PEUGEOT SERVICING
PEUGEOT SERVICING
Your vehicle's servicing schedule is based on level A services (engine oil change, checks and top-ups) and level C services
(level A + workshop operations carried out every 36,000/40,000 miles (60 000 km)) in accordance with the tables on the fol-
lowing pages.
Irrespective of the conditions in which your vehicle is used, the interval between two level A services may not exceed:
• For petrol engines, 20,000 miles (30 000 km) or 2 years.
• For HDI turbo diesel engines, 12,000 miles (20 000 km) or 2 years.
The extension of the service intervals means that the engine oil must be checked regularly: topping up of the oil
between two oil changes is normal.
It is for this reason that your PEUGEOT dealer invites you to an intermediate visit between each service. The date
of the intermediate visit is not shown by the service indicator.
It is to be carried out between two services.
A PEUGEOT professional will carry out a quick check, and will top up the levels if necessary (oil, coolant, screenwash up to
2 litres).
If the oil level is too low there is a risk of serious damage to the engine: check the engine oil level at least every
3,000 miles (5 000 km).
This extended servicing has been made possible by modifications to our vehicles and to the lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIAL TO ONLY USE ENGINE LUBRICANTS THAT ARE SUITED TO YOUR ENGINE AND RECOM-
MENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER (see "Lubricants" pages).
Arduous conditions of use
This applies if the vehicle is used in certain particularly arduous conditions such as continuous door-to-door use, town
use (e.g. taxi), repeated short journeys, with the engine cold in low temperatures or for long stays in hot countries
with temperatures often above 30 °C, cold countries with temperatures often below minus 15 °C, countries with a dusty
atmosphere, and countries whose lubricants or fuels do not conform to our recommendations.
It is then necessary to follow an "Arduous conditions" servicing schedule, which includes special operations and shorter ser-
vice intervals:
• Every 12,000 miles (20 000 km) or every year for petrol vehicles.
• Every 10,000 miles (15 000 km) or every year for HDI Turbo Diesel engine vehicles.
