Compatibility of fuels
Diesel fuels conforming to the EN590, EN16734
and EN16709 standards and containing up to
7%, 10%, 20% and 30% fatty acid methyl ester
respectively. The use of B20 or B30 fuels, even
occasionally, imposes special maintenance
conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".
Paraffinic Diesel fuel conforming to the EN15940
standard.
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel
(e.g. pure or diluted vegetable or animal
oils, domestic fuel) is strictly prohibited - risk
of damaging the engine and fuel system!
The only Diesel fuel 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 prevent the engine from operating
correctly
. In these temperature conditions, use
winter-type Diesel fuel and keep the fuel tank
more than 50
% full.
At temperatures below -15 °C (+5 °F) to avoid
problems starting, it is best to park the vehicle
under shelter (heated garage).
Travelling abroad
Certain fuels could damage your vehicle’s
engine.
In certain countries, the use of a particular
fuel may be required (specific octane rating,
specific trade name, etc.) to ensure correct
operation of the engine.
For all additional information, consult a dealer.
Refuelling
Fuel tank capacity: approximately 69 litres.
Reserve level: approximately 6 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached,
one of these warning lamps lights
up on the instrument panel, accompanied by the
display of a message and an audible signal.
When it first comes on, about 8 litres of fuel
remain.
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
For more information on Running out of fuel
(Diesel), refer to the corresponding section.
A small arrow by the warning lamp indicates which side of the vehicle the
fuel filler flap is located on.
Stop & Start
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition.
Refuelling
At least 8 litres of fuel must be added, in order to
be registered by the fuel gauge.
Opening the filler cap may create a noise caused
by an inrush of air. This is entirely normal and
results from the sealing of the fuel system.
To refuel in complete safety:
►
Always switch off the engine.
►
Unlock the vehicle using the Keyless Entry
and Start.
► Open the fuel filler flap.
Page 180 of 324

178
Practical information
► With a conventional key, insert the key into
the filler cap, then turn the key to the left.
► Unscrew and remove the filler cap, then
place it on the holder located on the fuel filler
flap.
►
Insert the nozzle and push it in fully (while
pushing on the metal valve A
).
►
Fill the tank. Do not continue past the
third cut-off of the nozzle, as this may cause
malfunctions.
► Put the filler cap back in place and close it by
turning to the right.
►
Push the fuel filler flap to close it (your
vehicle must be unlocked).
If the vehicle is equipped with a sliding
door on its left-hand side, do not open it
while the fuel filler flap is open (risk of
damaging the fuel filler flap and the sliding
door and risk of injuring the person filling up).
If the fuel filler flap is open and you try to
open the left-hand side door, a
mechanism prevents it from being opened.
The door can be opened half-way, however.
With a mechanical door, close the fuel filler
flap to regain use of the door.
With an electric door, to be able to use it
correctly, close the fuel filler flap and then
press an opening control.
The vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter,
which helps to reduce the level of harmful
emissions in the exhaust gases.
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have the fuel
tank drained and filled with the correct fuel
before starting the engine.
Fuel cut-off
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
cuts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
Diesel misfuel prevention
Mechanical device which prevents filling the tank
of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It helps avoid the
risk of engine damage that can result from filling
with the wrong fuel.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel prevention
device appears when the filler cap is removed.
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into the
fuel filler neck of your Diesel vehicle, it comes
into contact with the flap. The system remains
closed and prevents filling.
Page 181 of 324

179
Practical information
7Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.
It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill
the tank slowly.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel, do
not place the nozzle of the fuel can in direct
contact with the flap of the misfuel prevention
device.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, it is advisable to
check with a CITROËN dealer if the vehicle is
suitable for the distribution equipment of the
countries visited.
