tank is completely empty - which is
confirmed by the alert messages and
the impossibility of starting the engine,
you must add at least 3.8 litres
(so two 1.89 litre bottles).

12 V battery
Procedure for starting the engine using another
battery or charging a discharged battery.
General points
Lead-acid starter batteries
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried
out only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If you have an electronic or automatic
gearbox, never try to start the engine by
pushing the vehicle.
Batteries contain harmful substances
such as sulphuric acid and lead.
They must be disposed of in
accordance with regulations and must
not, in any circumstances, be discarded
with household waste.
Take used remote control batteries and
vehicle batteries to a special collection
point.
Protect your eyes and face before
handling the battery.
All operations on the battery must be
carried out in a well ventilated area and
away from naked flames and sources
of sparks, so as to avoid the risk of
explosion or fire.
Wash your hands afterwards.

Some functions, including Stop & Start,
are not available if the battery is not
sufficiently charged.
Starting using another
battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a slave battery
(external or on another vehicle) and jump lead
cables or a battery booster.Never try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Never use a 24 V or higher battery
b o o s t e r.
First check that the slave battery has a
nominal voltage of 12 V and a capacity
at least equal to that of the discharged
battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off the electrical consumers on
both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, ...).
Ensure that the jump lead cables do
not pass close to moving parts of the
engine (cooling fan, belts, ...).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal when
the engine is running.
The battery is located under the bonnet.
To gain access to it:
F

o

pen the bonnet using the interior release
lever, then the exterior safety catch,
F

s

ecure the bonnet stay,

accessible.
A remote earth point is located on the
front left-hand wheel arch.

cables from the battery A .
Disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state
of charge for starting the engine, it is
recommended that the battery be disconnected
if the vehicle is taken out of service for a long
period.
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition
before disconnecting the battery:
F

lose all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof),
F

minutes.
Having exposed the battery, it is only
necessary to disconnect the (+) terminal.
If you envisage charging your vehicle's
battery yourself, use only a charger
compatible with lead-acid batteries of a
nominal voltage of 12 V.
If this label is present, it is essential
to use only a 12 V charger, to avoid
causing irreversible damage to the
electrical components related to the
Stop & Start system.

Never try to charge a frozen battery.
If the battery has been frozen, have it
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop, who will check that
the internal components have not been
damaged and the casing is not cracked,
which could cause a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.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).
Quick-release terminal
Disconnecting the (+) cable
F Raise the lever D fully to release the cable terminal clamp E .
Do not apply excessive force on the
lever as locking will not be possible if
the clamp is not positioned correctly;
start the procedure again.
Before disconnecting the battery
Wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition
before disconnecting the battery.
Close the windows and the doors before
disconnecting the battery.
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:
-
t
he remote control key,
-

t
he on-board satellite navigation system.
Reconnecting the (+) cable
F Position the open clamp E of the cable on the positive post (+) of the battery.

System which manages the duration of use of certain functions to retain a sufficient level of charge
in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use functions such as the audio and telematics
system, windscreen wipers, dipped beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum
combined duration of about 30 minutes.
Electrical energy economy mode
Switching to economy
mode
Once this time has elapsed, a message
appears in the screen indicating that the
vehicle has switched to economy mode and the
active functions are put on standby.
If a telephone call is being made at this time, it
will be maintained for around 10 minutes with
the Bluetooth hands-free system of your audio
system.
Exiting economy mode
These functions are reactivated automatically
next time the vehicle is driven.
F

T
o restore these functions immediately,
start the engine and let it run for at least
5


minutes.
A flat battery prevents the engine from
starting (refer to the corresponding
section).
Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as the air conditioning,
the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check regularly that the terminals
are correctly tightened (versions without quick
release terminals) and that the connections
are clean.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of specific
technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out only by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Diesel
Particle filter
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.
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the warranty and maintenance record and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for details of
the replacement intervals for these
components.
Oil filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the warranty and
maintenance record for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
When carrying out any operation on the 12 V
battery, refer to the corresponding section for
details of the precautions to be taken before
starting work.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often
if necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours. 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).
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.
