Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items in 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 the summer tyres.
Comply with servicing
instructions
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.
You will only see the fuel consumption
of your new vehicle settle down to a
consistent average after the first 1,900 miles
(3,000
kilometres).
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes
polluting. Visit a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible to
bring your vehicle’s nitrogen oxides emissions
back in line with the regulations.

AdBlue® range indicators
(BlueHDi)
The Diesel BlueHDi engines are equipped with
a system that associates the SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) emissions control system
and the Diesel particle filter (DPF) for the
treatment of exhaust gases. They cannot
function without AdBlue
®fluid.
When the level of AdBlue® falls below the
reser ve level (between 1,500 miles and 0
miles (2,400 and 0
km)), a warning lamp lights
up when the ignition is switched on and an
estimate of the distance that can be travelled
before engine starting is prevented is displayed
in the instrument panel.
The engine starting prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is
empty. It is then no longer possible to
start the engine until the minimum level of
AdBlue
® has been topped up.
Manual display of the range
While the range is greater than 1,500 miles
(2,400 km), it is not displayed automatically. With touch screen
Actions required related to a lack
of AdBlue®
The following warning lamps light up when the
quantity of AdBlue® is lower than the reser ve
level corresponding to a range of 1,500 miles
(2, 4 0 0
k m).
Together with the warning lamps, messages
regularly remind you of the need to top up to
avoid engine starting being prevented. Refer to
the Warning and indicator lamps section for
details of the messages displayed. You can access this information via
the "
Driving/Vehicle " menu.

Malfunction of the SCR
emissions control system
Malfunction detection
If a malfunction is detected, these
warning lamps come on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display
of an "Emissions fault" or "NO START
IN" message.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after self-diagnostic checks of the SCR
emissions control system.
Malfunction confirmed during
the permitted driving phase
(between 685 and 0 miles (1,100
and 0 km))
If the warning lamp is still on after 31 miles
(50
km) of driving, the fault in the SCR system
is confirmed. 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.

Starting prevented
Every time the ignition is switched on, the
message "Emissions fault: Starting prevented"
or "NO START IN" is displayed.To be able to restart the engine, call on a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Distance recorders
The total and trip distances are 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.
Total distance recorder
It measures the total distance travelled by the
vehicle since its first registration.
Trip distance recorder
It measures the distance travelled since it was
reset by the driver.
The AdBlue warning lamp flashes,
accompanied by the display of a message
("Emissions fault: Starting prevented in X
miles" or "NO START IN X miles") indicating
the remaining range in miles or kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every
30 seconds. The alert is repeated when
switching on the ignition.
You can continue driving for up to 685 miles
(1,100

Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a system
r
equired by regulations prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR system is faulty, the level of
emissions from the vehicle will no longer
meet the Euro 6 standard: the 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 the
distance that can be travelled before the
vehicle is immobilised.
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.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® be 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.
AdBlue
® can be obtained from a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
You can also visit a ser vice station
equipped with AdBlue
® pumps specially
designed for passenger vehicles.
Never top up from an AdBlue
® dispenser
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Recommendations on
storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11 °C and
d
eteriorates above +25 °C. Containers should
be stored in a cool area 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 store AdBlue
® containers in your
vehicle.
Precautions for use
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 running water. In
the event of contact with the eyes, immediately
rinse the 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.
