For Diesel vehicles , in sub-zero temperatures
the engine will not start until the pre-heater
warning lamp has gone off. If one of the starting conditions is not met,
a reminder message is displayed in the
instrument panel. In some circumstances, it is
necessary to turn the steering wheel slightly
while pressing the "START/STOP" button to
assist unlocking of the steering; a message
warns you when this is needed.
With petrol engines , after a
cold start,
preheating the catalytic converter can
cause noticeable engine vibrations for
anything up to 2
minutes while stationary
with the engine running (accelerated idle
speed).
If this warning lamp comes on after
pressing the "START/STOP" button,

Fuel
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 57 litres
(petrol) or 55 litres (Diesel).
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp in the instrument
panel comes on, accompanied by
an audible warning, a message and
the last bar of the fuel gauge lights
up orange.
When it first comes on there remains
approximately 6
litres of fuel in the tank.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the ignition
is switched on, accompanied by an audible
warning and a
message. This audible warning
and this message are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards " 0".
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out.
Refilling
A self-adhesive label on the inner face of the
filler flap reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5
litres, in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge. To refuel in complete safety:
F
Y
ou must switch off the engine.
F
W
ith the vehicle unlocked, press the rear
edge of the flap to open it (the filler cap is
a part of it).
F T ake care to select the pump that delivers
the correct type of fuel for your vehicle.
F
I
nsert the nozzle so as to push in the metal
non-return flap.
F
M
ake sure that the nozzle is pushed in as
far as possible before starting to refuel (risk
of blowback). If you are filling your tank to the top, do not
continue after the 3
rd cut- off of the nozzle;
this could cause malfunctions.
Your vehicle is fitted with a
catalytic converter,
a device which helps to reduce the level of
harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, you must use unleaded
fuel.
The filler neck is narrower, allowing only
unleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.
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 cut- of f
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
c uts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
Opening the filler flap may create a
noise
caused by an inrush of air. This is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of the fuel
system. F
H
old it in this position throughout the filling
operation.
F
P
ush the filler flap to close it.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
engine in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the "START/STOP"
button.

Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, CITROËN selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi engines)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the per formance or fuel
consumption of Diesel engines, CITROËN
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a
system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a
Diesel particle filter
(DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a fluid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85%
of nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® is contained in
a
special tank holding about
17
litres.
Its capacity allows a
driving range of around
12,500
miles (20,000
km). An alert system is
triggered automatically once the reser ve level
is reached: you can then drive for a
further
1,500
miles (2,400
km) before the tank is
e m pt y. Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a system
required by regulations prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR system is defective, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no longer
meet the Euro 6
standard: your vehicle
becomes polluting.
In the event of a
confirmed fault with the
SCR system, you must go to a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon
as possible: after a
running distance of
685
miles (1,100
km), a system will be
triggered automatically to prevent engine
starting.
In either case, a range indicator gives you
the distance you can travel before the
vehicle is immobilised.
For more information on the Warning and
indicator lamps and associated alerts,
refer to the corresponding section.
Freezing of the AdBlue
®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a
heater for the
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue
driving in very cold conditions.
