LEVELS
Oil change
This must be carried out at the  intervals   specified   in   the  
manufacturer's

  servicing   schedule.  
Ask
 
for

  advice   from   a   CITROËN   dealer.
Remove
  the   dipstick   before   filling.
Check
  the   level   after   filling   (never  
exceed

  the   max   mark).
Refit
  the   oil   filler   cap   before   closing   the  
bonnet.
Changing the brake fluid
The brake fluid must be changed at the intervals stated, according to the
manufacturer's  servicing   schedule.
Use
  fluids   recommended   by   the  
manufacturer

,   which   meet   the   DOT4  
standard.
The

  level   must   be   between   the   MIN  
and

  MAX   marks   on   the   reservoir.
If
  fluid   has   to   be   added   frequently,  
this

  indicates   a   fault   which   must   be  
checked

  by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or  
a

  qualified   workshop   as   soon   as  
possible.
Warning lamps
 If you have to remove / refit the engine style cover, handle it with
care
  to   avoid   damaging   the   fixing  
clips.
Oil level
It is recommended that the oil level be checked  every   3   000   miles   (5   000   km)  
and topped up if necessary between oil
changes.
Check

  the   level   with   the   vehicle   level,  
engine

  cold,   using   the   dipstick.
Dipstick
Viscosity selection
In
  all   cases,   the   oil   selected   must  
meet

  the   requirements   specified   in   the  
manufacturer's

  service   schedule.
These
  regular   maintenance  
operations

  will   keep   your   vehicle  
in

  good   working   order.  
Ask
  for  
advice

  from   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   refer  
to

  the   maintenance   and   warranty   guide  
in

  the   handbook   pack.
Checks   using   the   warning  
lamps

  in   the   instrument   panel  
is described in chapter 3,
"Instruments

  and   controls"  
section.
There

  are   two   marks   on  
the

  dipstick:
A

If
  you   fill   past   this   mark,

workshop.

  systems,   the   use  
of additives in engine oil
is

  prohibited.

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).
d

uring 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 CITR

o Ë n 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 and headlamp
wash 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.
If
  your   vehicle   is   fitted   with   headlamp  
washers, the capacity of the reservoir
is

  6   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 CITR

o Ë n 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,
 
...).

o

n acceleration after the vehicle has
been running for a prolonged period
at
  very   low   speed   or   at   idle,   you   may,  
in

  exceptional   circumstances,   notice  
the

  emission   of   water   vapour   at   the  
exhaust.

 
This
  water   vapour   does   not  
have any adverse ef

handling
  or   the   environment.
Battery
At the start of summer or winter, have your  battery   checked   by   a   CITROËN  
dealer

  or   a   qualified   workshop.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
  It   may   be   necessary   to  
check

  the   thickness   of   the   pads,   even  
between

  services.
Unless
  there   is   a   leak   on   the   circuit,   a  
drop

  in   the   brake   fluid   level   indicates  
that

  the   brake   pads   are   worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake disc  /   drum   wear,   contact   a   CITROËN  
dealer

.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great or there is a reduction in the
performance
  of   the   system,   the   parking
 brake

  should   be   adjusted,   even   between
 services.
Have

  the   system   checked   by   a   CITROËN
 dealer

  or   a   qualified   workshop.
