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 Â
b
ars,  roof  rack,  bicycle  carrier,  trailer...).  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:
-
Â
b
efore  a  long  journey,
-
Â
a
t  each  change  of  season,
-
Â
a
fter  a  long  period  out  of  use.
Don't
 forget  the  spare  wheel  and  the  tyres  on  any  trailer  or  caravan.
Have
 your  vehicle  serviced  regularly  (engine  oil,  oil  filter,  air  filter, Â
p
assenger  compartment  filter...)  and  observe  the  schedule  of Â
o
perations  in  the  personalised  servicing  schedule  for  your  vehicle.
With
 a  BlueHDi  Diesel  engine,  if  the  SCR  system  develops  a  fault, Â
y
our  vehicle  becomes  polluting;  go  to  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified Â
w
orkshop  without  delay  to  have  the  emissions  of  nitrous  oxides  brought Â
w
ithin  the  limits  set  by  the  directive.
When
 refuelling,  do  not  continue  after  the  third  cut-off  of  the  nozzle  to Â
a
void  any  over flow.
At
 the  wheel  of  your  new  vehicle,  it  is  only  after  the  first  1  800  miles Â
(3
 000  kilometres)  that  you  will  see  the  fuel  consumption  settle  down  to Â
a
 consistent  average.

Warning lamps
When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires action on the  part  of  the  driver.
Any
 fault  resulting  in  the  illumination  of  a  warning  lamp  must  be  investigated  further  using  the  associated  message.
If
 you  encounter  any  problems,  contact  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified  workshop.

-
Â

In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines belo w:
F
Â
T
o  obtain  an  even  air  distribution,  take  care  not  to  obstruct  the  exterior  air  intake  grilles Â
l
ocated  at  the  base  of  the  windscreen,  the  nozzles,  the  vents  and  the  air  outlets,  as  well Â
a
s  the  air  extractor  located  in  the  boot.
F
Â
D
o  not  cover  the  sunshine  sensor,  located  on  the  dashboard;  this  is  used  for  regulation Â
o
f  the  air  conditioning  system.
F
Â
O
perate  the  air  conditioning  system  for  at  least  5  to  10  minutes,  once  or  twice  a  month Â
t
o  keep  it  in  per fect  working  order.
F
Â
E
nsure  that  the  passenger  compartment  filter  is  in  good  condition  and  have  the  filter Â
e
lements  replaced  regularly.
  W
e  recommend  the  use  of  a  combined  passenger  compartment  filter.  Thanks  to  its Â
s
pecial  active  additive,  it  contributes  to  the  purification  of  the  air  breathed  by  the Â
o
ccupants  and  the  cleanliness  of  the  passenger  compartment  (reduction  of  allergic Â
s
ymptoms,  bad  odours  and  greasy  deposits).
F
Â
T
o  ensure  correct  operation  of  the  air  conditioning  system,  you  are  also  advised  to  have Â
i
t  checked  regularly  as  recommended  in  the  maintenance  and  warranty  guide.
F
Â
I
f  the  system  does  not  produce  cold  air,  switch  it  off  and  contact  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a Â
q
ualified
 w
orkshop.
Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the  i nterior  t emperature  i s  v ery  h igh,  f irst Â
v
entilate  the  passenger  compartment  for Â
a
 few  moments.
Put
 the  air  flow  control  at  a  setting  high Â
e
nough  to  quickly  change  the  air  in  the Â
p
assenger
 c
ompartment.
The
 air  conditioning  system  does  not Â
c
ontain  chlorine  and  does  not  present Â
a
ny  danger  to  the  ozone  layer.
The
 condensation  created  by  the  air Â
c
onditioning  results  in  a  discharge Â
o
f  water  under  the  vehicle  which  is Â
p
er fectly  normal.

Coolant level
The coolant level should be close to  the  "MA X"  mark  but  should  never Â
e
xceed  it.
In

 w
ait
Â
at
Â
least  one  hour  after  switching  off  the
 e

Â
before  carrying  out  any  work.
To
Â
avoid
Â
any  risk  of  scalding,  unscrew  the  cap  by
 t

to  allow  the  pressure  to  drop.  When  the
 p
ressure
Â
has  dropped,  remove  the  cap  and  top
 u
p
Â
the
Â
level.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be replaced at routine services.
The cooling fan may star t after switching
off the engine: take care with ar ticles and
clothing that might be caught by the fan
blades. When  the  engine  is  warm,  the  temperature  of Â
t
he  coolant  is  regulated  by  the  fan.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the ma
nufacturer's r ecommendations.
Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing, this  fluid  must  not  be  topped  up  or  replaced Â

Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
O ther wise,  have  them  checked  by  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified  workshop.
Depending
 on  the  environment  (e.g.  dusty Â
a

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