Peugeot 2008: Practical information / 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.
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 44 litres (Petrol) or 41 litres
(Diesel).

Load distribution
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as
close as possible to the axle, and the nose weight approaches the maximum
permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance. The
maximum towable load must be reduced by 10% per 1,000 metres of altitude.
Use
genuine towing devices and their wiring harnesses approved by PEUGEOT. We
recommend having them fitted by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
