Fuel tank Capacity of the tank: approximately 60 litres.

Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.Opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely normal and results from the sealing of the fuel system.) Take care to select the pump that delivers
the correct fuel type for your vehicle'sengine (reminder on a label on the inside of
the filler flap).) Open the filler cap by turning it a 1/4 turn to
the left. ) Remove the filler cap and hang it on its carrier (on the filler flap).


Opening
If you have put in the wrong fuel for your vehicle, you must have havethe tank drained and refilled with the correct fuel before you start the engine.
With Stop & Star t, never refuel with the system in STOP mode; you must switchoff the ignition with the START/STOP button.
Refuelling
)
Introduce the nozzle and push it in fully(pushing open the non-return valve Aonpetrol vehicles). )
Fill the tank (don't continue past the
third cut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause malfunctions).) Refit the filler cap turning it a 1/4 turn to
the right. ) Push the filler flap to close it.

Your vehicle is
fitted with a catalytic converter
which reduces harmful emissions in
the exhaust gas.
The filler neck is narrower and allows only
petrol nozzles to be used.
For a petrol en
gine, the use of unleaded fuel iscompulsory.
)Press the switch
This switch remains active for a few minutes
after switching off the ignition. If necessary, switch the ignition on again to reactivate it.

Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the tank isreached, this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel, accompanied
by an audible warning and a messagein the instrument panel screen.
When it first comes on, around 6 litres of fuelremain in the tank.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running out.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device
which cuts o
ff the fuel supply in the event of a collision.

It remains possible to use a fuel can tofill the tank.In order to ensure a good flow of fuel, do not place the nozzle of the fuel canin direct contact with the flap of themisfuel prevention device and pour slowly.

















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.
When a
petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the fuel filler neck of your 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.

Operation



Tr a v e l l i ng abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be different
in other countries, the presence of the misfuel
prevention device may make refuellingimpossible.
Before travelling abroad, we recommend that
you check with the CITROËN dealer network,
whether
your vehicle is suitable for the fuelpumps in the country in which you want to
travel.

standards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol)are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketedfor 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 (E10 0 type).

Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines


The Diesel engines are per fectly compatible
with biofuels which conform to current andfuture European standards (Diesel fuel whichcomplies 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 ser vicing conditions. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).

The misfuel prevention device will beactivated the next time a standard nozzle is used.
