Engine oil level indicator

On versions fitted with an electric oil gauge,
information on the conformity of the oil level
is displayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched on, at
the same time as the service information.

the level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and the
engine has been off for more than
30 minutes.

this is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel.

this is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped-up to
avoid damage to the engine.

this is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel. Contact a PeugeOt dealer
or a qualified workshop.

Dipstick

there are 2 marks on the
dipstick:
-

A = max; never exceed this
level,

B = min; top-up the level via
the oil filler, using the grade
of oil suited to your engine.

to locate the dipstick and the oil filler
cap on a Petrol engine or a Diesel
engine, refer to the corresponding
section.

AdBlue

fluid range indicators

Once the AdBlue

tank is on reserve or after

detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue

level, the shortest range figure is

the one displayed.

In the event of the risk of non-starting related to a lack of AdBlue

the engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue

tank is

empty.

Remaining range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)

Pressing this button will display the remaining
range.

F then "Diagnostic".

Above 3 000 miles (5 000 km), the value is not
specified.

When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of range in the instrument
panel.

the range at that moment is then displayed.

You can access this information in the touch
screen, if your vehicle has one.

F Select the "Driving assistance"

menu.

Remaining range between 350 and 1500 miles (600 and 2 400 km)

When switching on the ignition, the uReA
warning lamp comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of a
message (e.g. "top-up emissions additive:
Starting prevented in 900 miles") indicating
the remaining range expressed in miles or
kilometres.
When driving, the message is displayed every
200 miles (300 km) until the AdBlue

fluid has

been topped-up.
go to a PeugeOt dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the AdBlue

topped-up.

You can also top-up the tank yourself.

For more information on AdBlue

and

the SCR system, and topping-up in
particular, refer to the corresponding
section.

Instruments

Remaining range between 0 and 350 miles (0 and 600 km)

When switching on the ignition, the SeRVICe
warning lamp comes on and the uReA warning
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of a message (e.g.
"top-up emissions additive: Starting prevented
in 350 miles") indicating the remaining range
expressed in miles or kilometres.
When driving, the message is displayed every
30 seconds until the AdBlue

fluid has been

topped-up.
go to a PeugeOt dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the AdBlue

topped-up.

You can also top-up the tank yourself.
Otherwise you will not be able to restart your
engine.

Breakdown related to a lack of AdBlue

additive

When switching on the ignition, the SeRVICe
warning lamp comes on and the uReA warning
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of the message "top-up
emissions additive: Starting prevented".
the AdBlue

tank is empty: the system required

by regulations prevents engine starting.

to be able to start the engine,
we recommend that you call on a
PeugeOt dealer or a qualified
workshop for the top-up required.
If you carry out the top-up yourself, it
is essential to add at least 3.8 litres of
AdBlue

to the tank.

For more information on AdBlue

and the SCR system, and topping-up in particular, refer

to the corresponding section.

Instruments

Starting prevented

every time the ignition is switched on, the SeRVICe
and engine diagnostic warning lamps come on and
the uReA warning lamp flashes, accompanied by
an audible signal and the display of the message
"emissions fault: Starting prevented".

You have exceeded the authorised
driving limit: the starting prevention
system inhibits engine starting.

to be able to start the engine, you must call on
a PeugeOt dealer or a qualified workshop.

In the event of a fault with the SCR emissions control system

A system that prevents engine starting is activated automatically from 650 miles (1 100 km) after confirmation of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system. Have the system checked by a PeugeOt dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible.

If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after self-diagnosis of the SCR system.

In the event of the detection of a fault

the uReA, SeRVICe and diagnostic warning
lamps comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of the message
"emissions fault".
the alert is triggered when driving when the
fault is detected for the first time, then when
switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists.

During an authorised driving phase (between
650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)

If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed (after
30 miles (50 km) covered with the permanent
display of the message signalling a fault), the
SeRVICe and engine diagnostic warning lamps
come on and the uReA warning lamp flashes,
accompanied by an audible signal and the
display of a message (e.g.: "emissions fault:
Starting prevented in 150 miles") indicating the
remaining range express in miles or kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every
30 seconds while the fault with the SCR system
persists.
the alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition.
You should go to a PeugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Otherwise, you will not be able to restart your
engine.

When travelling abroad, you may
have to change the units of distance:
the display of road speed must be in
the official units (miles or km) for the
country. the change of units is done via
the screen configuration menu, with the
vehicle stationary.

It measures the total distance travelled by the
vehicle since its first registration.

It measures the distance travelled since it was
reset to zero by the driver.

Trip computer, a few definitions

Range

(miles or km)
the distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remaining in
the tank (related to the average fuel
consumption over the last few miles
(kilometres) travelled).

this value may vary following a change
in the style of driving or the relief,
resulting in a significant change in the
current fuel consumption.

When the range falls below 20 miles (30 km),
dashes are displayed. After filling with at least
5 litres of fuel, the range is recalculated and is
displayed when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).

If dashes are displayed continuously
while driving in place of the digits,
contact a PeugeOt dealer or a
qualified workshop.

this function is only displayed from
20 mph (30 km/h).

Current fuel consumption

(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
Calculated over the last few seconds.

Average fuel consumption
