a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer
 
or
 
a
 
q

workshop
 
as
 
soon
 
as
 
possible.
If
  it   is   a   temporary   fault,   the   alert  
d

isappears   during   the   next   journey,  
a

fter   self-diagnosis   of   the   SCR   system.
The
  UREA,   SERVICE   and   diagnostic   warning  
l

amps   comes   on,   accompanied   by   an   audible  
s

ignal   and   the   display   of   the   message  
"

ault".
The
  alert   is   triggered   when   driving   when   the  
f

ault   is   detected   for   the   first   time,   then   when  
s

witching   on   the   ignition   for   subsequent  
j

ourneys,   while   the   fault   persists. If
  a   fault   with   the   SCR   system   is   confirmed  
(

after   30   miles   (50   km)   covered   with   the  
p

ermanent   display   of   the   message   signalling  
a

  fault),   the   SERVICE   and   engine   diagnostic  
w

arning   lamps   come   on   and   the   UREA  
w

arning   lamp   flashes,   accompanied   by   an  
a

(

e.g.:   "Emissions   fault:   Starting   prevented   in  
1

50 miles")   indicating   the   remaining   range  
e

xpress   in   miles   or   kilometres.
While
  driving,   the   message   is   displayed   every  
3

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  
d

riving   limit:   the   starting   prevention  
s

ystem   inhibits   engine   starting.Freezing of the AdBlue
® additive
The
 
AdBlue
® additive freezes at t
emperatures   below   around   -11°C.
The
 
SCR
 
system   includes   a   heater  
f

or
 
the
 
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to c
ontinue
 
driving   in   very   cold   conditions.
Every time  the  ignition  is  switched  on,  the  SERVICE a
nd   engine   diagnostic   warning   lamps   come   on   and t

 a

n   audible   signal   and   the   display   of   the   message
 "

Emissions   fault:   Starting   prevented".

Topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Precautions in useFilling the AdBlue® tank is an operation i
ncluded
 
in
 
every
 
routine   service   on   your  
v

ehicle
 
by
 
a
 
CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop.
Nevertheless,
 
given   the   capacity   of   the   tank,  
i

t
 
may
 
be
 
necessary   to   top-up   the   additive  
b

etween
 
services,
  more   particularly   if   an   alert  
(

warning
 
lamps
 
and   a   message)   signals   the  
r

equirement.
You
 
can
 
got
 
to
 
a
 
CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop.
If
 
you
 
envisage
 
topping-up   yourself,   please  
r

ead
 
the
 
following
 
warnings   carefully. Keep
  AdBlue
® out of the reach of
children,
 
in
 
its
  original   bottle.
Never
 
transfer   AdBlue
® to another
container:
 
it
 
would
 
loose   its   purity. Never
  dilute   the   additive   with   water.
Never   pour   the   additive   into   the   Diesel  
f

uel   tank.
Never   top-up   from   an   AdBlue®
dispenser
 
reserved
 
for
 
heavy
 
goods  
v

ehicles.
Use
 
only
 
AdBlue
® additive that meets t
he ISO 22241
 
standard.
The
 
supply
 
in
 
a
 
non-drip   bottle   simplifies  
t

oping-up.
 
You
 
can   obtain   1.89   litre   (half   a  
U

S gallon)
 
bottles   from   a   CITROËN dealer   or   a  
q

ualified
 w

orkshop.
The
 
AdBlue® additive is an urea-based s
olution.
 
This   liquid   is   non-flammable,  
c

olourless
 
and   odourless   (kept   in   a   cool   area).
In
 
the
 
event
 
of   contact   with   the   skin,   wash  
t

he
 
affected
 
area   with   soap   and   water.   In   the  
e

vent
 
of
 
contact   with   the   eyes,   wash   (irrigate)  
t

he
 
eyes
 
with   large   amounts   of   water   or   with  
a

n
 
eye
 
wash
  solution   for   at   least   15   minutes.  
I

f
 
a
 
burning
 
sensation   or   irritation   persists,   get  
m

edical
 
attention.
If
 
swallowed,   immediately   wash   out   the   mouth  
w

ith
 
clean
 
water   and   then   drink   plenty   of   water.
In
 
certain
 
conditions   (high   ambient  
t

emperature,
  for   example),   the   risk   of   release  
o

f
 
ammonia
 
cannot   be   excluded:   do   not   inhale  
t

he
 
product.
 
