Practical information

fuels could prevent the engine from operating

correctly. In these temperature conditions, use

winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank

more than 50 % full.

signal are repeated with increasing frequency as

the fuel level drops towards 0.

You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid

running out of fuel.

Compatibility of fuels

Petrol fuels conforming to the EN228 standard

containing up to 5% and 10% ethanol

respectively.

At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid

problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle

under shelter (heated garage).

For more information on Running out of fuel

(Diesel), refer to the corresponding section.

A small arrow by the warning lamp

indicates which side of the vehicle the

fuel ﬁller ﬂap is located on.

Travelling abroad

Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s

engine.

In certain countries, the use of a particular

fuel may be required (speciﬁc octane rating,

speciﬁc trade name, etc.) to ensure correct

operation of the engine.

Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734

and EN16709 standards and containing up to

7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester

respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even

occasionally, imposes special maintenance

conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".

Stop & Start

Never refuel with the engine in STOP

mode; you must switch oﬀ the ignition.

For all additional information, consult a dealer.

Refuelling

When refuelling, at least 5 litres must be added

in order to be registered by the fuel gauge.

Opening the ﬁller cap may create a noise caused

by an inrush of air. This vacuum is normal,

caused by the sealing of the fuel system.

To refuel in complete safety:

Paraﬃnic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940

standard.

Refuelling

Fuel tank capacity: approximately 44 litres

(Petrol) or 41 litres (Diesel).

The use of any other type of (bio)fuel

(e.g. pure or diluted vegetable or animal

oils, domestic fuel) is strictly prohibited - risk

of damaging the engine and fuel system!

Reserve level: approximately 5 litres.

► Always switch oﬀ the engine.

Low fuel level

When the low fuel level is reached, this

warning lamp lights up on the instrument

panel, accompanied by the display of a message

and an audible signal. When it ﬁrst comes on,

about 5 litres of fuel remain.

The only fuel additives authorised for use

are those that meet the B715001 (petrol)

or B715000 (Diesel) standards.

Until suﬃcient fuel is added, this warning lamp

appears every time the ignition is switched on,

accompanied by the message and the audible

signal. When driving, this message and audible

drained and ﬁlled with the correct fuel before

starting the engine.

The misfuel prevention device does not

prevent ﬁlling with a jerrycan, regardless

of the fuel type.

The vehicle is ﬁtted with a catalytic converter,

which helps to reduce the level of harmful

emissions in the exhaust gases.

For petrol engines, you must use unleaded

fuel.

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.

The ﬁller neck is narrower, admitting unleaded

petrol nozzles only.

Misfuel prevention (Diesel)

(Depending on country of sale.)

This mechanical device prevents ﬁlling the tank

of a Diesel vehicle with petrol.

► With the vehicle unlocked, press the rear-

central part of the ﬁller ﬂap to open it.

► Take care to select the pump that delivers the

correct fuel type for your vehicle's engine (see a

reminder label on the inside of the ﬁller ﬂap).

► Turn the ﬁller cap to the left, remove it and

place it on its support (on the ﬁller ﬂap).

► Insert the ﬁller nozzle and push it in as far as

possible before starting to refuel (to minimise the

risk of splashing).

Located in the ﬁller neck, the misfuel prevention

device is visible when the ﬁller cap is removed.

Charging system

(Electric)

Operation

400 V electrical system

The electrical traction system, which operates at

a voltage of approximately 400 V, is identiﬁed by

orange cables, and its components are marked

with this symbol:

Do not continue after the nozzle’s third cut-

out. Doing so may cause malfunctions.

► Put the ﬁller cap back in place and turn it to

the right.

When a petrol ﬁller nozzle is introduced 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.

► Close the fuel ﬁller ﬂap.

If you have put in the wrong fuel for the

vehicle, you must have the fuel tank

Practical information

An electric vehicle’s power train can

become hot during use and after

switching oﬀ the ignition.

In the event of an accident or impact

to the vehicle’s underbody

In these situations, the electrical circuit or the

traction battery can be seriously damaged.

Stop as soon as it is safe to do so and switch

oﬀ the ignition.

Never allow water or dust to enter the

connector or charging nozzle - risk of

electrocution or ﬁre!

Never connect / disconnect the charging

nozzle or cable with wet hands - risk of

electrocution!

Observe the warning messages shown on

labels, particularly inside the ﬂap.

All work on or modiﬁcations to the vehicle’s

electrical system (including the traction

battery, connectors, orange cables and

other components visible from the interior or

exterior) is strictly prohibited - risk of severe

burns or potentially fatal electric shock

(short-circuit/electrocution)!

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁed

workshop.

Traction battery

This battery stores the energy that powers

the electric motor and the thermal comfort

equipment in the passenger compartment. It is

discharged during use, and must therefore be

regularly recharged. There is no need to wait

for the traction battery to fall to its reserve level

before recharging.

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 an electric vehicle.

In the event of a problem, always contact a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁed workshop.

Battery life may vary according to the type of

driving, the route, thermal comfort equipment

usage and battery component ageing.

When washing

Before washing the vehicle, always

check that the charging ﬂap is closed

correctly.

Never wash the vehicle while the battery is

on charge.

The traction battery ageing process is

inﬂuenced by multiple factors, including

climate conditions, the distance travelled and

how often it has been fast-charged.

This label is intended solely for use by

ﬁreﬁghters and maintenance services in

the event of any work on the vehicle.

No other person must touch the device shown

on this label.

In the event of damage to the traction

battery

It is strictly prohibited to work on the vehicle

yourself.

Do not touch liquids coming from the battery,

and in the event of skin contact with these

products, wash abundantly with water and

contact a doctor as soon as possible.

High-pressure washing

To avoid damaging the electrical

components, it is expressly prohibited to

use high-pressure washing in the engine

compartment or under the body.

Do not use a pressure greater than 80 bar

when washing the bodywork.

138

Practical information

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁed

workshop to have the system checked.

In case of impact, even light, against the

charging ﬂap, do not use it.

Do not dismantle or modify the charging

connector - risk of electrocution and/or ﬁre!

Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualiﬁed

workshop.
