When it first comes on, around 6 litres of fuel
remain in the tank.

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 comesinto contact with the flap. The system remains closed and prevents filling. Do not persist but introduce a Diesel typefiller nozzle.
Operation

prevention device ma
y make refuellingimpossible.
Before travelling abroad, we recommend that
you check with the CITROËN dealer network,

your vehicle is suitable for the fuel
pumps in the country in which you want to
