Fuel used for petrol
engines
The petrol engines are compatible with E
10   bio-petrol   (containing   10   %   ethanol),  
c

onforming   to   European   standards   EN   228  
and
  EN   15376.
E85
  type   fuels   (containing   up   to   85   %   ethanol)  
a

re   reserved   exclusively   for   vehicles   marketed  
f

or   the   use   of   this   type   of   fuel   (BioFlex  
v

ehicles).   The   quality   of   the   ethanol   must  
c

omply   with   European   standard   EN   15293.
Fuel used for Diesel
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with biofuels   which   conform   to   current   and   future  
E

uropean   standards   (Diesel   fuel   which  
c

omplies   with   standard   EN   590   mixed   with   a  
b

iofuel   which   complies   with   standard  
EN
  14214)   available   at   the   pumps   (containing  
u

p   to   7   %   Fatty   Acid   Methyl   Ester).
B30
  biofuel   can   be   used   in   certain   Diesel  
e

ngines.   However,   this   use,   even   occasional,  
r

equires   strict   application   of   the   special  
s

ervicing   conditions.   Contact   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable
  or   animal   oils,   pure   or   diluted,  
d

omestic   fuel...)   is   strictly   prohibited   (risk   of  
d

amage   to   the   engine   and   fuel   system).
The
 
petrol
 
or
 
Diesel
 
engine
 
of
 
your
 
vehicle
 
is
 f
itted
 
with
 
a
 
catalytic
 
converter,
 
a
 
device
 
which
 
h

elps
 
to
 
reduce
 
the
 
level
 
of
 
harmful
 
emissions
 
i

n
 
the
 
exhaust
 
gases.
For petrol engines, the use of unleaded fuel
is compulsory.
The
 
filler
 
neck
 
is
 
narrower,
 
admitting
 
unleaded
 
p

etrol
 
nozzles
 
only.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device w hich cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a
collision. If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have the tank
drained and refilled with the correct
fuel before you star t the engine.

Misfuel prevention (diesel)*Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of e
ngine   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  
f

uel   filler   neck   of   your   Diesel   vehicle,   it   comes  
i

nto   contact   with   the   flap.   The   system   remains  
c

losed   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  
f

ill   the   tank.
In
  order   to   ensure   a   good   flow   of   fuel,  
d

Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be   different   in   other   countries,   the  
p

resence   of   the   misfuel   prevention  
d

evice   may   make   refuelling   impossible.
Before
  travelling   abroad,   we  
r

ecommend   that   you   check   with   the  
C

ITROËN   dealer   network,   whether   your  
v

ehicle   is   suitable   for   the   fuel   pumps   in  
t

he   country   in   which   you   want   to   travel.

AdBlue® additive and SCR system
f
or
 
BlueHDi   Diesel   engines
To assure respect for the environment and c
onformity   with   the   new   Euro   6   emissions  
s

tandard,   without   adversely   affecting   the  
p

er formance   or   fuel   consumption   of   Diesel  
e

ngines,   CITROËN   has   taken   the   decision   to  
e

quip   its   vehicles   with   an   effective   system   that  
a

ssociates   SCR   (Selective   Catalytic   Reduction)  
w

ith   a   particle   filter   (FAP)   for   the   treatment   of  
e

xhaust   gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using an additive called AdBlue® containing urea, a
 
catalytic
 
converter
 
turns
 
up
 
to
 
85%   of   nitrous o

xides
 
(NOx)
 
into
 
nitrogen
 
and
 
water,   which   are
 h

armless
 
to
 
health
 
and
 
the
 
environment.
The AdBlue® additive is held in a special t
ank
 
located
  under   the   boot   at   the   rear   of  
t

he
 
vehicle.
 
It   has   a   capacity   of   17   litres:   this  
p

rovides
 
a
 
driving   range   of   about   12   500   miles  
(

20
 
000
 
km),
  after   which   an   alert   is   triggered  
w

arning
 
you
 
when   the   reserve   remaining   is  
e

nough
 
for
 
just   1   500   miles   (2   400   km).
During
 
each
  scheduled   service   of   your   vehicle  
b

y
 
a
 
CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop,  
t

he
 
AdBlue
® additive tank is refilled in order to a
llow
 
normal   operation   of   the   SCR   system.
If
 
the
 
estimated   mileage   between   two   services  
i

s
 
greater
 
than   12   500   miles   (20   000   km),   we  
r

ecommend
  that   you   go   to   a   CITROËN   dealer  
o

r
 
a
 
qualified   workshop   to   have   the   necessary  
t

op-up
 
carried   out. Once
  the   AdBlue
® tank is empty, a s
ystem
 
required
 
by   regulations   prevents  
s

tarting
 
of
 
the
 
engine.
If the SCR

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

onger
 
meet
 
the
 
Euro   6   standard:   you  
v

ehicle
 
becomes
 
polluting.
In
 
the
 
event
 
of
 
a
 
confirmed   fault  
w

ith
 
the
 
SCR
 
system,   you   must   go  
t

o
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop
 
as
 
soon   as   possible:   after  
a

 
running
 
distance   of   650   miles  
(

1 100
 
km),
 
a
 
system   will   be   triggered  
a

utomatically
 
to
 
prevent   engine   starting.
