being driven, the illumination of one of the fol-
lowing warning lamps indicates a fault which
requires action on the part of the driver. Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated
further by reading the associated message in the multifunction screen.
If you encounter any problems, do not hesitate to contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

Engine oil level indicator * Oil level correct
Oil level low Oil level indicator fault
This is indicated by the fl ashing of
"OIL" , accompanied by illumination of
the service warning lamp, an audible
signal and a message.
If the low oil level is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, the level must
be topped up to prevent damage to the
engine.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section. This is signaled by the fl ashing of
"OIL--" .
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.
On vehicles fi tted with an electric oil level
indicator, information on the oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a
few seconds when the ignition is switched
on, after the service information.
* Depending on version. In the event of a fault with the elec-

CHECKING LEVELS
Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
Take care when working under the bon-
net, as some parts of the engine can be
extremely hot (risk of burns).
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either
when the ignition is switched
on using the oil level indicator
in the instrument panel for ve-
hicles with and electric oil level gauge,
or using the dipstick.
To ensure that the reading is correct,
your vehicle must be parked on a level
surface and the engine having been off
for more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level be-
tween two services (or oil changes).
PEUGEOT recommends that you check
the level, and top up if necessary, every
3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
Checking using the dipstick
Refer to the "Petrol engine" or "Diesel
engine" section for the location of the
dipstick in the engine compartment of
your vehicle.
 Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and remove it completely. A = MAX
B = MIN
If you fi nd that the level is above the A
mark or below the B mark, do not start
the engine .
- If the level is above the MAX mark
(risk of damage to the engine), con-
tact a PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop.
- If the level is below the MIN mark,
you must top up the engine oil.
Oil grade
Before topping-up the oil or changing
the oil, check that the oil is the correct
grade for your engine and conforms to
the manufacturer's recommendations. Topping up the engine oil level
Refer to the "Petrol engine" or "Diesel
engine" section for the location of the oil
fi ller cap in the engine compartment of
your vehicle.
 Unscrew the oil fi ller cap to reveal
the fi ller aperture.
 Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills on engine components
(risk of fi re).
 Wait a few minutes before checking the level again using the dipstick.
 Add more oil if necessary.
 After checking the level, carefully re- fi t the oil fi ller cap and the dipstick in
its tube.
After topping up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil
level indicator in the instrument panel
is not valid during the 30 minutes after
topping up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the warranty and maintenance
record for details of the interval for this
operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.
 Wipe the end of the dipstick using a
clean non-fl uffy cloth.
 Refi t the dipstick and push fully down, then pull it out again to make
the visual check: the correct level is
between the marks A and B .
