In a serious collision, a mechanism  
automatically prevents fuel from  
reaching the engine.  
The Diesel engines are perfectly  
compatible with biofuels which conform  
to current and future European  
standards (Diesel fuel which complies  
with standard EN 590 mixed with a  
biofuel which complies with standard  
EN 14214) available at the pumps  
(containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl  
Ester).

re-priming pump, under the bonnet  
under the protective cover, until fuel  
appears in the transparent pipe,  
-
operate the starter until the engine  
starts.  
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain  
Diesel engines; however, this use  
is subject to strict application of the  
special servicing conditions. Consult a  
CITROËN dealer.  
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel  
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or  
diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly  
prohibited (risk of damage to the
