and pressure in the cooling system increase.
To top up the level:
F

Checking levels
Be aware of the risk of burns when topping 
up the cooling system. Do not fill above 
the maximum level (indicated on the 
expansion tank).
Engine oil level indicator
On versions fitted with an electric oil level 
indicator, the state of the engine oil level is 
displayed in the instrument panel for a few 
seconds upon turning the ignition on, at the 
same time as the ser vicing information. The level read will only be correct if 
the vehicle is on level ground and the 
engine has been stopped for more than 
30
 
minutes.
Oil level correct

Dipstick
To locate the dipstick and the oil filler 
cap for the Diesel engine
, refer to the 
corresponding section.
There are 2
  marks on the dipstick:
-
 
A 
 = max; never exceed this 
level,
-
 
B 
 = min; top up the level via 
the oil filler, using the grade of 
oil suited to your engine.
This is indicated by a message in the 
instrument panel.
This is indicated by a message in the 
instrument panel.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using 
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to 
avoid damage to the engine. This is indicated by a message on the 
instrument panel. Contact a CITROËN dealer 
or a qualified workshop.

AdBlue® fluid range 
indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reser ve or after 
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions 
control system, when the ignition is switched 
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the 
distance that can be covered, the range, before 
engine starting is prevented.
If a system fault and low AdBlue
® level occur 
at the same time, the lowest range is the one 
displayed.
In the event of the risk of non-
starting related to a lack of 
AdBlue
®
The engine start prevention system 
required by regulations is activated 
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is 
e m pt y.
Range greater than 1,500
 
miles (2,400   km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no 
automatic display of range in the instrument 
panel. Pressing this button will temporarily display the 
remaining range.
With touch screen
You can access the information via 
the Driving/Vehicle  menu.
Remaining range between 1,500   and 
375   miles (2,400   and 600   km)
When driving, the message comes up every 
190   miles (300   km) until the tank is topped up.
The reser ve level has been reached; it is 
recommended that you top up as soon as 
possible. When switching on the ignition, this warning 
lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible 
signal and the display of a message (e.g. "Top 
up emissions additive: Starting prevented in 
930
  miles (1,500   km)") indicating the remaining 
range expressed in miles or kilometres. Range less than 375 miles (600 km)
When driving, this message is displayed every 
30
  seconds until the AdBlue level has been 
topped up.
It is essential to top up as soon as possible and 
before the tank is completely empty; other wise 
it will not be possible to restart the engine after 
the next stop.
For more information on the AdBlue
® 
(BlueHDi engines) , and in particular on 
topping up, refer to the corresponding 
section.
When switching on the ignition, this warning 
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible 
signal and the display of a message (e.g."Top 
up emissions additive: Starting prevented in 
190 miles (300 km)") indicating the remaining 
range in miles or kilometres.
Breakdown related to a lack of AdBlue
®
When switching on the ignition, this 
warning lamp flashes, associated 
with an audible signal and the 
display of the message "Top 
up emissions additive: Starting 
prevented".

The AdBlue® tank is empty: the starting 
inhibition system required by legislation 
prevents starting of the engine.
To be able to restart the engine, it is 
essential to add at least 4
  litres of AdBlue
® 
to its tank.
In the event of a fault with the 
SCR emissions control system
An engine immobiliser is activated 
automatically after you have driven a 
further 685
  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 If it is a temporary fault, the alert 
disappears during the next journey, 
after self-diagnostic checks of the SCR 
emissions control system.
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.
During the permitted driving phase 
(between 685
  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.
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.
If a fault with the system SCR is confirmed 
(after around 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 display of a message 
(e.g. "Emissions fault: Starting prevented in 
190
  miles (300 km)") indicating the remaining 
range expressed in miles or kilometres. Starting prevented
You have exceeded the authorised driving 
limit: the starting prevention 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.
Each time the ignition is switched on, these 
warning lamps come on and the AdBlue 
warning lamp flashes, accompanied by an 
audible signal and the display of the message 
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented".

Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be 
travelled with the fuel remaining in 
the tank (related to the average fuel 
consumption over the last few miles 
(kilometres) travelled).
This value may fluctuate if a change 
of driving style or terrain results in a 
significant change in the current fuel 
consumption.
Dashes are displayed when the range falls 
below around 20
  miles (30 km). After filling with 
at least 8
 
litres of fuel, the range is recalculated 
and is displayed if it exceeds around 60
  miles
