Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Good practice
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. 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 offers specific products.
diesel fuel filter
The Diesel fuel filter is located under the
bonnet, close to the brake fluid reservoir.
If this warning lamp comes on, the
filter must be bled to remove water.
Y
ou can also bleed the fuel filter
regularly, every time the engine oil
is changed.
Bleeding water from the filter
-
Connect a transparent pipe to the head
of the bleed screw 1 .
-
Place the other end of the transparent
pipe in a recipient.
-
Slacken the bleed screw

This operation can also be carried out
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
These bottles and containers are available
from CITROËN dealers. Filling the AdBlue tank
Filling of the AdBlue
® tank can be done
using:
-
5 or 10 litres containers equipped with a
10 centimetre filler tube or the filling kit
available from CITROËN dealers,
-
1.89 litre bottles that are screwed onto
the filler neck, available from CITROËN
dealers,
-
or when at a fuel filling station equipped
with a special AdBlue
® delivery pump for
heavy or light vehicles. Good practice
Once the AdBlue level drops to the reserve
level, you are warned by different temporary
signals (warning lamp, message, audible
signal).
When the AdBlue
® tank is empty,
restarting becomes impossible.
It is strongly recommended that you do not
wait for the successive alerts, but top-up the
AdBlue
® as soon as possible.
To facilitate filling, an adaptor is also
available from CITROËN dealers.

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
®
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 off
immediately, but does so after a few miles
of driving.
Never dispose of AdBlue® fluid bottles
in the household waste.
Place them in a special container provided
this purpose or take them to your dealer.
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.

For more information, refer to your registration certificate.
In each country, it is imperative that the towed loads authorised by
local legislation are complied with. To find out your vehicle's towing
capacities and its gross train weight, consult a franchised dealer.
The maximum authorised speed is reduced when towing (comply
with the legislation in force in your country).
With load transfer, the braked trailer weight can be increased,
on condition that the equivalent of this load is removed from the
vehicle so that the GTW is not exceeded. Warning: towing with a
lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road
holding.
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a
maximum altitude of 1000 metres; the towed load mentioned must
be reduced by 10 % for each additional 1000 metres.
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the
performance of the vehicle in order to protect the engine; when the
ambient temperature is higher than 37 °C, limit the towed weight.
The kerb weight is equal to the weight without load + driver (75
kg) +
fuel tank filled to 90%. Before towing a trailer, check
that:
-
the nose weight on the
towbar ball does not exceed
the value (S) indicated on
the trailer's weights plate,
-
the maximum trailer weight
is less than the value
indicated on the trailer's
weights plate and the Gross
Vehicle Weight (GVW)
does not exceed the value
indicated on the vehicle's
weights plate.
-
in the case of a self-
supporting trailer
, the Gross
Train Weight must not
exceed the value indicated
on the vehicle's weights
plate.
