The engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank
is empty.
Range indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reserve or after
detection of a fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed.
In the event of the risk of non-starting related to a lack of AdBlue®
Range greater than 1 500 miles (2 400 km)
When the ignition is switched on, no
information on range is displayed automatically
in the instrument panel.

Checks

Freezing of the AdBlue® additive
The AdBlue
® additive freezes at
temperatures below around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater
for the AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to
continue driving in very cold conditions.
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.

Topping-up the AdBlue® additive
Precautions in use
Keep AdBlue® out of the reach of
children, in its original bottle.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container: it would lose its purity. Never dilute the additive with water.
Never pour the additive into the Diesel
fuel tank.
Never top-up from an AdBlue®
dispenser reserved for heavy goods
vehicles.
The AdBlue
® additive is an urea-based
solution. This liquid is non-flammable,
colourless and odourless (kept in a cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash
the affected area with soap and water. In the
event of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate)
the eyes with large amounts of water or with
an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes.
If a burning sensation or irritation persists, get
medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high ambient
temperature, for example), the risk of release
of ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale
the product. Ammonia vapour has en irritant
effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and
throat).
Filling the AdBlue
® tank is an operation
included in every routine service on your
vehicle by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Nevertheless, given the capacity of the tank,
it may be necessary to top-up the additive
between services, more particularly if an alert
(warning lamps and a message) signals the
requirement.
You can got to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself, please
read the following warnings carefully. Use only AdBlue
® additive that meets the
ISO

22241 standard.
The supply in a non-drip bottle simplifies
toping-up. You can obtain 1.89 litre (half a
US

gallon) bottles from a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Checks

Never store bottles of AdBlue® in your
vehicle.
Recommendations on storage
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. 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.

Never dispose of AdBlue® additive
bottles in the household waste. Place
them in a special container provided
this purpose or take them to your
dealer.
Important: if your vehicle's
AdBlue
® tank is completely empty -
w
hich is confirmed by the alert displays
and the impossibility of starting the
engine - you must add at least 3.8 litres
(so two 1.89 litre bottles). 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:
in the event of a top-
up after a breakdown because of
a lack of additive , you must wait
around 5 minutes before switching
on the ignition, without opening the
driver's door, locking the vehicle,
