Practical information  
In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid 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.).  
For more information on AdBlue and the SCR  
system, and in particular topping it up, refer to  
the corresponding section.  
Air filter  
Depending on the environment  
(e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the  
use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving),  
replace it twice as often if  
necessary.  
Checks  
Unless otherwise indicated, check these  
components in accordance with the  
manufacturer's service schedule and according  
to your engine.

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.

However, check regularly that the terminals  
are correctly tightened (versions without quick  
release terminals) and that the connections

specific technology and specification.  
Its replacement should be carried out  
only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified  
workshop.  
An alert is triggered once the reserve level is
