In the event of a fault with the
S CR emissions control system
A system that prevents engine starting is
activated automatically from 685
miles
(1,100
km) after confirmation of a fault with
the SCR emissions control system.
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as
possible.
In the event of the detection of a
fault
If it is a
temporary fault, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after
self-diagnosis of the SCR system. During the permitted driving phase
(between 685
and 0 miles (1,100 and 0 km))
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 the vehicle.
Starting prevented You have exceeded the authorised driving
limit: the starting prevention system does
not allow the engine to be started.
These warning lamps come on, accompanied
by an audible signal and the display of the
message "Emissions fault".
The alert is triggered when driving when the
fault is detected for the first time, then when
switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, while the fault persists. If a
fault with the SCR system is confirmed
(after 31 miles (50 km) covered with the
permanent display of the message signalling
a fault), these warning lamps come on and the
AdBlue warning lamp flashes, accompanied by
an audible signal and the display of a message
(e.g. "Emissions fault: Starting prevented in
185 miles") indicating the remaining range in
miles or kilometres.
Each time the ignition is switched on, these
warning lamps come on and the AdBlue
warning lamp flashes, accompanied by an
audible signal and the display of the message
"Emissions fault: Starting prevented". To be able to start the engine, you must call on
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Distance recorders
The total and trip distances are displayed for
thirty seconds when the ignition is switched off,
when the driver's door is opened and when the
vehicle is locked or unlocked.
When travelling abroad, you may need
to change the unit of distance: the speed
display must be expressed in the official
units of the country (km or miles). The
change of units is done via the screen
configuration menu, with the vehicle
stationary.

at the top of the windscreen behind the
rear view mirror; the associated functions
would no longer be controlled.
Front daytime running
lamps (LEDs)
The temporary illumination of the dipped beam
headlamps after the vehicle's ignition has been
switched off makes the driver's exit easier
when the light is poor.
