Passenger's
airbag systemFixed.
The control switch, located in
the glove box, is set to the " OFF"
position.
The passenger's front airbag is
deactivated.
You can install a "rearward"
facing child seat, unless there is
a fault with the airbags (airbag
warning lamp on). To activate the passenger front airbag, turn the control
to the "
ON" position.
In this case, do not fit a child seat in the "rear ward"
facing position.
Min fuel level Fixed, with the needle
in the red zone. Approximately 5
litres of fuel
remain in the tank.
You are now starting to use the
fuel reserve. You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out of fuel.
This warning lamp will come on every time the ignition
is switched on, until sufficient fuel is added.
Capacity of the tank:
-


approximately 50
litres (petrol engines).
-


approximately 50
litres (Diesel engines).
-


approximately 45


litres (Diesel BlueHDi engines).
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel, as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.
Flashing with the
needle in the red zone.
Very little fuel remains in the
tank.
Foot on the
clutch Fixed.
In STOP mode of the Stop &
Start, the transition to START
mode has been rejected because
the clutch pedal is not fully
pressed down. With a manual gearbox, you must depress the clutch
fully to allow the change to engine START mode.

Practical information

Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
Checking this system must be done by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units
as important as those in the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and offers very
specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines)
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85%
of nitrogen oxide (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment. To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the new Euro 6 standard,
without adversely affecting the performance or
fuel consumption of Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle filter (DPF)
for the treatment of exhaust gases. The AdBlue
® is contained in a special tank with
a capacity of around 17 litres. An alert system
is triggered automatically once the reser ve
level is reached: you can then drive for a further
1,500

miles (2,400 km) before the tank is
emptied completely.
Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a system
required by regulations prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR system is defective, 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
685

miles (1,100

km), a system will be
triggered automatically to prevent engine
starting.
In either case, a range indicator gives you
the distance you can travel before the
vehicle is immobilised.
For more information on the warning
lamps and the associated alerts, refer to
the corresponding section.
