Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by "OIL- -" flashing or the display
of a message.
Contact the dealer network or a qualified workshop.
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
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
For more information on Checking levels
and, in particular, the oil level, refer to the
corresponding section.
AdBlue® fluid range indicators
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 simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed.
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.
Range greater than 1,500 miles (2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of range in the instrument
panel.
Above around 3,000 miles (5,000 km), the
value is not defined. With the type 2 instrument panel, pressing this
button temporarily shows the driving range.
Range between 1,500 miles and 370 miles (2,400 and 600 km)
When driving, the message is displayed every
190 miles (300 km) until the level is topped up.
The reser ve level has been reached; it is
recommended that you top up as soon as
possible.
Go to a member of the dealer network or a
qualified workshop to have the AdBlue
® topped
up.
You can also top up the tank yourself.
For more information on AdBlue
® and the
SCR system , and in particular on topping
up the AdBlue
®, refer to the corresponding
section.
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and a message indicating the remaining
range expressed in miles or kilometres before
engine starting is prevented.

Range below 370 miles (600 km)
When driving, this message is displayed every
30 seconds until the AdBlue level has been
topped up.
Go to a member of the dealer network or a
qualified workshop to have the AdBlue
® topped
up.
You can also top up the tank yourself.
Other wise you will not be able to restart the
vehicle.
For more information on the AdBlue
®
(BlueHDi engines) , and in particular on
topping up, refer to the corresponding
section. Breakdown due to a lack of AdBlue
®
The AdBlue® tank is empty: the starting
inhibition system required by legislation
prevents starting of the engine.
To be able to start the engine, we
recommend that you call on a dealer or a
qualified workshop for the top-up required.
If you carry out the top-up yourself, it is
essential to add at least 4 litres of AdBlue
®
to the tank.
For more information on the AdBlue
® (BlueHDi
engines) , and in particular on topping up, refer
to the corresponding section.
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp flashes and the Service warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by an audible signal
and the temporary display of a message in the
instrument panel indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres before engine
starting is prevented.

In the event of a fault with the SCR
emissions control system
A system that prevents engine starting is
activated automatically from 680 miles
(1,100 km) after confirmation of a fault with
the SCR emissions control system.
Have the system checked by the dealer
network 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.
These warning lamps come on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of the
message "Emissions control 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.

lamps flash and the UREA warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by an audible signal
and the temporary display of a message in the
instrument panel indicating that starting the
vehicle has been prevented. If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed
(after around 30 miles (50 km) covered with the
permanent display of the message signalling
a fault), these warning lamps come on and the
UREA warning lamp flashes, associated with
an audible signal and the display of a message
indicating the remaining range expressed in
miles or kilometres.
