2017 PEUGEOT 5008 Owners Manual

263
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.
Freezing of the AdBlue
®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue
driving in all weather conditions.
Topping up with AdBlue®
Before topping up, please read the
following warnings carefully.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This liquid
is non-flammable, colourless and odourless
(store in a cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and running water. In
the event of contact with the eyes, immediately
rinse 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 exterior temperature,
for example), the risk of releasing ammonia
cannot be discounted: do not inhale the fluid.
Ammonia vapour has an irritant effect on
mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat). Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of children,
in its original container or bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity.
Never dilute AdBlue
® with water.
Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
Containers are available from a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. Use only AdBlue
® liquid that meets the
ISO 22241
standard.

Practical information

264
Never top up from an AdBlue® dispenser
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes below around -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended
that bottles or containers be stored in a cool
place and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it
has completely thawed out.
Never store containers or bottles of
AdBlue
® in your vehicle.
Do not dispose of AdBlue
® bottles or
containers in the household waste.
Place them in a container provided
for this purpose or take them to your
dealer.
Procedure
In cold weather, before per forming the top-up
ensure that the temperature of the vehicle is
above -11°C. Other wise the AdBlue
® may be
frozen and so cannot be poured into its tank.
Park your vehicle in a warmer area for a few
hours to allow the top-up to be carried out.

Important
Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
To prevent causing the AdBlue tank to
over flow, it is recommended that you top it
up with between 10

and 13 litres.
If your vehicle's AdBlue tank is completely
empty – which is confirmed by the alert
messages and the impossibility of starting
the engine – you must add at least 4
litres.If any AdBlue
® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the side of the body, rinse
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off
using a sponge and hot water.
