REFUELLING
Low fuel level
Filling
The fuel tank must be filled with the 
engine off.
- 
Open the fuel filler flap.
-
 
Insert the key
 , then turn it a quarter 
turn.
-
 
Remove the cap and hook it onto 
the clip located on the inside of the 
flap.
When fillin
g with fuel, with the fuel 
filler flap open, ensure that no one 
attempts to open the sliding side 
door.
When the low fuel level is 
reached, this warning lamp 
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.Fuel used for petrol  
engines
A label affixed to the inside of the flap 
reminds you of the type of fuel to be 
used.
You must fill with at least 5 litres of fuel 
for it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When the fuel filler cap is opened, 
there may be a slight inrush of air. This 
vacuum is entirely normal and is due to 
the sealing of the fuel system.
When filling 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 fillin
g the fuel tank, lock the 
cap and close the flap. The petrol engines are compatible 
with E10 bio-petrol (containing 10 % 
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.

BLUEHDI
AND  A D B LUE
® ADDITIVE
The technology
adBlue® is the brand name of the 
solution needed for operation of the 
SCR system. BlueHDi vehicles have a specific 
a
dBlue 
® additive tank with a capacity 
of 17 litres.
It has an exterior filler with a blue filler 
cap, located to the left of the 
d iesel 
fuel filler cap.
Filling of the 
a
dBlue
® tank can be 
done using 5 or 10 litre containers, 
1.89 litre bottles, or when at a fuel 
filling station equipped with a special 
a
dBlue
® delivery pump for light 
vehicles.
The objective of BlueHDi is to reduce 
by up to 90% the emissions of NOx 
(nitrous oxides) in the air
, using a 
system that converts NOx into water 
vapour and nitrogen in a dedicated 
catalytic converter: SCR (Selective 
Catalytic Reduction).
This objective meets the "Euro" 
emissions standard adopted by the 
European Union aimed at limiting the 
emissions of pollutants from internal 
combustion engines.
The BlueH
d
i generation of engines 
allow the "Euro 6" European standard 
to be met, with an extra tank to hold 
the 
a
dBlue
® fluid for the treatment of 
exhaust gases.
This operation can also be carried 
out by a CITR
o Ë n  dealer or a 
qualified workshop.
Please note that the high delivery 
pumps at some filling stations, 
intended only for lorries and coaches, 
are not suitable for cars or light 
commercial vehicles.
Never use these pumps.

WEIGHTS AND  TOWED   LOADS
These values, expressed in kg, can be 
found on the manufacturer's VIN plate 
or label.
The maximum weights and towed 
loads for your vehicle can be found on 
the vehicle's registration certificate. The recommended nose weight is 
the downward force on the towball 
(removable with or without tools).
In each country, it is imperative that 
the maximum towed loads authorised 
by local legislation are complied 
with. To find out your vehicle's towing 
capacities and its gross train weight, 
consult a CITROËN dealer.
The kerb weight is equal to the weight 
without load + driver (75 kg) + fuel tank 
filled to 90%.
The GTW and towed load values 
indicated are valid up to a maximum 
altitude of 1000 metres. The value of 
the towed load mentioned must be 
reduced by 10 % for each additional 
1000 metres.
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. 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 location of the manufacturer's 
plate is given in chapter 9, 
"Identification markings" section.
ENGINE CHARACTERISTICS
The engine characteristics (capacity, 
maximum power, maximum power 
speed, fuel, C
o
2 emissions...) for your 
vehicle are given in the registration 
certificate.
These characteristics correspond to the 
values type-approved on a test bed, 
under conditions defined in European 
legislation (Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, refer to the 
manufacturer's website or sales 
brochure for the model. Contact 
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop. GVW: gross vehicle weight, the 
maximum authorised weight.
GTW: gross train weight, the maximum 
weight for vehicle plus trailer.
Towing with a lightly loaded 
vehicle can adversely affect road 
holding.
Towing a trailer increases braking 
distances.
When towing, the maximum permitted 
speed is reduced (comply with the 
legislation in force in the country).
