AdBlue® liquid range
indicators
Once the AdBlue® tank is on reser ve or after
detection of a

fault with the SCR emissions
control system, when the ignition is switched
on, an indicator displays an estimate of the
distance that can be covered, the range, before
engine starting is prevented.
In the event of simultaneous system fault and
low AdBlue
® level, the shortest range figure is
the one displayed.
In the event of the risk of non-
starting related to a lack of
AdBlue
®
The engine start prevention system
required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is
e m pt y.
Range greater than 1,500

miles (2,400 km)
When switching on the ignition, there is no
automatic display of range in the instrument
panel. Remaining range between 1,500
and
375 miles (2,400 and 600 km)
As soon as the 1,500 miles
threshold is reached, this warning
lamp comes on, accompanied by
a temporary message indicating
the remaining range, expressed in
kilometres or miles, before engine
starting is blocked.
Every time the ignition is switched on, the alert
is given together with an audible signal.
The reser ve level has been reached; it is
recommended that you top up as soon as
possible.

To avoid the risks of poisoning or
asphyxia, the additional heating must
not be used, even for short periods, in
a closed environment such as a garage or
workshop which are not equipped with an
exhaust gas extraction system.
The additional heating switches off when
the battery voltage is low, so as to allow
engine starting.
The additional heating is fed by the
vehicle's fuel tank. Ensure that the low fuel
warning lamp is not on.
Always switch off the additional heating
when refuelling to avoid any risk of fire or
explosion!
The temperature near the heating
system must not exceed 120°C. A higher
temperature (e.g. when baking the
paint) could damage the components of
electronic circuits.
The additional heating is fitted with
a
temperature limiter which cuts off
the combustion in the event of engine
overheating due to a
lack of coolant.
Check the level and top up if necessary.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Then press the programme selection
button before switching the heating on
again.Recommendations for ventilation and air conditioning
In order for these systems to be fully effective,
follow the operation and maintenance
guidelines below:
F

T
o ensure that the air is distributed evenly,
keep the external air intake grilles at the
base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the
vents, the air outlets and the air extractor
in the boot free from obstructions.
F

D
o not cover the sunshine sensor,
located on the dashboard; this is used for
regulation of the automatic air conditioning
system.
F

O
perate the air conditioning system for
at least 5
to 10 minutes once or twice
a
month to keep it in per fect working order.
F

E
nsure that the passenger compartment
filter is in good condition and replace
the filter elements periodically. We
recommend the use of a
combined
passenger compartment filter. Thanks to
its special active additive, it helps both to
purify the air breathed by the occupants
and to keep the passenger compartment
clean (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad
odours and greasy deposits). F
T o ensure correct operation of the
air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly as
recommended in the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide.
F

I
f the system does not produce cold air,
switch it off and contact a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a
steep
gradient in high temperatures, switching off
the air conditioning increases the available
engine power and so improves the towing
ability.
To avoid the windows misting up and
deterioration in the quality of the air:
-

d
o not drive for too long with the
ventilation switched off.
-

d
o not keep air recirculation set for an
extended period.

General safety
recommendations
Labels are attached in different places on
your vehicle. They include safety warnings
as well as identification information for
your vehicle. Do not remove them: they
are an integral part of your vehicle.
For any work on your vehicle, use
a qualified workshop that has the technical
information, skills and equipment required,
all of which a
CITROËN dealer is able to
provide. We draw your attention to the following
points:
-

T
he fitting of electrical equipment
or accessories not approved by
CITROËN may cause excessive
current consumption and faults and
failures with the electrical system of
your vehicle. Contact a
CITROËN
dealer for information on the range of
recommended accessories.
-

A
s a safety measure, access to
the diagnostic socket, used for the
vehicle's electronic systems, is
reser ved strictly for CITROËN dealers
or qualified workshops, equipped
with the special tools required (risk
of malfunctions of the vehicle's
electronic systems that could cause
breakdowns or serious accidents).
The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible if this advice is not
followed.
-

A
ny modification or adaptation not
intended or authorised by CITROËN
or carried out without meeting the
technical requirements defined by
the manufacturer will result in the
suspension of the legal and contractual
warranties. Installation of accessory radio
communication transmitters
Before installing a


radio communication
transmitter, you must contact a CITROËN
dealer for the specification of transmitters
which can be fitted (frequency, maximum
power, aerial position, specific installation
requirements), in line with the Vehicle
Electromagnetic Compatibility
Directive (2004/104/EC).
Depending on country regulations, some
safety equipment may be compulsory:
high visibility safety vests, warning
triangles, breathalysers, spare bulbs,
spare fuses, fire extinguisher, first aid kit,
mud flaps at the rear of the vehicle, etc.

Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
This system improves the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contributes towards improved control on
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The electronic brake force distribution system
(EBFD) manages the braking pressure wheel
by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system permits the
optimum braking pressure to be reached
more quickly, therefore reducing the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. The effect of this is
a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and
an increase in braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
The ASR system (also known as Traction
Control) optimises traction in order to limit
wheel slip by acting on the brakes of the driving
wheels and on the engine. It also improves
the directional stability of the vehicle on
acceleration.
