Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check  that  the  terminals Â
a
re  clean  and  correctly  tightened, Â
p
articularly  in  summer  and  winter.Refer
 to  the  manufacturer's  s
ervice schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine  oil  is  changed.
Refer
 to  the  manufacturer's Â
s
ervice schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
Oil filterThe presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specific 12 V lead-acid
battery
 with  special  technology  and
 s
pecification.
 T
he involvement of a CITROËN dealer
or
 a  qualified  workshop  is  essential  when
 r
eplacing  or  disconnecting  the  battery.
Unless
 other wise  indicated,  check  these  components  in  accordance  with  the  manufacturer's  service  schedule  and  according  to  your  engine.
Other wise,  have  them  checked  by  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified  workshop.
Depending  on  the  environment  (e.g.  dusty Â
a
tmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city  driving),  replace them twice as often
if necessary .
A  clogged  passenger  compartment  filter  may Â
h
ave an adverse effect on the per formance
of  the  air  conditioning  system  and  generate  u
ndesirable o dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter
 is  indicated  by  the  fixed Â
i
llumination  of  this  warning  lamp Â
a
ccompanied  by  a  warning  message.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate
 the  filter  by  driving  at  a Â
s
peed  of  at  least  40  mph  (60  km/h)  until Â
t
he
Â
warning  lamp  goes  off.
If
Â
the  warning  lamp  stays  on,  this Â
i
ndicates  a  low  additive  level.
For more information on Checking
levels and the Diesel additive level in
particular,
 refer  to  the  corresponding Â
s
ection.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter
 regeneration  operations  may  be Â
a
ccompanied  by  a  "burning"  smell, Â
w
hich  is  per fectly  normal.
Following
 prolonged  operation  of  the Â
v
ehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you
 may,  in  exceptional  circumstances, Â
n
otice the emission of water vapour at
the
Â
exhaust  on  acceleration.  This  does Â
n
ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
Â
the  environment.
When
Â
carrying
Â
out
Â
work
Â
on
Â
the
Â
battery,
Â
refer
Â
t
o the " 12 V batter y " section for details of the
precautions
Â
to
Â
be
Â
taken
Â
before
Â
disconnecting
Â
t
he
Â
battery
Â
and
Â
following
Â
its
Â
reconnection.

AdBlue® additive and SCR system
for
Â
BlueHDi  Diesel  engines
To assure respect for the environment and
conformity with the new Euro 6 emissions
standard,
 without  adversely  affecting  the Â
p
er formance or fuel consumption of Diesel
engines,
 CITROËN  has  taken  the  decision  to Â
e
quip its vehicles with an effective system that
associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction)
with a particle filter (FAP) for the treatment of
exhaust
 gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using a fluid called AdBlue® containing urea, a c
atalytic
Â
converter
Â
turns
Â
up
Â
to  85%  of  nitrogen Â
o
xides
Â
(NOx)
Â
into
Â
nitrogen
Â
and  water,  which  are Â
h
armless
Â
to
Â
health
Â
and
Â
the
Â
environment. The AdBlue
® additive is held in a special
tank
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 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. Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a s
ystem
Â
required
 by  regulations Â
p
revents
Â
starting
Â
of  the  engine.
If the SCR
is faulty, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no
longer
Â
meet
Â
the
Â
Euro  6  standard:  you Â
v
ehicle
Â
becomes
Â
polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault
with
Â
the
Â
SCR
Â
system,  you  must  go Â
t
o a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
Â
as
Â
soon  as  possible:  after Â
a
Â
running
Â
distance  of  650  miles Â
(
1Â 100
Â
km),
Â
a
Â
system  will  be  triggered Â
a
utomatically
Â
to
Â
prevent  engine  starting.
