129
Fuel
Capacity of the tank: 50 litres approximately.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached
this warning light comes on in the
instrument panel.
When it first comes on, around 5 litres of fuel
remain in the tank.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel) , refer to the corresponding section.
Opening
F Raise the lever.
Refuelling
A label on the inside of the fuel filler flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine type.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres, in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler cap may create a noise
a caused by an inrush of air. This vacuum
is entirely normal and results from the
sealing of the fuel system. F

O
pen the filler cap by turning it a 1/4 turn to
the left.
F
R
emove the filler cap and hang it on its
carrier (on the filler flap).
F F ill the tank. Do not continue past the third
cut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause
malfunctions.
F

R
eplace the filler cap turning it a 1/4 turn to
the right.
F

P
ush the fuel filler flap to close it.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have the fuel
tank drained and filled with the correct
fuel before star ting the engine.

Practical information

Topping-up the AdBlue®
Filling the AdBlue® tank is an operation
included in every routine service on your
vehicle by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Nevertheless, given the capacity of the tank, it
may be necessary to top-up the fluid between
services, more particularly if an alert (warning
lamps and a message) signals the requirement.
You can go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself, please
read the following warnings carefully.
Freezing of the AdBlue
®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue
driving in all weather conditions.
Precautions in use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This liquid is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (kept
in a cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and water. In the event
of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate) the
eyes copiously under running water or with an
eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. If
a burning sensation or irritation persists, get
medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high ambient
temperature, for example), the risk of release of
ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale the
fluid. Ammonia vapour has an irritant effect on
mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of children,
in its original container or bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity. Use only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the
ISO 22241 standard.
Never dilute AdBlue
® with water.
Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
The supply in a non-drip container or bottle
simplifies topping-up. You can obtain 1.89 litre
(half a US gallon) bottles or 5 litre containers
from a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Never top-up from an AdBlue
® dispenser
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.

Practical information

145
Coolant level
The check and top-up must only be done with
the engine cold.
A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
The coolant level should be close to the "MA X"
mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark,
it is essential to top-up.
When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying out any
work.
To avoid the risk of scalding when you need to
top-up in an emergency, place a cloth around
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top-up the level.Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up the fluid
between two services.
Fluid specification
The fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
Screenwash fluid level
Top up the level when necessary.
Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
In wintry conditions, it is recommended that you
use an ethyl alcohol or methanol based fluid.
Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle filter)
A low additive level is indicated by illumination
of the service warning light, accompanied by an
audible warning and a message in the screen
(if a display screen is fitted).
To p p i n g u p
This additive must be topped-up by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop and dispose of in
the containers made available for this
purpose.

Checks
Unless otherwise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's
service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
12 V battery
For more information and the precautions to
take before starting work on the 12 V batter y,
refer to the corresponding section. The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release
terminals) and that the connections
are clean.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often if
necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours. Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Oil filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
Particle filter (Diesel)
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at
least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning light
goes off.
If the warning light stays on, this indicates a low
additive level; refer to “Diesel additive level”
section.
or
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the fixed
illumination of this warning light
accompanied by a warning message
in the screen (if a display screen is
fitted).
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell, which
is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does not
affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment.

After a tyre repair, the warning
light will remain on until the
system is reset.
For more information on Tyre under-
inflation detection , refer to the
corresponding section.
Should the pressure of one or more tyres
be adjusted, it is necessary to reinitialise
the under-inflation detection system.
For more information on Under-inflation
detection , refer to the corresponding
section.

vehicle to drop.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.Do not use a jack other than the one
supplied by the manufacturer.

an automatic gearbox. Wheel with hub cap
When removing the wheel
, first remove
the hub cap using the wheel wrench1 by
pulling at the valve aperture.
When refitting the wheel , after tightening
the wheel bolts, refit the hub cap, starting
by placing its aperture in line with the
valve and then pushing it into place all
round its edge with the palm of your hand.
