Peugeot 308 SW BL (2013 year). Manual — part 7

ACCESS

PANORAMIC SUNROOF

Component which has a tinted glass

panoramic surface to increase the light

and visibility in the passenger compart-

ment.
Fitted with an electric blind in several

sections to improve temperature and

noise related comfort.

If the blind meets an obstacle dur-

ing operation, you must reverse the

movement of the blind. To do this,

press the control concerned.
When the driver operates the blind

control, he must ensure that no one

is preventing correct closing of the

blind.
The driver must ensure that pas-

sengers use the blind correctly.
Be aware of children when operat-

ing the blind.

manual mode

) Pull or press control A gently.
The blind stops when you release

the control.

automatic mode

) Pull or press control A fi rmly.
One press opens or closes the

blind completely.

Pressing the control again stops

the blind.

Safety anti-pinch
In automatic mode and at the end of

its travel, if the blind meets an obstacle

while closing it stops and moves back

slightly.

One-touch electric blind

There are two options for opening and

closing:

Reinitialisation: if the blind's sup-

ply is cut off while it is moving, the

safety anti-pinch must be reinitial-

ised:
) press the control until the blind

is fully closed,

) continue to press for at least

3 seconds. A slight movement

of the blind will then be notice-

able, confi rming the reinitialisa-

tion.

If the blind re-opens during a clos-

ing manoeuvre, and immediately

after it stops:
) pull the control until the blind is

fully open,

) press the control until the blind

is fully closed.

The safety anti-pinch function is

not operational during these op-

erations.

ACCESS

More than 5 litres of fuel must be add-

ed in order to be registered by the fuel

gauge.

FUEL TANK

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 cause an in-

rush of air. This vacuum, which is

perfectly normal, is caused by the

sealing of the fuel system.

Low fuel level

Operating fault

A fuel gauge malfunction is indicated by

the return of the fuel gauge needle to

zero.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer

or a qualifi ed workshop.

Filling

A label affi xed to the inside of the fl ap

reminds you of the type of fuel to be

used according to your engine.

When the low fuel level is

reached, this warning lamp

comes on on the instrument

panel, accompanied by an

audible signal and an alert message.

When it fi rst comes on, you have ap-

proximately 6 litres of fuel remaining.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added, this

warning lamp comes on every time the

ignition is switched on, accompanied

by an audible signal and a message.

When driving, this audible signal and

the display of the alert message are re-

peated with increasing frequency as the

fuel level drops towards "0" .
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid run-

ning out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also

to the "Checks" section.

With Stop & Start, never refuel with

the system in STOP mode; you

must switch off the ignition with the

key.

) remove the cap and secure it on the

hook, located on the inside of the

fl ap,

) fi ll the tank, but do not continue after

the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle ; this could

cause malfunctions.

When fi lling is complete:
) refi t the cap,
) turn the key to the right, then remove

it from the cap,

) close the fl ap.

To fi ll the tank safely:
) it is essential that the engine is

switched off,

) open the fuel fi ller fl ap,
) insert the key in the cap, then turn it

to the left,

ACCESS

Quality of the fuel used for

petrol engines

The petrol engines are perfectly com-

patible with E10 or E24 type petrol

biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % etha-

nol), conforming to European standards

EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %

ethanol) are reserved exclusively for ve-

hicles marketed for the use of this type

of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of

the ethanol must comply with European

standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are

marketed to run on fuels containing up

to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).

Quality of the fuel used for

Diesel engines

The Diesel engines are perfectly com-

patible with biofuels which conform to

current and future European standards

(Diesel fuel which complies with stand-

ard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which

complies with standard EN 14214)

available at the pumps (containing up

to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in cer-

tain Diesel engines; however, this use

is subject to strict application of the

special servicing conditions. Contact a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-

shop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel

(vegetable or animal oils, pure or dilut-

ed, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited

(risk of damage to the engine and fuel

system).

ACCESS

MISFUEL PREVENTION

(DIESEL) *

Mechanical device which prevents fi lling

the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It

avoids the risk of engine damage that can

result from fi lling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the fi ller neck, the misfuel

prevention device appears when the

fi ller cap is removed.

Operation

When a petrol fi ller nozzle is introduced

into the fuel fi ller neck of your Diesel

vehicle, it comes into contact with the

fl ap. The system remains closed and

prevents fi lling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel

type fi ller nozzle.

It remains possible to use a fuel

can to fi ll the tank.
In order to ensure a good fl ow of

fuel, do not place the nozzle of the

fuel can in direct contact with the

fl ap of the misfuel prevention de-

vice and pour slowly.

Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may

be different in other countries, the

presence of the misfuel prevention

device may make refuelling impos-

sible.
Before travelling abroad, we rec-

ommend that you check with the

PEUGEOT dealer network, wheth-

er your vehicle is suitable for the

fuel pumps in the country in which

you want to travel.

* According to country of sale.

vided,

by the use of dedicated lamps (bulbs

or LEDs); this function can be acti-

vated or deactivated via the vehicle

confi guration menu.

The lighting control stalk must be placed in

the "0" or "AUTO" (day mode) position.
Deactivation of the daytime running
