During the permitted driving phase (between
685 and 0 miles (1,100 km and 0 km))
If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed
(after 30
miles (50 km) covered with the
permanent display of the message signalling
a fault), these warning lamps come on and the
AdBlue warning lamp flashes, accompanied by
an audible signal and the display of a message
(e.g. "Emissions fault: Starting prevented in
While driving, the message is displayed every
30
seconds while the fault with the SCR
emissions control system persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition.
You should go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise you will not be able to restart the
vehicle. Starting prevented
Each time the ignition is switched on, these
warning lamps come on and the AdBlue
warning lamp flashes, accompanied by an
audible signal and the display of the message
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented".
With an LCD instrument panel, "NO START IN"
is displayed.
You have exceeded the authorised driving
limit: the starting prevention system does
not allow the engine to be started. To
be able to restart the engine, you must
call on a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.Distance recorders
The total and trip distances are displayed for
thirty seconds when the ignition is switched off,

Gear shift indicator
This system reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Depending on the driving situation and the
equipment of your vehicle, the system can
recommend you to skip one or several gears.
You can follow this instruction without engaging
the intermediate gears.On certain BlueHDi Diesel versions
with manual gearbox, the system
may suggest changing into neutral
(N is displayed in the instrument
panel) so that the engine can go into
standby (STOP mode with Stop &
Start), in certain driving conditions.
Gear engagement recommendations
are only optional.
In fact, the configuration of the road,
the traffic density and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the
best gear.
The gear shift indicator system does not
replace the need for vigilance on the part
of the driver. Example:
-
Y
ou are in third gear.
-
Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.The information appears in the instrument panel in
the form of an arrow.
With a manual gearbox, the arrow may be
accompanied by the gear recommended.
The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the
driver’s requirements (power, acceleration,
b r a k i n g , e t c .) .
The system never suggests:
-
e
ngaging first gear,
-
enga
ging reverse gear.
This function cannot be deactivated.
-
T
he system may suggest that you engage a
higher gear.

vehicle to be viewed in the display screen using
a camera located at the rear of the vehicle.
The parking sensors in the rear and/or front
bumper complete the information on the view
from above the vehicle (right-hand part).
In addition to the view from above the vehicle
(right-hand part) several types of view can be
displayed (left-hand part):

Principle of operation
The images provided by the cameras may
be distorted by the environment (external
conditions, driving mode, etc.).
The presence of areas in shadow, bright
sunlight, or poor lighting conditions may
make the image dark and reduce contrast.
The system displays the contextual view (left-
hand part) as well as the view from above the
vehicle in its close surroundings.
AUTO mode is activated by default.
In this mode, the system chooses the best view
to display (standard or zoom) according to the
information received from the parking sensors.
The 180° view is only available via the menus. Using the rear camera, the vehicle's
surroundings are recorded during a
manoeuvre. An image from above your vehicle
in its close surroundings is reconstructed
(represented between the blue brackets) in real
time and as the vehicle progresses.
This representation facilitates the alignment of
your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles
close to the vehicle to be seen.
This image is automatically erased if the
vehicle remains stationary for too long.
The display disappears above
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
The system is automatically deactivated
about 7
seconds after coming out of
reverse or on opening a door, the boot.
Rear views
Engage reverse gear to activate the camera,
located on the boot or, rear door.
"Standard view"
The area to the rear of your vehicle is displayed
in the screen.
The blue outline represents the width of your
vehicle (with mirrors): its orientation depends
on the position of the steering wheel.
The red line represents a distance of 30
cm
from the rear bumper and the two blue lines,
1
m and 2 m respectively.
This view is available with AUTO view or by
selecting of the view in the change view menu.

Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT or a
qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
PEUGEOT or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units
as important as those in the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and offers very
specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the new Euro 6
standard,
without adversely affecting the performance or
fuel consumption of Diesel engines, PEUGEOT
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle filter (DPF)
for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
By using a fluid called AdBlue® containing
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85%
of nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® is contained in
a special tank holding about
22
litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of around
6,000-9,000
miles (10,000-15,000
km). An
alert system is triggered automatically when
the remaining range reaches 1,500
miles
(2,400
km), i.e. once the reser ve level has been
reached.
Several alerts are triggered successively during
the remaining 1,500
miles (2,400 km) before
the tank is empty.
If the estimated distance travelled by your
vehicle between two ser vices is greater than
12,000
miles (20,000
km), it will be necessary
to top up the AdBlue.
Practical information
Page 255 of 416

253
Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a system
required by regulations prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR system is defective, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no longer
meet the Euro 6
standard: your vehicle
becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault with the
SCR system, you must go to a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as
possible: after travelling the distance of
685
miles (1,100
km), a system preventing
the engine starting will be triggered
automatically.
In either case, a range indicator gives you
the distance you can travel before the
vehicle is immobilised.
For more information on the Warning
lamps and the associated alerts, refer to
the corresponding section.
Topping up AdBlue®
Given the capacity of the tank, it may be
necessary to top up the fluid between ser vices,
more particularly if an alert (warning lamps and
a message) signals the requirement.
You can go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If you envisage topping up yourself, please
read the following warnings carefully. Important
If your vehicle's AdBlue
® tank is
completely empty (which is confirmed by
the alert messages and the impossibility
of starting the engine) you must add at
least 3.8
litres (so two 1.89 litre bottles).
Freezing of the AdBlue
®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue
driving in all weather conditions.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This liquid is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (kept
in a cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and water. In the event
of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate) the
eyes with large amounts of water or with an eye
wash solution for at least 15
minutes. If you feel
a persistent burning sensation or irritation, get
medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high exterior temperature,
for example), the risk of release of ammonia
cannot be excluded: do not inhale the fluid.
Ammonia vapour has an irritant effect on
mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of children,
in its original container or bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity.
7
Practical information
Page 256 of 416

254
Use only AdBlue® fluid that meets the
ISO
22241
standard.
Never dilute AdBlue
® with water.
Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
Never top up from an AdBlue
® dispenser
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes below around -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended
that bottles or containers be stored in a cool
place and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year.
If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it
has completely thawed out.
Never store bottles or containers of
AdBlue
® in your vehicle.
In winter, check that the temperature
of the vehicle is above -11°C. If not, in
freezing weather, the AdBlue
® cannot be
poured into the tank. Park your vehicle
somewhere warmer for a few hours before
topping up.
The supply in a non-drip container or bottle
simplifies topping up. Containers are available
from a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Procedure
In cold weather, before per forming the top-up
ensure that the temperature of the vehicle is
above -11°C. Other wise the AdBlue
® may be
frozen and so cannot be poured into its tank.
Park your vehicle in a warmer area for a few
hours to allow the top-up to be carried out.
