control
☞Press button A.
This is confirmed by fixed lighting
of the direction indicators for
approximately two seconds.
Unlocking with the remote
control key
☞Press button B.
This is confirmed by rapid flash-
ing of the direction indicators.
With the vehicle unlocked, the
boot is opened using the push
button located on the right rear

REAR PARKING
ASSISTANCE
This system, installed in the rear
bumper, detects any obstacle (per-
son, vehicle, tree, gate, kerb...)
located behind the vehicle.
To activate
With the engine running, the sys-
tem is activated as soon as
reverse gear is engaged; a bleep
sounds to inform you that it is
active.
The proximity information is
given by an audible signal, con-
sisting of bleeps which become
more and more rapid as the vehi-
cle approaches the obstacle.
When the distance between the
rear of the vehicle and the obsta-
cle is less than approximately
twenty-five centimetres, the
signal becomes con-
tinuous.
☞The system ceas-
es to be active
when you change
to neutral.
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure
during driving, and trigger a warn-
ing if there is a malfunction (speed
greater than 15 mph (25 km/h).
Tyre under-inflation
When this warning light
comes on, accompanied
by a bleep and the mes-
sage 'Tyre(s) pressure
low', have the tyre pressure
checked as soon as possible.
Puncture
Display of this warning
light, accompanied by an
audible signal and the
message 'Punctured
tyre(s) detected', is fol-
lowed by illumination of the
STOP warning light.
Stop immediately, avoiding all
abrupt manoeuvres with the
steering wheel and the brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured
or very under-inflated) wheel and
have the tyre pressure checked
as soon as possible.
Note: if the damaged wheel is
stored temporarily in the boot, it
will again send this message as a
reminder of the necessity of hav-
ing it repaired. This will prevent a
similar warning being displayed.
Sensor(s) not detected
Display of this warning
light, accompanied by an
audible signal and the
message 'X tyre pres-
sure sensor(s) missing', indi-
cates that one or more wheels
are not being detected.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer to
replace the faulty sensor(s).
Warning: this message is dis-
played when one of the wheels is
at a distance from the vehicle
(being repaired) or when a wheel
without a sensor is fitted (winter
fitting).
This system does not eliminate
the need to check the tyre
pressure regularly.

PEUGEOT SERVICING
The maintenance cycle of your 607 is based on level A (including the replacement of the engine oil, the oil filter and a
set of checks) and level C services [service level A + workshop operations carried out every 40,000 miles (60 000 km)] in
accordance with the tables on the following pages.
So that the driving conditions and your style of driving may be taken into account, your 607 is fitted with a service indica-
tor which programmes the intervals for the level A service:
• every 20,000 miles (30 000 km) maximum or 2 years for petrol engines,
• every 12,000 miles (20 000 km) maximum or 2 years for direct injection diesel engines.
The frequency of level A services specific to your vehicle will be determined by three elements:
• the number of engine revolutions,
• the engine oil temperature,
• prolonged periods of the vehicle not being used.
Depending on these elements, the service indicator will suggest a time which is more or less the same as the initial plan.
Depending on the conditions of use, one or more level A services can be carried out between two level C services.
Depending on the mileage recorded, your dealer may offer to carry out the level C service to avoid the visits being too close
together.
PEUGEOT SERVICING
18

15-07-2002
The extension of the service intervals means that the engine oil level must be checked regularly: topping up of the
oil between two oil changes is normal.
It is for this reason that your PEUGEOT dealer will invite you to an intermediate visit between services. The date of
this 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, screen wash up to
2 litres).
If the oil level is too low, there is a risk of significant damage to the engine: check the engine oil level at least every
3,000 miles (5 000 km).
This maintenance frequency is the result of developments to our vehicles and to the lubricants:
THUS IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU ONLY USE ENGINE LUBRICANTS THAT ARE APPROVED AND RECOMMENDED
BY THE MANUFACTURER (see pages on 'Lubricants').

A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the total distance
recorder resumes normal operation
and the display shows the total and
trip distances.
The distance remaining before the
next service is less than 1,000 km.
A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the distance recorder
resumes normal operation and the
spanner remains lit. This indicates
that a service should be carried out
shortly.
SERVICE INDICATOR
Located on the instrument panel with
the total distance recorder (total and
trip distances), this programmes
drain/refill intervals depending on the
use of the vehicle.
Operation
A few moments after the ignition has
been switched on, the spanner sym-
bolising services lights up; the dis-
play for the total distance recorder
tells you (in round figures) the dis-
tance remaining before your next
service.
Example: 4,800 km remain before
the next service is due. When the
ignition is switched on and for a few
seconds, the display shows:
The service is overdue.
Each time the ignition is switched on
and for a few seconds, the symbol
and the excess distance flash.
Note: with the engine running the
symbol flashes until the service has
been carried out

MAINTENANCE OF PARTS SUBJECT TO WEAR AND A CHECK OF CONSUMABLES
Certain essential components on your vehicle are subject to checks at specific
frequencies.
•The brake fluid is to be replaced at a maximum of every 36,000/40,000 miles
(60 000km) or every two years.
•The pollen filter must be checked at each service by a PEUGEOT dealer
(services and intermediate visits) or more often, depending on the environ-
ment (dust, pollution, etc.).
•For HDI turbo diesel engines with particulate emission filter, maintenance
of the filter and topping up of the additive reservoir must be carried out
every 48,000 miles (80 000 km) by a PEUGEOT dealer.
•Replacement of the timing belt : contact a PEUGEOT dealer.
• Air bags and pretensioning parts on seat belts must be checked every
10 years by a PEUGEOT dealer.
• Tyre pressure sensors are to be replaced every 10 years.
•The check on tyre inflation presure must be carried out cold at least once a
month.

☞Switch off the ignition,
☞
Press and hold the trip recorder re-
set button,
☞Switch on the ignition.
The display begins a countdown.

THE SERVICE LEVELS
Each vehicle has its own servicing cycle, defined by the manufacturer in terms of its technical specification.
This cycle consists of alternating 2 types of service A and C, intermediate visits and a few additional operations specific to
your vehicle; these correspond to key stages in the life of your 607.
At your first and each subsequent service, your dealer will advise you of the type and content of the next service
due.
