Programmable heating
The programmable heating operates
independently of the engine.
With the engine off, it preheats the coolant
circuit to ensure optimal engine operating
temperature as soon as it is started up.
The programmable heating is switched on
by the long range remote control. It may be
immediate or deferred depending on the
programming.The volumetric alarm movement detector
may be disrupted by the programmable
heating air flows when it is operating.
To avoid any untimely triggering of the
alarm when using the programmable
heating, it is advisable that the volumetric
monitoring is deactivated. Adapting the programmable heating
enables you to use it to preheat the
passenger compartment of your vehicle.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Presentation
Remote control
Always switch off the programmable
heating when refuelling to avoid any risk of
fire or explosion.
The programmable heating is supplied by
the vehicle's fuel tank. Before use, ensure
that there is enough fuel left in the tank. If
the fuel in the tank is at the reser ve level,
we strongly recommend that you do not
programme the heating.
To avoid the risks of poisoning or
asphyxia, the programmable heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in a
closed environment such as a garage or
workshop which are not equipped with an
exhaust gas extraction system.
Do not park the vehicle on a flammable
sur face (dry grass, dead leaves, paper,
etc.) – Risk of fire!

Fuel
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 53 litres.
R eser ve level: 6 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached
in the fuel tank, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a
message and an audible signal.
When it first comes on, about
6
litres of fuel is left in the tank.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key, or the START/STOP button
if your vehicle has

K
eyless Entry and
Starting.
Refuelling
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 starting the engine. Once you have finished refuelling:
F

R
efit the filler cap.
F
T
urn it to the right.
F
C
lose the fuel filler flap.Misfuel prevention (Diesel)
(Depending on the country of sale.)
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids
the risk of engine damage that can result from
filling with the wrong fuel.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp
appears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by the display of a message and
an audible signal. When driving, this message
and audible signal are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards 0
.
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. 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
caused by an inrush of air. This vacuum is
entirely normal, resulting from the sealing of the
fuel system. To refuel in complete safety:
F
Y
ou must switch off the engine.
F
W
ith the vehicle unlocked, press the rear
part of the filler flap.
F
T
urn the filler cap to the left.
F
R
emove the filler cap and hook it onto the
clip located on the inside of the filler flap,
F
F
ill up the tank completely, but do not
continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the nozzle;
this could cause malfunctions.

Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into
your Diesel tank, it comes into contact with the
flap. The system remains closed and prevents
filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.It remains possible to use a fuel can to fill
the tank.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in
direct contact with the flap of the misfuel
prevention device and pour slowly.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention
device appears when the filler cap is removed.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may
make refuelling impossible.
Not all Diesel vehicles are fitted with
misfuel protection, so before travelling
abroad, we recommend that you check
with the PEUGEOT dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable for the
fuel pumps in the country in which you
intend to travel.
