Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom 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 refit 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 filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of operations recommended in the warranty and maintenance record.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Identify the fault by means of the associated message, such as: - low engine oil level, - low screenwash/headlamp wash fluid level, - discharged remote control battery, - low tyre pressures, - saturation of the particle emission filter (PEF) on Diesel vehicles. For more information on the PEF, refer to the "Checks - particle emissions filter" section. For any other faults, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Service indicator
This is a check against the planned servicing intervals in the manufacturer's servicing schedule. It is calculated from the last service indicator reset according to the number of miles travelled and the time elapsed since the last service.
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 in the screen.
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km) remain before the next service is due
Example: 560 miles (900 km) remain before the next service is due. For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
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 recorder display line indicates the
distance remaining before the next service is due. Example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain before the next service is due. For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder the spanner goes offresumes its normal operation. The screen then indicates the total and trip distances.
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 carried out soon.
For Blue HDi Diesel versions only (depending on country of sale), the level of deterioration of the engine oil is also taken into account.

Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner flashes to indicate that the service must be carried out as soon as possible. Example: the service is overdue by 186 miles (3 0 0 k m). For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the screen indicates:
The spanner may also come on if you have exceeded the period since the last service, as indicated in the maintenance and warranty guide. With Blue HDi Diesel versions, the spanner can also come on in advance
of the service interval, according to the level of deterioration of the engine oil, which depends on the driving conditions in which the vehicle is used.
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the distance recorder resumes its normal operation. The spanner remains on . With Blue HDi Diesel versions the Servicewarning lamp may come on as soon as the ignition is switched on.
Service indicator zero reset
Following this operation, if you wish to
disconnect the battery, lock the vehicle and wait at least five minutes for the zero reset to be registered.
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.
After each service, the service indicator must be reset to zero. If you have carried out the service on your vehicle yourself: 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.

Engine oil level indicator
On versions fitted with an electric oil gauge, information on the oil level is displayed in the instrument panel for a few seconds when the ignition is switched on, at the same time as the service information.
The level read will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more than 30 minutes.
Oil level correct
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel.
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel. If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using the dipstick, the level must be topped up to avoid damage to the engine.
Oil level indicator fault
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Dipstick
There are 2 marks on the dipstick: - A = max; never exceed this level, - B = min; top up the level via the oil filler, using the grade of oil suited to your engine.
Refer to the "Checks" section to locate the dipstick and the oil filler cap on your engine.
