indicator lamps). Certain lamps light up in two
ways (fixed or flashing) and/or in several colours.
Associated warnings
The illumination of a lamp may be accompanied
by an audible signal and/or a message displayed
in a screen.
Relating the type of alert to the operating status
of the vehicle allows you to determine whether
the situation is normal or whether a fault has
occurred: refer to the description of each lamp for
further information.

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.
For more information on AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines), and in particular on topping up,
refer to the corresponding section.
