Practical information
Load reduction mode
System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as air conditioning,
heated rear screen, etc.
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
Energy economy mode
System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conserve a sufficient level
of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can still use
functions such as the audio and telematics
system, windscreen wipers, dipped beam
headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a
maximum combined duration of about forty
minutes.
Switching to this mode
A message appears in the instrument panel
screen indicating that the vehicle has switched
to economy mode and the active functions are
put on standby.
If a telephone call is being made at this
time, it will be maintained for around
10 minutes with the Bluetooth hands-free
system of your audio system.
Exiting the mode
These functions will be automatically restored
the next time the vehicle is used.
A flat battery prevents the engine from
starting.
For more information on the 12 V battery,
refer to the corresponding section.
In order to restore the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it run:
- for less than ten minutes, to use the
equipment for approximately five minutes,
- for more than ten minutes, to use the
equipment for up to approximately thirty
minutes.
Let the engine run for the duration specified to
ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the
engine in order to charge the battery.

Practical information
Changing a window wiper
This position permits release of the windscreen
wiper blades.
It is used for cleaning or replacing the wiper
blades. It can also be useful, in winter, to
release the wiper blades from the windscreen.
To move the wiper blades to the vertical
position:
F Operate the wiper stalk within one minute
after switching off the ignition to position the
wiper blades vertically on the windscreen.
To return them to the park position:
F Switch on the ignition and operate the wiper
stalk.
Removing a wiper blade
F Lift the corresponding wiper arm.
F Unclip and remove the wiper blade.
Fitting the new wiper blade
F Put the corresponding new wiper blade in
place and clip it.
F Fold down the wiper arm carefully.
To maintain the effectiveness of the wiper
blades, it is advisable to:
- handle them with care,
- clean them regularly using soapy water,
- avoid using them to retain cardboard on the
windscreen,
- replace them at the first signs of wear.
Fitting roof bars
When fitting transverse roof bars, take care to
position them correctly on the retaining pins
located in the door apertures.
For more information, contact a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars and
the vehicle's anchorage points.
For transporting objects which are longer
than the vehicle, refer to local legislation.

145
Practical information
As a safety measure and to avoid
damaging the roof, it is essential to use
the transverse bars approved for your
vehicle.
Observe the instructions on fitting and use
contained in the guide supplied with the
roof bars.
Recommendations
Distribute the load uniformly, taking care
to avoid overloading one of the sides.
Arrange the heaviest part of the load as
close as possible to the roof.
Lash the load securely.
Drive gently: the vehicle will be more
susceptible to the effects of side winds
and the stability of the vehicle may be
affected.
On a long journey, check the security of
the load at every stop.
Remove the roof bars once they are no
longer needed.
Bonnet
The location of the interior bonnet release
lever prevents opening of the bonnet when
the left-hand front door is shut.
When the engine is hot, handle the
exterior safety catch and the stay with
care (risk of burns), using the protected
area.
When the bonnet is open, take care not to
damage the safety catch.
Do not open the bonnet under very windy
conditions.
The cooling fan may start after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
Because of the presence of electrical
equipment under the bonnet, it is
recommended that exposure to water
(rain, washing, etc.) be limited.
Opening
F Open the left-hand front door.
F Pull the release lever A, located at the
bottom of the door aperture, towards you.
Before doing anything under the bonnet,
deactivate the Stop & Start system to
avoid the risk of injury related to an
automatic change to START mode.

Practical information
Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with
the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them
up if necessary, unless otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The fluid must comply with the
manufacturer's recommendations 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
or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop and dispose
of it in the containers reserved for this
purpose.
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles equipped with an
electric gauge, or using the dipstick.
To ensure that the reading is correct, your
vehicle must be parked on a level surface
with the engine stopped for more than
30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two services (or oil changes). PEUGEOT
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
Checking using the dipstick
The location of the dipstick is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and
pull it out completely.
F Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean
non-fluffy cloth.
F Refit the dipstick and push fully down, then
pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between marks A and B.
A = MAX
B = MIN
If you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not start the engine.
- If the level is above the MAX mark (risk of
damage to the engine), contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
- If the level is below the MIN mark, you must
top up the engine oil.
7
149
Practical information
Topping up the engine oil level
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.
F Unscrew the oil filler cap to access the filler
opening.
F Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any
spills on engine components (risk of fire).
F Wait a few minutes before checking the
level again using the dipstick.
F Add more oil if necessary.
F After checking the level, carefully refit the oil
filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
After topping up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel is not
valid during the 30 minutes after topping
up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emissions control system, never use
additives in the engine oil.
Brake fluid level
The brake fluid level should be close
to the "MAX" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.
Changing the coolant
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the interval for this operation.
Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up the fluid
between two services.
The check and top-up must only be done with
the engine cold.
A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
The coolant level should be close to the "MAX"
mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark,
it is essential to top up.
When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying out any
work.
To avoid the risk of scalding when you need to
top up in an emergency, place a cloth around
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up to the required level.
The cooling fan may start after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
Fluid specification
This fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Oil grade
Before topping up the oil or changing the oil,
check that the oil is the correct grade for your
engine and conforms to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
150
Practical information
Screenwash fluid level
Top up to the required level when
necessary.
Fluid specification
The screenwash fluid must be topped up with a
ready for use mix.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a liquid
with antifreeze must be used that is appropriate
for the prevailing conditions, in order to
preserve the elements of the system (pump,
tank, ducts, etc.).
Filling with pure water is prohibited under all
circumstances (risk of freezing, limestone
deposits, etc.).
Diesel fuel additive level
(Diesel with particle filter)
The additive reservoir low level is
indicated by fixed illumination of this
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message that
the particle filter additive level is
too low.
Topping up
The reservoir must be topped up without delay
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Level of AdBlue
An alert is triggered once the reserve level is
reached.
To avoid the vehicle being immobilised as per
regulations, you must top up with AdBlue.
For more information on AdBlue
®
and the SCR
system, and in particular topping it up, refer to
the corresponding section.
Checks
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule and according
to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release terminals)
and that the connections are clean.
For more information and the precautions
to take before starting work on the 12 V
battery, refer to the corresponding
section.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.

