Retrieving the servicing information
You can view the servicing information by
pressing the “Check" button in the Driving
/ Vehicle touch screen menu.
Engine coolant temperature
indicator


With the engine running:
– In z one A, the temperature is correct.
–

In z
one B, the temperature is too high; the
associated warning lamp and the central STOP
warning lamp come on in red on the instrument
panel, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal.
You must stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to
do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off the
engine.
After switching off the ignition, carefully
open the bonnet and check the coolant
level.
For more information on Checking levels,
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 reserve
level (between 1,500 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 driving range is greater than 1,500 miles
(2,400 km), it is not displayed automatically.
You can view the range information by
pressing the "Check" button in the touch
screen’s Driving / Vehicle menu.
Actions required related to a lack of
AdBlue®
The following warning lamps light up when the
quantity of AdBlue® is lower than the reserve level
corresponding to a range of 1,500 miles (2,400
km).
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.
For more information on AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines), and in particular on topping up,
refer to the corresponding section.

With the ignition off, opening the driver's
door activates the indicator, which moves
to the "neutral" position.
Charge level indicator (Electric)

The traction battery charge status and remaining
range are displayed continuously when the
vehicle is started.
With the ignition off, opening the driver's
door activates the indicator.
Associated warning lamps
Two successive alert levels indicate that the
energy available has dropped to a low level:
1st level: Reserve
The state of charge of the traction battery
is low.
Fixed, accompanied by an audible signal.
►  View the remaining range on the instrument
panel.
►  Put the vehicle on charge as soon as possible.
2nd level: Critical
The state of charge of the traction battery
is critical.
Fixed, together with the reserve warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal.
►  You must put the vehicle on charge.
The remaining range is no longer
calculated. The drive train power
gradually decreases.
The heating and air conditioning are switched
off (even if the cursor indicating their
consumption is not at the ECO position).
Thermal comfort consumption
indicator (Electric)


The gauge shows the consumption of electric
power for thermal comfort functions.
It concerns the following equipment and systems:
– Heating.
–

Air c
onditioning.
–

F
ront demisting/defrosting.
–

R
ear screen demisting/defrosting.
–

Hea
ted seats.
The traction battery powers the heating and air
conditioning systems.
This equipment and these functions can be used:
–

If the v
ehicle is not plugged in, when the READY
lamp is lit.
–

If the v
ehicle is plugged in, when the ignition is
switched on.
Selecting Eco mode limits the performance of
some equipment. The cursor on the thermal
comfort consumption indicator then moves into
the "ECO" zone.
To quickly heat or cool the passenger
compartment, feel free to temporarily
select the maximum heating or cooling setting.
Excessive use of thermal comfort equipment,
particularly at low speed, can significantly
decrease the vehicle's range.
Remember to optimise equipment settings
upon achieving the desired level of comfort,
and adjust them if necessary whenever you
start the vehicle.
After an extended period without using the
heating, you may notice a slight odour during
the first few minutes of use.

the current fuel consumption.
When the range falls below 19 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed.
After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the range
is recalculated and is displayed if it exceeds 62
miles (100 km).
If dashes instead of figures continue to be
displayed while driving, contact a dealer or a
qualified workshop.
