Access
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines

The Diesel engines are per fectly compatible
with biofuels which conform to current andfuture European standards (Diesel fuel which complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a
biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214)
available at the pumps (containing up to 7 %Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in cer tain Diesel engines; however, this use is subject to strict
application of the special ser vicing conditions. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).


















Misfuel prevention (Diesel) * Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of
engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the
filler neck, the misfuel prevention device appears when the filler cap is removed.
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
fuel filler neck of
your Diesel vehicle, it comesinto contact with the flap. The system remains closed and prevents filling. Do not persist but introduce a Diesel typefiller nozzle.
Operation
It remains possible to use a fuel can to fill the tank.In order to ensure a good flow of fuel, do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in direct contact with the flap of themisfuel prevention device and pour slowly.

Deactivation


Use
)Introduce the tool into the filler neck as far as the handle will allow.)Remove the tool completely.)Fill with fuel.
Before refuellin
g using non-standard Diesel
fuel nozzles (present in some countries), a tool
allows you to temporarily disable the misfuel
prevention device.
The misfuel prevention device will beactivated the next time a standard nozzle is used.

This tool will become available durin
g the year.



Tr a v e l l i ng abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be different in other countries, the presenceof the misfuel prevention device maymake refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we recommend that you check with the CITROËN dealer network, whether your vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps in the country in which you want to travel.

Stop & Start The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine restar ts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restar t takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Per
fect for urban use, the Stop & Star t system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
With the electronic gearbox system, for your comfor t during parking maoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear.STOP mode does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such asbraking, power steering, for example.
Never refuel with the engine in STOPmode; you must switch off the ignition with the key. Th
e "ECO"warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby automatically:
-with a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h), when you put the gear lever into neutral and release the clutchpedal,
- with the 6-speed electronic gearbox
system, at a speed below 5 mph (8 km/h),
when you press the brake pedal or put thegear lever into position N.
If your vehicle is fitted with the system, a time counter calculates
the sum o
f the periods in STOP
mode during a journey. It resets
itself to zero every time the ignition
is switched on with the key.
STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not
fastened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h)since the last engine star t using the key,

- the electric parking brake is applied or
bein
g applied,

- the engine is needed to maintain acomfortable temperature in the passenger compartment,

- demisting is active,

- some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance,ambient temperature...) where the engine isneeded to assure control of a system.


Special cases: STOP modeunavailable

In this case, the "ECO"warning lamp
flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is per fectly normal.

gine is switched off, the audio system operating timedepends on the battery charge.
The switch-o
ff is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging the vehicle's battery. Start the vehicle's en
gine to increase the batterycharge.
The messa
ge "the audio system is overheated"
appears on the display. In order to protect the installation if the surroundin
g temperature is too
high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD. Switch the audio s
ystem off for a few minutes to
allow the system to cool.
