12 litres for 120 litre tanks.
Fuel tanks of dif

In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations. If the needle enters the red zone or if the
warning lamp comes on:
-

stop immediately
, switch off the ignition.
The fan may continue to operate for a
certain time up to approximately
10 minutes.
-
wait for the engine to cool down in

order to check the level and top it up if
necessary. Follow this advice:
the cooling system is pressurised. In order
to avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the
cap by two turns to allow the pressure
to drop.
When the pressure has dropped, check the
level and remove the cap to top-up.
If the needle remains in the red zone,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

33EMISSIOnS cOntrOLS
EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis)
is a diagnostics system which complies
with, among others, the standards on the
authorised emissions of:
-
CO (carbon monoxide),
-


HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
-


NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles,

detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the
catalytic converters.
tYrE undEr-InFLAt IO n d E t E ct IO n
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The tyre under-inflation detection
system is an aid to driving which does
not replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver. This system does not avoid the need
to check the tyre pressures regularly
(including the spare wheel) and before a
long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases
fuel consumption.
The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the
vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre.
The system triggers an alert if a drop in
pressure is detected in one or more tyres. The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres cold (vehicle stopped
for 1 hour or after driving for less then
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speed).
Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
The tyre pressures for your vehicle can be
found on the tyre pressure label.
The driver is warned of any
malfunction of this emission
control system by the illumination
of this specific warning lamp in
the instrument panel.
There is a risk of damage to the catalytic
converter. Have it checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
To locate it, refer to the "Technical
data
- Identification markings" section.
Driving with under-inflated tyres
adversely affects road holding, extends
braking distances and causes premature
tyre wear, particularly under arduous
conditions (vehicle loaded, high speed, long
journey).

34under-inflation alert
The alert is given by the fixed
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal,
and depending on equipment, the
display of a message.
In the event of a problem on one of the
tyres, the symbol or the message appears,
according to equipment, to identify it.
-

Reduce speed, avoid sudden steering

movements or harsh brake applications.
-

Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
-


In the event of a puncture, use the

temporary puncture repair kit or the
spare wheel (according to equipment).
-

In the event of under-inflation:
●


if you have a compressor
, the one
in the temporary puncture repair
kit for example, check the four tyre
pressures when cold,


or
●

if it is not possible to check the

tyre pressures at the time, drive
carefully at reduced speed and go
to the nearest CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. The loss of pressure detected does not
always lead to visible deformation of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.
The alert is maintained until the tyre or
tyres concerned is reinflated, repaired
or replaced.
Operating fault
The flashing and then fixed
illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by the illumination
of the service warning lamp, and
depending on equipment, the display of a
message indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, monitoring of the tyre pressures
is not assured.
This alert is also displayed when one or
more wheels is not fitted with a sensor.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop

to have the system checked or,
following the repair of a puncture, to have
the original wheel, equipped with a sensor,
refitted.

For a few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the spanner symbolising the
service indicator comes on: the screen
informs you when the next service is due,
in accordance with the servicing schedule
indicated in the maintenance and warranty
guide. This information is determined in
relation to the distance travelled since the
previous service.
After a few seconds, the display returns to
its usual functions. A long press returns you to the main menu.

with the 1st, comes on in the
instrument panel when the oil
has not been changed and the
deterioration of the oil has reached another
threshold. To avoid the risk of damage, have
the oil changed without waiting for this level. The warning lamp flashing and,
if your vehicle has the function,

Have the oil changed as soon as possible.
For 3.0 litre HDi engines, the engine speed
is restricted to 3 000 rpm, then 1 500 rpm
until the oil change is done. Have the engine

To change gear easily, always depress the
clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:
-
ensure that the mat is positioned

correctly,
-

never fit one mat on top of another
.
Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as
the force exerted, even if slight, may wear
the internal components of the gearbox over
time.

everse gear
Raise the collar under the gear knob to
engage reverse gear. Never engage reverse gear before the
vehicle is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce
the noise on engaging reverse gear.
If your vehicle is fitted with parking
sensors, the system comes into
operation when reverse gear is engaged; an
audible signal is heard.
Refer to the "Technology on board -
Parking sensors" section.
GEAr EFFIcIEncY I nd I c AtO r
Depending on the engine or version, this
system allows fuel consumption to be
reduced by suggesting when to change up.
The gear engagement recommendations
should not be considered to be compulsory.
This because the configuration of the
road, the traffic density and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the
best gear. Therefore, the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or not to
follow the advice given by the system.
The system never recommends engaging
first gear or reverse, or changing down.

Operation
The information appears in the
instrument panel screen in the
form of the SHIF

accompanied by an upward arrow
to signal to the driver that they can change up.
The system adapts its gear change
recommendations according to the driving
conditions (slope, load, ...) and demands
from the driver (for power, acceleration,
braking,

...).
Switching off
This system cannot be deactivated by the
driver.
As a safety measure, these operations
