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.
