Practical information
stations equipped with AdBlue® pumps specially
designed for passenger vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates
above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a
cool area and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for
at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has
completely thawed out at room temperature.
Never store AdBlue® containers in your
vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This fluid is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (when
kept in a cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and running water. In the
event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse
the eyes with large amounts of water or with an
eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek
medical attention if you feel a persistent burning
sensation or irritation.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high temperature, for
example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot
be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia
vapours have an irritant effect on mucous
membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Store AdBlue® out of the reach of
children, in its original container.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that
the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature
of the vehicle is above -11°C. Otherwise the
AdBlue
® may be frozen and so cannot be poured
into the tank. Park the vehicle in a warmer area
for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried
out.
Never pour the AdBlue® into the Diesel
fuel tank.
If any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the bodywork, rinse
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a
sponge and hot water.
Important: in the event of a top-up after
an AdBlue breakdown, you must wait
about 5
minutes before switching on the
ignition, without opening the driver's door,
unlocking the vehicle or bringing the
electronic key into the passenger
compartment.
Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10
seconds before starting the engine. â–º

Press the "
START/STOP" button to switch off
the engine.


► Turn the blue cap of the AdBlue® tank anti-
clockwise and remove it.
â–º

With a container of

AdBlue
®: after checking
the expiry date, read the instructions on the
label carefully before pouring the contents of the
container into the vehicle's AdBlue
® tank.
â–º
With an
AdBlue® pump: insert the nozzle and
fill the tank until the nozzle automatically cuts
out. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Practical information
7Bodywork
High-gloss paint
Do not use abrasive products, solvents,
petrol or oil to clean the bodywork.
Never use an abrasive sponge to clean
stubborn stains - risk of scratching the
paintwork!
Do not apply polish in strong sunshine, or to
plastic or rubber parts.
Use a soft cloth and soapy water or a pH
neutral product.
Gently wipe the bodywork with a clean
microfibre cloth.
Apply polish with the vehicle clean and dry.
Comply with the instructions for use stated on
the product.
Textured paint
This type of paint reacts under the effect of
light, through variations in appearance and
finish that highlight the lines and contours of the
vehicle. Its varnish is enriched with particles that
remain visible and create a unique satin effect
with relief. Its slightly granular texture gives it a
surprising touch.
Never attempt to clean without water.
Never clean your vehicle in an automatic
roller-brush car wash.
Never select the programme with hot wax
finish.
Never use high-pressure lances equipped
with brushes - risk of scratching paint!
Never apply glossy polish or preservatives to
the bodywork or alloy wheels; these products
irreversibly reveal glossy or spotted areas.
Choose high-pressure wash, or at least
high-flow water jet.
Rinse the vehicle with demineralised water.
Only a clean microfibre cloth
is recommended
for wiping the vehicle; pass it over the vehicle
without rubbing.
Carefully wipe off any fuel spilt on the
bodywork using a soft cloth, then allow to dry.
Clean off minor marks (for example, finger
marks), using a maintenance product
recommended by PEUGEOT.
Decals
(Depending on version)
Do not use a high-pressure washer to
clean the vehicle - risk of damaging or
detaching the decals!
Use a high-flow hose (temperature
between 25°C and 40°C).
Place the jet of water perpendicular to the
surface to be cleaned.
Rinse the vehicle with demineralised water.
Textile
The dashboard, door panels and seats may
contain parts made of textile material.
Maintenance
Do not use aggressive cleaning products
(e.g. alcohol, solvent or ammonia).
Do not use steam-cleaning systems - risk of
affecting the adhesion of the fabrics!
Remove dust from the textile parts
regularly with a dry cloth, soft brush or
vacuum cleaner
.
Rub down the
textile parts once per year with
a clean, damp cloth. After leaving overnight to
dry, brush with a soft-bristled brush.
Stain removal
Do not rub the stain or it may spread or
you may cause the substance to
penetrate the surface.
Act quickly by reducing the stain from its edges inwards.
Remove as much substance or solids as
possible using a spoon or spatula, and
remove
as much liquid as possible using
absorbent paper. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

Leather
Leather is a natural product. Appropriate regular
care is essential for its durability.
It must be protected and nourished using a
specific leather product, to keep it supple and
preserve its original appearance.
Do not clean leather using unsuitable
cleaning agents such as solvents,
detergents, petrol or pure alcohol.
When cleaning items partly made from
leather, take care not to damage the other
materials with the specific leather product.
Before cleaning greasy stains or liquids,
quickly mop up any surplus.
Before cleaning, wipe off any residues liable
to scuff the leather, using a cloth that has
been dampened with demineralised water
and thoroughly wrung out.
Clean leather using a soft cloth moistened
with soapy water or a pH-neutral product.
Dry with a soft, dry cloth. CarM an uals 2 .c o m

In the event of a breakdown
Deactivate certain driving aid functions
(Active Safety Brake, Adaptive cruise control,
etc.).
Do not exceed the maximum authorised
speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) or the maximum
distance of 50 miles (80 km).
Driving with more than one spare wheel of
this type is prohibited.
The wheel trim from the replaced wheel must
not be refitted.
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Have the tightening of the spare wheel's bolts
and its tyre pressure checked.
Have the punctured tyre examined. After
inspection, the technician will advise you on
whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must
be replaced.
Changing a bulb
In some weather conditions (e.g. low
temperature or humidity), misting on the
internal surface of the glass of the headlamps
and rear lamps is normal, and will disappear
after the lamps have been on for a few
minutes.
Never look too closely at the light beam
of LED technology lamps - risk of serious
eye injury!


The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:
–

Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive
cloth, nor with detergent or solvent
products.
–


Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH
neutral product.
–


When using a high-pressure washer on
persistent marks, do not keep the lance
directed towards the headlamps, lamps or
their edges for too long, so as not to damage
their protective coating and seals.
Changing a bulb must only be done with
the ignition off and after the headlamp /
lamp has been switched off for several
minutes - risk of serious burns!
Do not touch the bulb directly with your
fingers; use a lint-free cloth.
It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet
(UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the
headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb
of the same type and specification. To avoid
lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.
