These range indicators are present only on
BlueHDi Diesel versions.
Once the AdBlue
® tank is on reser ve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of the risk of non-
starting related to a lack of
AdBlue
®
The engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is
e m pt y.
In the event of a fault with the electric
indicator, the oil level is no longer
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the

®
The AdBlue® tank is empty: the starting
inhibition system required by legislation
prevents starting of the engine.
To be able to restart the engine, it is
essential to add at least 4
litres of AdBlue
®
to its tank.
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp flashes, associated with an audible
signal and the display of the message "Top up
AdBlue: Starting impossible".
In the event of a fault with the
SCR emissions control system
An engine immobiliser is activated

further 650
miles (1,100 km) following
confirmation of a fault with the SCR
emissions control system. Have the
system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop as soon as possible. In the event of the detection of a fault
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after self-diagnostic checks of the SCR
emissions control system.
The warning lamps come on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of the
message "Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered while driving as soon
as the fault is detected for the first time, then
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists.
When driving, the audible signal and the
message display are triggered every 60

miles
(100

km) until the level is topped up.
It is essential to top up as soon as possible and
before the tank is completely empty; other wise

harmful to the environment.
Take them to an approved collection
point. Lost keys
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer, taking with you
the vehicle's registration certificate, your
personal identification documents and if
possible, the label bearing the key code.
The PEUGEOT dealer will be able to look
up the key code and the transponder code
required to order a new key.
Closed vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make it
difficult for the emergency services to enter
the vehicle in an emergency.
As a safety precaution, never leave children
alone in the vehicle, except for a very short
period.
In all cases, it is essential to remove the key
from the ignition switch when leaving the
vehicle.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a
sensitive system; do not operate it while
it is in your pocket as there is a possibility
that it may unlock the vehicle, without you
being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your
remote control out of range and out of sight
of your vehicle. It may become inoperative.
It will then be necessary to reinitialise it
again.
No remote control can operate when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when
the ignition is switched off, except for
reinitialisation. Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the
electronic engine immobiliser system; this
could cause malfunctions.
Second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your
possession checked by a PEUGEOT dealer,
to ensure that only your keys can be used to
open and start the vehicle.