151
Practical information
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the manufacturer’s
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often if
necessary.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer’s
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the constant
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by an alert message.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed
of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the
warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates
a low additive level.
For more information on Checking the
levels and particularly on the level of
Diesel additive, refer to the corresponding
section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell, which
is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does not
affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT or a
qualified workshop.
152
Practical information
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
Checking this system must be done by a
PEUGEOT dealer 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)
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue
®
that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85%
of nitrogen oxide (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
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 system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle filter (DPF)
for the treatment of exhaust gases.
The AdBlue
®
is contained in a special tank with
a capacity of around 17 litres. An alert system
is triggered automatically once the reserve
level is reached: you can then drive for a further
1,500 miles (2,400 km) before the tank is
emptied completely.
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 a running distance of
685 miles (1,100 km), a system will be
triggered automatically to prevent engine
starting.
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.
7
153
Practical information
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
(store 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. If a burning sensation or irritation
persists, get medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high ambient
temperature, for example), the risk of releasing
ammonia cannot be discounted: 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.
Never dilute AdBlue
®
with water.
Never pour AdBlue
®
into the Diesel fuel
tank.
Containers are available from a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualified workshop.
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 containers or bottles of
AdBlue
®
in your vehicle.
Do not dispose of AdBlue
®
bottles or
containers in the household waste.
Place them in a container provided
for this purpose or take them to your
dealer.
Use only AdBlue
®
fluid that meets the
ISO 22241 standard.
154
Practical information
Topping up with AdBlue
®
If you wish to top up yourself, please read
the following warnings carefully.
In cold weather, before performing the top-up
ensure that the temperature is above -11°C.
Otherwise the AdBlue
®
may be frozen and so
cannot be poured into the tank.
Park your vehicle in a warmer area for a few
hours to allow the top-up to be carried out.
F Before topping up, ensure that the vehicle is
parked on a flat and level surface.
F Switch off the ignition to stop the engine
and remove the key from the switch.

confirmed by the alert messages and the
impossibility of starting the engine – you
must add at least 4 litres and no more than
10 litres.
F After emptying the container or bottle, wipe
away any spillage around the tank filler
using a damp cloth.
If any fluid is spilt or splashed, wash
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off
using a sponge and hot water.
After refilling
Through the boot (1.6 litre
BlueHDi Euro 6.1)
F Refit the blue cap to the tank filler and turn it
a 6
th
of a turn clockwise, to its stop.
F Refit the black cap and turn it a quarter of a

156
Practical information
Advice on care
General recommendations on the care and
maintenance of your vehicle are given in the
Warranty and Maintenance Record.
Matt paint
If your vehicle is coated with a clear, matt
varnish, it is essential that you take the
following instructions into account to avoid
damaging the paint, following an inappropriate
treatment. These instructions are also valid for
the alloy wheels coated in a clear, matt varnish.
Textured paint
The textured paint reacts to light with variations
of appearance and finish that emphasise the
car's lines and form. This paint coating has
particles that remain visible and create a
unique satin relief effect. Its lightly granulated
texture gives it a surprising feel.
Observe the following recommendations
to avoid damaging the paint finish:
- Never clean the vehicle without water.
- Never clean your vehicle in an
automatic roller-brush car wash.
- Never select the program with hot wax
finish.
- Never use a high pressure jet washer
fitted with a brush as this may scratch
the paint surface.
- Never polish the body or the alloy
wheels. This makes the paint bright.
- Do not use paint restorers, abrasive
or polishing products, or bright paint
preservers (wax polish, for example).
These products are only suitable for
bright finishes. Using them on vehicles
finished with matt paint seriously
damages the surface finish of the
vehicle, resulting in particular in the
appearance of irreversible bright or
stained areas.
On the other hand:
- Choose a high pressure wash, or at least a
high-flow water jet.
- Rinse the vehicle with demineralised water.
- Gently wipe the body with a clean
microfibre cloth.
- Carefully wipe off any fuel spilt on the body
using a soft cloth, then allow to dry.
- Clean off minor marks (for example, finger
marks), using the maintenance product
recommended by PEUGEOT.
It is always preferable to have paint
repairs carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer
or a qualified workshop.

the first press).
158
In the event of a breakdown
Temporary puncture repair kit
The temporary puncture repair kit consists of a
compressor and a sealant cartridge, it allows
the temporary repair of a tyre so that you can
drive to the nearest garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which
could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.
You can also use the compressor, without
injecting sealant, to check and occasionally
adjust the tyre pressures.
F Operate the starter to start the engine (if the
engine does not start at the first attempt,
wait around 15 seconds before trying
again).
F If the engine does not start after a few
attempts, operate the priming pump again
then start the engine.
F Put the cover in place and clip it in.
F Close the bonnet.
Access to the kit
This kit is installed in the under floor storage,
under the boot floor.
The vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair.
Kit contents
1.
12 V compressor, with built-in pressure
gauge.
2.
Bottle of sealant, with built-in hose.
3.
Speed limit sticker.
The speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the driver's
