Practical information -> Diesel misfuel prevention for Your Peugeot 308 4 Door Second Genration (2014-2020)

Practical information  
When it first comes on, less than 6 litres of fuel  
remain in the tank.  
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid  
running out of fuel.  
Driving abroad  
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be  
different in other countries, the presence  
of the misfuel prevention device may make  
refuelling impossible.  
Not all Diesel vehicles are fitted with  
misfuel protection, so before travelling  
abroad, we recommend that you check  
with the PEUGEOT dealer network,  
whether your vehicle is suitable for the  
fuel pumps in the country in which you  
intend to travel.  
Fuel cut-off  
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that  
cuts off the supply of fuel in the event of an  
impact.  
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the  
Diesel tank, it comes into contact with the flap.  
The system remains closed and prevents filling.  
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type  
filler nozzle.  
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,  
never refuel with the engine in STOP  
mode; you must switch off the ignition.  
Diesel misfuel prevention  
Mechanical device which prevents filling the  
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It helps  
avoid the risk of engine damage that can result  
from filling with the wrong fuel.  
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel  
prevention device appears when the filler cap  
is removed.  
It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill the  
tank slowly.  
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,  
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in  
direct contact with the flap of the misfuel  
prevention device.
