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  
b

ars,   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:
-
 
b
efore   a   long   journey,
-
 
a
t   each   change   of   season,
-
 
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,  
p

assenger   compartment   filter...)   and   observe   the   schedule   of  
o

perations   recommended   in   the   maintenance   and   warranty   guide.
With
  a   Blue   HDi   Diesel   engine,   if   the   SCR   system   is   faulty   your   vehicle  
b

ecomes   polluting;   go   to   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop  
w

ithout   delay   to   have   the   emissions   of   nitrous   oxides   brought   back   to  
t

he   legal   level.
When
  refuelling,   do   not   continue   after   the   third   cut-off   of   the   nozzle   to  
a

void   any   over flow.
At
  the   wheel   of   your   new   vehicle,   it   is   only   after   the   first   1   800   miles  
(3
  000   kilometres)   that   you   will   see   the   fuel   consumption   settle   down   to  
a

  consistent   average.

Practical information

AdBlue® additive and SCR system
f
or
 
Blue
  HDi   Diesel   engines
To assure respect for the environment and c
onformity   with   the   new   Euro   6   emissions  
s

tandard,   without   adversely   affecting   the  
p

er formance   or   fuel   consumption   of   Diesel  
e

ngines,   CITROËN   has   taken   the   decision   to  
e

quip   its   vehicles   with   an   effective   system   that  
a

ssociates   SCR   (Selective   Catalytic   Reduction)  
w

ith   a   particle   filter   (FAP)   for   the   treatment   of  
e

xhaust   gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using an additive called AdBlue® containing u
rea, a catalytic converter turns up to
85% of
 
nitrous
 
oxides
 
(NOx)
 
into
  nitrogen  
a

nd
 
water,
 
which
 
are
 
harmless
 
to   health   and  
t

he environment. The
  AdBlue
® additive is held in a special t
ank
 
located
  under   the   boot   at   the   rear   of  
t

he
 
vehicle.
 
It   has   a   capacity   of   17   litres:   this  
p

rovides
 
a
 
driving   range   of   about   12   500   miles  
(

20
 
000
 
km),
  after   which   an   alert   is   triggered  
w

arning
 
you
 
when   the   reserve   remaining   is  
e

nough
 
for
 
just   1   500   miles   (2   400   km).
During
 
each
  scheduled   service   of   your   vehicle  
b

y
 
a
 
CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop,  
t

he
 
AdBlue
® additive tank is refilled in order to a
llow
 
normal   operation   of   the   SCR   system.
If
 
the
 
estimated   mileage   between   two   services  
i

s
 
greater
 
than   12   500   miles   (20   000   km),   we  
r

ecommend
  that   you   go   to   a   CITROËN   dealer  
o

r
 
a
 
qualified   workshop   to   have   the   necessary  
t

op-up
 
carried   out. Once
  the   AdBlue
® tank is empty, a
 
system
 
required
  by   regulations  
p

revents
 
starting
 
of   the   engine.
If the SCR

is faulty, the level of
emissions
 
from
 
your   vehicle   will   no  
l

onger
 
meet
 
the
 
Euro   6   standard:   you  
v

ehicle
 
becomes
 
polluting.
In
 
the
 
event
 
of
 
a
 
confirmed   fault  
w

ith
 
the
 
SCR
 
system,   you   must   go  
t

o
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop
 
as
 
soon   as   possible:   after  
a

 
running
 
distance   of   650   miles  
(

1 100
 
km),
 
a
 
system   will   be   triggered  
a

utomatically
 
to
 
prevent   engine  
s

tarting.
