Compatibility of fuels
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with biofuels
that conform to current and future European
standards and can be obtained from filling
stations:Petrol that meets the
EN228
standard, mixed with a bio-
fuel meeting the EN15376
standard.
The only petrol additives authorised
for use are those that meet the
B715001


standard.
Fuel used for Diesel
engines
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214
(possibly
containing up to 10% Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester),
Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets
standard EN15940
mixed with a biofuel
that meets standard EN14214
(possibly
containing up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester).
B20
or B30 fuel that meets standard
EN16709
can be used with your Diesel
engine. However, the use of this
fuel, even occasional, requires strict
application of the special ser vicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous
conditions".
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop. The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel, etc.) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
syste m). The only Diesel additives authorised
for use are those that meet the
B715000


standard.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0°C (+32°F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type diesel
fuels could entail an abnormal operation
of the fuel supply circuit. To avoid this, we
recommend using winter-type diesel fuel and
keeping the fuel tank more than 50% full.
If, despite this, at temperatures below -15°C
(+5°F) the engine has problems starting,
just leave the vehicle in a garage or heated
workshop for a little while.
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage the engine of your
vehicle.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
For any additional information, contact a dealer.
The Diesel engines are compatible with
biofuels that conform to current and future
European standards and can be obtained from
filling stations:
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590

mixed with a biofuel that meets
standard EN14214


(possibly containing
up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester),
