Limit the causes of excess 
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place 
the heaviest items at the back of the boot, as 
close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and 
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, 
bicycle carrier, trailer, etc.). Preferably, use a 
roof box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and 
refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations 
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, 
referring to the label in the door aperture, 
driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- 
b
 efore a long journey,
-
 
a
 t each change of season,
-
 
a
 fter a long period out of use.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on 
any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine 
oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin filter, etc.) and 
obser ve the schedule of operations in the 
manufacturer's service schedule. When filling the tank, do not continue after the 
3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only 
after the first 1,900
  miles (3,000   kilometres) 
that you will see the fuel consumption settle 
down to a consistent average. With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR 
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes 
polluting. Visit a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop as soon as possible to 
bring your vehicle’s nitrogen oxides emissions 
back in line with the regulations.

Warning and indicator lamps
Associated warnings
The illumination of a lamp may be accompanied 
by an audible signal and/or a message 
displayed in a screen.
Relating the type of alert to the operating status 
of the vehicle allows you to determine whether 
the situation is normal or a fault has occurred: 
refer to the description of each lamp for further 
information.
When the ignition is switched on
Certain red or orange warning lamps come on 
for a few seconds when the ignition is switched 
on. These warning lamps should go off as soon 
as the engine is started.
Persistent warning lamp
When the engine is running or the vehicle is 
being driven, the illumination of a red or orange 
warning lamp indicates a fault that needs 
further investigation, using any associated 
message and the description of the warning 
lamp in the documentation.
Where a lamp remains litThe references (1), (2)  and (3) in the warning 
and indicator lamp description indicate whether 
you should contact a qualified professional 
in addition to the immediate recommended 
actions.
Displayed as symbols, visual indicators 
which inform the driver of the occurrence of a 
malfunction (warning lamps) or of the operating 
status of a system (operation or deactivation 
indicator lamps). Certain lamps light up in 
two ways (fixed or flashing) and/or in several 
colours.
(1)
: You must stop as soon as it is safe to do 
so  and switch off the ignition.
(2): Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
(3) : Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
