There is a fault with the engine
lubrication system. You must stop as soon it is safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Battery charge *fixed. The battery charging circuit has a
fault (dirty or loose terminals, slack or
cut alternator belt, ...). The warning lamp should go off when the engine is
started.
If it does not go off, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Low fuel level
fixed with the needle
in the red zone. There remains approximately 5 litres
of fuel in the tank.
At this point, you begin to use the fuel
reserve. Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out of
fuel.
This warning lamp will come on every time the ignition
is switched on, until a sufficient addition of fuel is
made.
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres
.
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel, as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.

needle in the red
zone.
There remains very little fuel in the
tank.
Under-inflation fixed. The pressure in one or more wheels
is too low. Check the pressure of the tyres as soon as possible.
This check should preferably be carried out when the
tyres are cold.
+ flashing then fixed,

Service warning lamp.
The tyre pressure monitoring system
has a fault or no sensor is detected
on one of the wheels. Under-inflation detection is not assured.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Servicing
The vehicle's odometer is displayed in area A
of the display screen and the trip recorder in
area B. -
i t remains displayed if the service is
overdue,
The service indicator does not appear if it is
more than 2 000 miles (3 000 km) before the
next service is due.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions only
(depending on the country of sale), the
degree of deterioration of the engine oil
is also taken into account.
This is a countdown between the intervals
given in the manufacturer's service schedule.
It is calculated from the last reset of
the service indicator, according to the
mileage covered and the time elapsed
since the last service. The service indicator appears when
approaching a servicing point:
-

i
t indicates the distance before the next
service is due,
-

i
t displays the servicing interval in

Trip recorder reset
If you have to disconnect the battery
following this operation, lock the vehicle
and wait at least 5 minutes for the reset
to be registered.
Resetting the service indicator
After each service, the service indicator must
be reset to zero.
If you have carried out the service on your
vehicle yourself:

the button; the spanner disappears.
AdviceFor BlueHDi Diesel versions, this
alert is also accompanied by the fixed
illumination of the Service warning
lamp, when the ignition is switched on.
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depending
on the driving conditions.
Therefore, the spanner may also come
on if you have exceeded the period
since the last service, indicated in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
spanner can also come on early,
according to the degree of deterioration
of the engine oil. The deterioration
of the engine oil depends on the
conditions in which the vehicle is used.

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:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter 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,
passenger compartment filter...) and observe the schedule of
operations recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle
becomes polluting; go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay to have the emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to
the legal level.
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.

Practical information157

Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with
E10 bio-petrol (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.
Fuel used for Diesel
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with
biofuels available at the pumps which meet
current and future European standards:
-
D
iesel fuel that meets standard EN 590
mixed with a biofuel that meets standard
EN 14214,
-

D
iesel fuel that meets standard EN 16734
mixed with a biofuel that meets standard
EN
14214 (possibly containing up to 10 %
Fatty Acid Methyl Ester),
-

P
araffinic Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN
15940 mixed with a biofuel that meets
standard EN
14214 (possibly containing up
to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester). The use of B20 or B30 fuel meeting standard
EN
16709 is possible in your Diesel engines.
However, this use, even occasional, requires
strict application of the special servicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".
For more information, 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).
Only the use of Diesel fuel additives that meet
the standard B715000 is authorised.
