may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and
the cooling fan could start at any time
(even with the ignition off).
Checking levels
Check the levels regularly, in line with the
manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up
if necessary, unless otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT

BlueHDi
and AdBlue
® additive
SCR technology
AdBlue® is the brand name of the solution
needed for operation of the SCR system.
BlueHDi vehicles have a specific AdBlue
®
additive tank with a capacity of 17 litres .
Filling of the AdBlue
® tank can be done using
5
or 10 litre containers or 1.89 litre bottles.
The objective of BlueHDi is to reduce by up
to 90% the emissions of NOx (nitrous oxides)
in the air, using a system that converts NOx
into water vapour and nitrogen in a dedicated
catalytic converter: SCR (Selective Catalytic
Reduction).
This objective meets the "Euro 6" emissions
standard adopted by the European Union
aimed at limiting the emissions of pollutants
from internal combustion engines.
The SCR technology used on BlueHDi engines
involves the injection of AdBlue
® fluid into the
exhaust system. Check that the product is within its use-by date.
Read the instructions on the label.
If you want to fill the AdBlue
® tank yourself,
ensure that you have a suitable filler pipe,
which may or may not be supplied with the
additive container.
This operation can also be carried out by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Advice
While the quantity of AdBlue® in the additive
t
ank is sufficient, no information is displayed.
On the other hand, once the additive level
drops to the quantity needed for a range of
1 500 miles (2 400 km) driving, you are warned
by different temporary signals (warning lamp,
message, audible signal).
When the AdBlue
® tank is empty, restarting
becomes impossible. Different levels of alert are triggered according
to the remaining driving range threshold.
You will be informed as each mileage threshold
is reached and the alerts will change from
temporary to permanent.
-
T he 1st alert is triggered at a remaining
driving range of 1 500 miles (2 400 km).
-
T
he 2
nd alert is triggered at a remaining
driving range of 375 miles (600 km).
Up to 0 miles, at which point it will be
impossible to restart the engine after a stop.
Range indicators
It is strongly recommended that you do
not wait for the successive alerts before
topping-up the AdBlue
® tank, but do this
as soon as possible.

To p p i n g - u p
If any AdBlue® fluid is split or splashed
on to you, wash immediately with cold
water or wipe yourself with a clean
damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it
off using a sponge and hot water.
Precautions to take
Use only AdBlue® additive that meets
the ISO 22241 standard.
The AdBlue
® additive is an urea-based
solution.
This liquid is non-flammable, colourless and
odourless.
To be kept in a cool area. After filling the additive tank, observe the
following procedure:
-
S
witch on the ignition without starting.
-
W
ait 10 seconds before starting the engine.
Never dispose of empty AdBlue®
containers and bottles in the household
waste.
Place them in a special container provided
for this purpose or take them to your dealer.
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on a flat and
level surface.
Parking
F Switch off the ignition and remove the key.
In the event of an over flow, wipe around the
filler mouth using a damp cloth.
In wintry conditions, ensure that
the temperature of the vehicle is
above -11°C. Other wise, by freezing,
the AdBlue
® cannot be poured into its
tank. Park your vehicle in a warmer
area for a few hours to allow the top-up
to be carried out.

F Pour the contents of the bottle into your vehicle's AdBlue® tank.
Important : if your vehicle's AdBlue
®
tank is completely empty - which is
confirmed by the alert messages and
the impossibility of starting the engine,
you must add at least 3.8 litres (so two
1.89 litre bottles).
If any additive is split or splashed, wash
immediately with cold water or wipe with
a damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it
off using a sponge and hot water.

Important: in the event of a top-up
after a breakdown because of a lack
of additive , signalled by the message
"Top up emissions additive: Starting
prevented", you must wait around
5
minutes before switching on the ignition,
without opening the driver's door,
locking the vehicle or introducing the
key into the ignition switch .
Switch on the ignition, then, after
10
seconds, start the engine.
Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of
children, in its original container.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity.
Never dilute the additive with water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel
fuel tank.
Never store containers or bottles of
AdBlue
® in your vehicle.
Recommendations on
storage
The SCR system includes an AdBlue®
tank heater that ensures operation of
the vehicle in normal conditions.
In exceptional situations, such as when
the vehicle is kept at temperatures
below -15°C (5°F) for a long period,
there may be an emission fault alert
related to freezing of the AdBlue
®
additive.
Park the vehicle in an area at a more
moderate temperature for a few hours
until the additive becomes a liquid
again.
The emissions warning lamp does not
go off immediately, but does so after a
few miles of driving.
Freezing of the AdBlue®
additive
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C (12.2° F)
a
nd deteriorates above 25°C (77°F).
It is recommended that containers and
bottles be stored in a cool area and
protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the additive can
be kept for at least a year.
Additive that has been frozen can be used
once it has thawed out in ambient air.
