Dynamic
stability control
(DSC/ASR) Flashing.
Regulation by the system is active. The system optimises traction and allows improved
directional stability of the vehicle.
Fixed, associated
with illumination of
the indicator lamp
in the deactivation
button, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a
message.The DSC/ASR or hill start assist
system has a
fault.Have it checked in the dealer network or by
a


qualified workshop.
Low fuel level Fixed. When it first comes on, around
5
litres of fuel remain in the tank.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.
Tank capacity: approximately 50


litres (petrol)
or 46
litres (Diesel); (depending on version:
approximately 30
litres (petrol or Diesel)).
Never drive until completely empty, this could damage
the emissions control and injection systems.
Airbags Temporarily on. This warning lamp comes on for
a
few seconds when you turn on the
ignition, then goes off.
This warning lamp should go off when the engine is started.
If it does not go off, contact the dealer network or a qualified
workshop.
Fixed. One of the airbag or seat belt
pyrotechnic pretensioner systems
has a


fault. Have it checked in the dealer network or by
a
qualified workshop.

Fuel tank
Capacity of the tank:
- Pe trol: approximately 30 or 50 litres
(depending on version).
-

D
iesel: approximately 30 or 46 litres
(depending on version).
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached
in the fuel tank, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel.
When it is first lit, approximately
5
litres of fuel remain in the tank.
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out.
If you have put the wrong fuel in your
vehicle, you must have the fuel tank
drained and filled with the correct fuel
before star ting the engine.
Refilling
A self-adhesive label on the inner face of the
filler flap reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 7 litres, in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge. With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key.
To refuel in complete safety:
F
Y
ou must switch off the engine.
F
O
pen the filler flap.
F
I
ntroduce the key into the filler cap and turn
it to the left, Opening the filler cap may create a noise
caused by an inrush of air. This vacuum is
entirely normal, resulting from the sealing
of the fuel system.
Once you have finished refuelling:
F
R
efit the filler cap.
F
T
urn the key to the right, then remove it from
the cap.
F
C
lose the fuel filler flap.
The key cannot be removed from the lock
until the cap is refitted.
F
R
emove the filler cap and hook it onto the
lug located on the inside of the filler flap. F

F
ill up the tank completely, but do not
continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle;
this could cause malfunctions.
Misfuel prevention
(Diesel)
(Depending on the country of sale.)
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids
the risk of engine damage that can result from
filling with the wrong fuel.

Practical information

Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
Unless there is a
leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact the dealer
network or a
qualified workshop. Only use products recommended by
DS
AUTOMOBILES or products of
equivalent quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in
the braking system, DS AUTOMOBILES
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)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6
standard,
without adversely affecting the performance
or fuel consumption of diesel engines,
DS
AUTOMOBILES has taken the decision to
equip its vehicles with a
system that combines
SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) with
a
diesel particle filter (DPF) for the treatment of
exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of
the oxides of nitrogen (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
During each scheduled ser vice of your vehicle
in the dealer network or a

qualified workshop,
the AdBlue
® tank is refilled in order to allow
normal operation of the SCR system.
If the estimated distance travelled between
two ser vices is greater than 12,500
miles
(20,000

km), it will be necessary to top up the
AdBlue
®.
The AdBlue
® is contained in a special tank
w
ith a
capacity of around 17 litres: its capacity
offers a

driving range of around 12,500 miles
(20,000

km) before triggering an alert system
that warns you when you can drive for a
further
1,500

miles (2,400 km).
07
Practical information

160
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 the dealer
network 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
and indicator lamps and the associated
alerts, refer to the corresponding section.
Freezing of the AdBlue
® additive
The AdBlue® additive freezes at
temperatures below around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a
heater for the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue
driving in very cold conditions.
Topping up with AdBlue®
Filling the AdBlue® tank is an operation
included in every routine ser vice on your
vehicle by the dealer network or a
qualified
workshop.
Nevertheless, given the capacity of the tank,
it may be necessary to top up the AdBlue
®
between ser vices, more particularly if an alert
(warning lamps and a


message) signals the
requirement.
You can go to a

member of the dealer network
or a


qualified workshop.
If you envisage topping up yourself, please
read the following recommendations and
warnings carefully.
Precautions for use
In certain conditions (high exterior temperature,
for example), the risk of ammonia being
released cannot be excluded: do not inhale
the vapours. Ammonia 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.
AdBlue
® is a urea-based solution. This fluid
is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless
(stored 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. Use only AdBlue
® liquid that meets the
ISO
22241
standard.
