Anti pollution light, I never heard of a Check engine light being called that.
Read on please.

Hello
When the service engine soon light (Also called the check engine light or engine management light) is turned on this is to alert you to the fact that Powertrain Control Module (computer) has detected a failure somewhere in the systems it controls you may not feel any difference in the way the engine runs, this can be the transmission or the engine or emission system, there are fault codes set in the modules memory for these faults. What needs to happen now is to have the powertrain control module scanned with a special tool called an OBD2 electronic engine control scanner or a OBD2 code reader. Once the code(s) are read then you must perform the diagnostics for each code and make the appropriate repairs based on the findings of the diagnosis that was performed, this is called doing "Pinpoint" testing.

2009 Citroen C2 Rhythm. It has no acceleration. Air pollution fault.

Question edited for clarity and spelling of Rhythm.
Question moved to model category.

The car is in Limp Mode. It gives just enough to get you to a garage. The ECM deems the fault can seriously damage the engine and is normally a fault with one of the main sensors. The only way to diagnose is to connect a professional grade scan tool computer to the OBD2 port and read the DTCs (diagnostic trouble codes). They start with a 'P' and have 4 numbers.

Other report the same fault

Hi, have a citroen Ds3 dsport...anti pollution fault, asr/esp, limp mode...need to get out of limp mode to accelerate to clear system... Need help as it's driving me nuts!!!!

the limp mode will not allow you to accelerate until you have fixed the problem and reset the ECM
Limp modes are not there to help ease you frustrations but to prevent costly repairs to the engine and transmission
fix it , reset it then you will have no need to go nuts
