Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached
this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel. There remains
approximately 5 litres of fuel in
the tank. When the warning lamp
flashes, there is ver y little fuel left .
The key cannot be removed from the
lock until the cap is refitted.
Removing the filler cap may cause an
inrush of air. This vacuum is per fectly
normal and results from the sealing of
the system.
Fuel tank
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres.
Refuelling
To fill the tank safely:
F t he engine must be switched off,
F

o
pen the fuel filler flap 1 ,
F

i
nsert the key in the cap 2 , then turn it to
the left,
F

r
emove the cap and hook it onto the clip
located on the inside of the flap 3 ,
F

f
ill the tank, but do not continue after the
3rd cut- off of the pump ; this could cause
malfunctions.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer to the
"Running out of fuel - Diesel" section.
A self-adhesive label on the inner face of the
filler flap reminds you of the type of fuel to use
depending on your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.

Diesel
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the fixed
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a warning message
in the screen (if a display screen is
fitted).
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burnt" smell, which
is normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or the environment.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at
least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp
goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a
low additive level.
To p p i n g - u p
This additive must be topped up by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Diesel additive
A low additive level is indicated by
illumination of the service warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message in the
screen (if a display screen is fitted).
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
cuts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
Particle filter
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
the engine of your vehicle, you must
have the fuel tank drained and filled
with the correct fuel before star ting
the engine.

To p p i n g - u p
If any AdBlue® fluid is split or splashed
on to you, wash immediately with cold
water or wipe yourself with a clean
damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it
off using a sponge and hot water.
Precautions to take
Use only AdBlue® additive that meets
the ISO 22241 standard.
The AdBlue
® additive is an urea-based
solution.
This liquid is non-flammable, colourless and
odourless.
To be kept in a cool area. After filling the additive tank, observe the
following procedure:
-

S
witch on the ignition without starting.
-

W
ait 10 seconds before starting the engine.
Never dispose of empty AdBlue®
containers and bottles in the household
waste.
Place them in a special container provided
for this purpose or take them to your dealer.
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on a flat and
level surface.
Parking
F Switch off the ignition and remove the key.
In the event of an over flow, wipe around the
filler mouth using a damp cloth.
In wintry conditions, ensure that
the temperature of the vehicle is
above -11°C. Other wise, by freezing,
the AdBlue
® cannot be poured into its
tank. Park your vehicle in a warmer
area for a few hours to allow the top-up
to be carried out.

Practical information

208_en_Chap07_informations-pratiques_ed01-2016
Important: in the event of a top-up
after a breakdown because of a lack
of additive , signalled by the message
"Top up emissions additive: Starting
prevented", you must wait around
5
minutes before switching on the ignition,
without opening the driver's door,
locking the vehicle or introducing the
key into the ignition switch .
Switch on the ignition, then, after
10


seconds, start the engine.
Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of
children, in its original container.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity.
Never dilute the additive with water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel
fuel tank.
Never store containers or bottles of
AdBlue
® in your vehicle.
Recommendations on
storage
The SCR system includes an AdBlue®
tank heater that ensures operation of
the vehicle in normal conditions.
In exceptional situations, such as when
the vehicle is kept at temperatures
below -15°C (5°F) for a long period,
there may be an emission fault alert
related to freezing of the AdBlue
®
additive.
Park the vehicle in an area at a more
moderate temperature for a few hours
until the additive becomes a liquid
again.
The emissions warning lamp does not
go off immediately, but does so after a
few miles of driving.
Freezing of the AdBlue®
additive
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C (12.2° F)
a
nd deteriorates above 25°C (77°F).
It is recommended that containers and
bottles be stored in a cool area and
protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the additive can
be kept for at least a year.
Additive that has been frozen can be used
once it has thawed out in ambient air.

Disconnecting the battery
It is recommended that the battery be
disconnected if the vehicle is not to be used
for a very long period, so as to maintain an
adequate state of charge for starting the
engine.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F
c
lose all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof),
F

s
witch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting...),
F

s
witch off the ignition and then wait
four


minutes.
At the battery, simply detach the (+) terminal.
The Stop & Start system may not be
operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous
period of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the ambient
temperature and the state of charge of
the battery (up to about 8 hours).
Following reconnection of the
battery
Following reconnection of the battery, switch on
the ignition and wait 1 minute before starting to
permit initialisation of the electronic systems.
However, if problems remain following this
operation, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must yourself reinitialise (depending on
version):
-
