Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,
as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer...). Preferably use a roof
box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and
refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold,
referring to the label in the door aperture,
driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan. Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, etc.) and observe the
schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.
When filling the tank, do not continue after the
3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after the first 1,800 miles (3,000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

Service indicator
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the degree
of deterioration of the engine oil is also
taken into account (depending on the
country of sale).
When the ignition is switched on, no service
information appears in the screen.
More than 1,800 miles (3,000 km)
remain before the next service
is due Between 600 miles (1,000 km)
and 1,800 miles (3,000 km) remain
before the next service is due
The spanner symbolising the service
operations illuminates for 5 seconds when the
ignition is switched on. The distance recorder
display line indicates the distance remaining
before the next service is due.
Example:
You have 1,700 miles (2,800 km) left
before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the screen indicates:
Less than 600 miles (1,000 km) remain
before the next service is due
Example: You have 560 miles (900 km) left
before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the screen indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the total distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The servicing spanner remains on
as a reminder that a service is required soon.
System which informs the driver when the
next service is due, in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last reset of the service
indicator, according to the mileage covered and
the time elapsed since the last service.
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the spanner goes off
; the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation. The screen then
indicates the total distance.

The servicing interval has been
exceeded
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the spanner flashes to indicate that the service
must be carried out as soon as possible.
Example: the service is overdue by 186 miles
(3 0 0 k m).
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the screen indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the total distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The spanner remains on .
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, this alert
is also accompanied by the continuous
illumination of the Service warning light
when the ignition is switched on. The remaining mileage may be weighted
by time according to the driver’s driving
habits.
The spanner may therefore also come
on if you have exceeded the period
since the last service, as indicated in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the spanner
may also come on early, depending on the
degree of deterioration of the engine oil
(depending on the country of sale).
The degree of deterioration of the engine
oil depends on the driving conditions in
which the vehicle is used.
Resetting the service indicator
After each service, the service indicator must
be reset to zero.
To do so, follow this procedure:
F

S
witch off the ignition.
F

P
ress the trip distance recorder reset
button and keep it pressed.
F

S
witch on the ignition; the distance
recorder display begins a countdown.
F

W
hen the display indicates =0, release the
button; the spanner disappears.
Following this step, if you wish to
disconnect the battery, lock the vehicle
and wait at least five minutes for the reset
to be taken into account.
Retrieving the service
information
You can access the service information at any
time.
F
P
ress the trip distance recorder reset
button. The service information is
displayed for a few seconds, then
disappears.

Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with biofuels
that conform to current and future European
standards and can be obtained from filling
stations:Petrol that meets the EN228 standard,
mixed with a bio-fuel meeting the
EN15376 standard.
The only petrol additives authorised for
use are those that meet the B715001
standard.
Fuel used for Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with
biofuels that conform to current and future
European standards and can be obtained from
filling stations: For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer 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). The only Diesel additives authorised for
use are those that meet the B715000
standard.
The use of B20 or B30 fuel that meets
the standard EN16709 is possible
with your Diesel engine. However, this
use, even occasional, requires strict
application of the special servicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous
conditions". Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 10% Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester),
Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets
standard EN15940 mixed with a biofuel
that meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester).
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590 mixed with a biofuel that meets
standard EN14214 (possibly containing
up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester),Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage the engine of your
vehicle.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific sales name…) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
Far any additional information, contact the
dealer.
Compatibility of
fuels
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0°C (+32°F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type diesel
fuels could entail an abnormal operation
of the fuel supply circuit. To avoid this, we
recommend using winter-type diesel fuel and
keeping the fuel tank more than 50% full.
If, despite this, at temperatures below -15°C
(+5°F) the engine has problems starting,
just leave the vehicle in a garage or heated
workshop for a little while.
