Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Good practice
In order to avoid damaging the
electrical units, we strongly advise you
not to use high pressure washing to clean
the engine compartment.
After washing the vehicle dampness, or in
winter, ice may form on the brake discs and
pads: braking efficiency may be reduced.
Make some light brake applications to dry
and de-ice the brakes. Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as
important as the braking system, CITROËN
selects and offers specific products.

Check and top up the fluid level regularly. Replace the fluid
annually. Replace the fluid if it contains water.

hydraulic system regularly.
Pump and motor
Requires no servicing, the ball bearings are lubricated for life and
the plain bearings by the pumped fluid.
Lubrication
The tipper body and ram pivots do not have grease nipples.
Lubricate regularly the hinges and retainers for the tipper body sides
as well as the catches for the rear tipper body side.
Sub-chassis and tipper body
For maximum life, we recommend that you clean your tipper body
by washing it down regularly with hose.
Touch-in the paint chips quickly to avoid the spread of rust.
After 8 months of use, check the tightening torque of the
fixings of the underbody to the chassis (following the
recommendations of the body converter).
