Practical information
7Closing
► Lower the bonnet and release it near the end
of its travel.
►

Check the locking.
Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is strongly
recommended that exposure to water (rain,
washing, etc.) be limited.

For more information on the Charging system
(Electric), refer to the corresponding section.
Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in
accordance with the Manufacturer's service
schedule. Top them up if required, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.

190
Practical information
The fluids must comply with the Manufacturer's requirements and with
the vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even with
the ignition off).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers reserved
for this purpose at a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The level is checked, with the engine having been switched off for at least 30
minutes and on level ground, either using the oil
level indicator in the instrument panel when the
ignition is switched on (for vehicles equipped
with an electric gauge), or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
services (or oil changes). It is recommended
that you check the level, and top up if necessary,
every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emissions control system,
never use additives in the engine oil.
Checking using the dipstick
For the location of the dipstick, please refer
to the illustration of the corresponding engine
compartment.
►

Grasp the dipstick by its coloured grip and
pull it out completely

.
►

Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean,
lint-free cloth.


► Reinsert the dipstick and push fully down,
then pull it out again to visually check the oil
level: the correct level is between marks

A
(max)
and
B (min).
Do not start the engine if the level is:
–

above mark
A: contact a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
–

below mark

B
: top up the engine oil
immediately.
Oil grade
Before topping up or changing the
engine oil, check that the oil is suitable
for your engine and complies with the
recommendations in the service schedule
supplied with the vehicle (or available
from your PEUGEOT dealer or qualified
workshop).
Use of non-recommended oil may invalidate
your warranty in the event of engine failure.
Topping up the engine oil level
For the location of the engine oil filler cap, please
refer to the corresponding engine compartment
illustration.
►

Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills
on engine components (risk of fire).
►


W
ait a few minutes before checking the level
again using the dipstick.
►

T
op up the level if necessary.
►

After checking the level, carefully screw the
oil filler cap back on

and replace the dipstick in
its tube.
The oil level indication displayed on the instrument panel when the ignition is
switched on is not valid for 30 minutes
following an addition of oil.

210
In the event of a breakdown
Wash your hands afterwards.
Electronic control units/LED
technology headlamps
Never connect the negative jump lead to the
metal part of the electronic control units or at
the back of the headlamps.
Risk of destroying the electronic control units
and/or headlamps!
Connect to the remote earth point provided
for this purpose.
Frozen battery
Never try to charge a frozen battery - risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer or by a qualified workshop,
who will verify that the internal components
have not been damaged and that the case
has not cracked, which could lead to a risk of
leakage of toxic and corrosive acid.
Automatic gearbox
Never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Electric vehicles
Flat accessory battery
It is no longer possible to start the motor
or recharge the traction battery.
Precautions before working on the
accessory battery
Select mode
P, switch off the ignition, check
that the instrument panel is off and that the
vehicle is not being charged.
Jump-starting another vehicle
Do not use the accessory battery to
jump-start another vehicle or to charge
another vehicle's battery.
Symbols
No sparks or naked flames, no smoking.
Always protect your eyes. Explosive gases can cause blindness and injury.
Keep the vehicle's battery out of the reach
of children.
The vehicle's battery contains sulphuric acid which can make you go blind or
cause severe burns.
For more information, refer to the
handbook.
Explosive gases can be present close to
the battery.
For petrol/Diesel versions
Procedure for starting the engine using another
battery or for charging a discharged battery.
Accessing the battery
The battery is located under the bonnet.


For access to the (+) terminal:
► Release the bonnet by pulling the internal
release lever
, then the external safety catch.
►

Raise the bonnet.
(+)

Positive terminal with a quick-release
terminal.
(-) Negative terminal.
As the battery's negative terminal is not
accessible, a remote earth point is located near
the battery.
Starting using another battery
If the vehicle's battery is flat, the engine can be
started using a backup battery (either external or
from another vehicle) and jump leads or using a
battery booster.
Never start the engine by connecting a
battery charger.
Never use a 24
V or higher battery booster.
Check beforehand that the backup battery
has a nominal voltage of 12
V and a capacity

215
In the event of a breakdown
8► Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if the
vehicle has one.
►

Connect the cables of charger B

as follows:
•

the positive (+) red cable to the (+) terminal
of battery

A,
•

the negative (-) black cable to earth point C


on the vehicle.
►

Open the driver's door to wake up the vehicle
(or turn the ignition on without pressing the
brake pedal

).
The hybrid system will automatically start
charging the 48
V battery after 1 minute with
a 12
V power supply higher than 13.5 V. The
current supplied by the battery charger should be
about 30-50A.
When the appropriate energy level is reached in
the 48
V battery, the hybrid system automatically
stops the charging process of the 48
V battery.
The current supplied by the 48
V battery should
be about 10-15

A.
►


At the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B

before disconnecting the cables
from 12
V battery A.
►

Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
the vehicle has one.
►


Operate the starter on the vehicle and let the
engine run.
►


W
ait for it to return to idle.
►

Allow the engine to run for at least
30

minutes, with the vehicle stationary, so that
the 48
V battery reaches an adequate state of
charge.For rechargeable hybrid
versions
The rechargeable hybrid system has two accessory batteries: one at the front and one at
the centre of the vehicle.
Replacing the accessory batteries
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
