Fuel tank
Low fuel level
When the fuel tank minimum level is
reached this warning lamp comes on
on the instrument panel. When it first
comes on there remains approximately
5 litres of fuel in the tank.
Filling
a label affixed to the inside of the flap reminds
y ou of the type of fuel to be used depending on
your engine.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 7 litres, in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge. To fill the tank safely:
F

t
he engine must be switched off,
F
o
pen the fuel filler flap,
F
i
nsert the key in the cap, then turn it to the
left,
F
r
emove the cap and hook it onto the clip
located on the inside of the flap,
F
f
ill the tank, but do not continue after
the 3rd cut- off of the pump
; this could
cause malfunctions.
When you have filled the tank:
F
p
ut the cap back in place,
F

t
urn the key to the right, then remove it
from the cap,
F

c
lose the flap.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (
di

esel), refer also to the
"Checks" section. Fuel tank capacity: approximately
50 litres (petrol) or 46 litres (Diesel) or
37 litres (LPG); (Depending on version:
approximately 30 litres (petrol or Diesel)).
With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key. The key cannot be removed from the
lock until the cap is refitted.
op

ening the filler cap may create a
noise caused by an inrush of air. This
vacuum is entirely normal, resulting
from the sealing of the fuel system.

Practical information

156
Fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are compatible with
E10 bio-petrol (containing 10 % ethanol),
conforming to European standards E
n
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 (
bi

oFlex
vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must
comply with European standard EN 15293.
Fuel used for Diesel
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with
biofuels which conform to current and future
European standards (Diesel fuel which
complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a
biofuel which complies with standard
EN 14214) available at the pumps (containing
up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel
engines. However, this use, even occasional,
requires strict application of the special
servicing conditions. Contact a CITR
oËn


dealer or a qualified workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).
Practical information

157
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids
the risk of engine 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.
Misfuel prevention (diesel)*
Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
fuel filler neck of your
di esel vehicle, it comes
into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.
*
a
c

cording to country of sale. It remains possible to use a fuel can to
fill the tank.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can
in direct contact with the flap of the
misfuel prevention device and pour
s l ow l y.
Travelling abroad
as
diesel fuel pump nozzles may
be different in other countries, the
presence of the misfuel prevention
device may make refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we
recommend that you check with the
CITROËN dealer network, whether your
vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps in
the country in which you want to travel.
