Fuel Tank - PEUGEOT 3008 HYbrif4 Handbook

FUEL TANK

Capacity of the tank: approximately
56.5 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is
reached, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the multifunction screen. When the
lamp fi rst comes on, there is approxi-
mately 6 litres of fuel remaining.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the
ignition is switched on, accompanied by
an audible signal and a message. When
driving, this audible signal and message
are repeated with increasing frequency,
as the fuel level drops towards "0" .
You must refuel to avoid run-
ning out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel),
refer also to the "Checks"
section.
Refuelling
A label affi xed to the inside of the fi ller
fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used according to your engine.
More than 5 litres of fuel must be add-
ed in order to be registered by the fuel
gauge.
To fi ll the tank safely:
the engine must
be
at the
switch (the Ready
lamp must be off) to avoid an auto-
matic restart of the engine while re-
fuelling,
open the fuel fi ller fl ap,
insert the key in the cap, then turn it
to the left,
remove the cap and secure it on the
hook, located on the inside of the
fl ap,
fi ll the tank, but do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle ;
this could cause malfunctions.
When refuelling is complete:
put the cap back in place,
turn the key to the right, then remove
it from the cap,
close the fi ller fl ap.
The key cannot be removed
from the lock until the cap is
put back on the tank.
Opening the cap may trigger an in-
rush of air. This vacuum, which is
completely normal, is caused by the
sealing of the fuel system.

Operating fault
A malfunction of the fuel gauge is indi-
cated by the return to zero of the fuel
gauge needle.
Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.
