Good practice
Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with the
  manufacturer's   servicing   schedule.
In order to avoid damaging the
electrical units, we strongly
advise you not to use high
pressure washing to clean the engine
compartment.
After washing the vehicle dampness,
or
 
in
  winter,   ice   may   form   on   the   brake  
discs

  and   pads:   braking   efficiency   may  
be

 
reduced.   Make   some   light   brake  
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes.
If this warning lamp comes
on,

 
bleed
 
the
 
filter.
 
Otherwise
 
bleed regularly each time the
engine

 
oil
 
is
 
changed.
HDi engines use advanced
technology.
 
All

 
work
 
requires
 
special training, so should be
entrusted

 
to
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer.
Depending
 
on
 
country
 
of
 
sale.
To drain the water, unscrew the bleed
screw
 
located
 
on
 
the
 
filter.
Operate until all of the water no longer
flows
 
in
 
the
 
transparent
 
pipe,
 
then
 
tighten

 
the
 
bleed
 
screw.
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality  and   specification.
In order to optimise the operation
of
 
units   as   important   as   the   braking  
system, CITROËN selects and of

fers
specific   products.

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

  filling   with   fuel,  a
mechanical system prevents
opening
  of   the   left-hand   side   door.  
When

  the   fuel   filler   flap   is   open,   ensure  
that

  no   one   tries   to   slide   this   door.
Once
  the   flap   has   been   closed,   the  
sliding

  side   door   may   jam,   push   the  
door

  to   close   it   then   open   it.
When the low fuel level is
reached, this warning lamp
comes
 
on. A
 

label   affixed   to   the   inside   of   the   flap  
reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used.
Y

ou   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 3rd cut-off of the
nozzle.
 This
 
could
 
cause   malfunctions.
The
 
capacity
 
of
 
the
 
fuel   tank   is  
approximately 60 litres (or 55 litres
according

 
to
 
version).
-
 
After

 
filling
 
the
 
fuel   tank,   lock   the  
cap

 
and
 
close
 
the   flap.
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.

Good practice
While the quantity of AdBlue® in
the
 
additive
 
tank
 
is
 
sufficient,
 
no
 
information

 
is
 
displayed.
On
 
the
 
other
 
hand,
 
once
 
the
 
fluid
 
level drops to the quantity needed
for

 
a
 
range
 
of
 
1
 
500
 
miles
 
(2
 
400
 
km)  
driving, you are warned by dif

ferent
temporary signals (warning lamp,
message,
 
audible
 
signal).
As more miles are covered, these
signals intensify and the message
becomes
 
permanent.
When the AdBlue
® tank is empty, restarting
 
becomes   impossible.
It is strongly recommended that you
do not wait for the successive alerts
before topping-up the AdBlue
® additive,
but
 
do
 
this
 
as
 
soon
 
as
 
possible.
Filling the AdBlue® tank
For light vehicles, 5 or 10 litre
containers
 
and
 
1.89
  litre  
(1/2 US gallon)

 
bottles   are   available  
from CITROËN dealers, until they are
equipped

with AdBlue
® delivery pumps.
If
 
you
 
want
 
to
 
fill
 
the
 
AdBlue® tank yourself, ensure that you have a
suitable
 
filler
 
pipe,
 
which
 
may   or   may  
not be supplied with the additive
container

.

Filling
Ensure that the vehicle is parked on a flat  and   level   surface.
Pour
  the   contents   of   the   container   /  
bottle

  into   the   dedicated   tank.
After
  filling   the  
AdBlue® tank, observe the
 
following
 
procedure:
-

Switch on the ignition without
starting.
-


W

ait 10 seconds before starting the
engine.
Never dispose of empty AdBlue
®
containers and bottles in the
household
 
waste.
Place them in a special container
provided
 
this
 
purpose
 
or
 
take
 
them
 
to  
your

 
dealer. Keep AdBlue
® out of the
reach of children, in its original
container.
Never transfer AdBlue
® to another
container:
 
it
 
would
 
loose   its   purity.
Never
 
dilute
 
the
 
fluid
 
with   water.
Never
 
pour
 
the
 
fluid
 
into   the   Diesel   fuel  
tank.
Recommendations on storage
Never store containers or bottles of
AdBlue® in your vehicle.
Freezing of the AdBlue
®
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C (12.2° F) and
 
deteriorates   above   25°C   (77°F).
It is recommended that containers and
bottles be stored in a cool area and
protected
  from   direct   sunlight.
Under
 
these   conditions,   the   fluid   can  
be

 
kept
  for   at   least   a   year.
Additive that has been frozen can
be used once it has thawed out in
ambient air. The SCR system includes an
AdBlue
® tank heater that ensures operation of the vehicle in normal
conditions.
In exceptional situations, such as when
the
 
vehicle
 
is   kept   at   temperatures  
below -15°C (5°F) for a long period,
there may be an emission fault alert
related to freezing of the

AdBlue
®
additive.
Park
 
the
 
vehicle
 
in
 
an
 
area
 
at
 
a
 
more  
moderate temperature for a few hours
until

the AdBlue
® becomes a fluid again.
The emissions warning lamp does not
go of
f immediately, but does so after a
few
 
miles
 
of
 
driving.
