The presence of this label, in particular with
the
 
Stop
 
&
 
Start
 
system,
 
indicates
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
a

 
specific
 
12
 
V
 
lead-acid
 
battery
 
with
 
special
 
t

echnology
 
and
 
specification.
 
The
 
involvement
 
o

f
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer
 
or
 
a
 
qualified
 
workshop
 
i

s
 
essential
 
when
 
replacing
 
or
 
disconnecting
 
t

he
 
battery. The start of saturation of the
particle
  filter   is   indicated   by   the  
t

emporary   illumination   of   this   warning   lamp  
a

ccompanied   by   a   message   in   the   multifunction  
sc

reen.
As
  soon   as   the   traffic   conditions   permit,  
r

egenerate   the   filter   by   driving   at   a   speed   of   at  
l

east   40   mph   (60   km/h)   until   the   warning   lamp  
g

oes   off.
If
  the   warning   lamp   stays   on,   this   indicates   a  
l

ow   additive   level.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter
  regeneration   operations   may   be  
a

ccompanied   by   a   "burning"   smell,  
w

hich   is   per fectly   normal.
Following
  prolonged   operation   of   the  
v

ehicle   at   very   low   speed   or   at   idle,  
y

ou   may,   in   exceptional   circumstances,  
n

otice   the   emission   of   water   vapour   at  
t

he   exhaust   on   acceleration.   This   does  
n

ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
  the   environment.
When
 
carrying
 
out
 
work
 
on
 
the
 
battery,
 
refer
 
t

o
 
the
 
"12
 
V
 
battery"
 
section
 
for
 
details
 
of
 
the
 
p

recautions
 
to
 
be
 
taken
 
before
 
disconnecting
 
t

he
 
battery
 
and
 
following
 
its
 
reconnection.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty a tmosphere)   and   the   use   of   the   vehicle   (e.g.   city d

riving),
 r
eplace them twice as often if necessar y .
A
  clogged   passenger   compartment   filter   may   have
 a

n   adverse   effect   on   the   per formance   of   the   air
 c

onditioning   system   and   generate   undesirable
 o

dours.
