Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids
the risk of en
gine 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.
















Misfuel prevention (Diesel) *


Operation

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.
*
According to country of sale.
It remains possible to use a fuel can to fill the tank. In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in direct contact with the flap of the misfuel prevention device and pour slowly.
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 refuelling impossible. Before travelling abroad, werecommend that you check with the CITROËN dealer network, whether your
vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps inthe country in which you want to travel.
