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 driving range
While the driving range is greater than
1,500 miles (2,400 km), it is not displayed
automatically.
Driving range information is accessible
using the Settings > Vehicle application
on the touch screen.

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.

Malfunction of the SCR emissions
control system
Malfunction detection


If a malfunction is detected,
these warning lamps come
on, accompanied by an
audible signal and the display
of an "Emissions control
fault" message.
The alert is triggered while driving when the
fault is detected for the first time, and thereafter
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, for as long as the cause of the fault
persists.
If the fault is temporary, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after
self-diagnostic checks of the SCR emissions
control system.
Malfunction confirmed during the
permitted driving phase (between 685
miles and 0
miles (1,100 km and 0 km))
If the fault indication is still displayed
permanently after 31 miles (50 km) of driving, the
fault in the SCR system is confirmed.
The AdBlue warning lamp flashes and a
message is displayed (" Emissions control
fault: starting prevented in X miles (kms) "),
indicating the driving range in miles or
kilometres.

Access
2From inside

► Pull the interior opening control of a door; this
unlocks the vehicle completely .
The window automatically comes down by a few
millimetres, allowing the door to be sealed when
closed.
With selective unlocking activated:
– Opening the driver's door unlocks
the driver's door only (if the vehicle has not
already been completely unlocked).
–

Opening one of the passenger doors
unlocks the rest of the vehicle.
Closing

The window automatically goes back up after
a few seconds and adjusts to seal the window
perfectly.
Beware of the risk of trapping your
fingers when the window comes up
automatically.
– If a door is not properly closed, this
warning lamp comes on accompanied by
a message if the engine is running, and an
audible signal when the vehicle is travelling at
more than 6
mph (10 km/h).
When washing the vehicle
First lock the vehicle using the remote
control or remove the electronic key from the
recognition zone, with the doors closed.
Avoid spraying the upper part of the windows.
Keep the end of the high-pressure lance at
least 1 metre away from the door and window
seals.
Clean the door and window seals regularly
with a cloth wetted with demineralised water,
then dry with a soft cloth.
Looking after the seals
From time to time, the rubber door and
window seals must be sprayed with a silicone
type care product to prevent premature wear
and sealing problems.
This also makes the doors easier to open,
especially in winter to prevent freezing.
In case of battery failure
The micro-descent system may not
operate:
► Open the driver's door gently .
► Recharge or replace the battery .
►

Switch on the ignition again.
