FUEL GAUGE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
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 off 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 qualifi ed
workshop.
Refer to the "Levels" section of
chapter 6.
Refer to the "Fuel" section of
chapter 6.
The fuel level is tested each time the
key is turned to the "running" position.
The gauge is positioned on:
- 1: the fuel tank is full,
approximately 60 litres.
- 0: the reserve is now being used, the warning lamp comes on
continuously. The reserve when
the warning fi rst comes on is
approximately 8 litres.

FILLING WITH FUEL
Low fuel level
Filling
The fuel tank must be fi lled with the
engine off .
- Open the fuel fi ller fl ap.
- Insert the key, then turn it a quarter turn.
- Remove the cap and hook it onto the clip located on the inside of the
fl ap.
When fi lling with fuel, a
mechanical system prevents
opening of the left-hand side door.
When the fuel fi ller fl ap is open, ensure
that no one tries to slide this door.
Once the fl ap 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
light 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 affi xed to the inside of the fl ap
reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used.
You must fi ll with at least 5 litres of fuel
for it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When the fuel fi ller 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 fi lling the fuel tank, do not
continue after the 3
rd cut-off of the
nozzle. This could cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 60 litres.
- After fi lling the fuel tank, lock the cap and close the fl ap.
Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly
compatible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (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 vehicles 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).

General points
For more information, refer to your
registration certifi cate.
In each country, it is imperative that
the towed loads authorised by local
legislation are complied with. To fi nd
out your vehicle's towing capacities
and its gross train weight, consult a
CITROËN dealer. With load transfer, the braked trailer
weight can be increased, on condition
that the equivalent of this load is
removed from the vehicle so that the
GTW is not exceeded. Warning: towing
with a lightly loaded towing vehicle
may have an adverse effect on its road
holding.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not
exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) (comply with
the legislation in force in your country). High ambient temperatures may result
in a reduction in the performance
of the vehicle in order to protect the
engine; when the ambient temperature
is higher than 37 °C, limit the towed
weight.
The kerb weight is equal to the weight
without load + driver (75 kg) + fuel tank
fi lled to 90%.
The GTW and towed load values
indicated are valid up to a maximum
altitude of 1000 metres; the towed load
mentioned must be reduced by 10 %
for each additional 1000 metres.
