In addition to the catalytic converter, this fi lter contributes actively to the preserving of air quality, by collecting the polluting particles that have not been burnt off. Black exhaust fumes are thus eliminated.
Clogging of the particle fi lter
Clogging is caused by the particle fi lter starting to be saturated (owing to exceptionally long periods spent driving in urban conditions : low speeds, traffi c jams, etc.).
In order to regenerate the fi lter you are advised to drive as soon as possible, when traffi c condition s allow, at a speed of 60 km/h or more for at least 5 minutes. If the problem persists, contact a CITROËN dealer.In order to regenerate the fi lter you are advised to drive as soon as possible, when traffi c condition s allow, at a speed In order to regenerate the fi lter you are advised to drive as soon as possible, when traffi c condition s allow, at a speed
Note: If the vehicle has been running for long periods at very low speeds or at idle, vapour emissions may be seen coming from the exhaust under acceleration. These have no consequ ences for the running of the vehicle or for the environment.
The simultaneous lighting of the SERVICE warning lamp and the display of the message “Risk of saturation of par-ticle fi lter (FAP)” on the instrument panel screen indicates an increased risk of saturation.

ABS system
The ABS system enhances your safety by preventing the wheels from locking in the event of sudden braking or in conditions of poor road adherence. It enables you to retain control of the steering.
The functioning capability of all the electrical components essential to the ABS is monitored electronically before and during your journey. The ABS warning lamp lights up when you sw itch on the ignition: it should go out after a few seconds.
If the monitoring warning lamp does not go out, that means that the ABS has disconnected because there is a fault. Also, the fact that the monitoring warning lamp comes on durin g the journey shows that the ABS system is inactive. In both cases, the normal braking system remains effi cient, exactly a s on a vehicle without ABS. However, in order for the security associated with the correct functioning of the ABS to be restored, the vehicle should be examined as soon as possible by a CITROËN dealer.for the security associated with the correct associated with the
On roads with poor adherence (chippings, snow, ice etc.), it is always imperative to drive with prudence.
System of emergency braking assistance
The emergency braking assistance system allows you, in an emergency, t o achieve the optimum braking pressure more quickly, thereby reducing the stopping distance. It is triggered by the speed of your action on the brake pedal, which reduces its resistance. To prolong this action of the emerg ency braking assistance system, simply keep your foot on the brake pedal.
If the parking brake is released, the lighting of this warning lamp along with the STOP warning lamp indicates an insuffi cient level of brake fl uid or a malfunction of the braking distribution.
It is essential to stop the vehicle.
Consult a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
