FUEL CUT-OFF
In a serious collision, a mechanism
automatically prevents fuel from reaching
the engine.
DIESEL PRIMING PUMP
If you should run out of fuel, it is necessary
to prime the circuit:
- fill the fuel tank with at least five litres of
diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual priming
pump, under the bonnet under the
protective cover, until fuel appears in the
transparent pipe,
- operate the starter until the engine
starts.
The flashing of this warning lamp
is accompanied by a message in
the screen.
Check that there is no odour or leakage of
fuel outside the vehicle and re-establish the
fuel supply:
- switch off the ignition (STOP position),
-
remove the key,
- put the key back in the ignition,
- switch on the ignition and start.
Quality of the fuel used for Diesel
engines
Quality of the fuel used for petrol
engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible
with biofuels which conform to current
and future European standards (Diesel
fuel which complies with standard EN 590
mixed with a biofuel which complies with
standard EN 14214) available at the pumps
(containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain
Diesel engines; however, this use is subject
to strict application of the special servicing
conditions. Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).
The petrol engines are perfectly compatible
with E10 or E24 type petrol biofuels
(containing 10 % or 24 % ethanol),
conforming to European standards EN 228
and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles marketed for the use of this type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of
the ethanol must comply with European
standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up to
100 % ethanol (E100 type).
