Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units
as important as those in the braking
system, CITROËN selects and offers very
specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi
engines)System SCR
By 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 contained in
a special tank holding about
22
litres.
Its capacity allows a driving range of around
6,000-9,000
miles (10,000-15,000
km). An
alert system is triggered automatically when
the remaining range reaches 1,500
miles
(2,400
km), i.e. once the reser ve level has been
reached.
Several alerts are triggered successively during
the remaining 1,500
miles (2,400 km) before
the tank is empty.
If the estimated distance travelled by your
vehicle between two ser vices is greater than
12,000
miles (20,000
km), it will be necessary
to top up the AdBlue.
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the new Euro 6
standard,
without adversely affecting the performance or
fuel consumption of Diesel engines, CITROËN
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a particle filter (DPF)
for the treatment of exhaust gases.
Practical information
251
Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a system
required by regulations prevents starting
of the engine.
If the SCR system is defective, 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 travelling the distance of
685
miles (1,100
km), a system preventing
the engine starting will be triggered
automatically.
In either case, a range indicator gives you
the distance you can travel before the
vehicle is immobilised.
For more information on the Warning
lamps and the associated alerts, refer to
the corresponding section.
Important
If your vehicle's AdBlue
® tank is
completely 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).
Topping up with AdBlue®
Given the capacity of the tank, it may be
necessary to top up the fluid between ser vices,
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.
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 all weather conditions.
Precautions for use
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 you feel
a persistent burning sensation or irritation, get
medical attention. Keep AdBlue
® out of the reach of children,
in its original container or 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.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high exterior temperature,
for example), the risk of release of ammonia
cannot be excluded: do not inhale the vapours.
Ammonia has an irritant effect on mucous
membranes (eyes, nose and throat).

QUESTIONRESPONSE SOLUTION
The route calculation is not
successful. The guidance criteria may be in conflict with the current
location (exclusion of toll roads on a toll road). Check the route settings in the "Navigation" menu.
The POIs do not appear. The POIs have not been selected. Select the POIs in the list of POIs.
The audible warning of "Danger
areas" does not work. The audible warning is not active or the volume is too
low. Activate the audible warning in the "Navigation" menu
and check the voice volume in the audio settings.
The system does not suggest
a detour around an incident on
the route. The guidance criteria do not take account of TMC
messages.
Select setting for the "Traffic info " function in the list of
route settings (Without, Manual or Automatic).
I receive a "Danger zone" alert
which is not on my route. Other than guidance, the system announces all "Danger
zones" positioned in a cone located in front of the
vehicle. It may provide an alert for "Danger zones"
located on nearby or parallel roads. Zoom in on the map to see the exact position of the
"Danger zone". Select "On the route" to no longer
receive alerts other than navigation instructions or to
reduce the time for the announcement.
Certain traffic jams along the
route are not indicated in real
time. On starting, it is several minutes before the system
begins to receive the traffic information.
Wait until the traffic information is being received correctly
(display of the traffic information icons on the map).
In certain countries, only major routes (motor ways, etc.)
are listed for the traffic information. This is per fectly normal. The system is dependent on
the traffic information available.
The altitude is not displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3
minutes to receive more than 4 satellites correctly.Wait until the system has started up completely so that
there is GPS coverage by at least 4
satellites.
Depending on the geographical environment (tunnel,
etc.) or the weather, the conditions of reception of the
GPS signal may vary. This behaviour is normal. The system is dependent on
the GPS signal reception conditions.
My navigation is no longer
connected. During start-up and in certain geographical areas, the
connection may be unavailable. Check that the connected ser vices are activated
