AdBlue^®

Fault conﬁrmed

Refilling / Topping-up the

AdBlue^®

In addition to the previous signals,

the UREA warning lamp ﬂashes and

the remaining range allowed will be

displayed in miles (kilometres).

The alert will be repeated every

30 seconds with an update of the

driving range in steps of 30 miles

(50 km).

Go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualiﬁed

workshop as soon as possible.

You risk not being able to start the

engine.

To facilitate ﬁlling, an adaptor is

available from CITROËN dealers.

Precautions to take

Use only AdBlue ^®that meets the

ISO 22241 standard.

The AdBlue ^®ﬂuid is an urea-based

solution.

This ﬂuid is non-ﬂammable, colourless

and odourless.

To be kept in a cool area.

In the event of an overﬂow, wipe

around the ﬁller mouth using a

damp cloth.

If any AdBlue^®ﬂuid is split or splashed

on to you, wash immediately with cold

water or wipe yourself with a clean

damp cloth.

If the ﬂuid has crystallised, clean it off

using a sponge and hot water.

Starting prevented, having

covered the 650 miles (1 100 km)

At each attempt at starting, the alert is

activated and the message "Emissions

fault: Starting prevented" is displayed.

Containers (5 or 10 litres) and

bottles (1.89 litres) of AdBlue^®

Please check the use-by date.

Read the instructions on the label.

Ensure that you have a suitable

ﬁller pipe, which may or may not be

supplied with the container.

AdBlue^®

Keep AdBlue^®out of the

reach of children, in its original

container.

The SCR system includes an

AdBlue^®tank heater that ensures

operation of the vehicle in normal

conditions.

Never transfer AdBlue^®to another

container: it would loose its purity.

Never dilute the ﬂuid with water.

Never pour the ﬂuid into the Diesel fuel

tank.

In exceptional situations, such as when

the vehicle is kept at temperatures

below -15°C (5°F) for a long period,

there may be an emission fault alert

related to freezing of the AdBlue^®

additive.

Park the vehicle in an area at a more

moderate temperature for a few hours

until the AdBlue^®becomes a ﬂuid

again.

The emissions warning lamp does not

go off immediately, but does so after a

few miles of driving.

Filling

Recommendations on storage

Ensure that the vehicle is parked on a

ﬂat and level surface.

Never store containers or bottles of

AdBlue^®in your vehicle.

Pour the contents of the container /

bottle into the dedicated tank.

Freezing of the AdBlue^®

AdBlue^®freezes at about -11°C (12.2° F)

and deteriorates above 25°C (77°F).

After ﬁlling the AdBlue^®tank, observe

the following procedure:

-

Switch on the ignition without

starting.

Wait 10 seconds before starting the

engine.

It is recommended that containers and

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.

-

Never dispose of empty AdBlue^®

containers and bottles in the

household waste.

Additive that has been frozen can

be used once it has thawed out in

ambient air.

Place them in a special container

provided this purpose or take them to

your dealer.

6. Refitting the repaired wheel

FITTING THE WHEEL

TRIM

The wheel is reﬁtted as described in

step 5, not forgetting to reﬁt the wheel

trim.

The tyre valve must be centred in the

wheel trim cut-out.

This position is essential for ﬁtting the

wheel trim correctly on the steel wheel.

(If the valve is not correctly aligned with

the cut-out, the anti-rotation system

will be in contact with the heads of the

wheel bolts and risks being damaged

if the user persists in ﬁtting the wheel

trim in this incorrect position).

Refer to the "Identiﬁcation

markings" section of chapter 9 to

locate the tyre label.

Refer to the "Instruments and

controls" section of chapter 3,

"Tyre under-inﬂation detection"

part, for recommendations after

changing a wheel ﬁtted with a tyre

under-inﬂation detection sensor.

-

Ensure that all of the clips are

engaged except the last one

(opposite the valve hole).

-

Ensure that the outer edge of

the wheel trim is not deformed or

pushed into the wheel:

● Correct position for the edge of

the wheel trim.

● Incorrect position for the edge of

the wheel trim.

-

Strike the wheel trim with the palm

of your hand, opposite the valve

in the area of the last ﬁxing clip

(always in the direction of clipping).

incorrectly.

Observe the wheel trim ﬁtting

procedure, so as to avoid

breaking the ﬁxing clip and

deformation at the edge of the

wheel trim.

Snow screen

Removal

REMOVABLE SNOW SCREEN

(BLANKING COVER)

Fitting

-

Offer up the snow screen facing its

centring pin A on the front bumper.

Put it in place by pressing at each

clip B located in the four corners.

-

Pass a screwdriver into the hole

located near each of the clips.

Use the screwdriver as a lever to

unclip the four clips B in turn.

According to country, the removable

snow screen is installed on the lower

part of the front bumper to prevent the

accumulation of snow at the radiator

cooling fan.

Do not forget to remove the

snow screen when the exterior

temperature is higher than 10°C

(no risk of snowfall) and when

towing.

Snow chains

SNOW CHAINS

In wintry conditions, snow chains

improve traction as well as the

behaviour of the vehicle when braking.

Use only the chains designed to be

ﬁtted to the type of wheel ﬁtted to your

vehicle:

Advice on installation

F If you have to ﬁt the chains during

a journey, stop the vehicle on a ﬂat

surface on the side of the road.

F Apply the parking brake and

position any wheel chocks to

prevent movement of your vehicle.

F Fit the chains following the

instructions provided by the

manufacturer.

F Stop your vehicle and check that

the snow chains are correctly

tightened.

9 mm

For more information on snow chains,

contact a CITROËN dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop.

It is recommended that before you

leave, you practise ﬁtting the snow

chains on a level and dry surface.

The snow chains must be ﬁtted

only to the driving wheels. They

must never be ﬁtted to "space-

saver" type spare wheels.

Take account of the legislation in

force in your country on the use

of snow chains and the maximum

running speed authorised.

Avoid driving with chains on roads

that have been cleared of snow,

to avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres

and the road surface. If your vehicle

is ﬁtted with alloy wheels, check that

no part of the chain or its ﬁxings is in

contact with the wheel rim.
