Every time the ignition is switched on, the 
SERVICE and engine diagnostic warning 
lamps come on and the UREA warning lamp 
flashes, accompanied by an audible signal and 
the display of the message "Emissions fault: 
Starting prevented". Starting prevented
To be able to start the engine, you must call on 
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.You have exceeded the authorised 
driving limit: the starting prevention 
system inhibits engine starting. Freezing of the AdBlue
® additive
The AdBlue
® additive freezes at 
temperatures below around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater 
for the AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to 
continue driving in very cold conditions.

Topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Filling the AdBlue® tank is an operation 
included in every routine service on your 
vehicle by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
Nevertheless, given the capacity of the tank, 
it may be necessary to top-up the additive 
between services, more particularly if an alert 
(warning lamps and a message) signals the 
requirement.
You can got to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself, please 
read the following warnings carefully.Precautions in use
The AdBlue® additive is an urea-based 
solution. This liquid is non-flammable, 
colourless and odourless (kept in a cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash 
the affected area with soap and water. In the 
event of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate) 
the eyes with large amounts of water or with 
an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. 
If a burning sensation or irritation persists, get 
medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth 
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high ambient 
temperature, for example), the risk of release 
of ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale 
the product. Ammonia vapour has en irritant 
effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and 
throat).
Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of 
children, in its original bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue 
® to another 
container : it would lose its purity. Use only AdBlue
® additive that meets the 
ISO
 
22241 standard.
Never dilute the additive with water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel 
fuel tank.
Never top-up from an AdBlue
® 
dispenser reserved for heavy goods 
vehicles.
The supply in a non-drip bottle simplifies 
toping-up. You can obtain 1.89 litre (half a US 
gallon) bottles from a CITROËN
 
dealer or a 
qualified workshop.

Never store bottles of AdBlue® in your 
vehicle. Before topping-up, ensure that the vehicle is 
parked on a flat and level sur face.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the 
temperature of the vehicle is above -11°C. 
Other wise, by freezing, the AdBlue
® 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.
Procedure
F Press the START/STOP button to switch  off the engine. F
 
R
 aise the boot floor for access to the 
AdBlue
® tank. Use an object, such as a 
bag, to keep the left part up.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and 
deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended 
that bottles be stored in a cool area and 
protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the additive can be 
kept for at least a year.
If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it 
has completely thawed out.

Important: if your vehicle's 
AdBlue
® tank is completely empty - 
w
hich is confirmed by the alert 
messages and the impossibility of 
starting the engine - you must add at 
least 3.8 litres, so two 1.89 litre bottles. If any additive is split or splashed, wash 
immediately with cold water or wipe 
with a damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it 
off using a sponge and hot water.Important: 
when topping up after 
running out of additive , signalled 
by the message "Top up emissions 
additive: Starting prevented", you must 
wait for approximately 5 minutes before 
switching on the ignition, without 
opening the driver's door, unlocking 
the vehicle, placing the key of the 
"Keyless Entr y and Star ting" system 
inside the vehicle or inser ting the 
electronic key in the reader.
Switch on the ignition, wait for 
10
  seconds, then start the engine.
Never dispose of AdBlue
® additive 
bottles in the household waste. Place 
them in a special container provided 
this purpose or take them to your 
dealer.

he weight of the braked trailer can be increased, within the GTW limit, if the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced by an equal amount; warning, 
towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by 10 % for 
each additional 1 000 metres of altitude.
When towing the maximum authorised speed is reduced (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the per formance of the vehicle to protect the engine; if the ambient temperature is above 37 °C, 
limit the towed load.
