System which informs the driver of
the changes in the temperature of the
engine coolant while driving. With the engine running, when the
needle is:
- in zone
A , the temperature is correct,
- in zone B , the temperature is too
high; the max temperature warning
light 1 and the central STOP warning

INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
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 reset. It is determined by two param-eters:
- the distance travelled,
-the time elapsed since the last service.
Between 600 miles (1 000 km) and 1 800 miles (3 000 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 re-corder display line indicates the distance remaining before the next service is due.
Example: 2 800 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 switched offdistance recorder resumes its normal operation. The display then indicates the total and trip distances.
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain before the next service is due
Example: 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 remains on to indicate that a service must be car-ried out soon.
More than 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain before the next service is due
When the ignition is switched on, no service information appears on the display.

INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
Following this operation, if you wish
to disconnect the battery, lock the
vehicle and wait at least fi ve minutes
for the zero reset to be taken into
account.
Maintenance indicator zero reset
After each service, the maintenance in-
dicator must be reset to zero.
The procedure for resetting to zero is as
follows:

 switch off the ignition,

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

 switch on the ignition; the
distance recorder display begins a
countdown,

 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 in-dicate 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 .
Retrieving the service information
You can access the service information
at any time.

 Press the trip distance recorder zero
reset button.
The service information is displayed for a few seconds, then disappears.

INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
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
Lack of oil 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 display.
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 (risk of
damage to the engine),
- B = min; top up the
level via the oil fi ller
cap, using the type
of oil suited to your
engine.
