Lost keys
Visit a PEUGEOT dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your
personal identifi cation documents and if possible the key code label.
The PEUGEOT dealer will be able to fi nd the key code and the transponder
code required to order a new key.
Do not throw the remote con-
trol batteries away, they contain
metals which are harmful to the
environment.
Take them to an approved collection
point.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate it while it is in your
pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range and out of sight of
your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would have
to be reinitialised.
The remote control does not operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even when the
ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compartment
by the emergency services more diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the key from the ignition
switch when you leave the vehicle, even for a short time.
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifi cations to the electronic engine immobiliser system; this
could cause malfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer, to ensure that only your keys can be used to open and start the vehicle.

ACCESS
The key cannot be removed
from the lock until the cap is
put back on the tank.
Opening the cap may trigger an in-
rush of air. This vacuum, which is
completely normal, is caused by the
sealing of the fuel system.
FUEL TANK
Capacity of the tank: approximately
60 litres.
To fi ll the tank safely:
)
the engine must be switched off,
)
open the fuel fi ller fl ap,
)
insert the key in the cap, then turn it
to the left,
When refuelling is complete:
)
put the cap back in place,
)
turn the key to the right, then remove
it from the cap,
)
close the fi ller fl ap.
)
remove the cap and secure it on the
hook, located on the inside of the fl ap,
)
fi ll the tank, but do not continue af-
ter the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle
;
this could cause malfunctions.
Low fuel level
Operating fault
A malfunction of the fuel gauge is indi-
cated by the return to zero of the fuel
gauge needle.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
Refuelling
A label affi xed to the inside of the fi ller
fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used according to your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be add-
ed in order to be registered by the fuel
gauge. When the low fuel level is
reached, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the multifunction screen. When the
lamp fi rst comes on, there is approxi-
mately
6 litres
of fuel remaining.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the
ignition is switched on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message. When
driving, this audible signal and message
are repeated with increasing frequency,
as the fuel level drops towards "0"
.
You must refuel to avoid run-
ning out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer
also to the "Checks" section.
With Stop & Start, never re-
fuel with the system in STOP
mode; you must switch off the
ignition with the key.

ACCESS
Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly com-
patible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % etha-
nol), conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for ve-
hicles marketed for the use of this type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of
the ethanol must comply with European
standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up
to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly com-
patible with biofuels which conform to
current and future European standards
(Diesel fuel which complies with stan-
dard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which
complies with standard EN 14214)
available at the pumps (containing up
to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in cer-
tain Diesel engines; however, this use
is subject to strict application of the
special servicing conditions. Contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or dilut-
ed, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
system).
MISFUEL PREVENTION *
Mechanical device which prevents fi lling
the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It
avoids the risk of engine damage that can
result from fi lling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the fi ller neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the
fi ller cap is removed.
Operation
When a petrol fi ller nozzle is introduced into
the fuel fi ller neck of your Diesel vehicle, it
comes into contact with the fl ap. The system
remains closed and prevents fi lling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
fi ller nozzle.
It is still possible to use a fuel
can to fi ll the reservoir.
In order to ensure a good fl ow
of fuel, do not place the nozzle of the
fuel can in direct contact with the fl ap
of the misfuel prevention device.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be dif-
ferent in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may
make refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we recommend
that you check with the PEUGEOT dealer
network, whether your vehicle is suitable
for the fuel pumps in the country in which
you want to travel.
* According to destination country.

SAFETY
Dynamic stability control
(DSC) The DSC system offers excep-
tional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage
the driver to take extra risks or drive
at high speed.
The correct functioning of the system
depends on observation of the manu-
facturer's recommendations regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the braking
components, the electronic components
and the assembly and repair procedures
used by PEUGEOT dealers.
After an impact, have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground...), it may be ad-
visable to deactivate the DSC system,
so that the wheels can move freely and
regain grip.

each time the ignition is switched back
on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible sig-
nal and a message in the multi-
function screen, this indicates a
malfunction of the system.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to have the system checked.
This is indicated by fl ashing of
this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.
Activation
This system is activated automatically
