associated warning lamp and the central STOP
warning lamp come on in red on the instrument
panel, accompanied by the display of a message
and an audible signal.
You must stop the vehicle as soon as it is
safe to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off the

AdBlue® range indicators
(BlueHDi)
The Diesel BlueHDi engines are equipped with
a system that associates the SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) emissions control system
and the Diesel particle filter (DPF) for the
treatment of exhaust gases. They cannot
function without AdBlue
® fluid.
When the level of AdBlue® falls below the
reserve level (between 1,500 and 0 miles (2,400
and 0

km)), a warning lamp lights up when
the ignition is switched on and an estimate
of the distance that can be travelled before
engine starting is prevented is displayed in the
instrument panel.
The engine starting prevention system required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is empty.
It is then no longer possible to start the
engine until the minimum level of AdBlue
® has
been topped up.
Manual display of the range
While the range is greater than 1,500 miles
(2,400 km), it is not displayed automatically.
The range information can be accessed via the "Check/Diagnostics" button in the
Driving/Vehicle menu of the touch screen.
Actions required related to a lack of AdBlue®
The following warning lamps light up when the
quantity of AdBlue® is lower than the reserve
level corresponding to a range of 1,500 miles
(2,400 km).
Together with the warning lamps, messages
regularly remind you of the need to top up to
avoid engine starting being prevented. Refer to
the Warning and indicator lamps section for
details of the messages displayed.
For more information on AdBlue®
(BlueHDi engines), and in particular on
topping up, refer to the corresponding section.

Practical information

► With the vehicle unlocked, press the rear
edge of the filler flap to open it (the filler cap is
built in).
►

T
ake care to select the pump that delivers the
correct fuel type for the vehicle's engine (see a
reminder label on the inside of the filler flap).
►

Introduce the filler nozzle and push it in as
far as possible before starting to refuel (risk of
blowback).
►


Fill the tank.
Do not continue past the 3rd cut-off of the
nozzle; as this may cause malfunctions.
►

Push the filler flap to close it.
The vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter

, a
device which helps to reduce the level of harmful
emissions in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, you must use unleaded
fuel.
The filler neck is narrower, allowing only
unleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
the vehicle, you must have the fuel
tank drained and filled with the correct fuel
before starting the engine.
Misfuel prevention (Diesel)
(Depending on country of sale.)
This mechanical device prevents filling the tank
of a Diesel vehicle with petrol.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention
device appears when the filler cap is removed.
Operation

When a petrol filler nozzle is inserted into the
fuel filler neck of a Diesel vehicle, 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 jerrycan
to fill the tank.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, it is advisable to
check with a PEUGEOT dealer if the vehicle
is suitable for the distribution equipment of the
countries visited.
Hybrid system
Electrical system
The electrical system of the hybrid system is
identified by orange cables and its elements are
marked with this symbol:

The hybrid engine uses a voltage of between 240 V and 400 V. This system
may be hot during and after switching off the
ignition. Observe the warning messages on
the labels in the vehicle, especially in the flap.
Any work on or modification to the vehicle's
electrical system (battery, connectors, orange
cables and components visible from inside or
outside) is strictly prohibited due to the risk of
serious burns or electrical shock that can lead
to death.
In the event of a problem, always contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.


This label is intended solely for use by firefighters responding to an incident
involving the vehicle and for maintenance
technicians.
In the event of an accident or impact
The electrical system or the battery
may be seriously damaged in the event of
an accident or impact involving the vehicle
underbody.
Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch
off the ignition.
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
In the event of exposure to a fire
Immediately exit and evacuate all
passengers from the vehicle. Never attempt
to fight the fire yourself - risk of electrocution!
You must immediately contact the emergency
services, informing them that the incident
involves a hybrid vehicle.
