In addition to the catalytic converter, this lter 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 lter
Clogging is caused by the particle
lter starting to be saturated (owing
to exceptionally long periods spent
driving in urban conditions : low
speeds, trafc jams, etc.).
In order to regenerate the lter you
are advised to drive as soon as pos-
sible, when trafc conditions allow,
at a speed of 60 km/h (approx.
37 mph) or more for at least 5 min-
utes. If the problem persists, con-
tact a CITROËN dealer.
Note: If the vehicle has been run-
ning for long periods at very low
speeds or at idle, vapour emis-
sions 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
The simultaneous lighting of the
SERVICE warning lamp and the
display of the message “Risk of
saturation of particle lter (FAP)”
on the instrument panel screen
indicates an increased risk of satu-
ration.
Contact a CITROËN dealer as
soon as possible.
