Oil level indicator fault
This is indicated by a message on the 
instrument panel. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer 
or a qualified workshop.To locate the dipstick and the oil filler 
cap for the Diesel engine , refer to the 
corresponding section.
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.

parking brake is still applied or has 
not been fully released.
When parking on a slope or on a steep 
slope with a loaded vehicle, turn the 
wheels against the kerb then apply the 
parking brake.
Pressing the brake pedal facilitates the 
application and release of the manual 
parking brake. With a manual gearbox, engage a gear 
then switch off the ignition.

Hill start assist
System which keeps your vehicle immobilised 
temporarily (approximately 2 seconds) when 
starting on a gradient, the time it takes to 
move your foot from the brake pedal to the 
accelerator pedal.
It is only active when:
-
 
t
 he vehicle is completely stationary, with 
your foot on the brake pedal,
-
 
c
 ertain slope conditions are met,
-
 
t
 he driver’s door is closed. Do not leave the vehicle while it is being 
held temporarily by hill start assist.
If you need to leave the vehicle with the 
engine running, apply the parking brake 
manually then ensure that the parking 
brake warning lamp lights up fixed on the 
instrument panel.

It is not necessary to release the 
accelerator when changing gear.
When braking or slowing down, the 
gearbox changes down automatically 
to allow the vehicle to accelerate in the 
correct gear.
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will 
not change up unless the driver acts on 
the steering mounted paddles.
Never select neutral N while the vehicle is 
moving.
Only engage reverse gear R when the 
vehicle is stopped and the brake pedal is 
pressed.

At low speed, if reverse gear is requested, 
the N indicator lamp flashes and the 
gearbox goes into neutral automatically. 
To engage reverse, with your foot on 
the brake pedal, move the selector to 
position
 
N, then to position R .
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, it is possible to:
-
 m ove to position N to engage neutral,
or
-
 
l
 eave the vehicle in gear; in this case, the 
vehicle cannot be moved.
In both cases, you must apply the parking 
brake to immobilise the vehicle.
When immobilising the vehicle with the 
engine running, you must move the 
selector to neutral N .
Before doing anything under the bonnet, 
ensure that the selector is in neutral N and 
that the parking brake is applied.
Malfunction
With the ignition on, the flashing of A or 
AUTO , accompanied by an audible signal and 
a message, indicates a malfunction of the 
gearbox.
Have the vehicle checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop. You must keep your foot on the brake 
pedal while starting the engine.
In all parking situations, you must apply 
the parking brake to immobilise the 
vehicle.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine 
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during 
phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights, 
queues, etc.). The engine restarts automatically 
- START mode - as soon as the driver wishes 
to move off again.
Primarily designed for urban use, the function 
is intended to reduce fuel consumption and 
exhaust emissions as well as the noise level 
when stationary.
The function does not affect the functionalities 
of the vehicle, in particular the braking.
Driving on flooded roads
Before entering into a flooded area, it is 
strongly recommended that you deactivate 
the Stop & Start system.
