Practical information

Peugeot & TotalEnergies,
a partnership in performance !
For more than 25 years of partnership, TotalEnergies and Peugeot have
pushed the limits of performance in sports competition with historic
victories, in endurance races or in rallies. Today, the two brands continue
their common motorsport adventure by setting out to conquer the 24h
of Le Mans and the FIA World Endurance Championship in the Hybrid
Hypercar category. So many challenges for which Peugeot exclusively
recommends high-tech Quartz lubricants for the protection of its
engines throughout their life. TotalEnergies therefore equips Peugeot
vehicles with Quartz lubricants from their fi rst fi lling in the factory to the
approved maintenance networks to guarantee them optimal day-to-
day operation. Peugeot & TotalEnergies: offi cial partners in performance !
Keep your engine younger for longer !
Quartz Ineo Xtra First 0W-20 is a very high performance lubricant
resulting from the joint work of the Peugeot and TotalEnergies R&D
teams. Its innovative technology extends your engine’s life while
reaching signifi cant fuel savings and thus limiting CO
2 emissions. The
product is now available in new packaging* made of 50% recycled
material and 100% recyclable.
* 1L & 5L produced in Europe

7Compatibility of fuels
Petrol fuels conforming to the EN228 standard
containing up to 5% and 10% ethanol
respectively.
The only petrol fuel additives authorised for use are those that meet the B715001
standard.
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 52 litres
(Petrol) or 40 litres (Rechargeable hybrid).
Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached, this
warning lamp lights up on the instrument
panel, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal. When it first comes on,
about 6 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.
A small arrow by the warning lamp indicates which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler flap is located on.
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refuelling
Any addition of fuel must be in quantities of at
least 10 litres, in order to be registered by the
fuel gauge.
Opening the filler flap may create a noise caused
by an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely
normal, resulting from the sealing of the fuel
system.
To refuel in complete safety:
►

Always switch off the engine.

► To open the filler flap, press the flap opening
button for more than 2 seconds or, with the
vehicle unlocked, press the rear of the filler flap
(depending on version).
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
After pressing the button on the
dashboard, the filler flap may not open for
several minutes. A sound is emitted when the
filler flap opens.
If the flap becomes stuck, press and hold
the button on the dashboard for more than
3

seconds.
►

Select a pump that delivers the correct fuel
type for the vehicle's engine (see a reminder
label on the inside of the filler flap).


► Turn the filler cap to the left, remove it
and place it on its support on the filler flap
(depending on version). CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Practical information
Wearers of pacemakers or equivalent
devices should consult a doctor to
enquire about any applicable precautionary
measures, or contact the manufacturer of their
implanted electronic medical device to check that
it is guaranteed to operate in an environment
compliant with the ICNIRP guidelines.
If in doubt , during charging, do not remain
inside or near the vehicle, near the charging
cable or the charging unit, even for a short time.
Before charging
Depending on the context:
►

Have a professional check that the
electrical system to be used complies with
applicable standards and is compatible with
the vehicle.
►


Have a professional electrician install
a dedicated domestic power socket or
accelerated charging unit (W

allbox)
compatible with the vehicle.
Use the charging cable supplied with the
vehicle.
For more information, contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
During charging
As a safety measure, the engine will
not start if the charging cable is plugged into
the connector on the vehicle. A warning is
displayed on the instrument panel.
While charging is in progress, unlocking the
vehicle will cause the charging to stop.
If no action is taken on one of the openings
(door or boot) or on the charging nozzle, the
vehicle will lock again after 30 seconds and
charging will resume automatically.
Never work under the bonnet:
–

Some areas remain very hot, even an hour
after charging ends - risk of burns!
–


The fan may start at any time - risk of cuts
or strangulation!
After charging
Check that the charging flap is closed.
Do not leave the cable connected to the
domestic power socket - risk of short-circuit
or electrocution in the event of contact with or
immersion in water!
Charging procedure
Connection
► Before charging, check that the gear selector
is in mode P and the ignition is off, otherwise
charging is impossible.
►

Press on the rear of the charging flap to open
it and check that there are no foreign bodies on
the vehicle's charging connector

.
The light guides in the flap come on white.
Domestic charging (mode 2)



► First, connect the charging cable from the
control unit to the domestic socket.
When the connection is made, all of the indicator
lamps on the control unit light up, then only the
POWER
indicator lamp remains on in green.
►

Remove the protective cover from the
charging nozzle.
►


Insert the nozzle into the vehicle's charging
connector

.
The start of charging is confirmed by the flashing
of the green light guides in the flap and the
flashing of the
CHARGE indicator lamp in green
on the control unit.
If this is not the case, charging has not started;
restart the procedure, ensuring that all of the
connections are properly established.
The red indicator lamp in the flap comes on to
indicate that the nozzle is locked. CarM an uals 2 .c o m
