level is indicated for a few seconds, after the
service information.
Oil level correct
Low oil level
Flashing of "OIL" , linked
with the service warning
lamp, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message in the
screen, indicates a low oil level which could
damage the engine.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check
using the dipstick, it is essential that the
level is topped up.
Oil level gauge fault

indicates a malfunction
of the engine oil level
indicator. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a

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. Dipstick
