6starts. As soon as the engine starts, release the
key so it returns to position 2.
The warning lamp does not come on if the engine is already warm. In some
climatic conditions, the following
recommendations should be followed:
–

In mild conditions, do not leave the engine
at idle to warm up but move off straight away
and drive at moderate speed.
–


In wintry conditions, the pre-heater warning
lamp will stay on for a longer period after
switching on the ignition; wait until it goes off
before starting.
–


In very severe wintry
conditions


(temperature below -23 °C), to
ensure correct operation and durability of your
vehicle’s mechanical components (engine
and gearbox), leave the engine running for
4 minutes before moving off.
Never leave the engine running in an
enclosed area without adequate ventilation:
internal combustion engines emit toxic
exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide.
Danger of poisoning and death!
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition.
Wait a few seconds before operating the
starter motor again. If the engine does not
start after several attempts, do not keep
trying: you risk damaging the starter motor
and the engine.

► Place the remote control inside the vehicle, in
the recognition zone.
► Press the " START/STOP" button.
The steering column unlocks and the engine
starts more or less instantly.
The warning lamp does not come on if the engine is already warm. In some
climatic conditions, it is advised to follow the
recommendations below:

In very severe wintry
conditions


(temperature below -23°C),
to ensure correct operation and preserve
the lifespan of the vehicle's mechanical
components, engine and gearbox, leave the
engine running for 4 minutes before moving
off.
Never leave the engine running in an
enclosed area without adequate ventilation:
internal combustion engines emit toxic
exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide.
Danger of poisoning and death!
For Diesel vehicles, when the
temperature is below zero,
starting will only occur once the pre-heating
warning lamp goes off.
If this warning lamp comes on after pressing
the "START/STOP" button, keep the brake
or clutch pedal depressed until the warning
lamp goes off, without pressing the "START/
STOP" button again, until the engine starts
and is running.
The "Keyless Entry and Start" system remote control must be within the
recognition zone.
Never leave the vehicle with the engine
running and with the remote control on your
person.
If the remote control leaves the recognition
zone, a message is displayed.
Move the remote control into the zone in
order to be able to start the engine.
If one of the starting conditions is not
met, a message is displayed on the
instrument panel. In some circumstances, you
must turn the steering wheel while pressing 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

Danger Never refuel the hydrogen tanks
after the indicated expiring date.
The expiring date of the hydrogen
tanks is indicated on a label located
on the inside of the fuel filler flap.
Refuelling 9
Danger Before refuelling, switch off
ignition and any external heaters
with combustion chambers.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling. 9
Danger Never refuel the vehicle after an
accident.
Seek the assistance of a
workshop. 9
Warning Only use fueling stations which
comply with the fueling standard
SAE J2601 or EN 17127.
Note
The system does not allow the
simultaneous refuelling and
charging of the vehicle.
Note
Once

refuelling has been enabled by
the system, the refuelling of the
vehicle must be started within five
minutes. If this time has been
expired, the refuelling process is
cancelled.
In this case, close the fuel filler flap,
if it has been opened before, and
start refueling process again. Before refuelling
In order to start the refuelling,
following preconditions must be
fullfilled:
●

The vehicle is stationary.
● The ignition is switched off.
● The parking brake is applied.
● The gear selector is in position P.
Refuelling 1. Press r. The system performs a
