Indicators
Service indicator
This adjusts the ser vice inter val based on the 
vehicle usage.
Operation
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched 
on, the spanner indicating a ser vice operation 
comes on. The distance recorder display line 
indicates the distance remaining before the 
next ser vice is due (rounded up by default).
The ser vice due dates are calculated from the 
last reset of the ser vice indicator.
The due date is determined based on two 
parameters:
- 
t
 he total distance travelled,
-
 
t
 he time since the last ser vice.The distance remaining may be weighted 
by the time factor, depending on the type 
of driving.
More than 1,000 miles/km remain 
b efore the next ser vice is due
Example:  there are 4,800   miles/km remaining 
before the next ser vice is due. For a few 
seconds after the ignition is switched on, the 
screen indicates:
Less than 1,000 miles/km remain 
b efore the next ser vice is due
Each time the ignition is switched on and for a 
few seconds, the spanner symbol flashes and 
the distance remaining is displayed:
Service overdue
Each time the ignition is 
switched on and for a few 
seconds, the spanner symbol 
flashes and the excess 
distance travelled is displayed.
With the engine running, the spanner symbol 
remains on until the ser vice has been per formed.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, this alert is also 
accompanied by the continuous illumination of 
the Ser vice warning lamp when the ignition is 
switched on.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the spanner 
can also come on early, according to the 
degree of deterioration of the engine oil. 
The degree of deterioration of the engine 
oil depends on the driving conditions in 
which the vehicle is used.
A few seconds after the ignition is switched 
on, the oil level is displayed, depending on 
the version, and then the distance recorder 
resumes its normal operation, indicating the 
total and trip distances.
A few seconds after the ignition is switched 
on, the oil level is displayed, depending on 
the version, and then the distance recorder  resumes its normal operation. The spanner 
symbol remains on as a reminder that a ser vice 
is required soon.
Zero reset
Your PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop 
will per form this operation after each ser vice.
If you carry out the ser vicing of your vehicle 
yourself, the reset procedure is as follows:

Compatibility of fuels 
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with biofuels 
that conform to current and future European 
standards and which can be obtained from 
filling stations:Petrol that meets standard EN228, 
mixed with a biofuel that meets 
standard EN15376.
Fuel used for Diesel 
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with 
biofuels that conform to current and future 
European standards and which can be 
obtained from filling stations: Diesel fuel that meets standard 
EN590
  mixed with a biofuel that 
meets standard EN14214 (possibly 
containing up to 7% Fatty Acid 
Methyl Ester).
Diesel fuel that meets standard 
EN16734   mixed with a biofuel that 
meets standard EN14214 (possibly 
containing up to 10% Fatty Acid 
Methyl Ester).
Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets 
standard EN15940   mixed with 
a biofuel that meets standard 
EN14214 (possibly containing up to 
7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
B20 or B30 fuel meeting standard 
EN16709 can be used in your 
Diesel engine. However, this use, 
even occasional, requires strict 
application of the special ser vicing 
conditions referred to as "Arduous 
conditions".
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop. The use of any other type of (bio) fuel 
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted, 
domestic fuel, etc.) is strictly prohibited 
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel 
syste m).
The only Diesel additives authorised for 
use are those that meet the B715000 
standard.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0°C (+32°F), the 
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel 
fuels could result in an abnormal operation 
of the fuel supply circuit. To avoid this, we 
recommend using winter-type Diesel fuel and 
keeping the fuel tank more than 50% full.
If, despite this, at temperatures below -15°C 
(+5°F) the engine has problems starting, 
just leave the vehicle in a garage or heated 
workshop for a little while.
The only petrol additives authorised for 
use are those that meet the B715001 
standard.

Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line 
with the manufacturer's servicing schedule. 
Top them up if necessary, unless other wise 
indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the 
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop. If you have to remove/refit the engine 
cover, handle it with care to avoid 
damaging the fixing clips.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or 
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health 
or indeed very corrosive. Do not discard used oil or fluids into 
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or 
a qualified workshop and dispose of it in 
the containers reser ved for this purpose.
Oil level
It is recommended that you check the oil every 
3,000
  miles (5,000   km) and that you top it up 
between two oil changes, if necessary.
Check the level with the vehicle level, engine 
cold, using the dipstick.

If you fill past this mark, consult 
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop. An excess of oil could 
cause engine damage.
B = minimum
If this mark is not reached, top up the level 
through the oil filler cap, using the type of oil 
approved for your engine.
Never allow the level to fall below this mark.
To maintain the reliability of engines and 
emission control systems, the use of additives 
in engine oil is prohibited.
