DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER SYSTEM
In addition to the catalytic converter, this filter contributes actively to the preserving of air quality, by collecting the
polluting particles that have not been burnt off. Black exhaust fumes are thus eliminated.
Clogging of the particle filter
This alert is caused by the particle filter starting to be saturated (in exceptionally prolonged urban driving, for example:
reduced speed, traffic jams, etc.).
To regenerate the filter, it is advised to drive, as soon as possible when traffic conditions permit, at a speed of 60 km/h
or more for at least 5 minutes, until the alert message disappears. If this alert persists, contact a CITROËN dealer.
Note: If the vehicle has been running for long periods at very low speeds or at idle, vapour emissions may be seen
coming from the exhaust under acceleration. These have no consequences for the running of the vehicle or for the
environment.
DIESEL additive level
If the additive level is low, it is necessary to top up the additive level.
Contact a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
