Fuel tank
Low fuel level Refuelling
When the low fuel level is reached, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message in the multifunction screen. When the lamp first comes on, there is approximately 6 litres of fuel remaining. Until sufficient fuel has been added, this warning lamp appears every time the ignition is switched on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message. When driving, this audible signal and message are repeated with increasing frequency, as the fuel level drops towards "0" .
Capacity of the tank: approximately 60 litres.
The key cannot be removed from the lock until the cap is put back on the tank. Opening the cap may trigger an inrush of air. This vacuum, which is completely normal, is caused by the sealing of the fuel system.
You must refuel to avoid running out of fuel. If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also to the "Checks" section.
A label affixed to the inside of the filler flap reminds you of the type of fuel to be used according to your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be added in order to be registered by the fuel gauge.

Do not cover the sunshine sensor, coupled with the rain sensor and located in the centre of the windscreen behind the rear view mirror; the associated functions would no longer be controlled.
When a low level of ambient light is detected by a sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps, sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are switched on automatically, without any action on the part of the driver. They can also come on if rain is detected, at the same time as automatic operation of the windscreen wipers. As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers are switched off, the lamps are switched off automatically.

The alert is given by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal, and depending on equipment, the display of a message.
Under-inflation alert
The flashing and then fixed illumination of the under-inflation warning lamp accompanied by the illumination of the "service" warning lamp indicates a fault with the system.
Operating fault
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres, the symbol or the message appears, according
to equipment, to identify it.
Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering movements or harsh brake applications. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so. In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (according to equipment), or if you have a compressor, the one in the temporary puncture repair kit for example, check the four tyre pressures when cold, or if it is not possible to check the tyre pressures at the time, drive carefully at reduced speed.
The loss of pressure detected does not always lead to visible deformation of the tyre. Do not rely on just a visual check.
The alert is maintained until the tyre or tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired or replaced. The spare wheel (space-saver type or a steel rim) does not have a sensor.
This alert is also displayed when one or more wheels is not fitted with a sensor (for example, a space-saver or steel spare wheel).
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures is not assured.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked or, following the repair of a puncture, to have the original wheel, equipped with a sensor, refitted.
