For petrol engines, you must use unleaded
fuel.
The filler neck is narrower, allowing only
u
nleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device

collision.
Fuel cut- of f
If you have put in the wrong fuel
for your vehicle, you must have the
fuel tank drained and filled with
the correct fuel before star ting
the
engine.

Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with E10 type petrol biofuels (containing 10 % ethanol),
c
onforming to European standards EN 228
a
nd EN 15376.
E85
type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol)
a
re reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed
f
or the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex
v
ehicles). The quality of the ethanol must
c
omply with European standard EN 15293.
Fuel used for Diesel
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with biofuels which conform to current and future
E
uropean standards (Diesel fuel which
c
omplies with standard EN 590 mixed with
a
biofuel which complies with standard
E
N 14214) available at the pumps (containing
u
p to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
B30
biofuel can be used in certain Diesel
e
ngines. However, this use, even occasional,
r
equires strict application of the special
s
ervicing conditions. Contact a CITROËN
d
ealer or a qualified workshop.
The
use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(
vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
d
omestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
d
amage to the engine and fuel system).

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

Range indicators
When switching on the ignition, an indicator gives an estimate of the distance that can
b
e travelled with your vehicle before engine
s
tarting is automatically prevented, once the
v
ehicle starts using the reserve of AdBlue
® or
after
a
fault
is
detected
with
the
SCR
system.
In
the
event
of
simultaneous
system
fault
and
l
ow
AdBlue
® level, the shortest range is the one d
isplayed. Range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When
the ignition is switched on, no
i
nformation on range is displayed automatically
i
n the instrument panel.
The engine start prevention system
r
equired by regulations is activated
a
utomatically once the AdBlue
® tank is e
m pt y.

The
AdBlue

emperatures below around -11°C.
The
SCR
system includes a heater
