Practical information
7In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature
of the vehicle is above -11°C. Otherwise the
AdBlue
® may be frozen and so cannot be poured
into the tank. Park the vehicle in a warmer area
for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried
out.
Never pour the AdBlue® into the Diesel
fuel tank.
If any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are
any spillages on the bodywork, 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.
Important: in the event of a top-up after
a breakdown because of a lack of
AdBlue, it is essential to wait around 5
minutes before switching on the ignition,
without opening the driver’s door,
unlocking the vehicle, inserting the key
into the ignition switch, or bringing the
key for the "Keyless Entry and Starting"
system into the passenger compartment.
Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10
seconds before starting the engine.
►
Switch off the ignition and remove the key
from the switch to switch off the engine.
or ►
With Keyless Entry and Starting, press the
"
START/STOP" button to switch off the engine.
Accessing the AdBlue® tank
► To access the AdBlue® tank, open the front
left-hand door.
► From below , pull the black
cover.
►
T
urn the blue cap a 6
th of a turn
anti-clockwise.
►
Release the cap upwards.
►
With a container of
AdBlue
®: after checking
the expiry date, read the instructions on the
label carefully before pouring the contents of the
container into the vehicle's AdBlue tank.
►
With an
AdBlue® pump: insert the nozzle and
fill the tank until the nozzle automatically cuts
out.
►
After filling, perform the same sequence of
operations in reverse order
.
► Refit the black cover , starting
at the top.
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:
–
Add between 10 and 13 litres using
AdBlue® containers.
–
Stop after the nozzle’ s first automatic cut-
out, if you are refilling at a service station.
The system only registers AdBlue
® top-ups of
5
litres or more.
If the AdBlue® tank is completely empty
– which is confirmed by the message
"Top up
AdBlue: Starting impossible" – it is
essential to add at least 5 litres.
Free-wheeling
In certain situations, you must allow the vehicle
to free-wheel (while being towed, on a rolling
road, in an automatic car wash, or being
transported by rail or sea freight, etc.).

►
Disconnect the jump leads in reverse order.
►
Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if
the vehicle has one.
►
Allow the engine to run for at least
30
minutes, with the vehicle stationary, so that
the battery reaches an adequate state of charge.
Driving immediately without having
reached a sufficient level of charge may
affect some of the vehicle's functionalities.
To disconnect, proceed in reverse order.
Automatic gearbox
Never try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Charging the battery using a
battery charger
For optimum service life of the battery, it is
essential to maintain an adequate state of
charge.
In some circumstances, it may be necessary to
charge the battery:
–
When using the vehicle mainly for short
journeys.
–
If the vehicle is to be taken off the road for
several weeks.
Consult a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
To charge the vehicle's battery yourself, use only a charger compatible with
lead-acid batteries with a nominal voltage of
12
V.
Follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the charger.
Never reverse polarities.
It is not necessary to disconnect the
battery.
►
Switch the ignition off.
►
Switch off all electrical consumers (audio
system, lighting, wipers, etc.).
► Switch off charger B before connecting
the cables to the battery, so as to avoid any
dangerous sparks.
►
Ensure that the charger cables are in good
condition.
►
Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if the
vehicle has one.
►
Connect the cables of charger B
as follows:
•
the positive (+) red cable to the (+) terminal
of battery
A,
•
the negative (-) black cable to earth point C
on the vehicle.
►
At the end of the charging operation, switch
off charger B
before disconnecting the cables
from battery A.

Towing
Procedure for having your vehicle towed or
for towing another vehicle using a removable
mechanical device.
General recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
Ensure that the weight of the towing vehicle is
higher than that of the towed vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the
towed vehicle and must have a valid driving
licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on
the ground, always use an approved towing
arm; rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When the vehicle is towed with its engine
off, there is no longer braking and steering
assistance.
A professional towing service must be
called if:
–
Broken down on a motorway or main road.
–
Not possible to put
the gearbox into neutral,
unlock the steering, or release the parking
brake.
–
Not possible to tow a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox, with the engine running.
–
T
owing with only two wheels on the ground.
–
Four-wheel drive vehicle.
–
No approved towbar available.
Before towing the vehicle, it is essential
to put the vehicle in free-wheeling mode.
For more information on Free-wheeling, refer
to the corresponding section.
Electric motor
An electric vehicle cannot under any
circumstances be used to tow another
vehicle.
However, it may be used, for example, to exit
a rut.
With a manual gearbox, place the gear
lever in neutral.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector in position N.
Failure to adhere to this instruction may lead
to damage to some braking components and
the lack of braking assistance on restarting
the engine.
