SERVICE INDICATOR
This programmes service intervals
according  to   the   use   of   the   vehicle.More than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due
Example:
  4   800   miles/km   remain  
before

  the   next   service   is   due.   When  
the ignition is switched on and for a
few

  seconds,   the   screen   shows:
A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed
(depending on version), then the total
distance recorder resumes normal
operation showing the total and trip
distances.
Less than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due
Each time the ignition is switched on and for a few
seconds,   the   spanner   flashes   and   the   number   of miles/kilometres

  remaining   is   displayed:
A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed
(depending on version), then the total
distance recorder resumes normal
operation
  and   the   spanner   remains   on.  
This indicates that a service should be
carried

  out   shortly.
Service overdue
Operation
A few moments after the ignition
has been switched on, the spanner
indicating a service operation comes
on; the display for the total distance
recorder
 
gives
 
(in
 
round
 
figures)
 
the
 
distance remaining before the next
service.
The points at which a service is due
are calculated from the last indicator
zero

 
reset.
The point at which a service is due is
determined
 
by
 
two
 
parameters:
-

the distance travelled,
-


the time which has elapsed since
the

 
last
 
service.
The distance remaining before the
next service may be weighted by
the time factor, depending on the
type
 
of
 
driving. With the engine running the spanner
remains on until the service has been
carried
  out.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, this
alert
  is   also   accompanied   by   the   fixed  
illu

mination of the Service warning
lamp,
  on   switching   on   the   ignition.
Each time the ignition is
switched on and for a few
seconds, the spanner
flashes
  and   the   excess  
distance

  is   displayed.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
spanner can also come on early,
according the level of deterioration
of
  the   engine   oil.   Deterioration   of   the  
engine oil depends on the conditions of
use

  of   the   vehicle.

Cooling system
Only use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.
Otherwise,
  you   risk   seriously   damaging  
your

  engine.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is controlled
by
  the   engine   fan.  
As
  this   fan   can  
operate

  with   the   ignition   key   removed  
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying

  out   any   work.
Slacken
  the   cap   by   1/4   of   a   turn   to  
release the pressure to prevent any
risk

  of   scalding.   When   the   pressure  
has dropped, remove the cap and top
up

  the   level   with   coolant.
If
  fluid   has   to   be   added   frequently,  
this indicates a fault which must be
checked

  by   a   CITROËN   dealer   as  
soon

  as   possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground  with   the   engine   cold.   Unscrew  
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check

  the   level   which   must   be   between  
the

  MIN   and   MAX   marks. In
  order   to   regenerate   the   filter,   you  are advised to drive at a speed higher
than
  40   mph   (60   km/h)   for   at   least   five  minutes as soon as possible, when
traffic
  conditions   permit   (until   the  
message disappears and the service
warning

  lamp   goes   off).
During regeneration of the particle
emission
  filter,   the   noise   of   a   relay  
operating may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and
if the service warning lamp remains
on, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified

  workshop.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN
and
 
MAX
 
marks
 
on
 
the
 
expansion
 
bottle.

 
If
 
more
 
than
 
1
 
litre
 
of
 
fluid
 
is
 
required to top up the level, have the
system

 
checked
 
by
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer
 
or

 
a
 
qualified
 
workshop.
Screenwash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products   of   the   CITROËN   range.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing,
  this   fluid   must   not   be   topped  
up

  or   replaced   with   plain   water.
Capacity
  of   the   screenwash   reservoir:  
approximately

  3   litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a  CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
workshop

  without   delay.
Waste products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with  the   skin.
Brake
  fluid   is   harmful   to   health   and  
very

  corrosive.
Do
  not   dispose   of   used   oil,   brake   fluid  
or coolant into drains or into the ground
but into the containers dedicated to this
use at a CITROËN dealer (France) or
an

  authorised   waste   disposal   site.
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the service
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen.
When this occurs with the engine
running it is due to the start of
saturation
 
of
 
the
 
particle
 
filter
 
(exceptionally prolonged urban type
driving

 
conditions:
 
low
 
speed,
 
long
 
traffic

 
jams,
 
...).
