Under-inflation alertReinitialisation
Before reinitialising the system, ensure 
that the pressures of the four tyres are 
correct for the use of the vehicle and in 
line with the recommendations on the 
tyre pressure label.
The under-inflation detection system 
does not give a warning if a pressure is 
incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
This is given by fixed illumination of 
this warning lamp, accompanied by 
an audible signal and the display of a 
message.
It is necessary to reinitialise the system every 
time one or more tyre pressure is adjusted, and 
after changing one or more wheels.
A label attached to the middle pillar, driver's 
side, gives a reminder of this.

f you have a compressor (such as the one 
in the temporary puncture repair kit) check

n the event of a puncture, use the 
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare 
wheel (depending on equipment),
The loss of pressure detected does not 
always cause visible bulging of the tyre. 
Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual 
check. The alert is maintained until the system 
is reinitialised.

deactivated. To assure the safety of your child, 
the passenger's front airbag must 
be deactivated when you install a 
"rear ward facing" child seat on the front 
passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being 
seriously injured or killed if the airbag 
were deployed.
Reactivating the passenger's 
front airbag
When you remove a "
rearward facing" child 
seat, with the ignition off , turn the switch to 
the "ON"  position to reactivate the airbag and 
so assure the safety of your front passenger in 
the event of an impact.
Front airbags

passenger's front airbag if it is deactivated, in the 
event of a serious front impact to all or part of the 
front impact zone A , in the longitudinal centreline 
of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed 
from the front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag inflates between the thorax and 
head of the front occupant of the vehicle and the 
steering wheel, driver's side, and the dashboard, 
passenger's side to cushion their forward 
movement. System which protects the driver and front 
passenger in the event of a serious front impact 
in order to limit the risk of injury to the head and 
thorax.
The driver's airbag is fitted in the centre of the 
steering wheel; the front passenger's airbag 
is fitted in the roof to allow more space in the 
glove box.
When the ignition is switched on, this 
warning lamp comes on in the seat 
belt display screen for approximately 
one minute to signal that the front 
airbag is activated.

Range indicators
When switching on the ignition, an indicator 
gives an estimate of the distance that can 
be travelled with your vehicle before engine 
starting is automatically prevented, once the 
vehicle starts using the reserve of AdBlue
® or 
after a fault is detected with the SCR system.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and 
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range is the one 
displayed. Range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When switching on the ignition, no information 
on range is displayed automatically in the 
instrument panel.
You can access this information in the touch 
screen tablet.
The engine start prevention system 
required by regulations is activated 
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is 
e m pt y.

To be able to start the engine, 
we recommend that you call on 
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop for the top-up required. If 
you carry out the top-up yourself, it is 
essential to add at least 3.8 litres of 
AdBlue
® to the tank.
Refer to the "Topping-up" section.
When switching on the ignition, the 
UREA
 
warning lamp comes on, accompanied 
by an audible signal and the display of a 
message (e.g.: "Top up emissions additive: 
Starting prevented in 900 miles") indicating 
the remaining range expressed in miles or 
kilometres.
When driving, the message is displayed every 
150 miles (300 km) until the additive tank has 
been topped-up.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the AdBlue
® tank topped-up.
You can also top-up the tank yourself.
Refer to the "Topping-up" section. When switching on the ignition, the SERVICE 
warning lamp comes on and the UREA warning 
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible 
signal and the display of a message (e.g. "Top 
up emissions additive: Starting prevented in 
350 miles") indicating the remaining range 
expressed in miles or kilometres.
When driving, the message is displayed every 
30 seconds until the additive tank has been 
topped-up.
Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop to have the AdBlue® tank topped-up.
You can also top-up the tank yourself.
Refer to the "Topping-up" section.
If you fail to do this, there is a risk that you will 
not be able to start your engine. When switching on the ignition, the SERVICE 
warning lamp comes on and the UREA warning 
lamp flashes, accompanied by an audible 
signal and the display of the message "Top up 
emissions additive: Starting prevented".
The AdBlue
® tank is empty: the system required 
by regulations prevents engine starting.

In the event of a fault with the the SCR emissions control system
In the event of the detection  
of a faultDuring an authorised driving phase (between 
650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)
A system that prevents engine starting is 
activated automatically from 650 miles 
(1 100 km) after 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.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert 
disappears once the exhaust gas 
emissions return to normal.
When switching on the ignition, the UREA, 
SERVICE and diagnostic warning lamps comes 
on, accompanied by an audible signal and the 
display of a message "Emissions fault" to signal 
a fault with the emissions control system.
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), when switching on the ignition, the 
SERVICE and engine diagnostic warning lamps 
come on and the UREA warning lamp flashes, 
accompanied by an audible signal and the 
display of a message (e.g.: "Emissions fault: 
Starting prevented in 150 miles") indicating the 
remaining range express in miles or kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every 
30 seconds while the fault with the SCR system 
persists.
You should go to a CITROËN dealer or a 
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If you fail to do this, there is a risk that you will 
not be able to start your engine.

Starting prevented
To be able to start the engine, you must call on 
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.You have exceeded the authorised 
driving limit: the starting prevention 
system inhibits engine starting.
Freezing of the AdBlue® 
additive
The AdBlue® additive freezes at 
temperatures below around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for 
the AdBlue
® tank.
In exceptional circumstances (vehicle 
kept for a long period at temperatures 
that are constantly below -15°C), an 
emissions control system fault alert may 
be related to freezing of the AdBlue
® in 
your vehicle.
Park your vehicle in a warmer area for 
a few hours until the additive becomes 
liquid again.
The emissions alert does not go off 
immediately, it will occur after several 
mile of running.
Every time the ignition is switched on, the SERVICE 
and engine diagnostic warning lamps come on and 
the UREA warning lamp flashes, accompanied by 
an audible signal and the display of the message 
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented".
