Low fuel level
When the low fuel level in the tank is
reached, this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel, accompanied
by an audible warning and a message.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is equipped with a safety device
which cuts off the fuel supply in the event of a
collision. When it first comes on, less than 8 litres of fuel
remain in the tank.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out.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.
Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter,
a device which helps to reduce the level of
harmful emissions in the exhaust gases.
Diesel misfuel
prevention
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids
the risk of engine 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.
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes
into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel filler
nozzle.
If your vehicle has sliding side doors, do
not open the left-hand sliding door as
there is a risk of damaging the fuel filler
flap when refuelling.

AdBlue® and SCR system
for BlueHDi Diesel engines
To assure respect for the environment and
conformity with the new Euro 6 emissions
standard, without adversely affecting the
per formance or fuel consumption of Diesel
engines, CITROËN has taken the decision to
equip its vehicles with an effective system that
associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction)
with a particle filter (FAP) for the treatment of
exhaust gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using a fluid called AdBlue® containing urea, a
catalytic converter turns up to 85% of nitrogen
oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and water, which are
harmless to health and the environment. The AdBlue
® is held in a special tank with
a capacity of about 22 litres: this provides
a driving range of about 12 500 miles
(20
000
km), after which an alert is triggered
warning you when the reserve remaining is
enough for just 1 500 miles (2 400 km).
During each scheduled service of your vehicle
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop,
the AdBlue
® tank is refilled in order to allow
normal operation of the SCR system. Once the AdBlue
® tank is empty, a
s
ystem required by regulations prevents
starting of the engine.
If the SCR
is faulty, the level of
emissions from your vehicle will no
longer meet the Euro 6 standard: your
vehicle becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed fault
with the SCR system, you must go
to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible: after
a running distance of 650 miles
(1
100 km), a system will be triggered
automatically to prevent engine starting.
When filling the tank, the filling rate
must not exceed 40 litres per minute.
If the estimated mileage between two services
is greater than 12 500 miles (20 000 km), we
recommend that you go to a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop to have the necessary
top-up carried out.
Practical information
279
Topping-up the AdBlue®
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 fluid between
services, more particularly if an alert (warning
lamps and a message) signals the requirement.
You can go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If you envisage topping-up yourself, please
read the following warnings carefully.
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. Use only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the
ISO
22241 standard.
Never dilute AdBlue
® with water.
Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
The supply in a non-drip bottle simplifies
topping-up. You can obtain 1.89 litre (half a US
gallon) bottles from a CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Never top-up from an AdBlue
®
dispenser reserved for heavy goods
vehicles.
AdBlue
® is a 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
fluid. Ammonia vapour has an irritant effect on
mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Important
If your vehicle's AdBlue
® tank is
c
ompletely empty (which is confirmed
by the alert messages and the
impossibility of starting the engine)
you must add at least 3.8 litres
(so
two
1.89
litre bottles).
