The additional heating system is powered
by the fuel in the vehicle's fuel tank.
Before use, ensure that there is enough
fuel in the tank.
If the tank level is on reser ve, the system
cannot be used.
The ventilation is activated provided that
the battery is sufficiently charged.
The heating is activated provided that:
-
t
he battery is sufficiently charged,
-

t
he fuel level is adequate,
-

t
he engine has been started since the
previous heating cycle.
Always switch off the additional heating
while refuelling – Risk of fire or explosion! To avoid the risks of poisoning or
asphyxia, the programmable heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in a
closed environment such as a garage or
workshop which is not equipped with an
exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on a flammable
sur face (dry grass, dead leaves, paper,
etc.) – Risk of fire!
Glazed sur faces such as the rear screen
or windscreen can become very hot in
places.
Never put objects on these sur faces;
never touch these sur faces – Risk of
burns!Front fittings

Refuelling
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 62 litres
(Petrol) or 55 litres (Diesel).
Reser ve level: 6 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fluid level is reached in
the tank, this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel, accompanied
by a message and an audible signal.
When it first comes on, about
6 litres of fuel is left in the tank.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refilling
A self-adhesive label on the inner face of the
filler flap reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres,
in order to be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler flap may create a noise
caused by an inrush of air. This is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of the fuel
system.
To refuel in complete safety:
F

Y
ou must switch off the engine.
F

W
ith the vehicle unlocked, press the rear
edge of the flap to open it (the filler cap is a
part of it). F
I nsert the nozzle so as to push in the metal
non-return flap.
F

M
ake sure that the nozzle is pushed in as
far as possible before starting to refuel (risk
of blowback).
F

H
old it in this position throughout the filling
operation.
F

P
ush the filler flap to close it.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp
appears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal. When driving, this message
and audible signal are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards " 0".
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out
of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel) , refer to the corresponding section. If you are filling your tank to the top, do not
continue after the 3
rd cut- off of the nozzle;
this could cause malfunctions.
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, allowing only
unleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have the fuel
tank drained and filled with the correct
fuel before star ting the engine.
F

T

ake care to select the pump that delivers
the correct type of fuel for your vehicle.

Misfuel prevention (Diesel)
(Depending on the country of sale.)
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids
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.
Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into
your 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.It remains possible to use a fuel can to fill
the tank.
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 and pour slowly.
Travelling 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.Towing device
Load distribution
F D
istribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it. Use towing devices and their genuine
harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. It
is recommended that the installation be
per formed by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the towing device is not fitted by
a PEUGEOT dealer, it must still be
fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Important
: for versions equipped with
the hands-free tailgate, if a towing device
is installed outside of the PEUGEOT
dealer network, it is essential to visit a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
to recalibrate the detection system: risk of
hands-free function malfunction!
Certain driving assistance or manoeuvring
assistance functions are automatically
disabled if an approved towing device is
used.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing engine performance. The maximum
towed load must be reduced by 10% for every
1,000 metres of altitude.
