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, etc.). Preferably, use a 
roof box.
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:
- 
b
 efore a long journey,
-
 
a
 t each change of season,
-
 
a
 fter a long period out of use.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on 
any trailer or caravan. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine 
oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin filter, etc.) and 
obser ve the schedule of operations in the 
manufacturer's service schedule.
When filling the tank, do not continue after the 
3rd
 cut-off of the nozzle to avoid over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only 
after the first 1,900
  miles (3,000   kilometres) 
that you will see the fuel consumption settle 
down to a consistent average. With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR 
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes 
polluting. As soon as possible, visit a 
CITROËN dealer  or a qualified workshop to 
make your vehicle’s level of nitrogen oxide 
emissions compliant to the standard.

information on the warning lamp concerned.
Associated warnings
Certain warning lamps may come on in one of 
two modes: fixed (continuous) or flashing.
Only by relating the type of lighting to the 
operating status of the vehicle can it be 
ascertained whether the situation is normal or 
whether a fault has occurred.
In the event of a fault, the illumination of the 
warning lamp may be accompanied by an 
audible signal and/or a message.
Warning lamps
When the engine is running or the vehicle is 
being driven, illumination of one of the following 
warning lamps indicates a fault which requires

Any fault resulting in the illumination of a 
warning lamp must be investigated further 
using the associated message.
If you encounter any problems, contact a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Visual identifiers informing the driver that 
a system is in operation, switched off (on/
