the needle is positioned before the
red zone:   normal   operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot
climatic
  conditions,   the   needle   may  
move

  close   to   the   red   graduations.What you should do if the needle
enters the red zone:
Reduce your speed or let the engine
run
  at   idle.
What you should do if the warning
lamp comes on:
-  
stop
  immediately,   switch   off   the  
ignition.

 
The
  fan   may   continue   to  
operate

  for   a   certain   time,   up   to  
approximately

  10   minutes,
-
wait for the engine to cool down in
order

  to   check   the   coolant   level   and  
top

  it   up   if   necessary.
As   the   cooling   system   is   pressurised,  
follow this advice in order to avoid any
risk

  of   scalding:
-
wait at least one hour after
switching of

f the engine before
carrying   out   any   work,
-  
unscrew
  the   cap   by   1/4   turn   to  
allow the pressure to drop,
-

when the pressure has dropped,
check

  the   level   on   the   expansion  bottle,
-

if necessary,  remove  the  cap  to  top  up.
If the needle remains in the red zone,
  have   the   system   checked   by  
a

  CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
workshop.

Low fuel level
Filling
The   fuel   tank   must   be   filled   with the
engine off.
-
 
Open
  the   fuel   filler   flap.
-
 
Insert
  the   key,   then   turn   it   a   quarter  
turn.
-

 
Remove
  the   cap   and   hook   it   onto  
the clip located on the inside of the
flap.
When

  filling   with   fuel,   a  
mechanical

  system   prevents  
opening

  of   the   left-hand   side   door.  
When

  the   fuel   filler   flap   is   open,   ensure  
that

  no   one   tries   to   slide   this   door.
Once
  the   flap   has   been   closed,   the  
sliding

  side   door   may   jam,   push   the  
door

  to   close   it   then   open   it.
When
 
the
 
minimum
 
fuel
 
tank
 
level is reached, this warning
lamp

 
comes
 
on.
You then have
approximately 8 litres of
fuel
 
remaining.
 
Fill
 
up
 
without
 
delay
 
to
 
avoid

 
running
 
out
 
of
 
fuel.
Never
 
risk
 
driving
 
until
 
you
 
run
 
out
 
of
 
fuel

 
as
 
this
 
may
 
damage
 
the
 
emissions
 
control

 
and
 
injection
 
systems. A
 

label   affixed   to   the   inside   of   the   flap  
reminds

  you   of   the   type   of   fuel   to   be  
used.
Y

ou   must   fill   with   at   least   5   litres   of   fuel  
for

  it   to   be   registered   by   the   fuel   gauge.
When
  the   fuel   filler   cap   is   opened,  
there

  may   be   a   slight   air   suction   noise.  
This

  vacuum   is   entirely   normal   and   is  
due

  to   the   sealing   of   the   fuel   circuit.
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

 
60
 
litres.
-
 
After

 
filling
 
the
 
fuel   tank,   lock   the  
cap

 
and
 
close
 
the   flap.
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with E10 bio-petrol (containing 10 %
ethanol),   conforming   to   European  
standards

  EN   228   and   EN   15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles
  marketed   for   the   use   of   this  
type

  of   fuel   (BioFlex   vehicles).  
The
 
quality

  of   the   ethanol   must   comply   with  
European

  standard   EN   15293.

To assure respect for the environment and   conformity   with   the   new   Euro   6  
emissions

  standard,   without   adversely  
af

fecting   the   performance   or   fuel  
consumption

  of   Diesel   engines,  
CITROËN

  has   taken   the   decision   to  
equip

  its   vehicles   with   an   effective  
system

  that   associates   SCR   (Selective  
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle
filter

  (FAP)   for   the   treatment   of   exhaust  
gases.
Presentation of the Scr system
Using an additive called adBlue®
containing urea, a catalytic converter
turns up to 85% of nitrous oxides
(
no
x) into nitrogen and water, which
are
 
harmless
 
to
 
health
 
and
 
the
 
environment.
The

a
dBlue
® additive is held in a
special
 
tank
 
located   under   the   boot  
at

 
the
 
rear
 
of   the   vehicle.   It   has   a  
capacity

 
of
 
17   litres:   this   provides   a  
driving

 
range   of   about   12   500   miles  
(20

 
000 km),   after   which   an   alert  
is triggered warning you when the
reserve

 
remaining   is   enough   for   just  
1
 
500
 
miles
 
(2   400   km).
d

uring each scheduled service of
your vehicle by a CITR
o Ë n dealer
or
 
a
 
qualified   workshop,   the  
AdBlue®
additive
 
tank
 
is
 
refilled
 
in
 
order
 
to
 
allow  
normal

 
operation
 
of
 
the
 
SCR
 
system.
If
 
the
 
estimated
 
mileage
 
between
 

two services is greater than
12 500 miles
 
(20
 
000
 
km),
 
we
 
recommend

 
that
 
you
 
go
 
to
 
a
 
CITROËN  
dealer

 
or
 
a
 
qualified
 
workshop
 
to
 
have  
the

 
necessary
 
top-up
 
carried
 
out.
o
nce the a dBlue
® tank is empty, a
 
system
 
required   by   regulations  
prevents

 
starting
 
of   the   engine.
If the SCR

is faulty, the level of
emissions
 
from
 
your
 
vehicle   will   no  
longer

 
meet
 
the
 
Euro
 
6   standard:   you  
vehicle

 
becomes
 
polluting.
In
 
the
 
event
 
of
 
a
 
confirmed   fault  
with

 
the
 
SCR
 
system,
 
you   must   go  
to

 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer
 
or   a   qualified  
workshop

 
as
 
soon
 
as
 
possible:   after  
a
 
running
 
distance
 
of
 
650   miles  
(1
 
100
 
km),
 
a
 
system
 
will   be   triggered  
automatically

 
to
 
prevent   engine  
starting.

topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Filling the adBlue® tank is an operation included in every routine service on
your vehicle by a CITR
o Ë n dealer
or
 
a
 
qualified
 
workshop.
n

evertheless, 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.
Y

ou can got to a CITR o Ë n dealer
or
 
a
 
qualified
 
workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself,
please read the following warnings
carefully. Precautions in use
The
a dBlue® 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 af

fected 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).
