BLUEHDI
A n D 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
AdBlue
® additive tank with a capacity
of 17 litres.
It has an exterior filler with a blue filler
cap, located to the left of the Diesel
fuel filler cap.
Filling of the AdBlue
® 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
AdBlue
® 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 BlueHDi generation of engines
allow the "Euro 6" European standard
to be met, with an extra tank to hold
the AdBlue
® fluid for the treatment of
exhaust gases.
This operation can also be carried
out by a CITROËN 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.

In the event of an accident or impact
under the vehicle or to one of the
charging fl aps
In the event of an accident or an
impact to the underbody of the vehicle
(for example: contact with a milestone,
a raised kerb or other urban roadside
fi xture) or in the event of an impact,
even slight, to one of the charging
fl aps, these circumstances may
have serious repercussions for your
vehicle's electrical system or traction
battery and cause damage to them.
Have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible by a franchised dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Never touch the "300 Volt" components
of the orange cables exposed and
visible inside or outside of the vehicle.
In the case of serious damage to the
traction battery:


- do not try to do anything to the
vehicle yourself,

- never touch liquids coming from
the traction battery and in the event
of contact between your body and
these products, wash abundantly
with water and contact a doctor as
soon as possible.
For washing the bodywork, do
not use a pressure greater than
80 bar.


In the event of exposure to a fi re
In the event of exposure to a fi re,
leave and have everybody leave the
vehicle immediately. Never intervene
yourself (risk of electrocution). You
must contact the emergency services
immediately. Warn them that your
vehicle is electric.


Audible environment


Outside

The driver should be particularly
vigilant when driving the electric
vehicle, as it makes very little noise
when moving.

Inside

While it is operating you may hear
noises that are specifi c to an electric
vehicle, such as:


- the traction battery relays when
starting,

- the vacuum pump when braking,

- tyre or wind noise from the vehicle
when driving.
When parking on a slope, it is
recommended that you apply the
parking brake before placing the drive
selector at P
. When moving off, o
knock may be felt, which is normal.
Washing precautions
Never wash the vehicle while the
battery is on charge.
Before washing the vehicle, check
that the access fl aps are closed and
the cover on each charging socket is
closed.
In order to avoid damaging the electric
units, the use of a high pressure jet
wash is strictly forbidden:


- under the bonnet,

- under the vehicle, around the
battery packs.
Long term
When your vehicle is to be laid up
for an indeterminate period, carry out
a complete recharge of the traction
battery every three months (following
the normal charging procedure). Before
carrying out the charging operation,
ensure that the 12 V ancillaries battery
is not disconnected or discharged. If
this is the case, refer to the "Ancillaries
battery" section for information on
connecting or charging it.


Laying up the vehicle


Precautions to take when
charging the battery


- Do not stay inside or near the
vehicle.
Particularly if you wear a pacemaker
or other medial electric device.
For complete information on the
precautions to take, contact your
doctor.


- Never do any work under the
bonnet as there is a risk of serious
injury.
Risk of cuts as the fan may start
turning at any time. Risk of burns
as some areas remain very hot for
even an hour after the end of the the
charging operation.
