Engine Oil Level Indicator - PEUGEOT 308 Handbook

Engine oil level indicator

On versions fitted with an electric oil gauge,
information on the oil level is displayed in the
instrument panel for a few seconds when the
ignition is switched on, at the same time as the
service information.
The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and the
engine has been off for more than
30 minutes.
Oil level correct
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel.
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
avoid damage to the engine.
Oil level indicator fault
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.
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, using the grade
of oil suited to your engine.
