FUEL TANK

Capacity of the tank: approxi-
mately 60 litres.
Low fuel level
When the minimum level in the tank is reached, this warning
lamp on the instrument panel
comes on, accompanied by
an audible warning and a message
on the multifunction screen.

You have enough fuel left to drive
approximately 50 km (approx.
30 miles).

 Press on the control A , situated
on the control panel on the left
hand side. The fuel fl ap automat-
ically opens up. The petrol or diesel engine of your
vehicle is fi tted with a catalytic con-
verter, a device which helps to re-
duce the level of harmful emissions
in the exhaust gases.

For petrol engines, unleaded fuel
is obligatory.
The fi ller neck is narrower, permit-
ting unleaded petrol only.

 Take care to select the pump
that corresponds to the correct
fuel type for your vehicle.

 Introduce the nozzle so as to
push in the metallic gate valve B.

 Make sure that the nozzle is
pushed in as far as possible
before starting to refuel (risk of
blowback).

 Maintain this position throughout
the refuelling operation.

 Push the fuel fl ap to reclose it.
Fuel cut-off switch
Your vehicle is equipped with a
safety device which cuts off the fuel
supply in the event of a collision.
Refuelling

If you are fi lling your tank to the
top, do not persist after the third
cut-off; this could cause your
vehicle to malfunction.

- directional headlamps for improved visibility when cornering.
Additional lighting
Other lights are installed to fulfi l the
requirements of particular driving
conditions:
- a rear fog lamp to be seen from a distance,
- front fog lamps for even better visibility,
- daytime lights to be seen during the day. Programming
Various automatic lighting control
modes are also available according
to the following options:
- guide-me-home lighting,
- automatic lighting,
- directional lighting.

Model with rear foglamp only
Model with front and rear
foglamps In good or rainy weather, both day
and night, the front fog lamps and
the rear fog lamp are prohibited. In
these situations, the power of their
beams may dazzle other drivers.
They should only be used in fog or
snow.
In these weather conditions, it is
your responsibility to switch on the
fog lamps and dipped headlamps
manually as the brightness sensor
may detect suffi cient light.
Do not forget to switch off the front
fog lamps and the rear fog lamp
when they are no longer neces-
sary.
Lights on buzzer
The triggering of an audible signal
when a front door is opened warns
the driver that he has forgotten to
switch off his vehicle's lights, with
the ignition off and in manual lights
mode.
In this case, switching off the lights
stops the audible signal.
With the ignition off, if the dipped
headlamps remain on, they will
switch off automatically after thirty
minutes to prevent discharging of
the battery.

AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT OF THE DIRECTIONAL HEADLAMPS
In order to avoid causing a nuisance
to other road users, this system cor-
rects the height of the xenon head-
lamps beam automatically and when
stationary, in relation to the load in
the vehicle. If a malfunction occurs,
this warning light is dis-
played on the instrument
panel, accompanied by
an audible signal and a
message on the multi-
function display.
The system then places your head-
lamps in the lowest position.
Do not touch the xenon headlamps.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
DIRECTIONAL LIGHTING
When the dipped or main beam
headlamps are on, this function
enables the light beam to follow the
