AdBlue® fluid ange
indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reserve 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 travelled before engine starting is
prevented.
In the event of a simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest-range figure is
the one displayed.
In the event of the risk of non-starting
related to a lack ofAdBlue®
The engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once theAdBlue
® tank is empty.
Range greater than 1,500 miles (2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of range in the instrument
panel.
Range between 1,500 and 375 miles (2,400
and 600 km)
Once the 1,500 miles (2,400 km)
threshold is reached, this indicator
flashes, accompanied by a temporary message
indicating the driving autonomy expressed in
miles or kilometres before the starting of the
engine is blocked.
Each time the ignition is switched on, the alert
will be accompanied by an audible signal.
The reserve level has been reached; it is
recommended that you top up as soon as
possible.
Range less than 372 miles (600 km)
Once the 372 miles (600 km) threshold is
reached, this indicator flashes,
accompanied by a message indicating the
driving autonomy expressed in miles or
kilometres before the starting of the engine is
blocked.
The alert will be repeated with update of the
remaining range at each increment of 31 miles
(50 km) travelled.
Each time the ignition is switched on, the alert
will be accompanied by an audible signal.
It is imperative to top up as soon as possible
before the tank empties completely. Otherwise
you will not be able to restart the vehicle.
Breakdown related to a lack of AdBlue
®
0 km range reached: the AdBlue® tank is empty.
The regulatory device prevents the engine from
starting.
Unless the AdBlue
® is topped up in the
special additive tank, the vehicle will remain
immobilised.
To be able to restart the engine, you must top up with at least 4 litres of
AdBlue®. You can also call a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop for the top-up
required.
For more information on AdBlue®
(BlueHDi engines) and, in particular
topping up, refer to the corresponding section.
In the event of a fault with the SCR
emissions control system
Detection
The self-diagnostic warning lamp comes on.
Every time the ignition is switched on, the
emissions fault is confirmed by an audible signal
and a message.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert disappears
as soon as the exhaust emissions return to the
levels required by the standard.
However, if the warning lamp is still on
after 30 miles (50 km) of driving, the fault
is confirmed.
An engine start prevention system will be
activated automatically after 250 miles (400
km) travelled following this confirmation.
See a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.

Successive presses on these
controls adjust the headlamps.
An indicator lamp on the display indicates the
selected setting position (0, 1, 2, 3).
Wiper control stalk
Windscreen wipers
The wiping is active only when the ignition key is
in the ON position.
The control stalk can have 5 different positions:– Wipers off.– Intermittent wiping: 1 notch down. In this
position, by turning the ring, it is possible to
select 4 frequency levels (very slow, slow,
normal, fast).
– Slow continuous wiping: 2 notches down.– Fast continuous wiping: 3 notches down.– Single wipe: pull the control stalk towards the steering wheel.
Automatic rain sensitive windscreen wipers
If your vehicle is fitted with this system, the
wiping speed is adapted automatically to the
intensity of the rainfall.
Automatic wipe: 1 notch downwards. This is
confirmed by a single wipe. Must be reactivated
after each time the ignition is switched off.
In this position, it is possible to increase the
sensitivity of the rain sensor by turning the ring.
Do not cover the rain sensor, located at
the top centre of the windscreen.
When washing the vehicle, switch off the
ignition or deactivate the automatic rain
sensitive wipers.
Check that the windscreen wiper blades
will be able to operate freely when using
in freezing conditions.
Use the footboard, in the lower front panel, to
remove any accumulation of snow at the base of the windscreen and on the blades.
You can change the wiper blades. For more information on Changing
a wiper blade , refer to the corresponding
section.
With Stop & Start, when the windscreen
wiper control is in the fast wiping
position, STOP mode is not available.
Screenwash and headlamp
washers
► Pull the wiper control towards you; the screenwash action will be accompanied by a
timed operation of the wipers.
Depending on version, the headlamp washer
is linked to the screenwash; it is activated if the
dipped beam headlamps are on.
This fluid level should be checked regularly, particularly during winter.
For more information on Checking the levels
and, in particular, on the screenwash / headlamp
washer levels, refer to the corresponding
section.

Practical information
Topping up the engine oil level
► Remove the dipstick before topping up.► Recover the oil filler neck.► Unscrew the filler cap.► Install the oil filler neck in the filler hole.► Top up with oil.► Remove the oil filler neck from the filler hole.► Replace the filler cap.► Replace the dipstick.
Brake fluid
The level of this fluid should be close to
the "MAX" mark. If not, check the brake
pad wear.
The Diesel circuit is under very high
pressure.
All work on this circuit must be carried out
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in
accordance with the manufacturer's service
schedule. Top them up if required, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The fluids must comply with the manufacturer's requirements and with
the vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even with
the ignition off).
If the engine cover is to be removed /
refitted, handle it with care to avoid
damaging the mounting clips.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers reserved
for this purpose at a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The level is checked, with the engine having been switched off for at least 30
minutes and on level ground, using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
services (or oil changes). It is recommended
that you check the level, and top up if necessary,
every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emissions control system,
never use additives in the engine oil.
Checking using the dipstick
For the location of the dipstick, please refer
to the illustration of the corresponding engine
compartment.
► Grasp the dipstick by its coloured grip and pull it out completely.
► Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean, lint-free cloth.
► Reinsert the dipstick and push fully down, then pull it out again to visually check the oil
level: the correct level is between marks A (max) and B (min).
Do not start the engine if the level is:
– above mark A: contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
– below mark B: top up the engine oil
immediately.
Oil grade
Before topping up or changing the engine
oil, check that the oil is suitable for the engine
and complies with the recommendations in
the service schedule supplied with the vehicle
(or available from your PEUGEOT dealer and
qualified workshops).
Use of non-recommended oil may invalidate
the contractual warranty in the event of
engine failure.
