► With the vehicle unlocked, press the rear-
central part of the filler flap to open it.
► Take care to select a pump that delivers the
correct fuel type for the vehicle's engine (see a
reminder label on the inside of the filler flap).
► Turn the filler cap to the left.
► Remove the filler cap and hang it on its
carrier (on the filler flap).
► Introduce the filler nozzle and push it in as far
as possible before starting to refuel (to minimise
the risk of splashing).
► Fill the tank.
Do not continue after the nozzle’s third cut-
out. Doing so may cause malfunctions.
► Refit the filler cap.
► Turn it to the right.
► Push the fuel filler flap to close it.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for the
vehicle, you must have the fuel tank
drained and filled with the correct fuel before
starting the engine.
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.
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.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention
device appears when the filler cap is removed.
Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is inserted 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.
It remains possible to use a fuel jerrycan
to fill the tank.
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.
