Practical information
Compatibility of fuels  
Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734 
and EN16709 standards and containing up to 
7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester 
respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even 
occasionally, imposes special maintenance 
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".
  
Paraffinic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940 
standard.
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel (e.g.   pure or diluted vegetable or animal 
oils, domestic fuel) is strictly prohibited - risk 
of damaging the engine and fuel system!
The only Diesel fuel additives authorised  for use are those that meet the B715000 
standard.
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 69 litres.
Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached, 
one of these warning lamps lights 
up on the instrument panel, accompanied by the 
display of a message and an audible signal. 
When it first comes on, about 8 litres of fuel 
remain.
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.
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP 
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refuelling
At least 8 litres of fuel 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 is entirely normal and 
results from the sealing of the fuel system.
To refuel in complete safety:
►
 
Always switch off the engine.
►
 
Unlock the vehicle using the Keyless Entry 
and Start.
 
 
► Open the fuel filler flap.    CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Practical information
7Brake fluid
The level of this fluid should be close to 
the "MAX" mark. If not, check the brake 
pads for wear.
To know how often the brake fluid should be 
replaced, refer to the manufacturer's servicing 
schedule.
Clean the cap before removing it to refill. 
Use only DOT4 brake fluid from a sealed 
container.
Power steering fluid
The level of this fluid should be close to  the "MAX" mark. Check it, with the 
vehicle parked on level ground and with the 
engine cold, by reading the level on the filler 
neck.
Engine coolant
(Diesel)
It is normal to top up this fluid between 
two services.
The check and top-up must only be done with 
the engine cold.
A level of coolant that is too low risks causing 
major damage to the engine; the coolant level 
must be close to the "MAX" mark without ever 
going above it.
If the level is close to or below the " MIN" mark, it 
is essential to top it up.
When the engine is hot, the temperature of the 
coolant is regulated by the fan.
As the cooling system is pressurised, wait at 
least one hour after switching off the engine 
before carrying out any work.
In order to avoid the risk of scalding if you need 
to top up in an emergency, wrap a cloth around 
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to 
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap 
and top up to the required level.
Vehicle with electric motorDo not top up the coolant. 
If the level is close to or below 
the   "MIN"   mark, it is essential to contact a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when  necessary.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a pre-mixed 
product.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid 
containing an anti-freeze agent which is 
appropriate for the temperature conditions 
must be used in order to protect the system's 
components (pump, tank, ducts, jets).
Filling with pure water is prohibited in all 
circumstances (risk of freezing, 
limescale, etc.).
Diesel fuel additive (Diesel 
with particle filter)
On reaching the minimum level in 
the particle filter additive tank, one 
of these warning lamps comes on fixed, 
accompanied by an audible signal and a warning 
message.
Topping up
The topping up of this additive must be carried 
out quickly.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
An alert is triggered when the reserve level is 
reached.
For more information on the  Indicators and in 
particular the AdBlue range indicators, refer to 
the corresponding section.
To avoid the vehicle being immobilised in 
accordance with regulations, you must top up the 
AdBlue tank.  CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Practical information
the shock absorbers have a major impact on 
road holding and braking performance.
For your safety and driving comfort, it is 
important to have them regularly checked by a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Timing and accessory kits
The timing and accessory kits are used 
from the time the engine is started until it 
is switched off. It is normal for them to wear over 
time.
A
 faulty timing or accessory kit can damage 
the engine, rendering it unusable. Observe the 
recommended replacement frequency, stated in 
distance travelled or time elapsed, whichever is 
reached first.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
To respect the environment and ensure  compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without 
adversely affecting the performance or fuel 
consumption of its Diesel engines, PEUGEOT 
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with 
a system that combines SCR (Selective Catalytic 
Reduction) with a Diesel Particle Filter (DPF) for 
the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains 
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of 
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and 
water, which are harmless to health and the 
environment.
The AdBlue® is contained in  a special 
tank holding about 20 litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of 
approximately 3,000
  miles (5,000   km) (which 
may vary considerably  depending on your 
driving style and the vehicle). An alert system 
is automatically triggered when the remaining 
range reaches 1,500 miles (2,400
  km), i.e. once 
the reserve level has been reached.
Several alerts are triggered successively during 
the remaining 1,500 miles (2,400
  km) until the 
tank is empty and the vehicle is immobilised.
If the estimated distance travelled by the vehicle 
between two services is greater than 3,000
  miles 
(5,000
 
km), it will be necessary to top up the 
AdBlue.
For more information on the  Warning 
and indicator lamps  and the associated 
alerts, or the Indicators, please refer to the 
corresponding sections.
Once  the AdBlue® tank is empty, a device 
required by law prevents the engine from 
being restarted.
If the SCR system is faulty, the level of 
emissions from the vehicle will no longer meet 
the Euro 6 standard and the vehicle starts 
polluting the environment.
In the event of a confirmed SCR system 
malfunction, it is essential to visit a 
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop as 
soon as possible. After 685 miles (1,100 km), 
a device is automatically activated to prevent 
the engine from starting.
In both cases, a range indicator indicates 
the distance that can be travelled before the 
vehicle is immobilised.
Freezing of the AdBlue®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below 
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for the 
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue driving 
in very cold conditions.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® be topped 
up as soon as the first alert is issued indicating 
that the reserve level has been reached.
For the correct operation of the SCR 
system:
–
 
Use 
 only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the ISO 
22241 standard.
–
 
Never 
transfer AdBlue
® to another container 
as it would lose its purity.
–
 
Never 
dilute AdBlue
® with water.
You can obtain AdBlue
® from a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop, as well as service 
stations equipped with AdBlue
® pumps specially 
designed for passenger vehicles.  CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Practical information
7Never top up from an AdBlue® dispenser 
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates 
above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a 
cool area and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for 
at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has 
completely thawed out at room temperature.
Never  store AdBlue® containers in your 
vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based  solution. This fluid is 
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (when 
kept in a cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the 
affected area with soap and running water. In the 
event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse 
the eyes with large amounts of water or with an 
eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek 
medical attention if you feel a persistent burning 
sensation or irritation.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth 
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high temperature, for 
example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot 
be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia 
vapours have an irritant effect on mucous 
membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Store AdBlue® out of the reach of 
children, in its original container.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that 
the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature 
of the vehicle is above -11°C. Otherwise the 
AdBlue
® may be frozen and so cannot be poured 
into the tank. Park the vehicle in a warmer area 
for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried 
out.
Never 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 the Keyless Entry and Start system, 
press the "
START/STOP" button to switch off the 
engine.
