To assure respect for the environment and  conformity  with  the  new  Euro  6 Â
emissions
 standard,  without  adversely Â
af
fecting  the  performance  or  fuel Â
consumption
 of  Diesel  engines, Â
CITROËN
 has  taken  the  decision  to Â
equip
 its  vehicles  with  an  effective Â
system
 that  associates  SCR  (Selective Â
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle
filter
 (FAP)  for  the  treatment  of  exhaust Â
gases.
Presentation of the Scr system
Using an additive called adBlue®
containing urea, a catalytic converter
turns up to 85% of nitrous oxides
(
no
x) into nitrogen and water, which
are
Â
harmless
Â
to
Â
health
Â
and
Â
the
Â
environment.
The
a
dBlue
® additive is held in a
special
Â
tank
Â
located  under  the  boot Â
at
Â
the
Â
rear
Â
of  the  vehicle.  It  has  a Â
capacity
Â
of
Â
17  litres:  this  provides  a Â
driving
Â
range  of  about  12  500  miles Â
(20
Â
000 km),  after  which  an  alert Â
is triggered warning you when the
reserve
Â
remaining  is  enough  for  just Â
1
Â
500
Â
miles
Â
(2 Â 400 Â km).
d
uring each scheduled service of
your vehicle by a CITR
o Ë n dealer
or
Â
a
Â
qualified  workshop,  the Â
AdBlue®
additive
Â
tank
Â
is
Â
refilled
Â
in
Â
order
Â
to
Â
allow Â
normal
Â
operation
Â
of
Â
the
Â
SCR
Â
system.
If
Â
the
Â
estimated
Â
mileage
Â
between
Â
two services is greater than
12Â 500Â miles
Â
(20
Â
000
Â
km),
Â
we
Â
recommend
Â
that
Â
you
Â
go
Â
to
Â
a
Â
CITROËN Â
dealer
Â
or
Â
a
Â
qualified
Â
workshop
Â
to
Â
have Â
the
Â
necessary
Â
top-up
Â
carried
Â
out.
o
nce the a dBlue
® tank is empty, a
Â
system
Â
required  by  regulations Â
prevents
Â
starting
Â
of  the  engine.
If the SCR
is faulty, the level of
emissions
Â
from
Â
your
Â
vehicle  will  no Â
longer
Â
meet
Â
the
Â
Euro
Â
6 Â standard: Â you Â
vehicle
Â
becomes
Â
polluting.
In
Â
the
Â
event
Â
of
Â
a
Â
confirmed  fault Â
with
Â
the
Â
SCR
Â
system,
Â
you  must  go Â
to
Â
a
Â
CITROËN
Â
dealer
Â
or  a  qualified Â
workshop
Â
as
Â
soon
Â
as
Â
possible: Â after Â
a
Â
running
Â
distance
Â
of
Â
650 Â miles Â
(1
Â
100
Â
km),
Â
a
Â

Â
will  be  triggered Â
automatically
Â
to
Â
prevent  engine Â
starting.

topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Filling the adBlue® tank is an operation included in every routine service on
your vehicle by a CITR
o Ë n dealer
or
Â
a
Â
qualified
Â
workshop.
n
evertheless, given the capacity
of
Â
the

tank,
Â
it
Â
may
 be  necessary  to Â
top-up the additive between services,
more
Â
particularly
Â
if  an  alert  (warning Â

Â
and
Â
a
Â
message)  signals  the Â
requirement.
Y

If you envisage topping-up yourself,
please read the following warnings
carefully. Precautions in use
The
a dBlue® additive is an urea-based
solution.
 This  liquid  is  non-flammable, Â
colourless
Â
and  odourless  (kept  in  a Â
cool
Â
area).
In
Â
the
Â
event
Â
of  contact  with  the  skin, Â
wash the af
fected area with soap and
water.
Â
In
Â
the
 event  of  contact  with  the Â
eyes, wash (irrigate) the eyes with
large
Â
amounts  of  water  or  with  an  eye Â
wash
Â
solution  for  at  least  15  minutes. Â
If a burning sensation or irritation
persists,
Â
get
 medical  attention.
If
Â
swallowed,  immediately  wash  out  the Â
mouth
Â
with
Â
clean  water  and  then  drink Â
plenty
Â
of
Â
water.
In
Â
certain
Â
conditions  (high  ambient Â
temperature,
 for  example),  the  risk Â
of
Â
release
Â
of
 ammonia  cannot  be Â
excluded:
Â
do  not  inhale  the  product. Â

recommendations on storage
a
dBlue® freezes at about -11°C and
Â
deteriorates  above  25°C.  It  is Â
recommended
 that  bottles  be  stored  in Â
a
Â
cool
Â
area  and  protected  from  direct Â
sunlight.
Under these conditions, the additive
can
Â
be
Â
kept  for  at  least  a  year.
If the additive has frozen, can be used
once
Â
it
Â
has  completely  thawed  out.
n
ever store bottles of
a
dBlue

your
Â
vehicle. Procedure
Before topping-up, ensure that the
vehicle
 is  parked  on  a  flat  and  level Â
surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that
the
 temperature  of  the  vehicle  is Â
above -1
1°C.  Otherwise,  by  freezing, Â
the
