Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items in the bottom 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.). Use a roof box in
preference.
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. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment
filter, etc.) and obser ve the schedule of
operations in the manufacturer's service
schedule. Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.
With a BlueHDi diesel engine, if the SCR
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes
polluting. Visit a CITROËN or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible to bring your
vehicle’s nitrogen oxide emissions back in line
with regulations.
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 1,800
miles (3,000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

AdBlue® fluid range
indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reser ve 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 a simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed.
In the event of the risk of
non-starting related to a
lack of AdBlue
®
The engine starting inhibition system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is
e m pt y.
Range greater than 1,500

miles (2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of the range in the instrument
panel.
Resetting the service indicator
After each service, the service indicator must
be reset to zero.
Following this operation, if you wish to
disconnect the battery, lock the vehicle
and wait at least five minutes for the zero
reset to be taken into account.

Remaining range between 1,500 and 350 miles (2,400 and 600 km)
When driving, this message is displayed every
180 miles (300 km) until the fluid level has been
topped up.
The reser ve level has been reached; it is
recommended that you top up as soon as
possible.
It is recommended that you do not top up by
more than 10
litres of AdBlue.
For more information on AdBlue
® and
the SCR system , and, in particular,
on topping up the AdBlue
®, refer to the
corresponding section. Range below 350
miles (600 km)
When driving, this message is displayed every
30 seconds until the AdBlue level has been
topped up.
It is essential to top up as soon as possible and
before the tank is completely empty; other wise
it will not be possible to restart the engine after
the next stop.
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of "NO START IN" and a
distance on the instrument panel, indicating the
driving range expressed in miles or kilometres
before engine starting is prevented –
(e.g. "NO START IN 900

miles" means
"Starting will be prevented in 900 miles").
When switching on the ignition, this warning
lamp flashes and the service warning lamp
comes on, accompanied by an audible signal

If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after auto diagnosis checks of the SCR
emissions control system.
During the permitted driving phase
(between 650
and 0 miles (1,100 km and
0


km))
While driving, the message is displayed every
30

seconds while the fault with the SCR
emissions control system persists.
The alert is repeated when switching on the
ignition. Starting prevented
You have exceeded the authorised driving
limit: the starting inhibition system does
not allow the engine to be started.
To be able to restart the engine, you must call
on a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.In the event of a fault with
the SCR emissions control
system
An engine starting inhibition device is
activated automatically after you have
driven a further 650 miles (1,100 km)
following 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.
In the event of the detection of a fault
These warning lamps come on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of the
message "Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered while driving as soon
as the fault is detected for the first time, then
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists. 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), these warning lamps come on and the
AdBlue warning lamp flashes, accompanied
by an audible signal and the temporary display
in the instrument cluster of NO START IN
and a distance, indicating the driving range
expressed in miles or kilometres before engine
starting is prevented – (e.g. "NO START IN
350
miles" means "Starting will be prevented in
350


miles").You should go to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise you will not be able to restart the
vehicle.
When switching on the ignition, these warning
lamps comes on and the AdBlue warning lamp
