Practical information
7Never pour the AdBlue® into the Diesel
fuel tank.
If any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the bodywork, rinse
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a
sponge and hot water.
Important: in the event of a top-up after
a breakdown because of a lack of
AdBlue, it is essential to wait around 5
minutes before switching on the ignition,
without opening the driver’s door,
unlocking the vehicle, inserting the key
into the ignition switch, or bringing the
key for the "Keyless Entry and Start"
system into the passenger compartment.
Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10
seconds before starting the engine.
►
Switch off the ignition and remove the key
from the switch to switch off the engine.
or
►
With Keyless Entry and Start, press the
"
START/STOP" button to switch off the engine.
► Turn the blue cap of the AdBlue® tank anti-
clockwise and remove it.
►
With a container of
AdBlue
®: after checking
the expiry date, read the instructions on the
label carefully before pouring the contents of the
container into the vehicle's AdBlue tank.
►
With an
AdBlue® pump: insert the nozzle and
fill the tank until the nozzle automatically cuts
out.
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:
–
Add between 10 and 13 litres using
AdBlue® containers.
–
Stop after the nozzle’ s first automatic cut-
out, if you are refilling at a service station.
The system only registers AdBlue
® top-ups of
5
litres or more.
If the AdBlue® tank is completely empty
– which is confirmed by the message
“Top up
AdBlue: Starting impossible ” – it is
essential to add at least 5 litres.
Free-wheeling
In certain situations, it is necessary to put the
vehicle into free-wheeling mode (e.g. towing, on
a rolling road, automatic car wash (Wash mode),
rail or sea transport).
With a manual gearbox and
electric parking brake
/
To release them
► With the engine running and while depressing
the brake pedal, move the gear selector to the
neutral position.
►
While depressing the brake pedal, switch off
the ignition.
►
Release the brake pedal, then switch on the
ignition again.
►
While depressing the brake pedal, press the
control lever to release the parking brake.
►
Release the brake pedal, then switch off the
ignition.
Reverting to normal operation
► While depressing the brake pedal, restart the
engine.

► Switch on the compressor by moving the
switch to position " I
" until the tyre pressure
reaches 2 bar. The sealant product is injected
under pressure into the tyre; do not disconnect
the pipe from the valve during this operation (risk
of blowback).
If after approximately 7 minutes, the
pressure of 2 bar is not reached, this
indicates that the tyre is not repairable;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.
►
Move the switch to position " O
".
►
Disconnect the compressor's electric plug
from the vehicle's 12
V socket.
►
Remove the kit.
►
Refit the cap on the valve.
►
Remove and store the bottle of sealant.
The sealant product is harmful if swallowed and causes irritation to the
eyes.
Keep this product out of the reach of children.
The use-by date of the fluid is marked on the
bottle.
After use, do not discard the bottle into the
environment; take it to a PEUGEOT dealer or
an authorised waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle of
sealant, available from a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
► Drive immediately for approximately 3 miles
(5 kilometres) at reduced speed (between
12 and 37 mph (20 and 60
km/h)) to plug the
puncture.
►
Stop to check the repair
and the tyre
pressure using the kit.
With a tyre repaired using this type of kit,
do not exceed a speed of 50
mph
(80
km/h) and do not drive more than
50
miles (80 km).
You must contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop to have the repair checked
and the tyre changed.
Checking/adjusting tyre
pressures
The compressor can be used, without injecting
sealant, to check and, if necessary, adjust the
tyre pressures.
►
Remove the valve cap from the tyre and keep
it in a clean place.
►
Uncoil
the pipe stowed under the compressor.
►
Screw the pipe onto the valve and tighten
firmly
.
►
Check that the compressor switch is in
position " O
".
►
Fully uncoil the electric cable stowed under
the compressor
.
►
Connect the compressor's electric plug to the
vehicle's 12
V socket.
►
Switch the ignition on.
►
Start the compressor by placing the switch at
position " I
" and adjust the pressure to the value
shown on the vehicle's tyre pressure label. To
deflate: press the black button located on the
compressor pipe, near the valve connection.
If after 7 minutes the pressure of 2 bar is
not reached, the tyre is damaged;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.
►
Once the correct pressure is reached, put the
switch in position " O
".
►
Remove the kit and stow it.
►
Refit the cap on the valve.

In the event of a breakdown
8► Allow the engine to run for at least
30 minutes, with the vehicle stationary, so that
the battery reaches an adequate state of charge.
Driving immediately without having
reached a sufficient level of charge may
affect some of the vehicle's functions (e.g.
Stop & Start).
Charging the battery using a battery
charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances, it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
–
When using the vehicle mainly for short
journeys.
–
If the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Consult a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified
workshop.
To charge the vehicle's battery yourself, use only a charger compatible with
lead-acid batteries with a nominal voltage of
12
V.
Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
►
Switch the ignition off.
►
Switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lighting, wipers, etc.).
► Switch off charger B before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
►
Ensure that the charger cables are in good
condition.
►
Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if the
vehicle has one.
►
Connect the cables of charger B
as follows:
•
the positive (+) red cable to the (+) terminal
of battery
A,
•
the negative (-) black cable to earth point C
on the vehicle.
►
At the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B
before disconnecting the cables
from battery A.
If this label is present, use only a 12 V
charger to avoid causing irreversible
damage to the electrical components.
24V
12V
Disconnecting/reconnecting the
battery
In order to maintain an adequate state of
charge for starting the engine, we recommend
disconnecting the battery if the vehicle is to be
unused for an extended period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
►
Close all openings (doors, boot, windows,
roof).
►
Switch off all electricity-consuming devices
(audio system, wipers, lamps, etc.).
►
Switch off the ignition and wait for 4
minutes.
After accessing the battery, it is only necessary
to disconnect the (+) terminal.

192
In the event of a breakdown
Quick-release terminal clamp
Disconnecting the (+) terminal
► Depending on equipment, lift the plastic cover
on the (+) terminal.
►
Raise lever
A
fully to release clamp
B
.
►
Remove clamp
B
by lifting it off.
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
► Raise lever A fully.
► Refit open clamp B on the (+) terminal.
► Push clamp B fully down.
► Lower lever A to lock clamp B.
►
Depending on equipment, lower the plastic
cover on the
(+) terminal.
Do not force the lever when pressing on
it, as if the clamp is not positioned
correctly, locking will then not be possible.
Start the procedure again.
The Stop & Start system may not be operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be available
again after a continuous period with the
vehicle immobilised, the duration of which
depends on the exterior temperature and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about 8
hours).
With Rechargeable hybrid
engines
The rechargeable hybrid system has two accessory batteries: one at the front and one at
the centre of the vehicle.
Replacing the accessory batteries
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Jump-starting another vehicle
Do not start or jump-start another vehicle
using the vehicle’s accessory batteries.
Accessing the accessory batteries
Front
The front battery is located under the bonnet.
For access to the (+) terminal:
► Release the bonnet by pulling the internal
release lever
, then the external safety catch.
►
Raise the bonnet.
(+)
Positive terminal with a quick-release
terminal.
(-) Negative terminal.
As the battery's negative terminal is not
accessible, a remote earth point is located near
the battery.
Central
The central battery is located in the front armrest
storage compartment.
To reach the battery:
