Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are per fectly compatible with E10 or E24 type petrol biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % 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).
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are per fectly 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 qualified 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).

Misfuel prevention (Diesel) *
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling. Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type filler nozzle.
* According to country of sale.
Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong fuel. Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention device appears when the filler cap is removed.
Operation
It remains possible to use a fuel can to fill the tank. In order to ensure a good flow of fuel, do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in direct contact with the flap of the misfuel prevention device and pour s l ow l y.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be different 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.

Running out of fuel (Diesel)
1.6 litre HDi engine
Fill the fuel tank with at least five litres of diesel. Open the bonnet. If necessary, unclip the styling cover for access to the priming pump. Squeeze and release the priming pump repeatedly until resistance is felt (there may be resistance at the first press). Operate the starter until the engine starts (if the engine does not start at the first attempt, wait around 15 seconds before trying again). If the engine does not start after a few attempts, operate the priming pump again then start the engine. Clip the styling cover back in place. Close the bonnet.
2 litre HDi engine
Fill the fuel tank with at least five litres of Diesel. Open the bonnet. If necessary, unclip the style cover for access to the priming pump. Slacken the bleed screw. Squeeze and release the priming pump repeatedly until fuel appears in the transparent pipe. Tighten the bleed screw. Operate the starter until the engine starts (if the engine fails to start at the first attempt, wait around 15 seconds before trying again). If the engine fails to start after a few attempts, operate the priming pump again, then the starter. Put the style cover back in position and clip it in place, ensuring that it has clipped
c o r r e c t l y. Close the bonnet.
On vehicle fitted with HDi engines, the fuel system must be primed if you run out of fuel; refer to the corresponding engine compartment view.
If the tank on your vehicle is fitted with a misfuel prevention device, refer to the "Misfuel prevention (Diesel)" section.
If the engine does not start first time, don't keep trying. Start the procedure again from the beginning.
