FILLING WITH FUEL

Low fuel level


Filling
The fuel tank must be fi lled with
the engine off
.


- Open the fuel fi ller fl ap.

- Insert the key, then turn it a quarter
turn.

- Remove the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of
the fl ap.


When fi lling with fuel, with the fuel
fi ller fl ap open, ensure that no
one attempts to open the sliding
side door. When the minimum fuel tank
level is reached, this warning
light comes on.
You then have approximately 8 litres

of fuel remaining. Fill up without delay
to avoid running out of fuel.
Never risk driving until you run out of
fuel as this may damage the emissions
control and injection systems.











Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
A label affi xed to the inside of the fl ap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used.
You must fi ll with at least 5 litres of fuel
for it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When the fuel fi ller cap is opened,
there may be a slight air suction noise.
This vacuum is entirely normal and is
due to the sealing of the fuel circuit.
When fi lling the fuel tank, do not
continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the
nozzle. This could cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 60 litres.


- After fi lling the fuel tank, lock the
cap and close the fl ap.

The petrol engines are perfectly
compatible with E10 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10% ethanol),
conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85%
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles 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).

FUEL CUT-OFF

In a serious collision, a mechanism
automatically prevents fuel from
reaching the engine.
The fl ashing of this warning
lamp is accompanied by a
message in the screen.
Check that there is no odour or
leakage of fuel outside the vehicle and
re-establish the fuel supply:


- switch off the ignition (STOP
position),

- remove the key,

- put the key back in the ignition,

- switch on the ignition and start.

DIESEL PRIMING PUMP

If you should run out of fuel, it is
necessary to prime the fuel circuit:


- fi ll the fuel tank with at least
fi ve litres of Diesel,

- squeeze and release the manual
priming pump, under the bonnet
under the protective cover,

- operate the starter until the engine
starts.
Refer to the "Under the bonnet"
section of chapter 6.












Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines

The Diesel engines are perfectly
compatible with biofuels which conform
to current and future European
standards (Diesel fuel which complies
with standard 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 certain
Diesel engines; however, this use
is subject to strict application of the
special servicing conditions. Contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or
diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly
prohibited (risk of damage to the
engine and fuel system).

Battery

BATTERY

Before disconnecting the battery, you
must wait for 2 minutes after switching
off the ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Never charge a battery without fi rst
disconnecting the terminals.
After every reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. If problems
remain after doing this, please contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
After changing bulbs, wait
approximately 3 minutes before
reconnecting the battery.

It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is not to be
used for a period of more than one
month.

To charge the battery using
a battery charger


- Disconnect the battery,

- Follow the instructions for use
given by the battery charger
manufacturer,

- Reconnect starting with the
negative (-) terminal,

- Check that the terminals and
connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (white or
greenish deposit), disconnect them
and clean them.



To start the vehicle from
another battery


- Connect the red cable to the
positive (+) terminals of the
two batteries,

- Connect one end of the green
or black cable to the negative (-)
terminal of the slave battery,

- Connect the other end of the green
or black cable to an earth point on
the broken down vehicle as far as
possible from the battery,

- Operate the starter, let the engine run,

- Wait for the engine to return to idle,
then disconnect the cables.





The presence of this label
indicates the use of a 12 V
lead-acid battery with special
technology and specifi cation, for which
the involvement of a PEUGEOT dealer
or qualifi ed workshop is required when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to observe this
recommendation may cause premature
wear of the battery.

After refi tting the battery, the Stop &
Start system will only be active after
several hours depending on the
climatic conditions and the state of
charge of the battery (up to about
8 hours).

The Stop & Start battery does not have
to be disconnected for charging.

ECONOMY MODE

After the engine has stopped, with
the key in the ignition position, certain
functions (windscreen wiper, electric
windows, courtesy lamps, audio
equipment, etc.) can only be used for a
cumulative duration of thirty minutes, to
prevent discharging of the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the
active functions are put on standby
and the battery warning lamp fl ashes
accompanied by a message in the
screen.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it
run for a few minutes.
The time available will then be double
the time for which the engine was left
running. However, this time will always
be between fi ve and thirty minutes.
A fl at battery will prevent the engine
from starting.

1. PARKING THE VEHICLE



- The occupants must get out of the
vehicle and wait in a safe location.

- If possible, park the vehicle on
level, stable and non-slippery
ground.

reverse gear.
- If available, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
one to be changed.
If the vehicle is fi tted with a towbar,
it is sometimes necessary to raise
the vehicle slightly to make it easier
to remove the spare wheel from its
carrier.
On certain types of ground and/or
if considerable loads are being
transported, call a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.

4. OPERATING PROCEDURE


- Place the jack in contact with the
locating point provided, the one
which is closest to the wheel to
be changed. Ensure that the jack
is straight and that the base of
the jack is fully in contact with the
ground.

clear of the ground.

- Resume and complete the
unscrewing of the wheel bolts.

- Remove the bolts and remove the
wheel.

- Remove the trim using the removal
tool.

- Lower the vehicle completely by
folding the jack, then remove the
jack.

- Tighten the bolts again using the
wheelbrace, tighten them fully
without forcing them.

- Place the wheel to be repaired in
the carrier.
- Secure the carrier on the hook then
raise the carrier using the bolt and

Never go underneath a vehicle
that is supported only by a
jack (use a ramp). Never use a
screwdriver in place of the wheelbrace


5. FITTING THE SPARE WHEEL



- Position the wheel on the hub and
start tightening the bolts by hand.

- Carry out an initial tightening of the
bolts using the wheelbrace.
