Compatibility of fuels
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with biofuels
that conform to current and future European
standards and which can be obtained from
filling stations:Petrol that meets standard EN228,
mixed with a
biofuel that meets
standard EN15376.
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 which 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, etc.) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
syste m). The only Diesel additives authorised
for use are those that meet the
B715000
standard.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0°C (+32°F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel
fuels could result in 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.
Travelling abroad
Cer tain fuels could damage the engine of
your vehicle.
In cer tain countries, the use of a par ticular
fuel may be required (specific octane
rating, specific trade name, etc.) to ensure
correct operation of the engine.
For any additional information, contact a
dealer.
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590
mixed with a
biofuel that meets
standard EN14214
(possibly containing
up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester), 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).
B20
or B30
fuel that meets the standard
EN16709
can be used with your Diesel
engine. However, the use of this
fuel, even occasional, requires strict
application of the special ser vicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous
conditions".
Practical information
124
Do not exceed the speed of 50 mph
( 80 km/h) when driving with a tyre repaired
using this type of kit.
Checking/adjusting tyre
pressures
You can also use the compressor,
without injecting sealant, to check and, if
necessary, adjust the tyre pressures.

at position " I" and adjust the pressure to the
value shown on the vehicle's tyre pressure

located on the compressor pipe, near the
valve connection.
