relating the type of lighting to the
vehicle operating status can it be
ascertained whether the situation
is normal or whether a fault has oc-
curred.
Indicator and warning lights
Visual indicators which inform the driv-
er when a system comes into opera-
tion (operation or deactivation indicator
lights) or of the occurrence of a fault
(warning light).
Associated warnings
The lighting of certain indicator/warning
lights may be accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the multifunction

Service indicator
System which informs the driver when
the next service is due, in accord-
ance with the manufacturer’s servicing
schedule.
The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last indicator zero re-
set. It is determined by two parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time elapsed since the last service.
More than 500 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the spanner symbolising
the service operations comes on. The
distance recorder display line indicates
the distance remaining before the next
service is due.

Example: 4 800 miles/km remain before
the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the spanner is switched off ; the
distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The display then indicates
the total and trip distances. Less than 500 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due

Example: 400 miles (900 km) remain
before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the distance recorder resumes its
normal operation. The spanner re-
mains on to indicate that a service
must be carried out soon.

Following this operation, if you wish
to disconnect the battery, lock the
vehicle and wait at least fi ve min-
utes for the zero reset to be taken
into account.


Service indicator zero reset
After each service, the service indicator
must be reset to zero.
To do this, carry out the following pro-
cedure:

 switch off the ignition,

 press and hold the trip distance
recorder zero reset button,

 switch on the ignition; the distance
recorder display begins a count-
down,

 when the display indicates "=0" ,
release the button; the spanner
disappears.
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depend-
ing on the driver’s driving habits.
Therefore, the spanner may also
come on if you have exceeded the
two year service interval.
Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on,
the spanner fl ashes to
indicate that the service must be carried
out as soon as possible.

Example: the service is overdue by
300 miles (km).
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the distance recorder resumes its
normal operation. The spanner re-
mains lit .

The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 15 minutes.
Engine oil level indicator
System which informs the driver of the
validity or invalidity of the engine oil
level.
This information is indicated for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched
on, after the service information.
Oil level correct Oil level gauge fault
Dipstick
This is indicated by the fl ashing of

"OIL" , linked with the service warning
light, accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the multifunction dis-
play.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a check
using the dipstick, it is essential that the
level is topped up to prevent damage to
the engine. This is indicated by the fl ashing of
"OIL --" .
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.
Refer to the "Checks" section to locate
the dipstick and the oil fi ller cap on your
engine.
There are 2 marks on the
dipstick:
- A = max; never exceed
this level,
- B = min; top up the level
via the oil fi ller cap, us-
ing the type of oil suited
to your engine.
