Practical information

Reduction) with a Diesel Particle Filter (DPF) for 

the treatment of exhaust gases.

SCR system

Using a liquid called AdBlue

®

 that contains 

urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of 

the 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 15 litres. 

Its capacity allows a driving range of 

approximately 3,900 miles (6,500 km), 

which 

may vary considerably

 depending on your 

driving style.

An alert system is triggered once the reserve 

level is reached: it is then possible to drive for a 

further 1,500 miles (2,400 km) before the tank is 

empty and the vehicle is immobilised.

For more information on the 

Warning 

and indicator lamps

 and the associated 

alerts, or the 

Indicators

, please refer to the 

corresponding sections.

Once the AdBlue

®

 tank is empty, a device 

required by law prevents the engine from 

being restarted.

If the SCR system is faulty, the level of 

emissions from the vehicle will no longer meet 

the Euro 6 standard and the vehicle starts 

polluting the environment.

In the event of a confirmed SCR system 

malfunction, it is essential to visit a 

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop. 

After 685 miles (1,100 km), a device is 

automatically activated to prevent the engine 

from starting.

In both cases, a range indicator indicates 

the distance that can be travelled before the 

vehicle is stopped.

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 very cold conditions.

Supply of AdBlue

®

It is recommended that the AdBlue

®

 be topped 

up as soon as the first alert is issued indicating 

that the reserve level has been reached.

For the correct operation of the SCR 

system:

–  Use only AdBlue

®

 fluid that meets the ISO 

22241 standard.

–  Never transfer AdBlue

®

 to another container 

as it would lose its purity.

–  Never dilute AdBlue

®

 with water.

You can obtain AdBlue

®

 from a PEUGEOT 

dealer or a qualified workshop, as well as service 

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).

195

Practical information

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.

►  Press the "

START/STOP

" button to switch off 

the engine.

 

 

►  Turn the blue cap of the AdBlue

®

 tank anti-

clockwise and remove it.

►  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.

►  With an AdBlue

®

 pump: insert the nozzle and 

fill the tank until the nozzle automatically cuts 

out.

In order not to overfill the AdBlue

®

 tank:

–  Add between 10 and 13 litres using 

AdBlue

®

 containers.

–  Stop after the nozzle’s first automatic cut-

out, if you are refilling at a service station.

The system only registers AdBlue

®

 

intermediate top-ups of 5 litres or more.

If the AdBlue

®

 tank is completely empty 

– which is confirmed by the message 

Top up AdBlue: Starting impossible

” – it is 

essential to add at least 10 litres.

Top-up detection may not be instantaneous 

after addition. It may take a few minutes of 

driving before the top-up detection is effective.

Free-wheeling

In certain situations, it is necessary to put the 

vehicle into free-wheeling mode (e.g. towing, on 

a rolling road, automatic car wash (Wash mode), 

rail or sea transport).

The procedure varies according to the type of 

gearbox and parking brake.

General recommendations

Observe the following recommendations to avoid 

damaging the vehicle.

Exterior

Never use a high-pressure jet wash in 

the engine compartment - risk of 

damaging the electrical components!

Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or 

extremely cold conditions.

When washing the vehicle in an 

automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure 

to lock the doors and, depending on version, 

move the electronic key away and deactivate 

the "hands-free" function (Hands-Free 

Tailgate Access).

When using a pressure washer, keep the jet 

nozzle at a minimum distance of 30 cm from 

the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas 

containing chipped paint, sensors or seals).

Promptly clean up any stains containing 

chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's 

paintwork (including tree resin, bird 

droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar).

Depending on the environment, clean the 

vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits 

(in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas) 

and mud/salts (in wet or cold areas). These 

substances can be highly corrosive.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 

workshop for advice on removing stubborn 

stains requiring special products (such as tar 

or insect removers).

Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed 

by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 

workshop.

Interior

When washing the vehicle, never use a 

water hose or high-pressure jet to clean 

the interior.

Liquids carried in cups or other open 

containers can spill, presenting a risk of 

damage to the instruments and controls and 

the controls located on the centre console. Be 

vigilant!

197

Practical information

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.

Product/Procedure to use depending 

on the type of stain:

–  Grease, oil and ink: clean with a pH-neutral 

detergent.

Technical data

Engine technical data and 

towed loads

Engines

The engine characteristics are given in the 

vehicle's registration document, as well as in 

sales brochures.

Only the values available at the time of 

publication are presented in the tables.

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified 

workshop to obtain missing values.

The maximum power corresponds to the 

value type-approved on a test bed, under 

conditions defined by European legislation 

(Directive 1999/99/EC).

For more information, contact a PEUGEOT 

dealer or a qualified workshop.

Weights and towed loads

The weights and towed loads relating to 

the vehicle are indicated on the registration 

document, as well as in sales brochures.

These values are also indicated on the 

manufacturer's plate or label.

For more information, contact a PEUGEOT 

dealer or a qualified workshop.

The GTW (Gross Train Weight) and towed load 

values indicated are valid up to a maximum 

altitude of 1,000 metres. The towed load value 

must be reduced by 10% for each additional 

1,000 metres of altitude.

The maximum authorised nose weight 

corresponds to the weight permitted on the 

towball.

When exterior temperatures are high, the 

vehicle performance may be limited in 

order to protect the engine. When the exterior 

temperature is higher than 37°C, reduce the 

towed weight.

Towing even with a lightly loaded vehicle 

can adversely affect its road holding.

Braking distances are increased when towing 

a trailer.

When using a vehicle to tow, never exceed 

a speed of 62 mph (100 km/h) (observe the 

local legislation in force).
