2012 Peugeot M59 oil

FAMILIARISATION18 -

Limit the causes of excess
consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bot-
tom of the boot, as close as possible
to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle
and reduce wind resistance (roof bars,
roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...).
Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after
use.

At the end of winter, remove snow
tyres and refi t your summer tyres.



Observe the recommendations
on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly,
when cold, referring to the label in the
door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the
tyres on any trailer or caravan.

Have your vehicle serviced regularly
(engine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and
observe the schedule of operations
recommended by the manufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to
a consistent average.

Service indicator

This is a visual reminder of when the
next service is due. This service is to
be carried out according to the man-
ufacturer's servicing schedule. 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance re-
corder resumes normal operation
and the screen shows the total or trip
distances.


The distance remaining before the next
service is less than 1 000 km (600 miles).

Example:
900 km (560 miles) remain before
the next service is due.
When switching on the ignition and for 5 sec-
onds, the screen shows:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance re-
corder resumes normal operation
and the symbol remains on.
This indicates that a service should
be carried out shortly. The screen
shows the total or trip distances.
The service is overdue.
Each time the ignition is switched on
and for 5 seconds, the symbol and
the excess distance fl ash.

Example:
the service is overdue
by 300 km (186 miles). The service
should be carried out very shortly.
When the ignition is switched on and
for 5 seconds, the display shows:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance re-
corder resumes normal operation and
the symbol remains on. The screen
shows the total or trip distances.

Note:
the spanner comes on if the
two-year interval has been exceeded.


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.

Note
: the total and trip distances are
displayed for 30 seconds when the
ignition is switched off, on opening
the driver's door, as well as on lock-
ing and unlocking the vehicle.

Example:
4 800 km (2 980 miles) re-
main before the next service is due.
When the ignition comes on and for
5 seconds the display shows:
Operation
As soon as the ignition is switched on
and for 5 seconds, the spanner sym-
bolising ''service operation'' comes on.

Engine oil level indicator

When the ignition is switched on,
the engine oil level is indicated for
approximately 10 seconds, after the
service information.
Flashing of the six squares and the
display of "max" indicate that the oil
level is too high, which could damage
the engine.
If the excess oil is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer without delay. Your PEUGEOT dealer carries out
this operation after each service.
The reset procedure is as follows:


- Switch off the ignition.

- Press and hold button 1
.

- Switch on the ignition.
The display begins a 10 second count-
down.


-
Keep button 1
pressed for 10 seconds.

The display shows [=0]
and the span-
ner disappears.

Flashing of the six bars and the dis-
play of "min" indicate that the oil level
is too low, which could damage the
engine.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, it is essen-
tial that the level is topped up. Flashing of the six bars indicates a
malfunction of the oil level indicator.
There is a risk of damage to the
engine.
Consult a PEUGEOT dealer.

The level read on the dipstick or on
the indicator will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.
