Safety
5protection of personal information established
by Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR) and
Directive 2002/58/EC of the European
Parliament and the Council, and in particular,
seeks to protect the vital interests of the
data subject, in accordance with Article 6.1,
paragraph
d) of Regulation 2016/679.
Personal information processing is strictly
limited to the management of the "Localised
Emergency Call" system used with the “112”
European single emergency call number.
The "Localised Emergency Call" system is
able to collect and process only the following
data relating to the vehicle: chassis number,
type (passenger vehicle or light commercial
vehicle), fuel type or power source, most
recent three locations and direction of travel,
and a timestamped log file recording the
automatic activation of the system.
The recipients of the processed data are the
emergency call handling centres designated
by the relevant national authorities in the
territory in which they are located, enabling
priority reception and handling of calls to the
“112” emergency number.
Data storage
Data contained in the system’s memory
is not accessible from outside the system until
* According to the geographic coverage of ‘Localised Emergency Call’, ‘Localised Assistance Call’ and the official national language chosen by the owner
of the vehicle.
The list of countries covered and telematic services provided is availab\
le from dealers or on the website for your country
.
a call is made. The system is not traceable
and is not continuously monitored in its

Safety
5Standard (ESC)
This mode is calibrated for a low level of wheel spin, based on the different levels
of grip normally encountered on the road.
Whenever the ignition is switched off, the
system automatically resets to this mode.
Snow
This mode adapts its strategy to the conditions of grip encountered for each of
the two front wheels on moving off.
(mode active up to 50 mph (80
km/h))
All terrain (mud, damp grass, etc.)
This mode, when moving off, allows considerable spin on the wheel with the
least grip to optimise clearing of the mud and to
regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with the
most grip is controlled in such a way as to
transmit as much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises wheel spin
to respond to the driver's requirements as fully
as possible.
(mode active up to 31 mph (50
km/h))
Sand
This mode allows little spin on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow
the vehicle to move forward and limit the risks of
getting stuck in the sand.
(mode active up to 75 mph (120
km/h))
Do not use the other modes on sand as
the vehicle may become stuck.
You can deactivate the ASR and DSC systems by turning the knob to the "OFF"
position.
The ASR and DSC systems will no longer act on the operation of the engine
or of the brakes in the event of a change of
trajectory.
These systems are reactivated automatically
from 31 mph (50
km/h) and whenever the
ignition is switched on.
Recommendations
The vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads, but it allows you to
occasionally drive on other less passable
terrain.
However, it does not permit off-road driving
such as:
–

driving on terrain which could damage the
underbody or strip away components (fuel
pipe, fuel cooler

, etc.) due to obstacles or
stones in particular,
–

driving on terrain with steep gradients and
poor grip,
–


crossing a waterway
.
Hill Assist Descent
Control
System that provides assistance when
descending on loose or soft surfaces (gravel,
mud, etc.) or a steep gradient.
This system reduces the risk of slip or loss of
control of the vehicle when descending, whether
going forward or in reverse.
During a descent, it assists the driver in
maintaining a constant speed, depending on the
gear engaged, while progressively releasing the
brakes.
For the system to activate, the slope
must be greater than 5 %.
The system can be used with the gearbox in
neutral.
Otherwise engage a gear corresponding to
the speed to prevent the engine stalling.
With an automatic gearbox, the system can
be used with the selector at N, D or R.
When the system is regulating, the Active
Safety Brake system is automatically
deactivated.
The system is not available: – if the speed of the vehicle is above 43
mph (70
km/h),
–

if the speed of the vehicle is being
controlled by the

Adaptive Cruise Control,
depending on the type of gearbox.

