Engine coolant temperature
indicator


With the engine running:
– In z one A, the temperature is correct.
–

In z
one B, the temperature is too high; the
associated warning lamp and the central STOP
warning lamp come on in red on the instrument
panel, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal.
You must stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to

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 the range
While the driving range is greater than 1,500 miles
(2,400 km), it is not displayed automatically.
You can view the range information by
pressing the "Check" button in the touch
screen’s Driving / Vehicle menu.
Actions required related to a lack of
AdBlue®
The following warning lamps light up when the
quantity of AdBlue® is lower than the reserve level
corresponding to a range of 1,500 miles (2,400
km).
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 an "Emissions 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,
while 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 an 
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented in X miles”
message is displayed, indicating the driving range
in miles or kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every 30
seconds. The alert is repeated when switching on
the ignition.
You can continue driving for up to 685 miles
(1,100 km) before the engine immobiliser system
is triggered.
Have the system checked by a dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Starting prevented
Whenever the ignition is switched on, the
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented” message is
displayed.
To be able to restart the engine, contact a

air outlets and the air extractor in the boot free
from obstructions.
► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located
on the dashboard; this sensor is used to
regulate the automatic air conditioning
system.
►  Operate the air conditioning system for at
least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to
keep it in perfect working order.
►  If the system does not produce cold air,
switch it off and contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep
gradient in high temperatures, switching off
the air conditioning increases the available
engine power, enhancing the towing capacity.
Avoid driving for too long with the
ventilation off or with prolonged operation
of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and
deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high
after the vehicle has stood for a long
time in the sunshine, air the passenger
compartment for a few moments.
Put the air flow control at a setting high
enough to quickly change the air in the
passenger compartment.
Condensation created by the air
conditioning results in a discharge of
water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly
normal.
Servicing the ventilation and air
conditioning system
►  Ensure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and have the filter
elements replaced regularly.
We recommend using a composite passenger
compartment filter. Thanks to its special
active additive, this type of filter helps to
purify the air breathed by the occupants
and keep the passenger compartment clean
(by reducing allergic symptoms, unpleasant
odours and greasy deposits).
►  To ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, have it checked
according to the recommendations in the
Maintenance and Warranty Guide.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems
only operate when the engine is running.
Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start
system to maintain a comfortable temperature
in the passenger compartment.
