Practical information

192
The fluids must comply with the
manufacturer's requirements and with the
vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the bonnet,
as certain areas of the engine may be
extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even
with the ignition off).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health
and very corrosive.Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers
reser ved for this purpose at a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The oil level is checked on a level
sur face with the engine stopped for
at least 30 minutes, either using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel when the ignition is switched
on (for vehicles equipped with an
electric gauge), or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
ser vices (or oil changes). It is recommended
that you check the level, and top up if
necessary, every 3,000
miles (5,000 km).
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emissions control system,
never use additives in the engine oil.

AdBlue (BlueHDi)
An alert is triggered once the reser ve level is
reached.
For more information on the Indicators and in
particular the AdBlue range indicators, refer to
the corresponding section.
To avoid the vehicle being immobilised as per
regulations, you must top up the AdBlue tank.
For more information on AdBlue
® (BlueHDi) ,
and in particular on the supply of AdBlue, refer
to the corresponding section.
Checks
Unless otherwise indicated, check these
components in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule and according
to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop. Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, CITROËN selects and
offers very specific products.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release
terminals) and that the connections
are clean.
For more information on the precautions to
take before any work on the 12
V batter y,
refer to the corresponding section.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12
V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Passenger compartment filter
Depending on the environment and
the use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty
atmosphere, city driving), change it
twice as often if necessar y .
A clogged passenger compartment
filter may have an adverse effect on
the per formance of the air conditioning
system and generate undesirable odours.
Air filter
Depending on the environment and
the use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty
atmosphere, city driving), change it
twice as often if necessar y .
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Practical information

195
Particle filter (Diesel)
or The start of saturation of the particle
filter is signalled by the temporary
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by a message warning
of the risk of the filter clogging up.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates
a low Diesel additive level.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does not
affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the
environment. New vehicle
The first particle filter regeneration
operations may be accompanied by a
"burning" smell, which is per fectly normal.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle
services.Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at
least 37 mph (60

km/h) until the warning lamp
goes off. After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
Brake disc/drum wear
For any information on checking
brake disc/drum wear, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be adjusted, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Practical information

196
Wheels and tyres
The pressure must be checked on
all tyres, including the spare wheel,
when the tyres are "cold".
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure
label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have
driven for more than 10
minutes or more
than 6

miles (10 kilometres) at over 31 mph
(50

km/h), add 0.3 bar (30 kPa) to the values
indicated on the label.
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases
fuel consumption. Non-compliant tyre
pressure causes premature wear on tyres
and has an adverse effect on the vehicle's
road holding - risk of an accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces
the braking and road holding per formance of
the vehicle. It is recommended to regularly
check the condition of the tyres (tread and
sidewalls) and wheel rims as well as the
presence of the valves.
Using different size wheels and tyres from
those specified can affect the lifetime of
tyres, wheel rotation, ground clearance, the
speedometer reading and have an adverse
effect on road holding.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without
adversely affecting the per formance or fuel
consumption of its Diesel engines, CITROËN
has taken the decision to equip its vehicles
with a system that associates SCR (Selective
Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel particle filter
(DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR system
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains
urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85%
of nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and
water, which are harmless to health and the
environment.
The AdBlue
® is contained in
a special tank holding about
20


litres. Its capacity allows a driving range of
approximately 4,300
miles (7,000 km)
( highly dependent on your driving style
and the vehicle). An alert system is triggered
automatically when the remaining range
reaches 1,500 miles (2,400 km), i.e. once the
reserve level has been reached.
Several alerts are triggered successively during
the remaining 1,500 miles (2,400 km) before
the tank is empty and the vehicle is disabled.
If the estimated distance travelled by the
vehicle between two ser vices is greater than
3,700 miles (6,000 km), it will be necessary to
top up the AdBlue.
For more information on the Warning
and indicator lamps and the associated
alerts, or the Indicators , refer to the
corresponding sections.
Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles
can cause the ESC to mistime.
Practical information

200
Warning triangle
This safety equipment should be used in
addition to the hazard warning lamps.
Placing the triangle on the
road
Before leaving your vehicle to set up and install
the triangle, switch on the hazard warning
lamps and put on your high visibility vest.
Refer to the manufacturer's instructions on
unfolding and assembly supplied with the
triangle.The triangle is available as an accessory
;
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Running out of fuel
(Diesel)
With Diesel engines, the fuel system must be
primed if you run out of fuel.
Before priming , at least 5
litres of Diesel fuel
must be added to the tank.
For more information on Refuelling and
Misfuel prevention (Diesel) , refer to the
corresponding section.
For all versions other than BlueHDi, the
components are located in the engine
compartment
; they can be found under the
removable cover.
For more information about the Engine
compartment , in particular the location of
these components under the bonnet, refer
to the corresponding section.
