Instruments and controls
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel level is tested each time the key is
turned to the "running" position.
The gauge is positioned on:
- F (Full): the capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 45 litres .
- E (Empty): the reserve is now being
used, the warning light comes on
continuously.
The reserve when the warning first comes
on is approximately 6 litres.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
The needle is positioned between C
(Cold) and H (Hot): normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations.
-wait for approximately 15 minutes to allow the engine to cool down, then check the level and if necessary top up. The cooling circuit is pressurised. In order to avoid any risk of burns, unscrew the cap 2 turns to release the pressure.
When the pressure has dropped, check the level and remove the cap to top up. If the needle remains in the red zone, contact a CITROËN dealer
EMISSION CONTROL
EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis) is
a diagnostics system which complies with,
among others, the standards concerning
authorised emissions of:
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrogen oxides) or particles
detected by oxygen sensors placed
upstream and downstream of the catalytic
converters.
Refer to the "Levels" section of
chapter 7.
Refer to the "Levels" section of
chapter 7.
Therefore, the driver is warned of
any malfunction of this emission
control system by the flashing of
this specific warning light on the
instrument panel.
What you should do if the needle
enters the red zone, or if the warning
light comes on:
- stop immediately, switch off the ignition.
The fan may continue to operate for
a certain time up to approximately
10 minutes.

FILLING WITH FUEL
Low fuel level
When the minimum fuel tank
level is reached, this warning
light comes on. At this moment,
you have approximately 6 litres
remaining. Fill up without delay to avoid
running out of fuel.
The fuel tank must be filled with the engine
off .
- Open the fuel filler flap.
- Hold the cap with one hand.
- With the other hand, insert the key and turn it a third of a turn.
- Remove the cap. When the fuel filler flap is open, a
safety system prevents sliding of the
side door.
A label affixed to the inside of the flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
When filling the fuel tank, do not continue
after the 3rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could
cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 45 litres.
After filling the fuel tank, lock the cap and
close the flap.
FUEL CIRCUIT DEACTIVATED
In the event of a serious collision, a device
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle’s electrical supply.
This also automatically unlocks the doors
and switches on the interior lights.
A message is displayed on the instrument
panel (depending on model).
Turn the key to position STOP to avoid the
battery being discharged.
Check that there is no smell or leak of fuel
outside the vehicle.
Reactivating
To continue driving, manually re-establish
the fuel supply and the electrical supply:
- with the ignition key in position STOP,
turn it to position RUNNING,
- move the direction indicators control stalk all the way upwards,
- put it to position "Stop",
- move the direction indicators control stalk all the way downwards,
- put it to position "Stop" again,
- move it all the way upwards again,
- put it to position "Stop" again,
- move it all the way downwards again,
- put it to position "Stop" again,
- turn the ignition key to position STOP.
