Cause



Action / Observations






Low fuel
level


fi xed. When it fi rst comes on there
remains approximately
5 litres of
fuel
in the tank. You must refuel as soon as possible to
avoid running out of fuel.
This warning lamp wil come on every time
the ignition is switched on, until a suffi cient
addition of fuel is made.
Fuel tank capacity: 71 litres.
Never continue to drive until you run out
of fuel, this could damage the emission
control and injection systems.




Maximum
coolant
temperature


fi xed red. The temperature of the
cooling system is too high. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Wait until the engine has cooled down
before topping up the level, if necessary.
If the problem persists, contact a
CITROËN dealer or qualifi ed workshop.




Battery
charge


fi xed. The battery charging circuit
has a fault (dirty or loose
terminals, slack or cut
alternator belt, ...). The warning lamp should go off when
the engine is started.
If it does not go off, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

COMFORT

Air conditioning

We recommend use of the automatic
regulation of the air conditioning.
It permits automatic and optimised
control of all of the following func-
tions: air fl ow, temperature in the
passenger compartment and air
distribution, by means of various
sensors (ambient temperature, sun-
shine). This eliminates any need for
you to change your settings other
than the temperature value dis-
played.


)
Take care not to cover the sun-
shine sensor A
.
If you select the automatic mode
(by pressing the "AUTO" control)
and leave all of the vents open, opti-
mum comfort will be maintained and
humidity and condensation will be
removed regardless of the exterior
climatic conditions.
The temperature in the passenger
compartment can only be lower than
the ambient temperature if the air
conditioning is on.
HEATING, VENTILATION
AND AIR CONDITIONING
RECOMMENDATIONS In order to be effective, the air con-
ditioning must be used with the win-
dows closed. If the vehicle has been
parked in the sun for a long period
and the interior temperature is very
high, fi rst ventilate the passenger
compartment with the windows
open for a few minutes, then close
the windows.
To keep the air conditioning system
in good working order it is essential
that it is operated at least once a
month.
The air conditioning uses engine pow-
er during its operation. As a result,
the fuel consumption of the vehicle
increases.
In certain cases of particularly ardu-
ous use (e.g. towing the maximum
load on a steep gradient in high tem-
peratures), switching off the air con-
ditioning saves engine power and
improves the towing capacity.


Air inlet

Check that the exterior grille for the
air inlet, at the bottom of the wind-
screen, is clean and free of dead
leaves, snow, etc.
When washing the vehicle using a
high pressure nozzle, avoid spray-
ing at the air inlet.


Air circulation

Maximum comfort is obtained by
means of a good distribution of air in
the passenger compartment, both in
the front and in the rear.
To obtain a uniform distribution of
air, take care not to block the ex-
terior air intake grille located at the
base of the windscreen, the vents,
the air outlets under the front seats
and the air extractor located behind
the fl aps in the boot.
The front and rear vents are fi tted
with thumbwheels to adjust the air
fl ow and direction. We recommend
that you leave all of the vents open.


Dust filter / Odour filter
(active carbon)
There is a fi lter for excluding odours
and dust.
This fi lter must be changed in line
with the vehicle's servicing schedule
(see the vehicle's servicing booklet).

.



Low fuel level

When the minimum level
in the tank is reached, this
warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message on the multifunction
screen. When it fi rst comes on, there
remains around 5 litres of fuel in the
tank.
You must refuel to avoid running out
of fuel.


)
Press at the top left corner, then
pull open from the left.


)
turn the key a quarter turn to lock
and unlock the fi ller cap,

)
when refuelling, place the cap on
hook A
,

)
fi ll the tank, but do not persist
after the third cut-off
; this could
cause your vehicle to malfunc-
tion.


While you are refuelling, the engine must be stopped and the ignition
switched off.


For a petrol engine with a cata-
lytic converter, unleaded fuel is
compulsory.



Opening the fuel flap

Additions of fuel must be of at least
5 litres to be taken into account by
the fuel gauge.
The fi ller neck is narrower to ensure
that only unleaded petrol nozzles
can be put in.
Opening the fi ller cap may create
a noise of an inrush of air. This
vacuum, which is entirely normal,
is caused by the sealing of the fuel
system.


Refuelling








With Stop & Start, never re-
fuel with the system in STOP
mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key.

ACCESS










Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines

The petrol engines are perfectly
compatible with E10 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10% ethanol),
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
compatible with biofuels which con-
form to current and future European
standards (Diesel fuel which com-
plies with standard 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 cer-
tain Diesel engines; however, this
use is subject to strict application
of the special servicing 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 di-
luted, domestic fuel...) is strictly pro-
hibited (risk of damage to the engine
and fuel system).

MISFUEL PREVENTION (DIESEL)
*

Mechanical device which prevents
fi lling the tank of a Diesel vehicle
with petrol. It avoids the risk of en-
gine damage that can result from fi ll-
ing 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 intro-
duced 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 de-
vice 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 prevention
device may make refuelling impos-
sible.
Before travelling abroad, we rec-
ommend 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.
