Recommended fuel
Petrol engines are compatible with minimum 91 
RON unleaded fuel.
Diesel engines are compatible with type B0 
fuel  not containing Fatty Acid Methyl Ester 
(biofuel) and B7 and B10 type fuels conforming 
to EN590 and EN16734 standards containing 
respectively up to 7% and 10% of Fatty Acid 
Methyl Ester.
Depending on the country of sale, the Diesel 
fuel must be suited to the ambient temperature 
in order to optimise engine performance and 
minimise polluting emissions.
Temperature  greater than Diesel quality
5°C (+41°F) N°0
-5°C (+23°F) N°-10
-10°C (+14°F) N°-20
-25°C (-13°F) N°-35
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel 
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted, 
domestic fuel, etc.) is strictly prohibited (risk 
of damage to the engine and fuel system).
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the 
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel 
fuels could prevent the engine from operating  correctly
. In these temperature conditions, use 
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank 
more than 50   % full.
At temperatures below -15   °C (+5   °F) to avoid 
problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle 
under shelter (heated garage).
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s 
engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular 
fuel may be required (specific octane rating, 
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct 
operation of the engine.
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
Refuelling
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 80 litres.
Reserve level: approximately 11 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached, this 
warning lamp lights up on the instrument 
panel. When it first comes on, about 11 litres of 
fuel remain.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp 
appears every time the ignition is switched on, 
accompanied by the message and the audible 
signal. When driving, this message and audible 
signal are repeated with increasing frequency as 
the fuel level drops towards  0.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid 
running out of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel 
(Diesel), refer to the corresponding section.
A small arrow by the warning lamp  indicates which side of the vehicle the 
fuel filler flap is located on.
Refuelling
When refuelling, at least 10 litres must be added 
in order to be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler cap may create a noise caused 
by an inrush of air. This vacuum is normal, 
caused by the sealing of the fuel system.
To refuel in complete safety:
►
 
Always switch off the engine. 
 
► Pull the release control, located on the floor 
on the driver's side, to open the filler flap.
►
 
T
 ake care to select the pump that delivers the 
correct fuel type for your vehicle's engine (see a 
reminder label on the inside of the filler flap).
►
 
T
 urn the filler cap to the left, remove it and 
place it on its support (on the filler
  flap).
►
 
Insert the filler nozzle and push it in as far as 
possible before starting to refuel (to minimise the 
risk of splashing).

Practical information
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop for advice on removing stubborn 
stains requiring special products (such as tar 
or insect removers).
Apply silicone oil to the door and window 
seals every year and regularly lubricate the 
door hinges and the locks.
To avoid damaging the seals when the vehicle 
is parked for a long time, apply silicone-based 
lubricant to the door seals and wax on the 
bodywork in contact with the seals.
Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed 
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
Interior
When washing the vehicle, never use a 
water hose or high-pressure jet to clean 
the interior.
Liquids carried in cups or other open 
containers can spill, presenting a risk of 
damage to the instruments and controls and 
the controls located on the centre console. Be 
vigilant!
When cleaning the windows, never use glass 
cleaner on the heated rear screen.
Do not use corrosive cleaning products to 
clean the surface of the vehicle windows.
Clean plastic components with a damp cotton 
cloth dipped in a neutral pH and non-abrasive 
solution. Clean oily or difficult stains with a 
solvent-free product.
To clean instrument panels, touch screens 
or other displays, wipe gently with a soft, 
dry cloth. Do not use cleaning products (e.g. 
alcohol, disinfectant) or soapy water directly 
on these surfaces - risk of damage!
Bodywork
High-gloss paint
Do not use abrasive products, solvents, 
petrol or oil to clean the bodywork.
Never use an abrasive sponge to clean 
stubborn stains - risk of scratching the 
paintwork!
Do not apply polish in strong sunshine, or to 
plastic or rubber parts.
Use a soft cloth and soapy water or a pH 
neutral product.
Gently wipe the bodywork with a clean 
microfibre cloth.
Apply polish with the vehicle clean and dry.
Comply with the instructions for use stated on 
the product.
Decals
(Depending on version)
Do not use a high-pressure washer to 
clean the vehicle - risk of damaging or 
detaching the decals!
Use a high-flow hose (temperature 
between 25°C and 40°C).
Place the jet of water perpendicular to the 
surface to be cleaned.
Rinse the vehicle with demineralised water.
Corrosion protection
Avoid accumulation of salt, dirt,  chemicals and moisture in hard-to-clean 
areas.
Have damaged parts of the bodywork 
repaired.
Avoid parking the vehicle in wet areas; favour 
aerated and ventilated areas.
Remove dust or sand from under the 
mats and dry any moisture.
Regularly clean the drain holes in the doors, 
the bodywork and the chassis.
When transporting corrosive objects (acids, 
fertilisers, salt), use special containers and 
clean after unloading.
Wash the vehicle, paying particular attention 
to hard-to-reach areas, after driving on roads 
treated with road salt.
Leather
Leather is a natural product. Appropriate regular 
care is essential for its durability.

► Pass the connecting piece through the wheel 
hub to release it.
Putting the winch and spare wheel 
back in place
When the spare wheel is fitted in place of 
a wheel with a punctured tyre, the winch 
and punctured tyre must be put back in 
position underneath the vehicle before 
restarting.
►
 
Position the wheel flat, with the valve 
upwards.
 
 
► Pass the connecting piece through the wheel 
hub.
►
 
Centre and position the connecting piece 
under the spare wheel, making sure that the 
claw 
A comes out of one of the wheel tightening 
holes.
A padlock can be fitted in the hole of the  claw A to lock the chain to the spare 
wheel to act as an anti-theft device.
►
 
T
ighten the winch chain by turning the control 
screw with the wheelbrace  2 and the extension 3 
anticlockwise.
►
 
Place the wheel under the rear of the vehicle.
►
 
Raise the wheel under the vehicle, by turning 
the winch control screw with the wheelbrace  2
 
and the extension  3 anticlockwise.
►
 
When the wheel is halfway up, check that the 
suspended 
chain can enter the hole in the wheel. 
►
 
T
ighten fully.
►
 
Check that the wheel is properly flattened 
against the floor
.
Check that the wheel is not caught on the 
external parts.
Check that the wheel is held firmly against 
its support by trying to turn and push it. If 
the wheel moves, repeat the positioning 
procedure.
Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does 
not obstruct traffic: the ground must be level, 
stable and non-slippery.
With a manual gearbox, engage first gear 
then switch off the ignition to block the 
wheels.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear 
selector in position  P then switch off the 
ignition to block the wheels. 
Apply the parking brake and check that the 
indicator lamp lights up on the instrument 
panel.
Ensure that the occupants have left the 
vehicle and are located in a safe place.
Never start the engine while the vehicle is on 
the jack.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised using a 
jack; use an axle stand.
Always place a chock against the wheel 
diagonally opposite to the one being replaced.
