When switching on the ignition, an indicator gives an estimate of the distance that can be travelled with your vehicle before engine starting is automatically prevented, once the vehicle starts using the reserve of AdBlue ® or ® or ®
after a fault is detected with the SCR system. In the event of simultaneous system fault and low AdBlue ® level, the shortest range is ® level, the shortest range is ®
the one displayed.

If it is a temporary fault, the alert disappears once the exhaust gas emissions return to normal.
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.
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.
In the event of the detection of a fault
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.

Procedure
Press the START/STOP button to switch off the engine. Raise the boot floor for access to the AdBlue ® tank. Use an object, such as a ® tank. Use an object, such as a ®
bag, to keep the left part up.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue ® freezes at about -11°C and ® freezes at about -11°C and ®

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: when topping up after running out of additive , signalled by the message "Top up emissions additive: Starting prevented", you must wait for approximately 5 minutes before switching on the ignition, without opening the driver's door, unlocking the vehicle, placing the key of the "Keyless Entr y and Star ting" system inside the vehicle or inser ting the electronic key in the reader.
