Peugeot 407 2004-2011 Owner's Manual Access Fuel Tank

4ACCESS72 FUEL TANK The capacity of the tank is approxi-mately 67 litres. When the low fuel level is reached, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by an au-dible signal and a message on the mul-tifunction screen. When it fi rst comes on, about 6 litres of fuel remains in the tank. If you run completely out of fuel(Diesel), refer also to the "Checks" section. A label fi tted to the inside of the fuel fi ller fl ap indicates which type of fuel to use. Additions of fuel must be of at least5 litres to be taken into account by the fuel gauge. Opening the fuel fi ller may produce the noise of an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal and results from the sealing of the fuel system. Low fuel warning To refuel in complete safety: you must switch off the engine, open the fuel fi ller fl ap. turn the cap to the left. remove the cap and hang the end on the hook located on the inside of the fl ap. fi ll the tank, but do not continue after the third cut-off of the noz-zle ; this may cause malfunctions. After fi lling the tank: refi t the cap, close the fl ap. Operating fault A fuel gauge fault is indicated by the fuel guage needle returning to zero. Have it checked by a PEUGEOT dealer. Refuelling
4ACCESS73 Special features of BioFlex engines A BioFlex vehicle has been designed to run on unleaded petrol (RON 95 or RON 98) or ethanol (this is a mixture containing 85% ethanol and 15% un-leaded petrol, called E85). So, regardless of the quantity of fuel remaining in your tank and irrespec-tive of its type (RON 95/RON 98, E85 or a mixture of the two), you can fi ll your tank at any time with unleaded petrol (RON 95 or RON 98) or ethanol (E85). There is no problem driving on unlea-ded petrol only with this vehicle. In winter conditions, star-ting the engine from cold may sometimes prove diffi cult. During these very cold periods you are advised to use unleaded pet-rol rather than E85 to ensure optimum starting conditions. Quality of the fuel used for petrol engines The petrol engines are perfectly com-patible with E10 type petrol biofuels (containing 10% 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). Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines The Diesel engines are perfectly com-patible with biofuels which conform to current and future European standards (Diesel fuel which complies with stan-dard 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 cer-tain Diesel engines; however, this use is subject to strict application of the special servicing conditions. Consult a PEUGEOT dealer. The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or di-luted, domestic fuel...) is strictly pro-hibited (risk of damage to the engine and fuel system).