111
Driving
6partially recharge the traction battery, without
affecting the charge level indicator.
Progressive Hydraulic
Cushions
This suspension system with progressive hydraulic cushions improves driving comfort by
filtering out the imperfections and demands of
the road surface.
Each shock absorber is equipped with a
hydraulic compression stop (at the base) and a
hydraulic rebound stop (at the top).
Depending on the intensity of the shock to be
absorbed, these stops provide the vehicle with a
greater freedom of movement or gradually slow
down the amount of movement in order to avoid
any sudden jolts at the end of travel.
Unlike conventional suspension which absorbs
the energy but then partially returns some of it,
this active suspension absorbs and dissipates
this energy, without producing any rebound.
Driving modes
The number and type of driving modes available depend on the vehicle’s engine and equipment.
Driving modes are selected using one of the
following controls, depending on version:




1. Pressing the control activates Eco mode. The
indicator lamp comes on.
2. Pressing the control activates Sport mode.
The indicator lamp comes on.
3. Pressing the control displays the modes on
the instrument panel.
The selected mode is activated immediately.
With petrol / Diesel engines
Each time the ignition is switched on, Normal
mode is selected by default.
Eco
Reduces energy consumption by restricting the
performance of the heating and air conditioning
systems, although it does not deactivate them.
Normal
Restores the vehicle’s original settings.
Sport
Enables more dynamic driving with action on the
power steering, accelerator and gear changes
(with an automatic gearbox).
Depending on version, with an EAT8
gearbox and the selector in position D
(except Sport mode), fully releasing the
accelerator pedal allows free-wheeling which
can save fuel.
A drop in engine speed is normal (rev counter
at idle, drop in engine noise).
With rechargeable hybrid
engine
Each time the ignition is switched on, Electric
mode is selected by default.
Electric
Allows driving using 100% electrical energy.
The maximum speed is approximately 84 mph
(135
km/h).
When starting the vehicle, if the conditions do
not allow the activation or retention of Electric
mode, the message "Electric mode currently
unavailable" is displayed on the instrument
panel. The vehicle automatically changes to
Hybrid mode.
If a blue LED comes on under the interior rear
view mirror, visible from outside the vehicle, this
confirms that you are driving in Electric mode.

Practical information
Compatibility of fuels
Petrol fuels conforming to the EN228 standard
containing up to 5% and 10% ethanol
respectively.

Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734
and EN16709 standards and containing up to
7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester
respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even
occasionally, imposes special maintenance
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".

Paraffinic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940
standard.
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel, etc.) is strictly prohibited (risk
of damage to the engine and fuel system).
The only fuel additives authorised for use are those that meet the B715001 (petrol)
or B715000 (Diesel) standards.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0 °C (+32 °F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel fuels could prevent the engine from operating
correctly
. In these temperature conditions, use
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank
more than 50 % full.
At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid
problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle
under shelter (heated garage).
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s
engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
Refuelling
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 53 litres
(Petrol or Diesel) or 43 litres (Rechargeable
hybrid).
Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.
Low fuel level
/2
1 1When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp lights up on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the display of
a message and an audible signal. When it first
comes on, about 6 litres of fuel remain.
Until sufficient fuel is added, this warning lamp
appears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by an onscreen message and
an audible signal. When driving, this message
and audible signal are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards 0.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel), refer to the corresponding section.
A small arrow by the warning lamp indicates which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler flap is located on.
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refuelling
Any addition of fuel must be in quantities of at
least 10 litres, in order to be registered by the
fuel gauge.
Opening the filler flap may create a noise caused
by an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely
normal, resulting from the sealing of the fuel
system.
The filler cap is built into the filler
flap or must be
unscrewed (depending on version).
To refuel in complete safety:
►

Y
ou must switch off the engine.

