Fuel tankFuel tank capacity: approximately 50 litres (petrol) or 46 litres (diesel) or 33 litres (LPg) ;
(dep ending on version: approximately 30 litres (petrol or di esel)).
Low fuel level
Filling
A label affixed to the inside of the flap reminds you   of   the   type   of   fuel   to   be   used   depending   on  
y

our
 eng
ine.
Additions
  of   fuel   must   be   of   at   least   7   litres,   in  
o

rder   to   be   registered   by   the   fuel   gauge.The
  key   cannot   be   removed   from   the  
l

ock   until   the   cap   is   refitted.
Opening
  the   filler   cap   may   create   a  
n

oise   caused   by   an   inrush   of   air.   This  
v

acuum   is   entirely   normal,   resulting  
f

rom   the   sealing   of   the   fuel   system.
To
  fill   the   tank   safely:
F

t
he engine must be switched off,
F

o
pen the fuel filler flap,
F
 
i
nsert   the   key   in   the   cap,   then   turn   it   to   the  
l

eft,F
 r emove   the   cap   and   hook   it   onto   the   clip  
l

ocated   on   the   inside   of   the   flap,
F
 
f
ill   the   tank,   but do not continue after the
3rd cut- off of the pump ;
  this   could   cause  
m

alfunctions.
When
  you   have   filled   the   tank:
F
 
p
ut   the   cap   back   in   place,
F
 
t
urn   the   key   to   the   right,   then   remove   it  
f

rom   the   cap,
F
 
c
lose   the   flap.
When the fuel tank minimum level is reached   this   warning   lamp   comes   on o

n   the   instrument   panel.   When   it   first
 c

omes   on   there   remains   approximately
5 litres
  of   fuel   in   the   tank.
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system  in   STOP   mode;   you   must   switch  
o

ff   the   ignition   with   the   key.
You
 
must   refuel   as   soon   as   possible   to   avoid  
r

unning   out   of   fuel.
If
 
you
 
run   out   of   fuel   (Diesel),   refer   also   to   the  
"

Checks"

Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with E10   bio-petrol   (containing   10   %   ethanol),  
c

onforming   to   European   standards   EN   228   and  
E

N
 1
5376.
E85
  type   fuels   (containing   up   to   85   %   ethanol)  
a

re   reserved   exclusively   for   vehicles   marketed  
f

or   the   use   of   this   type   of   fuel   (BioFlex  
v

ehicles).   The   quality   of   the   ethanol   must  
c

omply   with   European   standard   EN   15293.
Fuel used for diesel
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with b
iofuels   which   conform   to   current   and   future  
E

uropean   standards   (Diesel   fuel   which  
c

omplies   with   standard   EN   590   mixed   with  
a

  biofuel   which   complies   with   standard  
E

N 14214)   available   at   the   pumps   (containing  
u

p   to   7   %   Fatty   Acid   Methyl   Ester).
B30
  biofuel   can   be   used   in   certain   Diesel  
e

ngines.   However,   this   use,   even   occasional,  
r

equires   strict   application   of   the   special  
s

ervicing   conditions.   Contact   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
The
  use   of   any   other   type   of   (bio)fuel  
(

vegetable   or   animal   oils,   pure   or   diluted,  
d

omestic   fuel...)   is   strictly   prohibited   (risk   of  
d

amage   to   the   engine   and   fuel   system).
For
 
the
 
DS

we
 
strongly
 
r

ecommend
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
98
 
RON
 
u

nleaded
 
petrol
 
to
 
ensure
 
optimum
 
o

peration
 
of

Practical information

* According to country of sale.
Misfuel prevention (Diesel)*Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of engine damage that can result from filling with the wrong   fuel.
Located
  in   the   filler   neck,   the   misfuel   prevention   device   appears   when   the   filler   cap   is   removed.
Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the fuel   filler   neck   of   your   Diesel   vehicle,   it   comes  
i

nto   contact   with   the   flap.   The   system   remains  
c

losed   and   prevents   filling.
do n

ot persist but introduce a d
i
esel type
filler nozzle. It
  remains   possible   to   use   a   fuel   can   to  
f

ill   the   tank.
In   order   to   ensure   a   good   flow   of   fuel,  
d

o   not   place   the   nozzle   of   the   fuel   can  
i

n   direct   contact   with   the   flap   of   the  
m

isfuel   prevention   device   and   pour  
s

l ow l y.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may b
e   different   in   other   countries,   the  
p

resence   of   the   misfuel   prevention  
d

evice   may   make   refuelling   impossible.
Before
  travelling   abroad,   we  
r

ecommend   that   you   check   with   the  
C

ITROËN   dealer   network,   whether  
y

our vehicle is suitable for the fuel
pumps
  in   the   country   in   which   you   want  
t

o   travel.
