BLUEHDI
AND A D B LUE
® ADDITIVE
The technology
AdBlue® is the brand name of the
solution needed for operation of the
SCR system. BlueHDi vehicles have a specific
AdBlue
® additive tank with a capacity
of 17 litres.
It has an exterior filler with a blue filler
cap, located to the left of the Diesel
fuel filler cap.
Filling of the AdBlue
® tank can be
done using 5 or 10 litre containers,
1.89 litre bottles, or when at a fuel
filling station equipped with a special
AdBlue
® delivery pump for light
vehicles.
The objective of BlueHDi is to reduce
by up to 90% the emissions of NOx
(nitrous oxides) in the air
, using a
system that converts NOx into water
vapour and nitrogen in a dedicated
catalytic converter: SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction).
This objective meets the "Euro"
emissions standard adopted by the
European Union aimed at limiting the
emissions of pollutants from internal
combustion engines.
The BlueHDi generation of engines
allow the "Euro 6" European standard
to be met, with an extra tank to hold
the AdBlue
® fluid for the treatment of
exhaust gases.
This operation can also be carried
out by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Please note that the high delivery
pumps at some filling stations,
intended only for lorries and coaches,
are not suitable for cars or light
commercial vehicles.
Never use these pumps.
