AdBlue® additive and SCR system
f
or
BlueHDi Diesel engines
To assure respect for the environment and c
onformity with the new Euro 6 emissions
s
tandard, without adversely affecting the
p
er formance or fuel consumption of Diesel
e
ngines, CITROËN has taken the decision to
e
quip its vehicles with an effective system that
a
ssociates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction)
w
ith a particle filter (FAP) for the treatment of
e
xhaust gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using an additive called AdBlue® containing u
rea,
a
catalytic
converter
turns
up to 85%
o
f
nitrous
oxides
(NOx)
into
nitrogen and
w
ater,
which
are
harmless
to
health and the
e
nvironment. The
AdBlue
® additive is held in a special t
ank
located
under the boot at the rear of
t
he
vehicle.
It has a capacity of 17 litres: this
p
rovides
a
driving range of about 12 500 miles
(
20
000
km),
after which an alert is triggered
w
arning
you
when the reserve remaining is
e
nough
for
just 1 500 miles (2 400 km).
During
each
scheduled service of your vehicle
b
y
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop,
t
he
AdBlue
® additive tank is refilled in order to a
llow
normal operation of the SCR system.
If
the
estimated mileage between two services
i
s
greater
than 12 500 miles (20 000 km), we
r
ecommend
that you go to a CITROËN dealer
o
r
a
qualified workshop to have the necessary
t
op-up
carried out. Once
the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a s
ystem
required
by regulations prevents
s
tarting
of
the
engine.
If the SCR
is faulty, the level of
emissions
from
your vehicle will no
l
onger
meet
the
Euro 6 standard: your
v
ehicle
becomes
polluting.
In
the
event
of
a
confirmed fault
w
ith
the
SCR
system, you must go
t
o
a
CITROËN
dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop
as
soon as possible: after
a
running
distance of 650 miles
(
1 100
km),
a
system will be triggered
a
utomatically
to
prevent engine starting.

Breakdown related to a lack of AdBlue® additive
When switching on the ignition, the SERVICE w
arning lamp comes on and the UREA
w
arning lamp flashes, accompanied by an
a
udible signal and the temporary display in
t
he instrument panel of "NO START IN" and
0 k
m or miles - ("NO START IN 0 miles" means
"
Starting
p
revented").
The
Ad
Blue
® tank is empty: t he s ystem r equired b
y
regulations prevents engine starting.
Remaining range between 0 and 350 miles (0 and 600 km)
When switching on the ignition, the SERVICE warning lamp comes on and the UREA
w
arning lamp flashes, accompanied by an
a
udible signal and the temporary display in
t
he instrument panel of "NO START IN" and
a
distance indicating the remaining range
e
xpressed in miles or kilometres before
e
ngine starting is prevented - (For example
"
NO START IN 180 miles" means "Starting will
b
e prevented in 180 miles).
When
driving, this display appears every
3
0 seconds until the additive tank has been
t
opped-up.
Go
to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop to have the AdBlue
® tank topped-up.
Y
ou
can
also
top-up
the
tank
yourself.
Other wise you will not be able to restart your
engine.
For
more
information
on
topping-up the
Ad
Blue
® additive, refer to the corresponding s
ection. To
be able to start the engine,
w
e recommend that you call on
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop for the top-up required. If
y
ou carry out the top-up yourself, it is
e
ssential to add at least 3.8 litres of
Ad
Blue
® to the additive tank.

Star ting prevented
Every time the ignition is switched on, the
S
ERVICE and engine diagnostic warning
l
amps come on and the UREA warning lamp
f
lashes, accompanied by the temporary display
o
f "NO START IN" and 0 miles or kilometres -
(
"NO START IN 0 miles" means "Starting
p
revented").
To
be able to start the engine, you must call on
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
You
have exceeded the authorised
d
riving limit: the starting prevention
s
ystem inhibits engine starting.
In the event of a fault with the the SCR emissions control system
In the event of the detection
of a fault
The UREA, SERVICE and diagnostic warning
l
amps comes on, accompanied by an audible
s
ignal and the display of the message
"
Emissions
f
ault".
The
alert is triggered when driving, when
t
he fault is detected for the first time, then
w
hen switching on the ignition for subsequent
j
ourneys, while the fault persists.During an authorised driving phase
(between 650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)
If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed (after 3 0 miles (50 km) covered with the permanent display o
f the message signalling a fault), the SERVICE
a
nd engine diagnostic warning lamps come on and
t
he UREA warning lamp flashes, accompanied by
a
n audible signal and the temporary display in the
i
nstrument panel of "NO START IN" and a distance,
i
ndicating the remaining range express in miles or
k
ilometres before engine starting is prevented -
(
e.g.: "NO START IN 350 miles" means "Starting will
b
e prevented in 350 miles").
A system that prevents engine starting is activated automatically from 650 miles (1 100 km) after confirmation of a fault with the SCR emissions control system. Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If
it is a temporary fault, the alert
d
isappears during the next journey,
a
fter a self diagnosis test of the SCR
e
missions control system.
While driving, this display appears every 30 seconds while the fault with the SCR system p
ersists.
The
alert is repeated when switching on the ignition.
You
should go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop as soon as possible.
Other wise, you will not be able to restart your
engine.

Freezing of the AdBlue® additive
The
AdBlue
® additive freezes at t
emperatures below around -11°C.
The
SCR
system includes a heater
f
or
the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to c
ontinue
driving in very cold conditions.
Topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Precautions in use
Use only AdBlue® additive that meets the
I
SO
22241
standard.
The
supply
in
a
non-drip bottle simplifies
t
opping-up.
You
can obtain 1.89 litre (half a US
g
allon)
bottles
from a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
Keep
AdBlue
® out of the reach of
children,
in
its
original bottle.
Never
transfer AdBlue
® to another
container:
it
would
lose
its purity. Never
dilute the additive with water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel
f
uel tank.
Never top-up from an AdBlue®
dispenser
reserved
for
heavy
goods
v
ehicles.
Filling
the
AdBlue
® tank is an operation i
ncluded
in
every
routine service on your
v
ehicle
by
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop.
Nevertheless,
given the capacity of the tank,
i
t
may
be
necessary to top-up the additive
b
etween
services,
more particularly if an alert
(
warning
lamps
and a message) signals the
r
equirement.
You
can
got
to
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop.
If
you
envisage
topping-up yourself, please
r
ead
the
following
warnings carefully. The
AdBlue
® additive is an urea-based s
olution.
This liquid is non-flammable,
c
olourless
and odourless (kept in a cool area).
In
the
event
of contact with the skin, wash
t
he
affected
area with soap and water. In the
e
vent
of
contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate)
t
he
eyes
with large amounts of water or with
a
n
eye
wash
solution for at least 15 minutes.
I
f
a
burning
sensation or irritation persists, get
m
edical
attention.
If
swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
w
ith
clean
water and then drink plenty of water.
In
certain
conditions (high ambient
t
emperature,
for example), the risk of release
o
f
ammonia
cannot be excluded: do not inhale
t
he
product.
Ammonia vapour has an irritant
e
ffect
on
mucous membranes (eyes, nose and
t
hroat).
