-


Insert the key
, then turn it a quarter
turn.
-

Remove the cap and hook it onto
the clip located on the inside of the
flap.
When fillin

g with fuel, with the fuel
filler flap open, ensure that no one
attempts to open the sliding side
door.
When the minimum fuel tank
level is reached, this warning
lamp comes on.
You then have approximately 8 litres
of fuel remaining. Fill up without delay
to avoid running out of fuel.
Never risk driving until you run out of
fuel as this may damage the emissions
control and injection systems.Fuel used for petrol engines
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used.
You must fill with at least 5 litres of fuel
for it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When the fuel filler cap is opened,
there may be a slight air suction noise.
This vacuum is entirely normal and is
due to the sealing of the fuel circuit.
When filling the fuel tank, do not
continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the
nozzle. This could cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 60 litres.
-

After fillin

g the fuel tank, lock the
cap and close the flap. The petrol engines are compatible
with E10 bio-petrol (containing 10 %
ethanol), conforming to European
standards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles marketed for the use of this
type of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The
quality of the ethanol must comply with
European standard EN 15293.

ADBLUE® ADDITIVE AND SCR
SYSTEM
FOR

B
LUE HD I D IESEL


ENGINES
To assure respect for the environment
and conformity with the new Euro 6
emissions standard, without adversely
affecting the performance or fuel
consumption of Diesel engines,
CITROËN has taken the decision to
equip its vehicles with an effective
system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle
filter (FAP) for the treatment of exhaust
gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using an additive called AdBlue®
containing urea, a catalytic converter
turns up to 85% of nitrous oxides
(NOx) into nitrogen and water, which
are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® additive is held in a
special tank located under the boot
at the rear of the vehicle. It has a
capacity of 17 litres: this provides a
driving range of about 12 500 miles
(20 000

km), after which an alert
is triggered warning you when the
reserve remaining is enough for just
1 500 miles (2 400 km).
During each scheduled service of
your vehicle by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop, the AdBlue
®
additive tank is refilled in order to allow
normal operation of the SCR system.
If the estimated mileage between
two services is greater than 12 500

miles
(20 000 km), we recommend that you
go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the necessary top-up
carried out. Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty,
a system required by regulations
prevents starting of the engine.
If the SCR

is faulty, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no
longer meet the Euro 6 standard: you
vehicle becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault
with the SCR system, you must go
to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible: after a
running distance of 650 miles
(1 100 km), a system will be triggered
automatically to prevent engine
starting.

Range indicators
When switching on the ignition, an
indicator gives an estimate of the
distance that can be travelled with
your vehicle before engine starting
is automatically prevented, once the
vehicle starts using the reserve of
AdBlue
® or after a fault is detected with
the SCR system.
In the event of simultaneous system
fault and low AdBlue
® level, the
shortest 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 empty.
Range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When the ignition is switched on, no
information on range is displayed
automatically in the instrument panel.
When switching on the ignition, the
UREA


warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal and
the display of a message (e.g.: "Top up
emissions additive: Starting prevented
in 900 miles") indicating the remaining
range expressed in miles or kilometres.
When driving, the message is
displayed every 150 miles (300 km)
until the additive tank has been
topped-up.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the AdBlue
® tank
topped-up.
You can also top-up the tank yourself.
Refer to the "Topping-up" section. Remaining range between 350 and
1500 miles (600 and 2 400 km)

Topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Filling the AdBlue® tank is an operation
included in every routine service on
your vehicle by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Nevertheless, given the capacity
of the tank, it may be necessary to
top-up the additive between services,
more particularly if an alert (warning
lamps and a message) signals the
requirement.
You can got to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself,
please read the following warnings
carefully. Precautions in use
The AdBlue® additive is an urea-based
solution. This liquid is non-flammable,
colourless and odourless (kept in a
cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin,
wash the affected area with soap and
water. In the event of contact with the
eyes, wash (irrigate) the eyes with
large amounts of water or with an eye
wash solution for at least 15 minutes.
If a burning sensation or irritation
persists, get medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the
mouth with clean water and then drink
plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high ambient
temperature, for example), the risk
of release of ammonia cannot be
excluded: do not inhale the product.
Ammonia vapour has en irritant effect
on mucous membranes (eyes, nose
and throat).
Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of
children, in its original bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would loose its purity. Use only AdBlue
® additive that meets
the ISO 22241 standard.
Never dilute the additive with
water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel
fuel tank.
The supply in a non-drip bottle
simplifies toping-up. You can obtain
1.89 litre (half a US gallon) bottles
from a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Never top-up from an AdBlue
®
dispenser reserved for heavy
goods vehicles.

Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C
and deteriorates above 25°C. It is
recommended that bottles be stored in
a cool area and protected from direct
sunlight.
Under these conditions, the additive
can be kept for at least a year.
If the additive has frozen, can be used
once it has completely thawed out.
Never store bottles of AdBlue
® in
your vehicle. Procedure
Before topping-up, ensure that the
vehicle is parked on a flat and level
surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that
the temperature of the vehicle is
above
-11°C. Otherwise, by freezing,
the AdBlue
® cannot be poured into its
tank. Park your vehicle in a warmer
area for a few hours to allow the top-up
to be carried out.

- Obtain a bottle of AdBlue®. After
first checking the use-by date,
read carefully the instructions on
use on the label before pouring
the contents of the bottle into your
vehicle's AdBlue
® tank.
Important: if your vehicle's
AdBlue
® tank is completely empty -
which is confirmed by the alert
messages and the impossibility of
starting the engine, you must add at
least 3.8 litres (so two 1.89 litre bottles). -

After emptying the bottle, wipe
away any spilla

ge around the tank
filler using a damp cloth.
If any additive is split or splashed,
wash immediately with cold water
or wipe with a damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it
off using a sponge and hot water.

bottles in the household waste.
Place them in a special container
provided this purpose or take them to
your dealer. Important: in the event of a top-
up after a breakdown because
of a lack of additive, signalled
by the message "Top up emissions
additive: Starting prevented", you must
wait around 5 minutes before switching
on the ignition, without opening the
driver's door, locking the vehicle or
introducing the key into the ignition
switch.
Switch on the ignition, then, after
10 seconds, start the engine.
