Servicing
Principle
The vehicle's odometer is displayed in area A
of the display screen and the trip recorder in
area B. -
it remains displayed if the service is
overdue,
The service indicator does not appear if it is
more than 2 000 miles (3 000 km) before the
next service is due.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions only
(depending on country of sale), the
degree of deterioration of the engine oil
is also taken into account.
Compared to the intervals given in the
manufacturer's service schedule, this is a
countdown related to the interval.
It is calculated from the last reset of
the service indicator, according to the
mileage covered and the time elapsed
since the last service. The service indicator appears when
approaching a servicing point:
- it indicates the distance before the next
service is due,
- it displays the servicing interval in
two ways,

Retrieving the service
information
You can access the service information at any
time.
F Press the trip distance recorder zero reset
button.
The service information is displayed for a
few seconds, then disappears.
With the trip mileage displayed, press the
button for a few seconds.
Trip recorder 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.
Service indicator zero reset
After each service, the service indicator must
be reset to zero.
If you have carried out the service on your
vehicle yourself:
F switch off the ignition,
F press and hold the trip distance recorder
zero reset button,
F switch on the ignition; the distance recorder
display begins a countdown,
F when the display indicates "=0" , release
the button; the spanner disappears.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, this
alert is also accompanied by the fixed
illumination of the Service warning
lamp, when the ignition is switched on.
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depending
on the driving conditions.
Therefore, the spanner may also come
on if you have exceeded the period
since the last service, indicated in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
spanner can also come on early,
according to the degree of deterioration
of the engine oil. The deterioration
of the engine oil depends on the
conditions in which the vehicle is used.

Oil level
PrincipleAdvice
Dipstick
Refer to the "Checks" section to locate the
dipstick and the oil filler cap on your engine.
There are 2 marks on the dipstick:
- A = max; never exceed this
level,
- B = min; top up the level via
the oil filler cap, using the
grade of oil suited to your
engine.
Checking
F Open the bonnet and secure it with the
st ay.
F Pull the dipstick out and wipe it with a clean
cloth.
F Return the dipstick to its tube and then pull
it out again to check the level against the
mark.
F Return the dipstick to its tube.
Low oil level
F Identify the engine oil filler cap.
F Open the filler cap.
F Add engine oil with exceeding mark A .
F Fit the filler cap. Take car when working under the
bonnet, as some parts of the engine
can be very hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan can start at any time (even
with the ignition switched off).
If a level is found to be very low, have
the corresponding system checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
A check of the engine oil level is only
valid if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for at least
30 minutes.
Oil grade: the oil used must meet
the specification given in the
manufacturer's servicing and warranty
booklet.
