Indicator and warning lamps

Visual indicators informing the driver that a system is in operation (operation or deactivation

indicator lamps) or of the occurrence of a fault (warning lamp).

When the ignition is switched on

Associated warnings

The warning lamps may come on

continuously (fixed) or flash.

Certain warning lamps come on for a few

seconds when the vehicle's ignition is

switched on.

When the engine is started, these same

warning lamps should go off.

The illumination of certain warning lamps may

be accompanied by an audible signal and a

message in the multifunction screen.

Certain warning lamps may come on

in one of two different modes. Only by

relating the type of illumination to the

operating status of the vehicle can it

be ascertained whether the situation is

normal or whether a fault has occurred.

If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the

information on the warning lamp concerned.

Engine oil level indicator*

Oil level correct

Oil level indicator fault

On versions fitted with an electric oil level

indicator, the state of the engine oil level is

displayed in the instrument panel for a few

seconds when the ignition is switched on, after

the service information.

This is signalled by the flashing of "OIL--" or the

display of a message "Oil level measurement

invalid" in the instrument panel Contact a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Oil level low

In the event of a fault with the electric indicator,

the engine oil level is no longer monitored.

When the system has a fault, you should check

the engine oil level using the manual dipstick

(located under the bonnet).

This is signalled by the flashing of "OIL", or the

display of a message "Oil level incorrect" in the

instrument panel, accompanied by illumination

of the service warning lamp and an audible

signal.

If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using

the dipstick, the level must be topped up to

prevent damage to the engine.

Refer to the "Checks of levels" section.

The level shown will only be correct if

the vehicle is on level ground and the

engine has been off for more than

30 minutes.
