If you have put in the wrong fuel for the
vehicle, you must have the fuel tank
drained and filled with the correct fuel before
starting the engine.
The 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, admitting unleaded
petrol nozzles only.
Misfuel prevention (Diesel)
(Depending on country of sale.)
This mechanical device prevents filling the tank
of a Diesel vehicle with petrol.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention
device appears when the filler cap is removed.
Operation

When a petrol filler nozzle is inserted into the
fuel filler neck of a Diesel vehicle, 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 jerrycan
to fill the tank.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, it is advisable to
check with a PEUGEOT dealer if the vehicle
is suitable for the distribution equipment of the
countries visited.

maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing
engine performance.
The maximum load which
can be towed must be reduced by 10% per
1,000
metres of altitude.
Use towing devices and their genuine
wiring harnesses approved by
PEUGEOT. It is recommended that the
installation be performed by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
If not fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer, it must
still be fitted in accordance with the vehicle
manufacturer's instructions.
Important: with a motorised tailgate and its
"Hands-Free Tailgate Access" function, if a
towing device is fitted outside 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 Tailgate Access" function failure.
Certain driving or manoeuvring aid functions
are automatically deactivated if an approved
towing system is used.
Observe the maximum authorised
towable weight, indicated on the vehicle's
registration certificate, the manufacturer's
label as well as in the Technical data section
of this guide.
Complying with the maximum authorised
nose weight (towball) also includes the
use of accessories (bicycle carriers, tow
boxes, etc.).
