Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom  of  the  boot,  as  close  as  possible  to  the  rear  seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof
bars,
 roof  rack,  bicycle  carrier,  trailer...).  Use  a  roof  box  in  preference.
Remove
 roof  bars  and  roof  racks  after  use.
At
 the  end  of  winter,  remove  snow  tyres  and  refit  your  summer  tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the  door  aperture,  driver's  side.
Carry
 out  this  check  in  particular:
-
Â
b
efore  a  long  journey,
-
Â
a
t  each  change  of  season,
-
Â
a
fter  a  long  period  out  of  use.
Don't
 forget  the  spare  wheel  and  the  tyres  on  any  trailer  or  caravan.
Have
 your  vehicle  serviced  regularly  (engine  oil,  oil  filter,  air  filter, Â
p
assenger  compartment  filter...)  and  observe  the  schedule  of Â
o
perations  recommended  in  the  manufacturer's  service  schedule.
With
 a  BlueHDi  Diesel  engine,  if  the  SCR  system  is  faulty  your  vehicle Â
b
ecomes  polluting;  go  to  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified  workshop Â
w
ithout  delay  to  have  the  emissions  of  nitrous  oxides  brought  back  to Â
t
he  legal  level.
When
 refuelling,  do  not  continue  after  the  third  cut-off  of  the  nozzle  to Â
a
void  any  over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles
(3Â 000
 kilometres)  that  you  will  see  the  fuel  consumption  settle  down  to Â
a
 consistent  average.

Service indicator
System which informs the driver when the
next service  is  due,  in  accordance  with  the Â
ma
nufacturer's
 ser
vice
 s
chedule.
The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last indicator zero reset,
according
 to  the  mileage  covered  and  the  time Â
e
lapsed  since  the  last  service.
For
 BlueHDi  Diesel  versions,  depending  on  the Â
c
ountry  of  sale,  the  degree  of  deterioration  of Â
t
he  engine  oil  may  also  be  taken  into  account.
More than 1 800 miles (3 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
When the ignition is switched on, no service information  appears  in  the  screen.
Less than 600 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
Example: 560  miles  (900  km)  remain  before  t
he  next  service  is  due.
For
 5  seconds  after  the  ignition  is  switched  on, Â
t
he  screen  indicates:
Between 600 miles (1 000 km)
and 1 800 miles (3 000 km) remain
before the next service is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner s ymbolising t he ser vice o perations c omes o
n.  The  distance  recorder  display  line  indicates  the
 d
istance  remaining  before  the  next  service  is  due.
Example:
Â
1  700  miles  (2  800  km)  remain  before
 t
he  next  service  is  due.
For
 5  seconds  after  the  ignition  is  switched  on,  the
 s
creen  indicates:
5
 seconds  after  the  ignition  is  switched  on, Â
t
he spanner goes off ;
 the  distance  recorder Â
r
esumes  its  normal  operation.  The  screen  then Â
i
ndicates  the  total  and  trip  distances.5
 seconds  after  the  ignition  is  switched  on, Â
t
he distance recorder resumes its normal
operation.
 T
he spanner remains on to
indicate that a service must be carried out
soon.

Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on, the spanner flashes to indicate that
the service must be carried out as soon as
possible.
Example: the service is overdue by 180 miles
(300
 km).
For
 5  seconds  after  the  ignition  is  switched  on, Â
t
he  screen  indicates: Therefore, the spanner may come on
if
 you  have  exceeded  the  period  since  t
he last service, as indicated in the
manufacturer's
 ser
vice
 s
chedule.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
spanner may also come on early,
according
 to  the  level  of  deterioration Â
o
f  the  engine  oil,  which  depends  on  the Â
d
riving  conditions  in  which  the  vehicle Â
i
s  used.
5
 seconds  after  the  ignition  is  switched  on, Â
t

 T
he spanner remains on .
With BlueHDi Diesel versions, the Service
warning
 lamp  also  comes  on  when  the  ignition Â
i
s  switched  on.

