MAINTENANCE OF YOUR 406
SERVICE LEVELS
Each vehicle has its own servicing cycle, based upon the engine type.
The servicing cycle consists of alternating 2 types of service A and C, intermediate visits, and a few additional operations
depending on your vehicle; these correspond to key stages in the life of your 406.
Level B service is designed for less recent vehicles.
When the first service is carried out and at each subsequent service, your dealer will advise you of the type and
content of the next service due.
