Practical information

Fuel tank

Capacity of the tank: approximately 69 litres.

Opening

Refuelling

Additions of fuel must be of at least 8 litres to

be registered by the fuel gauge.

opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of

air. This vacuum is entirely normal and results

from the sealing of the fuel system.

F

Remove the filler cap, then place it on the

carrier located on the filler flap.

F

Take care to select the pump that delivers

the correct fuel type for your vehicle's

engine (reminder on a label on the inside of

the filler flap).

Introduce the nozzle and push it in fully

(pushing on the metal non-return valve A).

Fill the tank. Do not continue past the third

cut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause

malfunctions.

If your vehicle has a conventional key,

introduce the key into the filler cap, then

turn it to the left.

Practical information

Diesel misfuel

prevention

Mechanical device which prevents filling the

tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids

the risk of engine damage that can result from

filling with the wrong fuel.

Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter,

a device which helps to reduce the level of

harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.

If you have put in the wrong fuel for

your vehicle, you must have have

the tank drained and refilled with

the correct fuel before you start the

engine.

Located in the filler neck, the misfuel

prevention device appears when the filler cap

is removed.

If your vehicle has sliding side doors, do

not open the left hand sliding door as

there is a risk of damaging the fuel filler

flap when refuelling.

Low fuel level

When the low fuel level in the tank is

reached, this warning lamp comes on in

the instrument panel, accompanied by

an audible warning and a message.

When it first comes on, less than 8 litres of fuel

remain in the tank.

You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid

running out.

When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the

fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes

into contact with the flap. The system remains

closed and prevents filling.

Do not persist but introduce a Diesel filler

nozzle.

Fuel supply cut-off

Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device

which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a

collision.

Practical information

Fuel used for Diesel

engines

It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill

the tank but this must be done 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.

Travelling abroad

The Diesel engines are compatible with

biofuels available at the pumps which meet

current and future european standards:

The use of B20 or B30 fuel meeting standard

eN16709 is possible in your Diesel engines.

However, this use, even occasional, requires

strict application of the special servicing

conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".

For more information, contact a PeugeoT

dealer or a qualified workshop.

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, 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 want to

travel.
