The check is carried out either when the ignition is switched on using the oil level indicator on the instrument panel, or using the dipstick.
This manual check will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two services (or oil changes). PEUGEOT recommends that you check the level, and top up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
After topping up the oil, the check when switching on the ignition with the oil level indicator in the instrument panel is not valid during the 30 minutes after topping up.
