Practical information
7brake must be adjusted, even between two 
services.
This system must be checked by a CITROËN 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine servicing. However, in the event of a 
problem, do not hesitate to have the system 
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
For more information on the  Electric 
parking brake, refer to the 
corresponding section.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres,  including the spare wheel, must be 
checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure 
label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven 
for more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles 
(10 kilometres) at over 31 mph (50
  km/h), add 
0.3 bar (30 kPa) to the values indicated on the 
label.
Under-inflation increases energy 
consumption. Non-compliant tyre 
pressures cause tyres to wear prematurely 
and have an adverse effect on the vehicle's 
road holding - risk of accident! Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the 
braking and road holding performance of the 
vehicle. Regularly check the condition of the 
tyres (tread and sidewalls) and rims as well as 
the presence of the valve caps.
When the wear indicators no longer appear set 
back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is 
less than 1.6 mm; replace the tyres as soon as 
possible.
Using different size wheels and tyres from those 
specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel 
rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer 
reading and have an adverse effect on road 
holding.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles 
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Always mark the direction of rotation on the tyres 
that will be stored when fitting winter or summer 
tyres. Store them in a cool, dry place and away 
from direct exposure to the sun's rays.
Winter or 4-seasons tyres can be 
identified by this symbol on their 
sidewalls.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
To respect the environment and ensure  compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without 
adversely affecting the performance or fuel 
consumption of its Diesel engines, CITROËN 
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with 
a system that combines SCR (Selective Catalytic 
Reduction) with a Diesel Particle Filter (DPF) for 
the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains 
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of 
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and 
water, which are harmless to health and the 
environment.
The AdBlue® is contained in  a special 
tank holding about 17 litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of 
approximately 3,000
  miles (5,000   km) (which 
may vary considerably  depending on your 
driving style and the vehicle). An alert system 
is automatically triggered when the remaining 
range reaches 1,500 miles (2,400
  km), i.e. once 
the reserve level has been reached.
Several alerts are triggered successively during 
the remaining 1,500 miles (2,400
  km) until the 
tank is empty and the vehicle is immobilised.
For more information on the  Warning 
and indicator lamps  and the associated 
alerts, or the Indicators, please refer to the 
corresponding sections.
Once  the AdBlue® tank is empty, a device 
required by law prevents the engine from 
being restarted.
If the SCR system is faulty, the level of 
emissions from the vehicle will no longer meet    

198
Practical information
the Euro 6 standard and the vehicle starts 
polluting the environment.
In the event of a confirmed SCR system 
malfunction, it is essential to visit a CITROËN 
dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as 
possible. After 685 miles (1,100 km), a device 
is automatically activated to prevent the 
engine from starting.
In both cases, a range indicator indicates 
the distance that can be travelled before the 
vehicle is immobilised.
Freezing of the AdBlue®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below 
around -11°C.
The SCR system includes a heater for the 
AdBlue
® tank, allowing you to continue driving 
in very cold conditions.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® be topped 
up as soon as the first alert is issued indicating 
that the reserve level has been reached.
For the correct operation of the SCR 
system:
–
 
Use 
 only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the ISO 
22241 standard.
–
 
Never 
transfer AdBlue
® to another container 
as it would lose its purity.
–
 
Never 
dilute AdBlue
® with water.
You can obtain AdBlue® from a CITROËN dealer 
or a qualified workshop, as well as service 
stations equipped with AdBlue
® pumps specially 
designed for passenger vehicles.
Never top up from an AdBlue® dispenser 
reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates 
above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a 
cool area and protected from direct sunlight.
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for 
at least a year.
If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has 
completely thawed out at room temperature.
Never  store AdBlue® containers in your 
vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based  solution. This fluid is 
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (when 
kept in a cool place).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash the 
affected area with soap and running water. In the 
event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse 
the eyes with large amounts of water or with an 
eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek 
medical attention if you feel a persistent burning 
sensation or irritation.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth 
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high temperature, for 
example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot 
be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia 
vapours have an irritant effect on mucous 
membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Store AdBlue® out of the reach of 
children, in its original container.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that 
the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature 
of the vehicle is above -11°C. Otherwise the 
AdBlue
® may be frozen and so cannot be poured 
into the tank. Park the vehicle in a warmer area 
for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried 
out.
Never pour the AdBlue® into the Diesel 
fuel tank.
If  any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are 
any spillages on the bodywork, rinse 
immediately with cold water or wipe with a 
damp cloth.
If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a 
sponge and hot water.
Important: in the event of a top-up after 
a breakdown because of a lack of    

199
Practical information
7AdBlue, it is essential to wait around 5 
minutes before switching on the ignition, 
without opening the driver’s door, 
unlocking the vehicle, inserting the key 
into the ignition switch, or bringing the 
key for the "Keyless Entry and Start" 
system into the passenger compartment.
Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10 
seconds before starting the engine.
►
 
Switch off the ignition and remove the key 
from the switch to switch off the engine.
or
►
 
With Keyless Entry and Start, press the 
"
START/STOP" button to switch off the engine.
 
 
► With the vehicle unlocked and the fuel filler 
flap open, turn the blue cap of the  AdBlue® tank 
anti-clockwise and remove it.
►
 
With a container of 
AdBlue
®: after checking 
the expiry date, read the instructions on the 
label carefully before pouring the contents of the 
container into the vehicle's AdBlue tank.
►
 
With an
 
AdBlue® pump: insert the nozzle and 
fill the tank until the nozzle automatically cuts 
out.
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:
–
 Add between 10 and 13 litres using 
AdBlue® containers.
–
 Stop after the nozzle’ s first automatic cut-
out, if you are refilling at a service station.
The system only registers AdBlue
® top-ups of 
5
 
litres or more.
If  the AdBlue® tank is completely empty 
– which is confirmed by the message 
“Top up
 
AdBlue: Starting impossible ” – it is 
essential to add at least 5 litres.
After refilling
► Refit the blue cap to the tank filler and turn it 
clockwise, as far as it will go.
►
 
Close the fuel filler flap.
Do not dispose of AdBlue® bottles or 
containers in the household waste.
Place them in a container reserved for this 
purpose or take them back to where you 
purchased them.
Free-wheeling
In certain situations, it is necessary to put the 
vehicle into free-wheeling mode (e.g.   towing, on 
a rolling road, automatic car wash (Wash mode), 
rail or sea transport).
The procedure varies according to the type of 
gearbox and parking brake.
Do not leave the vehicle unattended 
while coasting.
Keyless Entry and Start
You must not depress the brake pedal 
while switching the ignition on again, then 
switching it off. If you do, the engine will start, 
requiring you to restart the procedure.
