bserving the manufacturer's
recommendations and fitting instructions
so as to avoid the risk of damaging the
body (deformation, scratches, ...). If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars
and the fixings on the roof.
Be sure to refer to national legislation in
order to comply with the regulations for
transporting objects which are longer
than the vehicle.With longitudinal bars
You must fit the transverse bars to the

Checks
12 V battery
the battery does not require any maintenance.
H owever, check that the terminals are clean
and correctly tightened, particularly in summer
and winter.Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this

t he Stop & Start system, indicates the use of
a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
technology and specification.

the battery.
Particle filter (Diesel)
the start of saturation of the particle
f ilter is indicated by the temporary
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message in the
multifunction screen.
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.
For more information on checking
levels, refer to the corresponding
section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is per fectly 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.
thi

or the environment.
unl

ess otherwise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's
service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a Peu
geOt d
ealer or a qualified workshop.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer
to the "12 V battery" section for details of the
precautions to be taken before disconnecting
the battery and following its reconnection. 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.

AdBlue® additive and SCR system

to assure respect for the environment and
c onformity with the new eur o 6 emissions
standard, without adversely affecting the

as 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 an additive 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
® additive is held in a special
tank located under the boot at the rear of
the vehicle. It has a capacity of 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 P
eu

ge
Ot d
ealer or a qualified workshop,
the AdBlue
® additive 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 P
eu

ge
Ot d
ealer
or a qualified workshop to have the necessary
top-up carried out. Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a
sy
stem 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
eur

o 6 standard: your
vehicle becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault
with the SCR system, you must go
to a P
eu

ge
Ot d

ealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible: after
a running distance of 650 miles
(1
1

00 km), a system will be triggered
automatically to prevent engine starting.

Topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Filling the AdBlue® tank is an operation
included in every routine service on your
vehicle by a P
eu

ge
Ot d
ealer or a qualified
workshop.
Nevertheless, given the capacity of the tank,
it may be necessary to top-up the additive
between services, more particularly if an alert
(warning lamps and a message) signals the
requirement.
You can got to a P
eu

ge
Ot d
ealer or a
qualified workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself, please
read the following warnings carefully.Precautions in use
Keep AdBlue® out of the reach of
children, in its original bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity.
use
only AdBlue
® additive that meets the
ISO 22241 standard.
Never dilute the additive with water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel
fuel tank.
the s

upply in a non-drip bottle simplifies
toping-up. You can obtain 1.89 litre (half a
uS
ga

llon) bottles from a P
eu
ge
Ot d
ealer or a
qualified workshop.
Never top-up from an AdBlue
®
dispenser reserved for heavy goods
vehicles.
the

AdBlue
® additive is an urea-based
solution. thi
s liquid is non-flammable,
colourless and odourless (kept in a cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash
the affected area with soap and water. In the
event of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate)
the eyes with large amounts of water or with
an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes.
If a burning sensation or irritation persists, get
medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high ambient
temperature, for example), the risk of release
of ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale
the product. Ammonia vapour has en irritant
effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and
throat).
Important
If your vehicle's AdBlue
® tank is
co
mpletely 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).
