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, etc.). 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.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin filter, etc.) and
obser ve the schedule of operations in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
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 1,900
miles (3,000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average. With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes
polluting. As soon as possible, visit a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to
make your vehicle's level of nitrogen oxides
emissions compliant to the standard.

Service warning lamp.
The tyre pressure monitoring
system has a fault or no sensor
is detected on one of the wheels. Under-inflation detection is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
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.

Front passenger
airbag Fixed, in the seat belt
and front passenger
airbag warning lamps
display. The control switch, located in the
glove box, has been placed in the
ON
position.
The front passenger airbag is
activated. In this case, do not install a rear ward facing child seat
on this seat.
Move the control switch to the OFF
position to
deactivate the front passenger airbag. In this case, you
may install a rear ward facing child seat, unless there is
a fault with the airbags (airbag warning lamp on).
Low fuel level Fixed, with reser ve level
shown in red, with the
display of a message and
an audible signal. When it first comes on there
remains approximately 6
litres
of fuel 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, accompanied by a message and an
audible signal, until a sufficient addition of fuel is
made.
This audible signal and message are repeated with
increasing frequency as the fuel level drops and
approaches "
0".
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 53
litres.
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.
Engine
diagnostic
system Flashing.
The engine management system
has a fault. There is a risk that the catalytic converter will be
destroyed.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Fixed. The emission control system has
a fault. The warning lamp should go off when the engine is
started.
If it does not go off, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop without delay.

If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
avoid damage to the engine.
For more information on Checking levels,
refer to the corresponding section.
Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by the display of the message
"Oil level measurement invalid" in the
instrument panel.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of a fault with the electric
indicator, the oil level is no longer
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check
the engine oil level using the manual
dipstick located under the bonnet.
For more information on Checking
levels , refer to the corresponding
section.
Engine coolant
temperature gauge
With the engine running:
- i n zone A , the temperature is correct,
-

i
n zone B , the temperature is too high; this
warning lamp and the central STOP warning
lamp come on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal.
You MUST stop as soon as it is safe to do
so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off the
engine.
After first switching off the ignition, open
the bonnet cautiously and check the
coolant level. For more information on Checking levels
,
refer to the corresponding section.
AdBlue® range indicators
These range indicators are present only on
BlueHDi Diesel versions.
Once the AdBlue
® tank is on reser ve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of the risk of non-
starting related to a lack of
AdBlue
®
The engine starting prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is
e m pt y.
Range greater than 1,500

miles (2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of range in the instrument
panel.

indicating the remaining range expressed in
miles or kilometres.
When driving, this message is displayed every
30 seconds until the AdBlue level has been
topped up.
It is essential to top up as soon as possible and
before the tank is completely empty; other wise
it will not be possible to restart the engine after
the next stop.
Remaining range less than 60
miles (100 km)
(with 1.5
BlueHDi 130 S&S and 2.0 BlueHDi
180
S&S engines)
When driving, the audible signal and the
message display are triggered every 6
miles
(10
km) until the AdBlue tank is topped up.
It is essential to top up as soon as possible and
before the tank is completely empty; other wise
it will not be possible to restart the engine after
the next stop. Breakdown due to a lack of AdBlue®
The AdBlue® tank is empty: the starting
prevention system required by legislation
prevents starting of the engine.
To be able to restart the engine, it is
essential to add at least 5
litres of AdBlue
®
to its tank.
For more information on AdBlue
®
(BlueHDi engines) , and, in particular,
on topping up, refer to the corresponding
section.
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of the message "Top up
AdBlue: Starting impossible".
In the event of a fault with the
SCR emissions control system
A system that prevents engine starting is
activated automatically from 685
miles
(1,100
km) after confirmation of a fault with
the SCR emissions control system.
Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as
possible.
In the event of the detection of a fault
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after self-diagnostic checks of the SCR
emissions control system.
These warning lamps come on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of the
"Emissions fault" message.
The alert is triggered while driving as soon
as the fault is detected for the first time, then
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists.
When switching on the ignition, this

warning
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible
signal (1

beep) and the display of a message
(e.g. "Top up AdBlue: Starting impossible
in x miles") indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres.

During the permitted driving phase
(between 685 and 0 miles (1,100 and 0 km))
While driving, the message is displayed every
30
seconds while the fault with the SCR system
persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition.
You should contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise you will not be able to restart the vehicle.
Starting prevented You have exceeded the authorised driving
limit: the starting prevention system does
not allow the engine to be started.
To be able to restart the engine, you must call
on a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If a fault with the SCR emissions control system
is confirmed (after 31 miles (50 km) covered with
the permanent display of the message signalling
a fault), these warning lamps come on and the
AdBlue warning lamp flashes, associated with
an audible signal and the display of a message
(e.g. "Emissions fault: Starting prevented in
200


miles") indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres.
Each time the ignition is switched on, these
warning lamps come on and the AdBlue
warning lamp flashes, accompanied by an
audible signal and the display of the message
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented".
