Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly com-
patible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % etha-
nol), conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles 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 dilut-
ed, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
system).
The petrol or Diesel engine of your vehicle
is fi tted with a catalytic converter, a device
which helps to reduce the level of harmful
emissions in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, the use of unleaded
fuel is compulsory.
The fi ller neck is narrower, admitting un-
leaded petrol nozzles only.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is equipped with a safety
device which cuts off the fuel supply in
the event of a collision.

MISFUEL PREVENTION
(DIESEL) *
Mechanical device which prevents fi ll-
ing the tank of a Diesel vehicle with
petrol. It avoids the risk of engine dam-
age 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.
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 system 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 prevention
device and pour slowly.
* According to country of sale.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may
be different in other countries,
the presence of the misfuel pre-
vention device may make refuel-
ling 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.

230 V/50 HZ POWER SOCKET
A 230 V/50 Hz socket (maximum power:
120 W) is fi tted to the centre console.
To use the socket:
lift the front armrest cover for ac-
cess to its compartment,
check that the warning lamp is on
green,
connect your multimedia or other
electrical device (telephone char-
ger, laptop computer, CD-DVD play-
er, baby food warmer...).
This socket works with the engine
running, as well as in STOP mode on
Stop & Start.
To connect a 12 V accessory (max
power: 120 W), lift the cover and
connect a suitable adaptor.
12 V ACCESSORY SOCKET
Connect only one device at a
time to the socket (no extension
or multi-way connector).
Connect only devices with class
II insulation (shown on the de-
vice).
As a safety measure, when elec-
trical consumption is high and
when required by the vehicle's
electrical system (particular
weather conditions, electrical
overload...), the current supply
to the socket will be cut off; the
green warning lamp goes off.
In the event of a fault with the socket,
the green warning lamp fl ashes.

TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS (ESP)
Anti-slip regulation (ASR) and
electronic stability control (ESC)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as
traction control) optimises traction to pre-
vent skidding of the wheels, by acting on
the brakes of the driving wheels and on
the engine.
The electronic stability control acts on
the brake of one or more wheels and
on the engine to keep the vehicle on the
trajectory required by the driver, within
the limits of the laws of physics.
Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
They come into operation in the event
of a grip or trajectory problem.
This is indicated by fl ashing of
this warning lamp in the instru-
ment panel.
Intelligent traction control
system ("Snow motion")
Your vehicle has a system to help driving
on snow: intelligent traction control.
This system detects situations of diffi -
cult surface adhesion that could make it
diffi cult to move off or make progress on
deep fresh snow or compacted snow.
In these situations, the intelligent trac-
tion control
limits the amount of wheel
slip to provide the best traction and tra-
jectory control for your vehicle.
In extremely severe conditions (deep
snow, mud, ...), when it proves impos-
sible to move off, it may be useful to
temporarily deactivate the ESP/ASR
systems to allow the wheels to spin
freely and so allow movement of the
vehicle.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a
vehicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground...), if you are un-
able to make progress, it may be ad-
visable to temporarily deactivate these
systems, so that the wheels can spin
freely and allow the vehicle to move.
Press the "ESP OFF"
button, locat-
ed near the steering wheel.
If the indicator lamp in the button comes
on, this indicates that these systems
are deactivated.
The use of snow tyres is strongly
recommended on surfaces of-
fering low levels of adhesion.
It is recommended that the systems be
reactivated as soon as possible.

ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE
The electric parking brake combines
2 operational modes:
- Automatic Application/Release
Application is automatic when the
engine stops, release is automatic
on use of the accelerator (activated
by default),
- Manual Application/Release
The parking brake can be applied /
released manually by pulling control
lever A
.
If this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel, the au-
tomatic mode is deactivated.
Programming the mode
Depending on the country of sale of the
vehicle, the automatic application when
the engine is switched off and the auto-
matic release when you press the ac-
celerator can be deactivated.
It is recommended that you do
not apply the parking brake in
very cold conditions (ice) and
during towing (breakdown, cara-
van...). Deactivate the automatic
functions and release the park-
ing brake manually.
Manual application
With the vehicle stationary, to apply the
parking brake whether the engine is
running or off, pull
control lever A
.
The application of the parking brake is
confi rmed by:
- illumination of the braking warn-
ing lamp and of the P
warning
lamp in the control lever A
,
- display of the message
"Parking brake on".
Before leaving the vehicle, en-
sure that parking brake warning
lamp in the instrument panel is
on fi xed, not fl ashing.
When the driver’s door is opened with
the engine running, a message is dis-
played accompanied by an audible sig-
nal if the parking brake has not been
applied. Activation / deactivation is done
using the vehicle confi guration
menu; refer to the section cov-
ering the confi guration of your
vehicle's systems.
The parking brake is then applied and
released manually. When the driver's
door is opened, there is an audible sig-
nal and a message is displayed if the
brake is not applied.
Do not place any object (packet
of cigarettes, telephone...) be-
tween the gear lever and the
electric parking brake control
lever.
