Quality of the fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly com-
patible with E10 or E24 type petrol bio-
fuels (containing 10 % or 24 % ethanol),
conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for ve-
hicles marketed for the use of this type
of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of
the ethanol must comply with European
standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up
to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).
Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly com-
patible with biofuels which conform to
current and future European standards
(Diesel fuel which complies with stan-
dard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which
complies with standard EN 14214)
available at the pumps (containing up
to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain
Diesel engines; however, this use is sub-
ject to strict application of the special ser-
vicing conditions. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
system).

ACCESS
Mechanical device which prevents fi lling
the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol.
It avoids the risk of engine damage that
can result from fi lling with the wrong
fuel.
Located in the fi ller neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the
fi ller cap is removed.
MISFUEL PREVENTION(DIESEL)
*Operation
When a petrol fi ller nozzle is introduced into
the fuel fi ller neck of your Diesel vehicle, it
comes into contact with the fl ap. The sys-
tem remains closed and prevents fi lling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel
type fi ller nozzle.
It remains possible to use a fuel
can to fi ll the tank.
In order to ensure a good fl ow
of fuel, do not place the nozzle
of the fuel can in direct contact
with the fl ap of the misfuel pre-
vention device and pour slowly.
This tool will become available during
the year.
*
According to country of sale.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles
may be different in other coun-
tries, the presence of the misfuel
prevention device may make re-
fuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we
recommend that you check with
the CITROËN dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable
for the fuel pumps in the country
in which you want to travel.
Deactivation
Before refuelling using non-standard
Diesel fuel nozzles (present in some
countries), a tool allows you to tem-
porarily disable the misfuel prevention
device.
Use
)
With the handle vertical
, introduce
the tool into the fi ller neck as far as it
will go.
)
Turn the tool a quarter turn to the
right or left.
)
Remove the tool completely.
)
Fill with fuel.
The misfuel prevention device
will be activated the next time a
standard nozzle is used.
