2018 Peugeot 308 fuel pump

170
Fuel tank
Tank capacity: about 53 litres (or 45 litres
depending on the version).
Opening
Refilling
At least 6 litres of fuel must be added, in order
t o be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler cap may create a noise
caused by an inrush of air. This is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of the fuel
system. F

the correct fuel type for your vehicle's
engine (see a reminder label on the inside
of the filler flap).
F

T
urn the filler cap to the left.
Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter,
a device which helps to reduce the level of
harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, you must use unleaded
fuel.
The filler neck is narrower, admitting petrol
nozzles only.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have the tank
drained and refilled with the correct
fuel before you star t the engine.
For the Puretech 225 S&S EAT8 engine, the
use of RON98 lead-free petrol is recommended
to guarantee optimum operation of the engine.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the tank is
reached, this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel, accompanied
by an audible warning and a message.

Practical information

171
When it first comes on, less than 6 litres of fuel
r emain in the tank.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
Fuel cut- of f
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
cuts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Diesel misfuel prevention
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It helps
avoid the risk of engine damage that can result
from filling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the filler cap
is removed. It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill the
t a n k s l ow l y.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in
direct contact with the flap of the misfuel
prevention device.Driving abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Not all Diesel vehicles are fitted with
misfuel protection, so before travelling
abroad, we recommend that you check
with the PEUGEOT dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable for the
fuel pumps in the country in which you
intend to travel.
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
Diesel tank, it comes into contact with the flap.
The system remains closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.

Practical information

189
The AdBlue® is contained in
a special tank holding about
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 empty.
Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a system
r
equired by regulations prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR system is faulty, 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 travelling the distance
of 685

miles (1,100 km), a system will be
triggered automatically to prevent the
engine from 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
®
AdBlue® 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.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® is
topped up as soon as the first alert is
issued indicating that the reser ve level has
been reached.
In order to ensure that the SCR system
operates correctly:
-

U

se only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the
ISO 22241 standard.
-

N

ever transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity.
-

N

ever dilute AdBlue
® with water.
You can obtain AdBlue
® from a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop. You can also visit a ser vice station
equipped with AdBlue
® pumps specially
designed for passenger vehicles (for those
versions with access to the AdBlue
® tank
via the fuel filler flap).
Never top up from an AdBlue
® dispenser
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Recommendations on
storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It should 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 keep AdBlue
® containers in your
vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This liquid
is non-flammable, colourless and odourless
(when kept in a cool place).

Running out of fuel
(Diesel)
On vehicles fitted with Diesel engines, the fuel
system must be primed if you run out of fuel.
For all versions other than BlueHDi, refer to the
corresponding engine compartment view.
For more information on Diesel misfuel
prevention , refer to the corresponding
section.
If the engine does not start first time, do
not keep trying, but start the procedure
again from the beginning.
