In the event of a fault with the SCR emissions control system
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.You have exceeded the authorised
driving limit: the starting prevention
system inhibits engine starting.
If it is a temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey,
after self-diagnosis of the SCR system.
The UREA, SERVICE and diagnostic warning
lamps comes on, accompanied by an audible
signal and the display of the message
"Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered when driving when the
fault is detected for the first time, then when
switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists. 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), 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.
The alert is repeated when switching on the ignition.
You should go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
Other wise, you will not be able to restart your engine.
During an authorised driving phase (between
650 miles and 0 miles) (1 100 km and 0 km)

Never store bottles of AdBlue® in your
vehicle.
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.
If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it
has completely thawed out.
Recommendations on storage
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 the AdBlue
® may be frozen and
so cannot 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.
Procedure
F For access to the AdBlue® tank, raise the
boot carpet then, depending on equipment,
lift out the spare wheel and/or the storage
box.
