2019 Peugeot 208 adblue

117
AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines)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 (1.6

BlueHDi engines) or
15

litres (1.5

BlueHDi engines).
Its capacity allows a

driving range of around
5,600

miles (9,000

km), which may vary
considerably depending on your driving style.
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. 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 a
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, or the Indicators , refer to the
corresponding sections. 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.
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.

Practical information

118
You can also visit a ser vice station
eq uipped with AdBlue® pumps specially
designed for private 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 below 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 fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has
completely thawed out at room temperature.
Never keep bottles or containers of
AdBlue
® in your vehicle.
Precautions for use
eyes with large amounts of water or with an eye
wash solution for at least 15 minutes. If you feel
a
persistent burning sensation or irritation, get
medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (at high temperature,
for example), the risk of release of ammonia
cannot be excluded: do not inhale the vapour.
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.
Procedure
Before starting the top up procedure, ensure
that the vehicle is parked on a flat and level
sur face.
In winter, check that the temperature of the
vehicle is above -11°C. If not, due to freezing,
the AdBlue
® cannot be poured into the tank.
Park your vehicle somewhere warmer for a few
hours before topping up.
AdBlue
® is a urea-based solution. This liquid
is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless
(when kept in a
cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and water. In the event
of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate) the
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
d
ealer or a

qualified workshop.
Practical information

119
In the event of an AdBlue® breakdown,
confirmed by the message "Add AdBlue:
Starting impossible", you must top up with
at least 5

litres.
Never pour AdBlue
® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
For the specifics associated with the
access configuration for the AdBlue
® tank
(via the boot or via the fuel filler flap), refer
to the descriptions given in detail further
on.
If any AdBlue
® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the side of the body, rinse
immediately with cold water or wipe with
a

damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off
using a

sponge and hot water.
Important: when topping up after
a breakdown due to running out
of AdBlue, you must wait for at least
5
minutes before switching on the ignition
again, without opening the driver's
door, unlocking the vehicle or inser ting
the key in the switch.
Switch on the ignition, then after
a
minimum of 10 seconds, start the engine.
F Switch off the ignition and remove the key from the switch to switch off the engine.
Access through the boot
(1.6 BlueHDi Euro 6.1)

Refilling
F Obtain an AdBlue® container or bottle. After
first checking the use-by date, read the
instructions on the label carefully before
pouring the contents of the container or
bottle into your vehicle's AdBlue tank.

the nozzle.
-
I

f your vehicle's AdBlue
® tank is
