AdBlue® additive and SCR system
f
or
 
BlueHDi   Diesel   engines
To assure respect for the environment and c
onformity   with   the   new   Euro   6   emissions  
s

tandard,   without   adversely   affecting   the  
p

er formance   or   fuel   consumption   of   Diesel  
e

ngines,   CITROËN   has   taken   the   decision   to  
e

quip   its   vehicles   with   an   effective   system   that  
a

ssociates   SCR   (Selective   Catalytic   Reduction)  
w

ith   a   particle   filter   (FAP)   for   the   treatment   of  
e

xhaust   gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using an additive called AdBlue® containing u
rea, a catalytic converter turns up to
85% of
 
nitrous
 
oxides
 
(NOx)
 
into
  nitrogen  
a

nd
 
water,
 
which
 
are
 
harmless
 
to   health   and  
t

he environment. The
  AdBlue
® additive is held in a special t
ank
 
located
  under   the   boot   at   the   rear   of  
t

he
 
vehicle.
 
It   has   a   capacity   of   17   litres:   this  
p

rovides
 
a
 
driving   range   of   about   12   500   miles  
(

20
 
000
 
km),
  after   which   an   alert   is   triggered  
w

arning
 
you
 
when   the   reserve   remaining   is  
e

nough
 
for
 
just   1   500   miles   (2   400   km).
During
 
each
  scheduled   service   of   your   vehicle  
b

y
 
a
 
CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop,  
t

he
 
AdBlue
® additive tank is refilled in order to a
llow
 
normal   operation   of   the   SCR   system.
If
 
the
 
estimated   mileage   between   two   services  
i

s
 
greater
 
than   12   500   miles   (20   000   km),   we  
r

ecommend
  that   you   go   to   a   CITROËN   dealer  
o

r
 
a
 
qualified   workshop   to   have   the   necessary  
t

op-up
 
carried   out. Once
  the   AdBlue
® tank is empty, a
 
system
 
required
  by   regulations  
p

revents
 
starting
 
of   the   engine.
If the SCR is faulty, the level of
emissions
 
from
 
your   vehicle   will   no  
l

onger
 
meet
 
the
 
Euro   6   standard:   your  
v

ehicle
 
becomes
 
polluting.
In
 
the
 
event
 
of
 
a
 
confirmed   fault  
w

ith
 
the
 
SCR
 
system,   you   must   go  
t

o
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop
 
as
 
soon   as   possible:   after  
a

 
running
 
distance   of   650   miles  
(

1 100
 
km),
 
a
 
system   will   be   triggered  
a

utomatically
 
to
 
prevent   engine  
s

tarting.

Once the AdBlue® tank is on reserve or after d
etection

system,
 
when   the   ignition   is   switched  
o

an
 
indicator
 
displays   an   estimate   of   the

that
 
can
 
be   covered,   the   range,   before

event
 
of
 
simultaneous   system   fault   and

one
 
displayed. The
  engine   start   prevention   system  
r

equired   by   regulations   is   activated  
a

utomatically   once   the   AdBlue

s
 
empty.
In the event of the risk of non-starting related to a lack of AdBlue®
Range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When   the   ignition   is   switched   on,   no

n   the   instrument   panel.
Remaining range between 350 and 1500 miles (600 and 2 400 km)
When switching on the ignition, the UREA warning   lamp   comes   on,   accompanied  
b

y   an   audible   signal   and   the   display   of   a

t

he   remaining   range   expressed   in   miles   or  
k

ilometres.
When
  driving,   the   message   is   displayed   every  
2

be

en
 t
opped-up.
Go
  to   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop   to   have   the   AdBlue

Practical information

disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state of   charge   for   starting   the   engine,   it   is  
r

ecommended   that   the   battery   be   disconnected  
i

f   the   vehicle   is   taken   out   of   service   for   a   long  
p

eriod.
Wait
  2   minutes   after   switching   off   the   ignition  
b

efore   disconnecting   the   battery:
F
 
c
lose   all   openings   (doors,   boot,   windows,  
r

oof   (for   Cabrio   versions)),
F
 
s
witch   off   all   electrical   consumers   (audio  
s

ystem,   wipers,   lighting,   ...),
F
 
s
witch   off   the   ignition   and   wait   for  
f

our minutes.
Having
  exposed   the   battery,   it   is   only  
n

ecessary   to   disconnect   the   (+)   terminal.
Following reconnection of the
battery
After reconnecting the battery, switch on the ignition   and   wait   1   minute   before   starting   to  
a

llow   initialisation   of   the   electronic   systems.
However,
  if   minor   problems   persist   following  
t

his   operation,   contact   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified
 w
orkshop.
Referring
  to   the   corresponding   section,   you  
m

ust   yourself   reinitialise   or   reset   certain  
s

ystems,   such   as:
-
 
t
he   remote   control,
-
 
t
he   electric   windows,
-
 
t
he   date   and   time,
-
 
t
he   radio   preset   stations.

Reconnecting the (+) terminal
F Position   the   open   clamp   B of the cable on
the   positive   post   (+)   of   the   battery.
F
 
P

irst   engine   start.
In
  this   case,   the   system   will   only   be  
a

vailable   again   after   a   continuous  
p

eriod   of   immobilisation   of   the   vehicle,  
a

  period   which   depends   on   the   ambient  
t

emperature   and   the   state   of   charge   of  
t

he   battery   (up   to   about   8   hours).
Do

ot   positioned   correctly;   start   the  
p

rocedure   again.

Before removing a front
wiper blade
F Within  one   minute   after   switching   off   the  i
gnition,   operate   the   wiper   stalk   to   position  
t

he   wiper   blades   in   the   vertical   position.
This
  position   must   be   used   in   order   to   avoid  
d

amaging   the   wiper   blade   and   the   bonnet.

F Raise  the   corresponding   wiper   arm.
F  U nclip   the   wiper   blade   and   remove   it.
Fitting
F At  the   front,   check   the   size   of   the   wiper  b
lade   as   the   shorter   blade   is   fitted   to   the  
p

assenger   side   of   the   vehicle.
F
