Top up the level. If the top up requires more than 1 litre, contact a CITROËN dealer.requires more than 1 litre, requires more
Make sure that the cap is back on properly.Note:If you need to top up the fl uid frequently, this indicates a malfunction which you should get checked at the earliest opportu-nity.

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.
