Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items at the back 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.

Eco-driving

Retrieving the service
information
The ser vice information can be
accessed via the "Check/Diagnostics "
button in the Driving/Vehicle menu of
the touch screen.
Engine oil level indicator
(Depending on version.)
On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the state of the engine oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds after switching the ignition on, after
the servicing information.
The level read will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30 minutes.
Low oil level
This is indicated by the display of a message
prompting you to top up, accompanied by the
Service warning lamp and an audible signal.
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 " Oil
level measurement invalid " message 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 red 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 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.
Instruments

25
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 the ignition is switched on, no
information on range is displayed automatically. The range information can be
accessed via the Check/Diagnostics
button in the Driving/Vehicle menu of
the touch screen.
Remaining range between 1,500 and
500

miles (2,400 and 800

km) Remaining range between 500 and 62 miles
(800 and 100
km)
Remaining range less than 62 miles (100 km)
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 related to a lack of AdBlue
®
TheAdBlue® tank is empty: the starting
inhibition 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 comes on for about thirty seconds,
accompanied by a message ("Top up AdBlue:
Starting impossible in x miles") indicating
the remaining range expressed in miles or
kilometres.
The reser ve level has been reached; it is
recommended that you top up as soon as
possible. When switching on the ignition, this

warning
lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal (1 beep) and the display of a message
("Top up AdBlue: Starting impossible in
x miles") indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres.
When driving, the audible signal and the
message display are triggered every 62 miles
(100 km) until the level 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. When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp flashes, accompanied by 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
(1,10 0 k m)
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 faultIf it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after
self-diagnosis of the SCR system.
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
emissions control system persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition.
You should go to 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
inhibits engine starting.
To be able to start the engine, you must call on
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
These warning lamps come on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of the
message "Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered when driving when the
fault is detected for the first time, then when
switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists.
If a fault with the SCR 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, accompanied by


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".
Manual test
This function allows you to check certain
indicators and display the alerts log. It can be accessed via the Check/
Diagnostics
button in the Driving/
Vehicle menu of the touch screen.
If necessary, the following information is
displayed in the instrument panel:
-
t
he engine oil level,
-
w
hen the next ser vice is due,
-
t
he driving range for the AdBlue and the
SCR system for BlueHDi Diesel versions,
-
c
urrent alerts.
Distance recorder
The total mileage is displayed for thirty seconds
when the ignition is switched off, when the
driver's door is opened and when the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
When travelling abroad, you may have to
change the distance units (km or miles):
the display of road speed must be in the
official units for the country (km/h or mph).
The change of units is done via the screen
configuration menu, with the vehicle
stationary. This information is also displayed
automatically every time the ignition is
switched on.
