CITROEN C4 Handbook

Citroën and Total

A partnership of expertise

For 39 years, the research teams of Citroën and Total have combined their know-how to offer you the best engine/lubricant combination available. Cutting edge technology for your benefit. With Total, you can be sure to have chosen the benchmark oil that best guarantees your Citroën’s performance and life-ex- pectancy.

A partnership for the environment

Total oils support CiTROën’s advances in fuel economy, and C02 and harmful emission reductions.

The development of new generation oils specially adapted for Particle Filters, like TOTAL ACTIVA/QUARTZ INEO ECS can reduce C02 emissions by a tonne* and save a tank of fuel each year**.

*Official C02 emissions reduction of 4 g per km (approx. 6 g per mile). Corresponds to a reduction in C02 emissions of 1 tonne throughout the life of the vehicle, on a private diesel vehicle with an average life expectancy estimated at 250 000 km (approx. 160 000 miles). Source: TOTAL.

**Or 30 L, average quantity of fuel required to fill a tank at a petrol station. Result obtained using TOTAL ACTIVA/ QUARTZ INEO ECS oil instead of a traditional 15W-40 oil, on a CITROËN C4 1.6 HDi, whose average fuel consumption is 58.9 mpg (4.8 L/100 km), travelling 18 000 km (approx. 12 000 miles) per year. Source: TOTAL

A partnership of success

Competitive successes in the national rallies of the World Rally Championship bear testament to the performance and efficiency of the Citroën – Total partnership.

"Foot-on-brake" starting warning lamp for

(6 speed) Electronic Gearbox System

During the engine starting phase, this flashes if you are not pressing the brake pedal.

See "(6 speed) Electronic Gearbox System".

This warning lamp may flash in the instrument panel to remind you to apply the brake when engaging reverse gear.

To regenerate the filter, you are advised to drive, as soon as traffic conditions permit, at a speed of

60 km/h (40 mph) or more for at least 5 minutes (until the warning message disappears).

If this alert persists, consult a CITROËN dealer.

Observation: After prolonged idling or driving at very low speeds, you may occasionally notice water vapour being emitted from the exhaust when accelerating. This is of no consequence to the running of the vehicle or to the environment.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER SYSTEM

Complementary to the catalytic converter, this filter makes an active contribution to the preservation of air quality by the retaining of the unburnt pollutant particles. Black exhaust fumes are thus no longer emitted.

Clogging of the particle filter

The SERVICE warning lamp and a message in the instrument panel are displayed indicating that

the particulate filter is starting to become clogged (exceptionally prolonged urban driving conditions: reduced speed, traffic congestion…).

Diesel fuel additive level

If the additive level is low, a message appears in the multifunction screen, accompanied by

an audible signal and illumination of the SERVICE warning lamp: it is necessary to have the additive level topped up. Contact a CIT ROËN dealer as soon as possible.
