High voltage
Before doing any work on
the vehicle, switch off the
ignition (Ready lamp off).
High voltage cables
High voltage cables are routed under the
vehicle (sills); take care not to damage them
when the vehicle is used for off-road activity
(such as covering rough ground).
Battery precautions
the high voltage battery must not in any
circumstances be charged from an external
source and must only be handled by a
workshop technician.
th

ere is the risk of serious burns, as well as
electric arcs that could cause serious injury or
even death.
A used Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) type
high voltage battery must be removed in an
appropriate manner by a repair workshop,
so that its recycling presents no risk to the
environment.
ta

ke care to position lifting equipment
( jack, hoist, ...) at the locations provided
to avoid damaging the cables.
th

e voltage used for the operation of the
electric motor is in the range 150 to 270 Volts.
Be sure to take account of the warning labels
fitted to the vehicle.
ta

ke great care regarding the high voltage and
high temperatures of components carrying the
current.
Emergency cut-off
In the event of an accident, a cut-off system
blocks the high voltage current and cuts off
the fuel pump; your vehicle can no longer be
started.

Never touch, dismantle, remove or
replace the high voltage parts, orange
cables or connectors, even in the event
of an accident.

Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter,
a device which helps to reduce the level of
harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.
You must switch off the
engine


by stopping the
hybrid system (the Ready
lamp must be off) to avoid
any automatic restart of the
engine while refuelling.

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.
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.
t
h
e 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 P
e

uge
Ot
dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable for the fuel
pumps in the country in which you want to
travel.
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.

biofuels which conform to current and future
eu
ropean standards (Diesel fuel which
complies with standard
e
N 5
90 mixed with
a biofuel which complies with standard
eN

14214) available at the pumps (containing
up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl
e
s

th

e B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel
engines; however, this use is subject to strict
application of the special servicing conditions
indicated in the warranty and maintenance
record. Contact a P
