Adblue ® Additive And Scr System (Bluehdi Diesel) - PEUGEOT PARTNER Tepee Handbook

ADBLUE ADDITIVE AND SCR
®
SYSTEM
FOR BLUEHDI DIESEL
ENGINES
to assure respect for the environment
and conformity with the new euro
6 emissions standard, without
adversely affecting the performance
or fuel consumption of Diesel engines,
PeugeOt has taken the decision
to equip its vehicles with an effective
system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle
filter (FAP) for the treatment of exhaust
gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
using an additive called AdBlue
containing urea, a catalytic converter
turns up to 85% of nitrous oxides
(NOx) into nitrogen and water, which
are harmless to health and the
environment.
the AdBlue ® additive is held in a
special tank located under the boot
at the rear of the vehicle. It has a
capacity of 17 litres: this provides a
driving range of about 12 500 miles
(20 000 km), after which an alert
is triggered warning you when the
reserve remaining is enough for just
1 500 miles (2 400 km).
During each scheduled service of
your vehicle by a PeugeOt dealer
or a qualified workshop, the AdBlue
additive tank is refilled in order to allow
normal operation of the SCR system.
If the estimated mileage between two
services is greater than 12 500 miles
(20 000 km), we recommend that you
go to a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the necessary top-
up carried out.
Once the AdBlue
a system required by regulations
® prevents starting of the engine.
If the SCR is faulty, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no
longer meet the Euro 6 standard: you
vehicle becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault with
the SCR system, you must go to
a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible: after
a running distance of 650 miles
(1 100 km), a system will be triggered
automatically to prevent engine
starting.
