Headlamp adjustment
To avoid causing a nuisance to other road
users, the height of the headlamp beams
should be adjusted according to the load in the
vehicle.
Depending on the version, this adjustment can
be carried out using the control located:
-
U
nder the bonnet.
-

T

Reversing camera
The reversing camera is activated automatically
when reverse gear is engaged.
The image is displayed on the touch screen.
The reversing camera function may be
supplemented with parking sensors.
The superimposed representation of guide
lines helps with the manoeuvre.
They are represented by lines marked "on
the ground" and do not allow the position of
the vehicle to be determined relative to tall
obstacles (for example: other vehicles, etc.).
Some distortion of the image is normal.The blue lines represent the general direction
of the vehicle (the gap represents the width of
your vehicle except for the door mirrors).
The red lines represent a distance of about
30
cm beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear
b u m p e r.
The green lines represent distances of about
1 and 2 metres beyond the edge of your
vehicle's rear bumper.
The turquoise blue cur ves represent the
maximum turning circle.
The reversing camera is only an aid and
the driver must remain cautious at all times.
High pressure jet wash
When washing your vehicle, do not direct
the lance within 30
cm of the camera lens.
Opening the boot lid causes the display to
disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using a soft, dry cloth.

Procedure
Before topping up, ensure that the vehicle is
parked on a flat and level sur face.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the
temperature of the vehicle is above -11°C.
Otherwise the AdBlue
® may freeze and so
cannot be poured into its tank. Park your
vehicle in a warmer area for a few hours to
allow the top-up to be carried out.

et a bottle of AdBlue
®. After first checking
the use-by date, read the instructions on
use on the label carefully before pouring
the contents of the bottle into your vehicle's
AdBlue
® tank.
Important: if your vehicle's AdBlue
® tank is
completely empty – which is confirmed by
the alert displays and the impossibility of
starting the engine – you must add at least
3.8

litres (so two 1.89

litre bottles).
F

A

fter emptying the bottle, wipe away any
spillage around the tank filler using a damp
cloth. If any additive is spilt or splashed, wash
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it off
using a sponge and hot water.

Practical information

118
Running out of fuel
(Diesel)
On vehicles fitted with an HDi engine, the fuel
system must be primed if you run out of fuel.
For more information about the Engines, in
particular the location of the different parts
under the bonnet, refer to the corresponding
section.
For more information on Diesel misfuel
prevention , refer to the corresponding section.
If the engine does not start the first time,
don't keep trying, but start the procedure
again from the beginning.
HDi 92 engine
F If the engine does not start after a few
attempts, operate the priming pump again
then start the engine.
F

C

Temporary puncture
repair kit
Comprising a compressor and a sealant
cartridge, it allows the temporary repair of
a tyre so that you can drive to the nearest
garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which
could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.
Access to the kit
F Fill the fuel tank with at least five litres of diesel.
F

O

F

O
perate the priming pump repeatedly until
resistance is felt (there may be resistance at
the first press).
F

O

the engine does not start at the first attempt,
wait around 15
seconds before trying
again). This kit is installed in the storage box, under
the boot floor.

Spare wheel
Procedure for changing a damaged wheel with
the spare wheel using the tools provided with
the vehicle.
Access to tooling
List of tools
1Wheelbrace.
For removing the hub cap and removing
the wheel bolts.
2 Jack with integrated crank.
Used to raise the vehicle.
3 Wheel bolt cover removal tool.

wheels.
4 Towing eye.
For more information on Towing the vehicle ,
refer to the corresponding section. All of these tools are specific to your
vehicle and may vary according to the
level of equipment.
Do not use them for any other purposes.
The jack must only be used to change a
wheel with a damaged or punctured tyre.
Do not use any jack other than the one
supplied with this vehicle.
If the vehicle does not have its original jack,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop to obtain the correct jack for it.
The jack meets European standards,
as defined in the Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC.
The jack does not require any
maintenance.

If there is no wheel in the well, the
fastening device (nut and bolt) cannot be
refitted.
The spare wheel is installed in the boot, under
t h e f l o o r.
Depending on the engine, the spare wheel is
a standard wheel or the "space-saver" type
(BlueHDi 100). F

125
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the
ground is slippery or loose, the jack may
slip or drop – Risk of injury!
Take care to place the jack only at the
jacking points A or B under the vehicle,
ensuring that the contact point of the
vehicle is centred on the jack head.
Other wise, there is a risk of damage to the
vehicle and/or the jack dropping – Risk of
injury!Stowing the damaged wheel
The damaged wheel can be stowed under
the floor, in the housing for the standard
spare wheel.
To stow an alloy wheel, first remove the
hub cap from the middle of the wheel so
that the fastening device (nut and bolt) can
be put in place.
In the case of a "space-saver" type spare
wheel, the damaged wheel cannot be
stowed under the floor. It must be stowed
in the boot; use a cover to protect the
inside of the boot.
F

E

xtend the jack 2

into contact with the jacking point A or B ,
whichever is used; the contact area A or B
on the vehicle must be correctly inserted
into the central part of the head of the jack.

Never try to charge a frozen battery – risk
of explosion!
If the battery has frozen, have it checked
by a CITROËN dealer or by a qualified
workshop who will check that the internal
components have not been damaged and
that the container has not cracked, which
would mean a risk of toxic and corrosive
acid leaking.
Disconnecting the battery
In order to maintain an adequate state
of charge for starting the engine, it is
recommended that the battery be disconnected
if the vehicle is taken out of ser vice for a long
period.
Before disconnecting the battery:
F
C
lose all accesses (doors, boot, windows).
F

S
witch off all electrical connsumers (audio
system, wipers, lighting, etc.).
F

S
witch off the ignition and wait for four
minutes.
After accessing the battery, you only have to
disconnect the (+) terminal.
Quick-release terminal clamp
Disconnecting the (+) terminal
Reconnecting the (+) terminal
Do not force the lever as locking will be
impossible if the clamp is not positioned
correctly; start the procedure again.
After reconnecting the
battery
F Raise the lever A fully to release the clamp B.
F

R
emove the clamp B by lifting it off.
F

Ra
ise the lever A fully.
F

R
efit the open clamp B on the (+) terminal.
F

P
ush the clamp B fully down.
F

L
ower the lever A to lock the clamp B .After reconnecting the battery, turn on the
ignition and wait 1
minute before starting
the engine, in order to enable the electronic
systems to initialise.
If minor problems nevertheless persist
following this operation, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Referring to the corresponding section, you
must reset certain systems yourself, such as:
-

T
he key with remote control.
-

T
he date and time.
-

T
he preset radio stations.
The Stop & Start system may not be
operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be
available again after a continuous
period of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the exterior
temperature and the state of charge of the
battery (up to about 8
hours).
