Red warning/indicator lamps Coolant
temperature On H in the red zone. The coolant temperature is too
high
and/or
an abnormal increase. Park and switch off the ignition.
Allow the system to cool sufficiently.
Check the level visually.
For more information on Checking levels
, refer to the
corresponding section.
If the level is low, top it up.
If the level is correct, contact a
CITROËN dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
Fixed, with the needle
in the red zone.
Engine oil pressure Flashing for a
few
seconds, with
a
message in the
screen. A high level of deterioration of the
engine oil.
Have the engine oil changed as soon as possible.
After the second level of alert, engine per formance will
be limited.
Lit temporarily or
fixed, with the engine
running. Low oil level
or
a major fault. Park and switch off the ignition.
Check the level manually.
For more information on Checking levels
, refer to the
corresponding section.
If the level is low, top it up.
If the level is correct, contact a
CITROËN dealer or
a
qualified workshop.
Battery charge Fixed. A fault with the charging system
or the battery. Check the battery terminals.
For more information on the Battery
, refer to the
corresponding section.
Fixed or flashing,
despite the checks. A fault with the ignition or
injection system. Have it checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Opening detection Fixed. One of the vehicle access
openings is not properly closed. Check that the cab doors, the rear and side doors and
the bonnet are closed.

Compatibility of fuels
Fuel used for Diesel
engines
The diesel engines are compatible with biofuels
that conform to current and future European
standards and which can be obtained from
filling stations.Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590
mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 7% Fatty Acid
Methyl Ester).
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN16734
mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 10% Fatty Acid
Methyl Ester).
Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets
standard EN15940
mixed with
a
biofuel that meets standard
EN14214 (possibly containing up to
7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester). For more information, contact a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted,
domestic fuel…) is strictly prohibited (risk
of damage to the engine and fuel system).
The only Diesel additives authorised
for use are those that meet the
B715000
standard.
Diesel at low temperature
At temperatures below 0°C (+32°F), the
formation of paraffins in summer-type Diesel
fuels could entail an abnormal operation
of the fuel supply circuit. To avoid this, we
recommend using winter-type Diesel fuel and
keeping the fuel tank more than 50% full.
If, despite this, at temperatures below -15°C
(+5°F) the engine has problems starting,
just leave the vehicle in a garage or heated
workshop for a
little while.
The use of B20
or B30
fuel meeting
standard EN16709
is possible in
your Diesel engine. However, this
use, even occasional, requires strict
application of the special ser vicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous
conditions".
Travelling abroad
Cer tain fuels could damage the engine of
your vehicle.
In cer tain countries, the use of a
par ticular
fuel may be required (specific octane
rating, specific sales name, etc.) to ensure
correct operation of the engine.
For any additional information, contact a dealer.

Operation
This filter, fitted in the exhaust system,
accumulates particles of soot. The engine
management unit controls the automatic
periodic elimination of the soot particles
(regeneration).
The regeneration procedure is triggered
depending on the amount of particles
accumulated and the vehicle use conditions.
During this phase, you may notice some
unusual phenomena – increased idling speed,
cooling fan running, increase in smoke and
higher exhaust gas temperature – which does
not affect the operation of the vehicle or the
environment.After prolonged idling or driving at very
low speeds, you may occasionally notice
water vapour being emitted from the
exhaust when accelerating. This is of no
consequence to the running of the vehicle
or to the environment. Because of the higher exhaust gas
temperature resulting from the normal
operation of the particle filter, it is
recommended that you do not park the
vehicle over inflammable materials (grass,
dry leaves, pine needles, etc.) so as to
avoid any risk of fire.
Saturation/Regeneration
If there is risk of blockage of the
filter, this warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel.
This alert tells you that the particle filter is
starting to saturate (in conditions of urban
driving of exceptionally long duration: low
speeds, traffic jams, etc.).
To regenerate the filter, it is advised to drive
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions
and the law permit, at a
speed of at least
37
mph (60 km/h), with an engine speed above
2,000
rpm for about fifteen minutes (until the
warning lamp and/or the message disappears).
If possible, avoid switching off the engine
before the end of the filter regeneration;
repeated interruptions could cause premature
deterioration of the engine oil. It is not
recommended to end regeneration of the filter
with the vehicle stationary.
Malfunction
If this alert persists, do not ignore the warning;
it indicates that a fault has occurred in the
exhaust system/particle filter assembly.
Have the whole system checked by a
CITROËN
dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.
If this warning lamp comes on, have
the brake pad wear checked by
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
