version:
–
the distance recorder display line indicates
the distance remaining before the next service
is due, or the distance travelled since it was due
preceded by the sign “-”.
–


an alert message indicates the distance
remaining, as well as the period before the next
service is due or how long it is overdue.

service.
►

Switch the ignition off.



► Press and hold this button.
► Switch on the ignition; the distance recorder
display begins a countdown.
► Release the button when =0 is displayed; the

registered.
Reminder of the servicing information
You can access the servicing information at any
time via the instrument panel.


► Press this button to temporarily display the
servicing information.
The distance indicated (in miles or kilometres) is calculated according to the
distance covered and the time elapsed since

(Depending on version).
On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the state of the engine oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a few

18
Instruments
seconds after switching the ignition on, after the
servicing information.
The level read will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30 minutes.
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by the display of a message
prompting you to top up, accompanied by the
Service warning lamp and an audible signal.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to avoid
damage to the engine.
For more information on Checking levels, refer
to the corresponding section.
Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by the display of the " Oil
level measurement invalid" message in the
instrument panel.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of a fault with the electric
indicator, the oil level is no longer
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
For more information on Checking levels,
refer to the corresponding section.
Coolant temperature
indicator


With the engine running:
– In zone A, the temperature is correct.
–

In zone
B, the temperature is too high.
The associated warning lamp and the
STOP
warning lamp light up in red on the
instrument panel, accompanied by the display of
a message and an audible signal.
You must stop the vehicle as soon as it is
safe to do so.
Wait a few minutes before switching off the
engine.
After switching off the ignition, carefully open the bonnet and check the coolant
level.
For more information on Checking
levels, refer to the corresponding
section.
AdBlue® range indicators
(BlueHDi)
The Diesel BlueHDi engines are equipped with
a system that associates the SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) emissions control system
and the Diesel particle filter (DPF) for the
treatment of exhaust gases. They cannot
function without AdBlue
® fluid.
The engine starting prevention system required by regulations is activated
automatically once the AdBlue
® tank is empty.
It is then no longer possible to start the
engine until the minimum level of AdBlue
® has
been topped up.
Manual display of the range
While the driving range is greater than
1,500 miles (2,400 km), it is not displayed
automatically.




► Press this button to temporarily display the
driving range.

19
Instruments
1Actions required related to a lack of AdBlue®
The following warning lamps light up when the
quantity of AdBlue® is lower than the reserve
level corresponding to a range of 1,500 miles
(2,400 km).
Together with the warning lamps, messages
regularly remind you of the need to top up to
avoid engine starting being prevented. Refer to
the Warning and indicator lamps section for
details of the messages displayed.
For more information on AdBlue®
(BlueHDi engines), and in particular on
topping up, refer to the corresponding section.

Malfunction of the SCR emissions
control system
Malfunction detection


If a malfunction is detected,
these warning lamps come
on, accompanied by an
audible signal and the
display of an "
Emissions
control
fault" message.
The alert is triggered while driving when the
fault is detected for the first time, and thereafter
when switching on the ignition for subsequent
journeys, for as long as the cause of the fault
persists.
If the fault is temporary, the alert
disappears during the next journey, after
self-diagnostic checks of the SCR emissions
control system.
Malfunction confirmed during the
permitted driving phase (between 685
miles and 0
miles (1,100 km and 0 km))
If the fault indication is still displayed
permanently after 31 miles (50 km) of driving, the
fault in the SCR system is confirmed.
The AdBlue warning lamp flashes and
a message is displayed (" Emissions
control
fault: starting prevented in X miles
(kms)"), indicating the driving range in miles or
kilometres.
While driving, the message is displayed every 30
seconds. The alert is repeated when switching
on the ignition.
You can continue driving for up to 685 miles
(1,100
km) before the engine starting
prevention system is triggered.
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible.

Instruments
Starting prevented
Every time the ignition is switched on, the
message "Emissions control fault: Starting
prevented" is displayed.
To restart the engine
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Power indicator
(Rechargeable hybrid)
The power indicator shows in real time the power
demanded from the vehicle.
There are 3 zones:


POWER High power demand, using the combined capabilities of the petrol
engine and the electric motor.
The slider is located in this zone
during more dynamic driving phases
when high levels of performance are
being demanded.
ECO Optimal use of energy (internal combustion or electric).
The slider is located in this zone
when driving under electric power
and when optimal use is being made
of the petrol engine, both accessible
by adopting a suitable driving style.
A symbol indicates the threshold at
which the petrol engine will restart.
The driver can therefore moderate
their acceleration to remain in electric
driving mode.
CHARGE Energy recovery for partly recharging the traction battery.
The slider is located in this zone
during deceleration: taking your foot
off the accelerator pedal or braking.
Partial recharging of the battery by
energy recovery has no effect on the
charge level indicator.
Charge level indicator
(Rechargeable hybrid)


The charge level of the traction battery and
the remaining range in electric driving mode
are permanently displayed when the vehicle is
switched on.
The range displayed depends on the use of the vehicle (type of driving and speed),
the outside temperature and the activated
comfort equipment.
Distance recorders

The total and trip distances are displayed for
thirty seconds when the ignition is switched off,

21
Instruments
1when the driver's door is opened and when the

expressed in the official unit of the country
(km or miles). The change of units is done via
the screen configuration menu, with the
vehicle stationary.
Total distance recorder
