Deactivation
When the ignition is on, this warning
lamp comes on in the instrument
panel while the airbag is deactivated.To assure your child's safety, you
must deactivate the passenger's front
airbag when you install a rear ward
facing child seat on the front passenger
seat. Otherwise, the child risks being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag is
deployed.
Reactivation
When you remove the rear ward facing child
seat, with the ignition on
, turn the switch to
the "ON" position to reactivate the airbag and
so assure the safety of your front passenger in
the event of an impact.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, you must contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay to have the
system checked. The airbags may no longer be
deployed in the event of a serious impact.
Only the passenger's front airbag can be
deactivated.

Lateral airbags
Deployment
A lateral airbag is deployed unilaterally in the
event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone B, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The lateral airbag inflates between the hip and
shoulder of the front occupant of the vehicle
and the corresponding door trim panel. System which protects the driver and front
passenger in the event of a serious side impact
in order to limit the risk of injury to the chest,
between the hip and the shoulder.
Each lateral airbag is fitted in the seat backrest
frame, door side.
Impact detection zones
A. Front impact zone.
B. Side impact zone.
Curtain airbags
System which contributes towards improving
the protection of the driver and passengers
(with the exception of the rear centre
passenger) in the event of a serious side
impact in order to limit the risk of injury to the
side of the head.
Each curtain airbag is built into the pillars and
the upper passenger compartment area. In the event of a minor impact or bump
on the side of the vehicle or if the
vehicle rolls over, the airbag may not be
deployed.
In the event of a rear or front collision,
the airbag is not deployed.
Deployment
The curtain airbag is deployed at the same
time as the corresponding lateral airbag in the
event of a serious side impact applied to all or
part of the side impact zone B, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag inflates between the front or
rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.
If this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, you must contact
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system checked. The
airbags may no longer be deployed in the event
of a serious impact.

Low fuel level
When the fuel tank minimum 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 remaining in the tank.
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.

AdBlue® and SCR system
for BlueHDi Diesel engines
To assure respect for the environment and
conformity with the new Euro 6 emissions
standard, without adversely affecting the
per formance or fuel consumption of Diesel
engines, PEUGEOT has taken the decision to
equip its vehicles with an effective system that
associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction)
with a particle filter (FAP) for the treatment of
exhaust gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using a fluid called AdBlue® containing urea,
a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of nitrous
oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and water, which are
harmless to health and the environment. The AdBlue
® is held in a special tank with
a capacity of about 17 litres: this provides
a driving range of about 12 500 miles
(20

000

km), after which an alert is triggered
warning you when the reserve remaining is
enough for just 1 500 miles (2 400 km).
During each scheduled service of your vehicle
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop,
the AdBlue
® tank is refilled in order to allow
normal operation of the SCR system.
If the estimated mileage between two services
is greater than 12 500 miles (20 000 km), we
recommend that you go to a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop to have the necessary
top-up carried out. Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a
s
ystem required by regulations prevents
starting of the engine.
If the SCR

is faulty, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no
longer meet the Euro 6 standard: your
vehicle becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault
with the SCR system, you must go
to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible: after a
running distance of 650 miles
(1 100 km), a system will be triggered
automatically to prevent engine starting.

When switching on the ignition, this warning
l amp comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of a message (e.g.: "Top
up emissions additive: Starting prevented in
900 miles") indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres.
When driving, the message is displayed every
200 miles (300 km) until the fluid has been
topped-up.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the AdBlue
® topped-up.
You can also top-up the tank yourself.
For more information on topping-up the
AdBlue
®, refer to the corresponding section.
Remaining range between 350 and 1500 miles (600 and 2 400 km)Remaining range between 0 and 350 miles (0 and 600 km)Breakdown related to a lack of AdBlue®
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of a message (e.g. "Top
up emissions additive: Starting prevented in
350 miles") indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres.
When driving, the message is displayed every
30 seconds until the fluid has been topped-up.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the AdBlue
® topped-up.
You can also top-up the tank yourself.
Other wise you will not be able to restart your
engine. To be able to start the engine,
we recommend that you call on a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for the top-up required.
If you carry out the top-up yourself, it
is essential to add at least 3.8 litres of
AdBlue
® to the tank.
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of the message "Top up
emissions additive: Starting prevented".
The AdBlue
® tank is empty: the system required
by regulations prevents engine starting.
For more information on topping-up
the AdBlue
®, refer to the corresponding
section.

In the event of the detection
of a fault
In the event of a fault with the SCR emissions control system
During an authorised driving phase (between
650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)
A system that prevents engine starting
is activated automatically from
650

miles (1 100 km) after confirmation
of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system. Have the system
checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after self-diagnosis of the SCR system.
These warning lamps comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of the
message "Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered when driving when the
fault is detected for the first time, then when
switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists.
If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed
(after 30 miles (50 km) covered with the
permanent display of the message signalling
a fault), these warning lamps come on,
accompanied by an audible signal and the
display of a message (e.g.: "Emissions fault:
Starting prevented in 150 miles") indicating
the remaining range expressed in miles or
kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every
30 seconds while the fault with the SCR system
persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition.
You should go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise, you will not be able to restart your
engine.

Starting preventedYou have exceeded the authorised
driving limit: the starting prevention
system inhibits engine starting. Freezing of the AdBlue®
Every time the ignition is switched on, these
warning lamps come on, accompanied by an
audible signal and the display of the message
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented".
To be able to start the engine, you must call on
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. AdBlue
® freezes at temperatures below
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater
for the AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to
continue driving in very cold conditions.