► To open the filler flap, press the flap opening
button or, with the vehicle unlocked, press
the upper rear corner of the filler flap facing
the ejector or the tactile marker, if present
(depending on version).
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
After pressing the button, it may take a
few minutes for the filler flap to open.
If the flap becomes stuck, press and hold the
button for more than 3
seconds.
►

T

ake care to select the pump that delivers the
correct fuel type for the vehicle's engine (see a
reminder label on the inside of the filler flap).
► Turn the filler cap to the left, remove it
and place it on its support on the filler flap
(depending on version).
►

Insert the filler nozzle and push it in as far as
possible before starting to refuel (to minimise the
risk of splashing).
►


Fill the tank.
Do not continue past the 3rd cut-off of the
nozzle; as this may cause malfunctions.
►

Put the filler cap back in place and turn it to
the right (depending on version).
►


Push the filler flap to close it.
The vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter

,
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 inserted.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
the vehicle, you must have the fuel
tank drained and filled with the correct fuel
before starting the engine.
Rechargeable hybrid vehicles
If the filler flap is accidentally closed
before refuelling, it cannot be opened
manually. Restart the engine and move the
vehicle a few metres before pressing the
filler
flap opening button again.
Misfuel prevention (Diesel)
(Depending on country of sale.)
This mechanical device prevents filling the tank
of a Diesel vehicle with petrol.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention
device is visible when the filler cap is removed.
Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is inserted into the
fuel filler neck of a Diesel vehicle, it comes into
contact with the flap. The system remains closed
and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.
It remains possible to use a fuel jerrycan
to fill the tank.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, it is advisable to
check with a CITROËN dealer if the vehicle is
suitable for the distribution equipment of the
countries visited.

174
Practical information
► With an AdBlue® pump: insert the nozzle and
fill the tank until the nozzle automatically cuts
out.
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:
– Add between 10 and 13 litres using
AdBlue
® containers.
– Stop after the nozzle’s first automatic cut-
out, if you are refilling at a service station.
The system only registers AdBlue
® top-ups of
5 litres or more.
If the AdBlue® tank is completely empty
– which is confirmed by the message
"Top up AdBlue: Starting impossible" – it is
essential to add at least 5 litres.
Free-wheeling
In certain situations, you must allow the vehicle
to free-wheel (while being towed, on a rolling
road, in an automatic car wash, or being
transported by rail or sea freight, etc.).
The procedure varies according to the type of
gearbox and parking brake.
With manual or EAT6
automatic gearbox and
electric parking brake
/
For the correct operation of the SCR
system:
–

Use
only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the ISO
22241 standard.
–

Never

transfer AdBlue
® to another container
as it would lose its purity.
–

Never

dilute AdBlue
® with water.
You can obtain AdBlue
® from a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop, as well as service
stations equipped with AdBlue
® pumps specially
designed for passenger vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates
above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a
cool area and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for
at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has
completely thawed out at room temperature.
Never store AdBlue® containers in your
vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This fluid is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (when
kept in a cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the
affected area with soap and running water. In the
event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse
the eyes with large amounts of water or with an
eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek
medical attention if you feel a persistent burning
sensation or irritation.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high temperature, for
example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot
be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia
vapours have an irritant effect on mucous
membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Store AdBlue® out of the reach of
children, in its original container.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that
the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature
of the vehicle is above -11
°C. Otherwise, the
AdBlue
® may be frozen and therefore cannot
be poured into its tank. Park your vehicle in a
warmer area for a few hours to allow the top-up
to be carried out.
Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
If any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the bodywork, rinse
immediately with cold water or wipe with a
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a
sponge and hot water.
Important: in the event of a top-up after
a breakdown because of a lack of
AdBlue, it is essential to wait around 5
minutes before switching on the ignition,
without opening the driver’s door,
unlocking the vehicle, introducing the key
into the ignition switch, or introducing the
key of the “Keyless Entry and Starting

”
system into the passenger compartment

.
Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10
seconds before starting the engine.
►

Switch off the ignition and remove the key
from the switch to switch off the engine.
or
►


With Keyless Entry and Starting, press the
"

START/STOP" button to switch off the engine.


► Turn the blue cap of the AdBlue® tank anti-
clockwise and remove it.
►

With a container of

AdBlue
®: after checking
the expiry date, read the instructions on the
label carefully before pouring the contents of the
container into the vehicle's AdBlue tank.
