Precautions in use
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.
Never top up from an AdBlue
®
dispenser reserved for heavy goods
vehicles.
Use only AdBlue
® fluid that meets the
ISO

22241 standard. The supply in a non-drip container or bottle
simplifies topping up. You can obtain 1.89
litre
(half a US gallon) bottles or 5 or 10 litre
containers from a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
AdBlue
® is a urea-based solution. This liquid is
non-flammable, colourless and odourless (kept
in a cool area).
In the event of contact with the skin, wash
the affected area with soap and running
water. In the event of contact with the eyes,
wash (irrigate) the eyes with large amounts of
water or with an eye wash solution for at least
15

minutes. If a burning sensation or irritation
persists, get medical attention.
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth
with clean water and then drink plenty of water.
In certain conditions (high exterior temperature,
for example), the risk of release of ammonia
cannot be excluded: do not inhale the fluid.
Ammonia vapour has an irritant effect on
mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
Topping up the AdBlue®

Recommendations on storage
Never store bottles of AdBlue® in your
vehicle.
Procedure

W
ith Keyless Entry and Starting, press the
" START/STOP " button to switch off the
engine.
AdBlue
® freezes at about -11°C and
deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended
that bottles be stored in a cool area and
protected from direct sunlight .
Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept
for at least a year .
If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it
has completely thawed out. Before topping up, ensure that the vehicle is
parked on a flat and level sur face.
In 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 its tank. Park your
vehicle in a warmer area for a few hours to
allow the top-up to be carried out.
Open the filler
F With the vehicle unlocked, open the fuel filler flap; the blue filler cap for the AdBlue®
tank is located to the right of the black fuel
filler cap.

The triangle can be stored on the rear face of
the boot, secured by straps.
Assembling the triangle
As a safety precaution, before leaving your
vehicle to set up and install the triangle, switch
on the hazard warning lamps and put on your
high visibility vest.Refer to the instructions provided with the
triangle.
Positioning the triangle
Running out of fuel
(Diesel)
On vehicles fitted with Diesel engines, the fuel
system must be primed if you run out of fuel. For more information on Misfuel
prevention (Diesel) , refer to the
corresponding section.
If the engine does not start first
time, don't keep trying, but start the
procedure again from the beginning.

Engines
Engine characteristics
The engine characteristics (capacity, maximum
power, maximum engine speed, fuel, CO
2
emissions, etc.) for your vehicle are given in
the registration document, as well as in sales
brochures.
These characteristics correspond to the
values type-approved on a test bed, under
conditions defined in European legislation
(Directive
1

999/99/EC).
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Weights
Weights and towed loads
The maximum weights and towed loads for your
vehicle are given are given in the registration
document, as well as in sales brochures.
These values are also present on the
manufacturer's plate or label.
For more information, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The kerb weight is equal to the unladen
weight
+ driver (75 kg).
The GTW and towed load values indicated
apply up to a maximum altitude of
1
000 metres; the towed load mentioned
must be reduced by 10 % for every additional
1
000 metres.
The weight of the braked trailer can be
increased, within the GTW limit, on condition
that the GV W of the towing vehicle is reduced
by the same amount.
The recommended nose weight is the vertical
load on the towbar ball (removable with or
without tools).
GV W: gross vehicle weight, the maximum
authorised vehicle weight.
GT W: gross train weight, the maximum
authorised weight of vehicle plus trailer. High exterior temperatures may result
in a reduction in the per formance of
the vehicle to protect the engine; when
the exterior temperature is higher than
37
°C, limit the towed weight.
Towing with a lightly loaded vehicle can
adversely affect roadholding.
Braking distances are increased when
towing a trailer.
Never exceed 60 mph (100 km/h) when
towing (comply with the legislation in
force in your country).
If the exterior temperature is high, it
is recommended that the engine be
allowed to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after
the vehicle comes to a stop, to facilitate
its cooling.

Identification markings
A. Vehicle identification number (VIN),
under the bonnet.
The number is engraved on the body structure.-
t he maximum authorised vehicle weight
(the Gross Vehicle Weight or GV W),
-

t
he maximum authorised vehicle + trailer
weight (the Gross Train Weight or GTW),
-

t
he maximum weight on the front axle,
-

t
he maximum weight on the rear axle.-

t
he spare tyre pressure.
It also indicates the paint colour code.
B. Vehicle identification number (VIN), on
the dashboard.
The number is on a label, visible through the
windscreen. Checking tyre pressures
The tyre pressures should be checked when
cold at least monthly.
The pressures given on the label are valid for
cold tyres. If you have driven for more than
10
minutes or more than 6 miles (10 kilometres)
at more than 30 mph (50 km/h), the tyres will be
warm; in this case 0.3 bar (30 kPa) should be
added to the pressures given on the label.
Different visible markings for the identification of your vehicle.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.Never reduce the pressure of a warm
tyre. The original tyres fitted to the vehicle
may have a load index or speed rating
higher than those given on the label;
this has no effect on the inflation
pressures.
C. Manufacturer's label.
This self-destructing label is affixed to the right-
hand door aperture.
It bears the following information:
-
t
he name of the manufacturer,
-

t
he European Whole Vehicle Type Approval
number,
-

t
he vehicle identification number (VIN), D. Tyres / paint code label.
This label is affixed to the driver's door
aperture.
It bears the following information on the tyres:
-

t
he tyre pressures, unladen and laden,
-

t
he reference, size, type, load index and
speed rating,
