Unlocking and partially opening
the boot
BOOT Boot anti-theft protection
The boot is designed to remain secure,
even in the "cabriolet" confi guration, if
the vehicle is locked.
So, when the vehicle is locked and the
roof is open, the boot cannot be un-
locked:
- by means of the interior door open- ing control,
- by pressing the manual centralised control A , when the key is not in the
ignition switch.
Opening

 After unlocking the boot or the vehi-
cle using the remote control or the
key, press the opening control, then
raise the boot lid.
When the selective unlocking is ac-
tivated, the boot can be opened at
the second press of the unlocking
button on the remote control.

 Press this button for more
than two seconds to un-
lock the boot. The boot
opens slightly.
This action also unlocks the doors.
If a battery failure occurs, the boot
is locked. Consult a PEUGEOT
dealer. Closing

ACCESS
The key cannot be removed from
the lock until the cap is put back on
the tank.
Opening the cap may trigger an in-
rush of air. This vacuum, which is
completely normal, is caused by
the sealing of the fuel system.
FUEL TANK

Capacity of the tank: approximately
60 litres. To fi ll the tank safely:

 the engine must be switched off,

 open the fuel fi ller fl ap,

 insert the key in the cap, then turn it
to the left,
When refueling is complete:

 put the cap back in place,

 turn the key to the right, then remove
it from the cap,

 close the fi ller fl ap.

 remove the cap and secure it on the
hook, located on the inside of the
fl ap,

 fi ll the tank, but do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle ;
this could cause malfunctions.
Low fuel level
Refueling
A label affi xed to the inside of the fi ller
fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used according to your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be add-
ed in order to be registered by the fuel
gauge. When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp comes on in the
instrument panel, accompanied
by an audible signal and a mes-
sage in the multifunction screen. When
the lamp fi rst comes on, there is approxi-
mately
6 litres of fuel remaining.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the
ignition is switched on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message. When
driving, this audible signal and message
are repeated with increasing frequency,
as the fuel level drops towards "0" .
You must refuel to avoid running out of
fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also
to the "Checks" section.
Operating fault
A malfunction of the fuel gauge is indi-
cated by the return to zero of the fuel
gauge needle.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly com-
patible with E10 type petrol biofuels
(containing 10 % ethanol), conforming
to European standards EN 228 and
EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for ve-
hicles marketed for the use of this type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of
the ethanol must comply with European
standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up
to 100 % ethanol (E100 type). Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly com-
patible with biofuels which conform to
current and future European standards
(Diesel fuel which complies with stan-
dard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which
complies with standard EN 14214)
available at the pumps (containing up
to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in cer-
tain Diesel engines; however, this use
is subject to strict application of the
special servicing conditions. Consult a
PEUGEOT dealer.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or dilu-
ted, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohi-
bited (risk of damage to the engine and
fuel system).
