If the windscreen is damaged, it is strongly
recommended that you go to a CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop for any
replacement and calibration of the camera.
Operation
The system starts automatically when moving
of f.
A check of the operating conditions
takes place: these two warning
lamps come on in the instrument
panel.
When these conditions are met, these two
indicator lamps go off. The system is activated.
If the operating conditions are not met, the
system is activated but is no longer effective.
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of
these two warning lamps in the instrument
panel.
Operating conditions
Once running, the system is only active when
the operating conditions are met:
-
T
he vehicle is moving for wards.
-

N
o malfunction is detected in the vehicle.
Deactivation
F Press this button to switch off the system, the indicator lamp in the button comes on.
The system state remains in memory when the
ignition is switched off.
Reactivation
F Press this button to switch the system on, the indicator lamp in the button goes off.
The two warning lamps in the instrument panel
remain on up to 37
mph (60 km/h).
Detection
If an unexpected change of direction is
detected, you are alerted by this warning lamp
in the instrument panel and an audible signal:-
f

lashing of the left-hand warning
lamp, if drifting to the left,
-

f
lashing of the right-hand
warning lamp, if drifting to the
right.
-

T

he vehicle is moving at a

speed of at least
37

mph (60

km/h).
-
T

he longitudinal traffic lane markings on the
ground can be seen properly.
-
V

isibility conditions are normal.
-

T

he vehicle is travelling in a

straight line (or
any bends are of large radius).
-

T

he field of vision is sufficiently clear (the
safe distance from the vehicle in front is
observed).
-

I

f a

lane marking is crossed (when changing
lane for example), the corresponding
direction indicator (left or right) for the
manoeuvre is not used.
-

T

he vehicle's trajectory matches the traffic
lane markings.
No warning is given while the direction indicator
is active and for approximately 20 seconds
after the direction indicator is switched off.
A warning may be given if a
direction marking
(arrow) or non-standard marking (graffiti) is
crossed.

Fuel
The capacity of the tank is about 90 litres.
F uel tanks of different capacities may be fitted,
60
and 120 litres, depending on the engine.
Low fuel level
When the E (Empty) level is
reached, this warning lamp lights up.
You then have around 10
to 12 litres in
reser ve, depending on the capacity of the tank
and the engine.
Refuel without delay to avoid running out of
fuel.
Refilling
The fuel tank must be filled with the engine
off .

clip located on the inside of the flap.
Fuel system cut-off
In the event of a collision, a device
a utomatically cuts off the fuel supply to the
engine and the vehicle's electrical supply.
It switches on the hazard warning lamps and
the courtesy lamps, as well as unlocking the
doors.
Following an impact and before restoring
the supply, check that there is no leak of
fuel or sparks so as to avoid any risk of
fire.

For access to the reser voir filler cap, remove
the protective cover by turning its three fixing
screws a quarter turn, then remove the second
cover fitted to the cap.
Engine coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
It is normal to top up this fluid
between two services.
Check the coolant level regularly,
according to the use made of your vehicle
(every 3,000
miles (5,000 km)/3 months);
if necessary, top up using coolant
recommended by the manufacturer.
The check and top up must only be done
with the engine cold.
A low coolant level presents a
risk of
serious damage to your engine.
When the engine is hot, the temperature of the
coolant is regulated by the electric fan. This
may operate with the ignition off; furthermore,
because the cooling system is under pressure,
wait for at least one hour after the engine has
stopped before carrying out any work. F

three fixing screws a quarter turn.
F
T
o avoid the risk of scalding, place a cloth
around the cap, then loosen the cap by
a
quarter turn to release the pressure.
F

W
hen the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap and top up the level with coolant.
To p p i n g u p
The level must be between the MIN and MAX
marks on the expansion bottle.
As close as possible to the MAX mark is
recommended.
If more than 1
litre of fluid is required to top
up the level, have the system checked by
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash level
To check the level or top up the fluid
on vehicles fitted with headlamp
washers, immobilise the vehicle and
switch off the engine.
Capacity of the reservoir: approximately
5.5

Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN or
a


qualified workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
e ffectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Diesel fuel filter
The Diesel fuel filter is located under the
bonnet, close to the brake fluid reser voir. If this warning lamp comes on, the
filter must be purged to remove
water.
You can also purge the fuel filter
regularly, every time the engine oil
is changed.
Purging water from the filterThe HDi engines use advanced technology.
All work must be done by personnel that
have had special training, which can be
ensured by going to 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
components 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.

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.
Never dilute AdBlue
® with water.
Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel
tank.
Bottles or containers are available from
a

CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop.
Recommendations on storage
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It should be stored in
a

cool place 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 bottles or containers of
AdBlue
® in your vehicle.
Procedure
In cold weather, before per forming the top up
ensure that the temperature of the vehicle is
above -11°C. Other wise the AdBlue
® may be
frozen and so cannot be poured into its tank.
Park your vehicle in a

warmer area for a few
hours to allow the top up to be carried out.
Use only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the
ISO

22241

standard.

the nozzle.
-
I

f 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 4

litres.
If any AdBlue
® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the side of the body, 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.
