16709 is possible in your Diesel engines.
However, this use, even occasional, requires
strict application of the special servicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".
For more information, contact a P

ealer or a qualified workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).
on

ly the use of Diesel fuel additives that meet
the standard B715000 is authorised.
It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill
the tank but this must be done slowly.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can
in direct contact with the flap of the
misfuel prevention device.Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be different
in other countries, the presence of the misfuel
prevention device may make refuelling
impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we recommend that
you check with the P
e

ugeo
T d
ealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable for the fuel
pumps in the country in which you want to
travel.

Snow chains

traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.The snow chains must be fitted only to
the front wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised.Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
