Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly com-
patible with biofuels which conform to
current and future European standards
(Diesel fuel which complies with stan-
dard 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 servicing conditions. Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or dilut-
ed, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
system).
petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly com-
patible with E10 or E24 type petrol bio-
fuels (containing 10 % or 24 % ethanol),
conforming to European standards EN
228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for ve-
hicles marketed for 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 (E100 type).

amperages develops a fault, replace it with the following
fuse:
A 7.5 A fuse
must be replaced with the 10 A spare fuse
,
a 25 A fuse
with a 20 A spare fuse
and a 30 A fuse
with
the audio system fuse (N° 31)
.
* The maxi-fuses provide additional protection for the electrical systems. All work on the maxi-fuses must be carried
out by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
