicing book-
let for information on the
replacement interval for
these components.
Depending on the environ-
ment (dusty atmosphere...) and the
use of the vehicle (urban driving...),
change them twice as often, if ne
cessary (refer to the "Engines" para-
graph).

Following prolonged opera-
tion of the vehicle at very
low speed or at idle, you
may, in exceptional circum-
stances, notice steam coming from
the exhaust during acceleration. This
has no effect on the performance of
the vehicle or on the environment.
