In the event of a fault with the the SCR emissions control system
In the event of the detection
of a faultDuring an authorised driving phase (between
650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)
A system that prevents engine starting is
activated automatically from 650 miles
(1 100 km) after confirmation of a fault
with the SCR emissions control system.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as
possible.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears once the exhaust gas
emissions return to normal.
When switching on the ignition, the UREA,
SERVICE and diagnostic warning lamps comes
on, accompanied by an audible signal and the
display of a message "Emissions fault" to signal
a fault with the emissions control system.
If a fault with the SCR system is confirmed
(after 30 miles (50 km) covered with the
permanent display of the message signalling
a fault), when switching on the ignition, the
SERVICE and engine diagnostic warning lamps
come on and the UREA warning lamp flashes,
accompanied by an audible signal and the
display of a message (e.g.: "Emissions fault:
Starting prevented in 150 miles") indicating the
remaining range express in miles or kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every
30 seconds while the fault with the SCR system
persists.
You should go to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible.
If you fail to do this, there is a risk that you will
not be able to start your engine.

Starting prevented
To be able to start the engine, you must call on
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.You have exceeded the authorised
driving limit: the starting prevention
system inhibits engine starting.
Freezing of the AdBlue®
additive
The AdBlue® additive freezes at
temperatures below around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for
the AdBlue
® tank.
In exceptional circumstances (vehicle
kept for a long period at temperatures
that are constantly below -15°C), an
emissions control system fault alert may
be related to freezing of the AdBlue
® in
your vehicle.
Park your vehicle in a warmer area for
a few hours until the additive becomes
liquid again.
The emissions alert does not go off
immediately, it will occur after several
mile of running.
Every time the ignition is switched on, the SERVICE
and engine diagnostic warning lamps come on and
the UREA warning lamp flashes, accompanied by
an audible signal and the display of the message
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented".

AdBlue
® freezes at about -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended
that bottles be stored in a cool area and
protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the additive can be
kept for at least a year.
Additive that has been frozen can be used once
it has thawed out. Before topping-up, ensure that the vehicle is
parked on a flat and level sur face.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the
temperature of the vehicle is above -11°C.
Otherwise, by freezing, the AdBlue

be poured into its tank. Park your vehicle in a
warmer area for a few hours to allow the top-up
to be carried out.

checking the use-by date, read carefully
the instructions on use on the label before
pouring the contents of the bottle into your
vehicle's AdBlue

Important : if your vehicle's AdBlue
®
tank is completely empty - which is
confirmed by the alert messages and
the impossibility of starting the engine,
you must add at least 3.8 litres (so
two 1.89 litre bottles). If any additive is split or splashed, wash
immediately with cold water or wipe with
a damp cloth.
If the additive has crystallised, clean it
off using a sponge and hot water.
Important:
in the event of a top-up after
a breakdown because of a lack of
additive , signalled by the message "Top
up emissions additive: Starting prevented",
you must wait around 5 minutes before
switching on the ignition, without opening
the driver's door, locking the vehicle
or introducing the key into the ignition
switch .
