Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in
accordance with the manufacturer's service
schedule. Top them up if required, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
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 reserved
for this purpose at a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The level is checked, with the engine having been switched off for at least 30
minutes and on level ground, either using the oil
level indicator in the instrument panel when the

Practical information
7Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap
and top up to the required level.
Vehicle with electric motorDo not top up the coolant.
If the level is close to or below
the "MIN" mark, it is essential to contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when necessary.
Capacity of the tank:
–

5.3 litres for "very cold climate" versions.
–


2.2 litres for other versions.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a pre-mixed
product.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid
containing an anti-freeze agent which is
appropriate for the temperature conditions
must be used in order to protect the system's
components (pump, tank, ducts, jets).
Filling with pure water is prohibited in all
circumstances (risk of freezing,
limescale, etc.).
Diesel fuel additive (Diesel
with particle filter)
On reaching the minimum level in
the particle filter additive tank, one
of these warning lamps comes on fixed,
accompanied by an audible signal and a warning
message.
Topping up
The topping up of this additive must be carried
out quickly.
Visit a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
AdBlue® (BlueHDi)
An alert is triggered when the reserve 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 in
accordance with regulations, you must top up the
AdBlue tank.
For more information on AdBlue
® (BlueHDi),
and in particular 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.
Otherwise, 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.
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
battery, refer to the corresponding section.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery with
special technology and specifications.
Its replacement should be carried out only by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

Practical information
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
necessary .
A clogged passenger compartment filter
can adversely affect air conditioning
system performance 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
necessary .
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the engine
oil is changed.
Particle filter (Diesel)
/ The start of clogging of the
particle filter is indicated by the
temporary lighting of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an alert message.
As soon as traffic conditions allow, regenerate
the filter by driving at a speed of at least 37
mph
(60

km/h), with an engine speed above 2,500
rpm, for about 15 minutes (until the warning lamp
goes out).
If it is not possible to reach 37 mph (60 km/h),
leave the engine running at idle for about 15
minutes, then drive with an engine speed
above
2,500 rpm for 15 minutes.
Do not switch off the engine until the filter
is fully regenerated; repeated intervals
can degrade the engine oil prematurely.
Regenerating the filter while the vehicle is
stationary is not recommended.
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
water vapour coming from the exhaust while
accelerating. These emissions have no
impact on the vehicle’s behaviour and the
environment.
New vehicle
During the first few particle filter
regeneration operations, you may notice a
"burning" smell. This is perfectly 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).
Drive selector
The drive selector does not require any maintenance.
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.
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may
be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and
defrost them.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc
wear, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Advice on care and maintenance
General recommendations
Observe the following recommendations to avoid
damaging the vehicle.
Exterior
Never use a high-pressure jet wash in
the engine compartment - risk of
damaging the electrical components!
Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or
extremely cold conditions.
When washing the vehicle in an
automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure
to lock the doors and, depending on version,
move the electronic key away.
When using a pressure washer, keep the jet
nozzle at a minimum distance of 30 cm from
the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas
containing chipped paint, sensors or seals).
Promptly clean up any stains containing
chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's
paintwork (including tree resin, bird
droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar).
Depending on the environment, clean the
vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits
(in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas)
and mud/salts (in wet or cold areas). These
substances can be highly corrosive.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for advice on removing stubborn
stains requiring special products (such as tar
or insect removers).
Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

In the event of a breakdown
All of these tools are specific to your vehicle and may vary depending on
equipment.
Do not use them for any other purposes.
The jack must only be used to change a wheel with a damaged or punctured tyre.
The jack does not require any maintenance.
The jack meets European standards, as
defined in the Machinery Directive 2006/42/
EC.
Some parts of the jack such as the
screws and hinges could cause injury:
avoid touching them.
Carefully remove any traces of grease.
Temporary puncture repair kit
Scan the QR Code on page 3 to view
explanatory videos.
Made up of a compressor and a sealant
cartridge,
it allows you to carry out a temporary
repair of the tyre so that you can drive to the
nearest garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures located
on the tyre tread.
The vehicle's electric system allows the connection of the compressor to the 12 V
power supply for long enough to repair a tyre
after a puncture.
Only the 12 V socket located at the front
of the vehicle can be used to power the
compressor.
For more information on the Tool kit,
refer to the corresponding section.
Repair procedure
Do not remove any foreign body
(e.g. nail, screw) which has penetrated
the tyre.
â–º

Park the vehicle without obstructing traffic
and apply the parking brake.

Event data recorders
13Event data recorders
Electronic control units are installed in your
vehicle. Control units process data which is
received by vehicle sensors, for example, or
which they generate themselves or exchange
amongst themselves. Some control units are
necessary for the safe functioning of your
vehicle, others assist you while you drive (driver
assistance systems), while others provide
comfort or infotainment functions.
The following contains general information about
data processing in the vehicle. You will find
additional information as to which specific data is
uploaded, stored and passed on to third parties
and for what purpose in your vehicle under
the key word Data Protection closely linked
to the references for the affected functional
characteristics in the relevant owner's manual
or in the general terms of sale. These are also
available online.
Vehicle operating data
The control units process the data used for the
operation of the vehicle.
This data includes, for example:
–
Information about the state of the vehicle
(e.g.

speed, travel time, lateral acceleration,
wheel rotation rate, fastened seat belts display).
–

Environmental conditions (e.g.
temperature,
rain sensor, distance sensor).
As a general rule, this data is temporary, is
not stored for longer than one operating cycle and is only used within the vehicle itself. The
control units often record this data (including the
vehicle's key). This function allows either the
temporary or permanent storage of information
about the state of the vehicle, stresses on
components, servicing requirements, as well as
events and technical errors.
Depending on the vehicle's equipment level, the
data stored is as follows:
–

Operating state of system components
(e.g.
filling level, tyre pressures, battery charge
status).
–
Faults and malfunctions in important system
components (e.g.
lamps, brakes).
–
System reactions in specific driving situations
(e.g.
deployment of an airbag, triggering of
stability control and braking systems).
–
Information about events which have
damaged the vehicle.
–

For electric and rechargeable hybrid vehicles,
the traction battery charge level and the
estimated driving range.
In particular circumstances (e.g.
if the vehicle
has detected a malfunction), it may be necessary
to record data which would otherwise simply not
be stored.
When taking your vehicle in for servicing
(e.g.
repairs, maintenance), the stored operating
data may be read along with the vehicle's
identification number and used if necessary.
The personnel working for the servicing network
(e.g.
garages, manufacturers) or third parties
(e.g.
roadside assistance agents) may read the vehicle's data. This also applies to work
carried out under warranty and quality assurance
measures.
This data is generally read via the OBD
(On-Board Diagnostics) port fitted by law to
the vehicle. It is used to report on the technical
state of the vehicle or its components and
facilitates the diagnosis of malfunctions, in
compliance with warranty obligations and for
quality improvement. This data, in particular the
information relating to stress on components,
technical events, operator errors and other
malfunctions, is sent to the Manufacturer, if
necessary, along with the vehicle's identification
number. The Manufacturer's liability may also be
engaged. The Manufacturer may also use the
operating data taken from the vehicle for product
recalls. This data may also be used to check the
customer's warranty and any claims made under
warranty.
Any malfunctions stored in the vehicle may be
reset by an after-sales service company during
servicing or repair work, or at your request.
Comfort and infotainment
functions
Comfort settings and personalised settings
may
be saved in the vehicle and modified or
reinitialised at any time.
Depending on the vehicle's equipment level,
this
may
include:
–

Seat and steering wheel position settings.