Engine oil level indicator*
On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the  state  of  the  engine  oil  level  is Â
d
isplayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds,
 after  the  servicing  information.
The level read will only be correct if
the
 vehicle  is  on  level  ground  and  the Â
e
ngine  has  been  off  for  more  than Â
3
0Â minutes.
Oil level correct
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by the display of the message "Oil level incorrect" in the instrument panel
screen,
 accompanied  by  the  service  warning Â
l
amp  and  an  audible  signal.
If
 the  low  oil  level  is  confirmed  by  a  check  using Â
t
he  dipstick,  the  level  must  be  topped  up  to Â
a
void  damage  to  the  engine.
For more information on Checking levels,
refer
 to  the  corresponding  section.
Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by the display of the message "Oil level measurement invalid" in the
instrument
 pan
el.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of a fault with the electric indicator,
the
 oil  level  is  no  longer  monitored.
If
 the  system  is  faulty,  you  must  check  the Â
e
ngine  oil  level  using  the  manual  dipstick Â
l
ocated  under  the  bonnet.
For more information on Checking levels,
refer
 to  the  corresponding  section.

or  the  use  of  this  type  of  fuel  (BioFlex Â
v
ehicles).  The  quality  of  the  ethanol  must Â

Fuel used for Diesel
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with biofuels available at the pumps which meet
current
 and  future  European  standards:
-
D
iesel fuel that meets standard EN 590
mixed
 with  a  biofuel  that  meets  standard Â
E
N 14214,
-
Â
D
iesel  fuel  that  meets  standard  EN16734 Â
m
ixed  with  a  biofuel  that  meets  standard Â
E
N14214  (possibly  containing  up  to  10  % Â
F
atty Acid Methyl Ester),
-
P
araffinic Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN15940
 mixed  with  a  biofuel  that  meets Â
s
tandard  EN14214  (possibly  containing  up Â
t
o  7  %  Fatty  Acid  Methyl  Ester).The
 use  of  B20  or  B30  fuel  meeting  standard  E
N16709  is  possible  in  your  Diesel  engines. Â
H
owever, this use, even occasional, requires
strict
 application  of  the  special  servicing Â
c
onditions  referred  to  as  "Arduous  conditions". Â
F
or more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer
 or  a  qualified  workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable
 or  animal  oils,  pure  or  diluted, Â
d
omestic  fuel...)  is  strictly  prohibited  (risk  of Â
d
amage  to  the  engine  and  fuel  system).
Only the use of Diesel fuel additives that meet
the
 standard  B715000  is  authorised.

Checking levels
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start at any  time  (even  with  the  ignition  off).
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when the  ignition  is  switched  on  using  the Â
o
il level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles so equipped, or
using
 the  dipstick.Checking using the dipstick
The location of the dipstick is shown in the corresponding  underbonnet  layout  view.
F
Â
T
ake  the  dipstick  by  its  coloured  grip  and Â
r
emove  it  completely.
F
Â
W
ipe  the  end  of  the  dipstick  using  a  clean Â

F
Â
R
efit  the  dipstick  and  push  fully  down,  then Â
p
ull  it  out  again  to  make  the  visual  check: Â
t
he  correct  level  is  between  the  marks  A
and B .
It is normal to top-up the oil level between
two
Â
services
Â
(or
Â
oil
Â
changes).
Â
CITROËN
Â
r
ecommends
Â
that
Â
you
Â
check
Â
the
Â
level,
Â
and
Â
top-
up
Â
if
Â
necessary,
Â
every
Â
3
Â
000
Â
miles
Â
(5
Â
000
Â
kms).
Check
Â
all
Â
of
Â
these
Â
levels
Â
regularly,
Â
in
Â
line
Â
with
Â
the
Â
manufacturer's  service  schedule.  Top  them  up  if  necessary,  unless  other wise  indicated.
If
Â
a
Â
level
Â
drops
Â
significantly,
Â
have
Â
the
Â
corresponding  system  checked  by  a  CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified  workshop.
To
Â
ensure
Â
that
Â
the
Â
reading
Â
is
Â
correct,

y
our
