Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats. Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference. Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular: - before a long journey, - at each change of season, - after a long period out of use. Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and observe the schedule of operations recommended by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Access
Fuel tank Capacity of the tank: approximately 72 litres (or 55 litres according to version).
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to be registered by the fuel gauge. Opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal and results from the sealing of the fuel system.  Take care to select the pump that delivers
the correct fuel type for your vehicle's engine (reminder on a label on the inside of the filler flap).  Open the filler cap by turning it a 1/4 turn to the left.  Remove the filler cap and hang it on its carrier (on the filler flap).
Opening
If you have put in the wrong fuel for your vehicle, you must have have the tank drained and refilled with the correct fuel before you star t the engine.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the system in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the key.
- Press the switch. This control remains active for a few minutes after switching off the ignition. If necessary, switch the ignition on again to reactivate it.
Refuelling
 Introduce the nozzle and push it in fully (pushing on the the metal non-return valve A ). A ). A Fill the tank. Do not continue past the third cut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause malfunctions.
 Refit the filler cap turning it a 1/4 turn to the right.  Push the filler flap to close it.
Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter, a device which helps to reduce the level of harmful emissions in the exhaust gases. For petrol engines, you must use unleaded fuel only. The filler neck is narrower, admitting petrol nozzles only.

Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the tank is reached, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by an audible warning and a message in the instrument panel screen. When it first comes on, around 7 litres of fuel remain in the tank. You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a collision.
It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill the tank but this must be done slowly. 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.
Diesel misfuel prevention
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.
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 filler nozzle.
Operation
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.

Comfort
 Select: - immediate to start the heating or ventilation (once confirmed "OK"), - the first clock to programme/store your departure time, - the second clock to programme/store a second departure time. Depending on the departure time chosen, the system calculates automatically the optimum time to start operating.
The immediate or programmed activation of Ventilation mode depends on the temperatures inside and outside the vehicle.
Always switch off the programmable heating while refuelling to avoid any risk of fire or explosion. To avoid the risk of intoxication and asphyxiation, the programmable heating must not be used, even for
short periods, in an enclosed area such as a garage or workshop not equipped with exhaust gas extraction. Do not park the vehicle on an inflammable sur face (dry grass, dead leaves, paper…), there is a risk of fire. Using these two clocks and according to season you can, for example, select one or the other departure time. A message in the instrument panel screen confirms your choice.
Only one programmed or immediate preheating/preventilation can be activated between two starts of the vehicle.
The heating and the ventilation in immediate or programmable mode is not activated when: - the fuel level is too low, - the battery is not sufficiently charged.
To programme the heating and the ventilation, it is necessary to first deactivate the alarm volumetric and tilt monitoring (see the "Alarm" section).
