Warning/indicator lampStateCause Action/Observations
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
o n).
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 56
litres.
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.

Once the state of charge of the battery drops
to the reser ve level, the system switches to
energy economy mode: the power supply is
cut off automatically to preser ve the remaining
battery charge.Switching off the engine leads to a
loss of
braking assistance.
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key
or the remote control, which would weigh
down on its blade in the ignition switch
and could cause a


malfunction.
Starting the engine
Parking brake applied:
F W ith a manual gearbox , place the gear
lever in neutral then depress the clutch
pedal fully.

selector in mode N or P then depress the
brake pedal fully.

nlock the steering column by
simultaneously turning the steering and the
key. In certain cases, you may have to apply
significant force to move the steering
wheel (wheels on full lock, for example).
F
With a petrol engine
, o perate the starter
motor by turning the key to position 3 without
pressing the accelerator pedal, until the
engine starts. Once the engine is running,
release the key.
With petrol engines , after a cold start,
preheating the catalytic converter can
cause clearly-felt engine vibrations when
stationary, with the engine running, for
anything up to two minutes (accelerated
idle speed).
F

W
ith a Diesel engine , turn the key to
position 2 , ignition on, to operate the engine
pre-heating system.
Wait until this warning lamp goes off
in the instrument panel then operate
the starter motor by turning the key
to position 3
without pressing the
accelerator pedal, until the engine
starts. Once the engine is running,
release the key. In wintry conditions, the warning lamp
can stay on for a
longer period. When the
engine is hot, the warning lamp does not
come on.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition. Wait a few moments
before operating the starter motor again.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, do not keep trying: you risk
damaging the starter motor or the engine.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In temperate conditions, do not let the
engine idle to warm up but move off
straight away and drive at moderate
speed.

The presence of the Keyless Entry and
Starting electronic key in the recognition
zone is essential.
If the electronic key is not detected in this
zone, a message is displayed.
Move the electronic key into this zone so
that the engine can be started.
If there is still a
problem, refer to the "Key
not detected – Back-up starting" section.

Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres,
wheel rotation, ground clearance and the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, PEUGEOT 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 per formance or fuel
consumption of Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a
system that associates 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 nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
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
required 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 preventing
the engine starting will be triggered
automatically.
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.
