CHECKS
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance
with the Maintenance and Warranty
Guide and in relation to your en-
gine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Battery The battery does not re-
quire any maintenance.
However, check that the
terminals are clean and
correctly tightened, partic-
ularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the bat-
tery, refer to the "Practical infor-
mation" section for details of the
precautions to be taken before dis-
connecting the battery and following
its reconnection. Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Refer to the Maintenance
and Warranty Guide for
details of the replacement
intervals for these compo-
nents.
Depending on the environment (e.g.
dusty atmosphere) and the use of the
vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them
twice as often if necessary (refer to
the "Engines" paragraph).
A clogged passenger compartment
fi lter may have an adverse effect on
the performance of the air condition-
ing system and generate undesirable
odours.
Oil filter
Replace the oil fi lter each
time the engine oil is
changed. Particulate filter system
(Diesel)
Complementary to the catalytic
converter, this fi lter makes an ac-
tive contribution to the preservation
of air quality by the retaining of the
unburnt pollutant particles. Black
exhaust fumes are thus no longer
emitted.
After prolonged idling or driving at very
low speeds, you may occasionally no-
tice water vapour being emitted from
the exhaust when accelerating. This is
of no consequence to the running of
the vehicle or to the environment.
If there is risk of clogging, a mes-
sage appears on the multifunction
screen, accompanied by a sound
signal and lighting of the service
warning lamp.
This alert tells you that the particle
fi lter is starting to fi ll up (in conditions
of urban driving of exceptionally long
duration: low speeds, traffi c jams
etc.)
To regenerate the fi lter, it is advised
to drive as soon as possible, when
traffi c conditions permit, at a speed
of 40 mph (around 60 km/h) or
more for at least fi ve minutes (until
the alert message disappears).
If this alert persists, consult a CITROËN
dealer.
Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of the
replacement interval for this compo-
nent.

The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1.2 & 2.5 Audio Layer 3,is an audio compression standard which permits the recording of several tens of music fi les on a single disc. The playing and displaying of an MP3 compilation may depend on the recording programme and/or the parameters used.
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording select standards ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet. If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be played correctly. It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible for optimum sound quality. In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is recommended.
The audio equipment will only play fi les with the extension ".mp3". No other type of fi le (.wma, .mp4...) can be played .
It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters without using special characters (e.g.: " " ?; ù) to avoid any pl aying or displaying problems.