Ammonia   vapour   has   en   irritant  
e

ffect
 
on
 
mucous   membranes   (eyes,   nose   and  
t

hroat).

F Switch  on   the   compressor   by   moving  t
he switch B to position "I" until the tyre
pressure
  reaches   2.0   bars.
 T

he   sealant   is   injected   into   the   tyre   under  
p

ressure;   do   not   disconnect   the   pipe   from  
t

he   valve   during   this   operation   (risk   of  
sp

lashing).
If
  after   around   5   to   7   minutes   the  
p

ressure   is   not   attained,   this   indicates  
t

hat   the   tyre   is   not   repairable;   contact  
a

  CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop   for   assistance. F
 R emove   the   kit   and   screw   the   cap   back   on  t

Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not block   traffic:   the   ground   must   be   level,  
s

table   and   not   slippery.
Apply
  the   parking   brake,   switch   off   the  
i

gnition   and   engage   first   gear   to   block  
t

he   wheels.
Check
  that   the   parking   brake   warning  
l

amps   in   the   instrument   panel   come   on.
The
  occupants   must   get   out   of   the  
v

ehicle   and   wait   where   they   are   safe.
Ensure
  that   the   jack   is   correctly  
p

ositioned   at   one   of   the   vehicle's  
j

acking   points.
Incorrect
  use   of   the   jack   could   cause  
t

he   vehicle   to   drop.
Never
  go   underneath   a   vehicle   raised  
u

sing   a   jack;   use   an   axle   stand.

Driving advice
Distribution of loads
F Distribute  the   load   in   the   trailer   so   that  t
he heaviest   items   are   as   close   as  
p

ossible   to   the   axle   and   the   nose   weight  
a

pproaches   the   maximum   permitted  
w

ithout   exceeding   it.
Air
  density   decreases   with   altitude,   thus  
r

educing   engine   per formance.   Above  
1 0

00 metres,   the   maximum   towed   load   must  
b

e   reduced   by   10 %   for   every   1 000   metres   of  
al

titude.
Side wind
F Take   into   account   the   increased   sensitivity  t
o   side   wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature   of   the   coolant.
As
  the   fan   is   electrically   controlled,   its   cooling  
c

apacity   is   not   dependent   on   the   engine   speed.
F
 
T
o   lower   the   engine   speed,   reduce   your  
s

peed.
The
  maximum   towed   load   on   a   long   incline  
d

epends   on   the   gradient   and   the   ambient  
t

emperature.
In
  all   cases,   keep   a   check   on   the   coolant  
t

emperature. F
 
I
f   the   warning   lamp   and   the  
S

TOP
 
warning   lamp   come   on,  
s

top   the   vehicle   and   switch   off  
t

he   engine   as   soon   as   possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o   avoid   overheating   of   the   brakes   on   a   long  
m

ountain   type   of   descent,   the   use   of   engine  
b

raking   is   recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check   the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  v
ehicle   and   of   the   trailer,   observing   the  
re

commended
 p
ressures.
Lighting
F Check  the   electrical   lighting   and   signalling  o
n   the   trailer.

remove
 
the
 
q

tow
 
ball
 
before

Maximum load, distributed over the roof bars,   for   a   loading   height   not   exceeding  
4

0   cm:   80 kg.
This

s

peed   of   the   vehicle   to   the   profile   of   the

Please
  refer   to   national   legislation   so   as  
t

o   meet   the   requirements   on   carrying  
o

bjects   that   are   longer   than   the   vehicle.
Recommendations
F Distribute  the   load   evenly,   avoiding  ov
erloading   on   one   side.
F
 
A
rrange   the   heaviest   part   of   the   load   as  
c

lose   as   possible   to   the   roof.
F
 
A
nchor   the   load   securely   and   fit   a   warning  
f

lag   if   part   of   it   overhangs   the   vehicle.
F
 
D
