instrument cluster CITROEN C-ELYSÉE 2018 Handbook (in English)

If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after auto diagnosis checks of the SCR
emissions control system.
During the permitted driving phase
(between 650
and 0 miles (1,100 km and
0


km))
While driving, the message is displayed every
30

seconds while the fault with the SCR
emissions control system persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition. Starting prevented
You have exceeded the authorised driving
limit: the starting inhibition system does
not allow the engine to be started.
To be able to restart the engine, you must call
on a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.In the event of a fault with
the SCR emissions control
system
An engine starting inhibition device is
activated automatically after you have
driven a further 650 miles (1,100 km)
following confirmation of a fault with the
SCR emissions control system. Have the
system checked by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
In the event of the detection of a fault
These warning lamps come on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of the
message "Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered while driving as soon
as the fault is detected for the first time, then
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists. If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed
(after 30
miles (50 km) covered with the
permanent display of the message signalling
a fault), these warning lamps come on and the
AdBlue warning lamp flashes, accompanied
by an audible signal and the temporary display
in the instrument cluster of NO START IN
and a distance, indicating the driving range
expressed in miles or kilometres before engine
starting is prevented – (e.g. "NO START IN
350
miles" means "Starting will be prevented in
350


miles").You should go to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise you will not be able to restart the
vehicle.
When switching on the ignition, these warning
lamps comes on and the AdBlue warning lamp
flashes, accompanied by an audible signal and
the temporary display of "NO START IN" and
0
miles or kilometres on the instrument panel –
("NO START IN 0
miles" means "Starting
prevented").

F With a petrol engine, operate the starter motor by turning the key to position 3
without pressing the accelerator pedal,
until the engine starts. Once the engine is
running, release the key.
F

W
ith a diesel engine, turn the key to
position 2 , ignition on, to operate the engine
pre-heating system.
Wait until this warning lamp goes
off in the instrument cluster then
operate the starter motor by
turning the key to position 3
without
pressing the accelerator pedal until
the engine starts. Once the engine
is running, release the key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can
stay on for a longer period. If the engine is
hot, the warning lamp does not come on.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition. Wait a few moments
before operating the starter motor again.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, do not keep trying: you risk
damaging the starter motor or the engine.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. In temperate conditions, do not leave
the engine at idle to warm up but move
off straight away and drive at moderate
speed.
Never leave the engine running in
an enclosed area without adequate
ventilation: internal combustion engines
emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon
monoxide. Risk of intoxication and death.
In severe wintry conditions (temperature
below -23°C), the engine should be left
at idle for 4
minutes before moving off to
ensure the correct operation and life of the
mechanical parts of your vehicle, engine
and gearbox.
