Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the fuel   filler   neck   of   your   Diesel   vehicle,   it   comes  
i

nto   contact   with   the   flap.   The   system   remains  
c

losed   and   prevents   filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.
Misfuel prevention (Diesel)*Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids the risk of e ngine   damage   that   can   result   from   filling   with   the   wrong   fuel.
Located
  in   the   filler   neck,   the   misfuel   prevention   device   appears   when   the   filler   cap   is   removed.
It
  remains   possible   to   use   a   fuel   can   to  
f

ill   the   tank.
In
  order   to   ensure   a   good   flow   of   fuel,  
d

o   not   place   the   nozzle   of   the   fuel   can  
i

n   direct   contact   with   the   flap   of   the  
m

isfuel   prevention   device   and   pour  
s

l ow l y.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be   different   in   other   countries,   the  
p

resence   of   the   misfuel   prevention  
d

evice   may   make   refuelling   impossible.
Before
  travelling   abroad,   we  
r

ecommend   that   you   check   with   the  
C

ITROËN   dealer   network,   whether   your  
v

ehicle   is   suitable   for   the   fuel   pumps   in  
t

he   country   in   which   you   want   to   travel.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have have
the tank drained and refilled with
the correct fuel before you star t
the

engine.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that c
uts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.

AdBlue® additive and SCR system
f
or
 
BlueHDi   Diesel   engines
To assure respect for the environment and c
onformity   with   the   new   Euro   6   emissions  
s

tandard,   without   adversely   affecting   the  
p

er formance   or   fuel   consumption   of   Diesel  
e

ngines,   CITROËN   has   taken   the   decision   to  
e

quip   its   vehicles   with   an   effective   system   that  
a

ssociates   SCR   (Selective   Catalytic   Reduction)  
w

ith   a   particle   filter   (FAP)   for   the   treatment   of  
e

xhaust   gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using an additive called AdBlue® containing u
rea,
 
a
 
catalytic
 
converter
 
turns
 
up   to   85%  
o

f
 
nitrous
 
oxides
 
(NOx)
 
into
 
nitrogen   and  
w

ater,
 
which
 
are
 
harmless
 
to
 
health   and   the  
e

nvironment. The
  AdBlue
® additive is held in a special t
ank
 
located
  under   the   boot   at   the   rear   of  
t

he
 
vehicle.
 
It   has   a   capacity   of   17   litres:   this  
p

rovides
 
a
 
driving   range   of   about   12   500   miles  
(

20
 
000
 
km),
  after   which   an   alert   is   triggered  
w

arning
 
you
 
when   the   reserve   remaining   is  
e

nough
 
for
 
just   1   500   miles   (2   400   km).
During
 
each
  scheduled   service   of   your   vehicle  
b

y
 
a
 
CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop,  
t

he
 
AdBlue
® additive tank is refilled in order to a
llow
 
normal   operation   of   the   SCR   system.
If
 
the
 
estimated   mileage   between   two   services  
i

s
 
greater
 
than   12   500   miles   (20   000   km),   we  
r

ecommend
  that   you   go   to   a   CITROËN   dealer  
o

r
 
a
 
qualified   workshop   to   have   the   necessary  
t

op-up
 
carried   out. Once
  the   AdBlue
® tank is empty, a s
ystem
 
required
 
by   regulations   prevents  
s

tarting
 
of
 
the
 
engine.
If the SCR

is faulty, the level of
emissions
 
from
 
your   vehicle   will   no  
l

onger
 
meet
 
the
 
Euro   6   standard:   your  
v

ehicle
 
becomes
 
polluting.
In
 
the
 
event
 
of
 
a
 
confirmed   fault  
w

ith
 
the
 
SCR
 
system,   you   must   go  
t

o
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop
 
as
 
soon   as   possible:   after  
a

 
running
 
distance   of   650   miles  
(

1 100
 
km),
 
a
 
system   will   be   triggered  
a

utomatically
 
to
 
prevent   engine   starting.
