The level should be between the marks MIN. and MAX. on the gauge.
Topping up engine oil
Before fi lling, pull out the dipstick.
Check the dipstick after fi lling.
It must never exceed the maxi-mum.
Screw the cap back on and close the bonnet.
Quality: See the Maintenance Guide.If opening the bonnet when the engine is hot, even if it is stopped and the ignition is switched off, remember that the cooling fan may operate at any moment.
Radiator – coolant fl uid
Checking the level and topping up with fl uid must always be done with the engine cold.
Engine hot
Release the protection cover.
Wait 15 minutes or for the temper-ature to be lower than 100°C and then carefully unscrew the cap so as to allow the pressure to drop, protecting yourself with, say, a cloth.
Topping up the coolant
The fl uid level should be between the marks MIN. and MAX. on the header tank.
Top up the level. If you have to put in more than 1 litre, have the cool-ing system checked by a CITROËN in more than 1 litre, have the cool-
dealer.
Make sure that the cap is back on properly.Note: If you need to top up the fl uid frequently, this indicates a malfunc-tion which you should get checked at the earliest opportunity.
Quality: See the Maintenance Guide.
Remark: The cooling fan may operate for around 10 minutes after the engine has stopped.
