The servicing interval has been exceededFor 5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the spanner flashes to indicate that
the service must be carried out as soon as
possible.
Example: the service is overdue by 186 miles
(3 0 0 k m).
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the screen indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the total distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The spanner remains on .
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, this alert
is also accompanied by the continuous
illumination of the Service warning light
when the ignition is switched on. The remaining mileage may be weighted
by time according to the driver’s driving
habits.
The spanner may therefore also come
on if you have exceeded the period
since the last service, as indicated in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the spanner
may also come on early, depending on the
degree of deterioration of the engine oil
(depending on the country of sale).
The degree of deterioration of the engine
oil depends on the driving conditions in
which the vehicle is used.Resetting the service indicator
The service indicator must be reset after each
service.
The procedure for resetting to zero is as
follows:

AdBlue® liquid range indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reserve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed.
Range greater than 1,500 miles (2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of range in the instrument
panel.
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

Range between 0 and 1,500 miles (0 and 2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, the AdBlue
warning light comes on, accompanied by
an audible signal and the temporary display
of "NO START IN" and a distance on the
instrument panel, indicating the remaining
range expressed in miles or kilometres before
engine starting is prevented - (e.g. "NO START
IN 1500 km" means "Starting will be prevented
in 1,500 km (930 miles).
When driving, this message is displayed every
186 miles (300 km) until the AdBlue level has
been topped-up.

The reserve level has been reached: it is
recommended that you top-up as soon as

In the event of a fault with the emissions control system SCR
A device preventing the engine from
starting automatically activates after
685 miles (1,100 km) of driving following
confirmation of a fault in the SCR
emissions control system. Have the
system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible. In the event of the detection of a fault
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after
self-diagnosis of the emissions SCR
system. or
If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed (after 30
miles (50 km) covered with the permanent display
of the message signalling a fault), the Service and
engine diagnostic warning lights come on and
the AdBlue warning light flashes, accompanied
by an audible signal and the temporary display in
the instrument cluster of "NO START IN" and a
distance, indicating the remaining range expressed
in miles or kilometres before engine starting is
prevented - (e.g.: "NO START IN 600 km" means
"Starting will be prevented in 600 km (375 miles).
While driving, this display appears every
30
