According to country.
Automatic switching off
When the lights stalk is at "dipped head-
lamps or main beam headlamps", if the
ignition switch is at "LOCK" or "ACC" or
if the key has been removed from the
ignition switch, the lights switch off auto-
matically when the driver's door is
opened
.
On vehicles which are equipped with day-
time running lamps, the dipped beam head-
lamps come on when the vehicle is started.
This warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel.
The instruments and controls (instrument
panel, multifunction screen, air condition-
ing control panel, ...) are illuminated. The sidelamps and the dipped beam
headlamps come on automatically, with-
out any action on the part of the driver,
if a low level of exterior light is detected
or if the wipers are switched on.
When the light returns to a suffi cient
level or the wipers are switched off, the
lighting is switched off automatically.
The sensor is located at the base of the
windscreen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop to adjust the sensitivity of the sensor.
In foggy weather or in snow, the
sunshine sensor may detect suf-
fi cient light. The lighting will not
come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, the
associated functions will no longer be
controlled.
The sensitivity of the automatic illumina-
tion of headlamps can be confi gured via
the colour screen "Equipment" menu.

CHECKS

CHECKING LEVELS
Brake fluid level
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.
Oil level
The reading will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for
more than 30 minutes.
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the oil
level indicator on the instrument panel,
or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the engine oil between
services. The manufacturer recommends
that the oil level be checked, and topped up
if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 km).
The brake fl uid level should be
between the "MAX" and "MIN"
marks.
If it is not, check the brake pad
wear.
Changing the brake fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
Coolant level
The coolant level must be mea-
sured when the engine is cold
and should be between the
"LOW" and "FULL" marks.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is regulated
by the fan. This can operate with the ig-
nition off.
On vehicles which are fi tted with a
particle emission fi lter, the fan may
operate after the vehicle has been
switched off, even if the engine is
cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash * fluid
Check the fl uid level regularly,
using the gauge.
*
According to country.
Changing the engine oil
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must correspond to your engine
and conform to the manufacturer's recom-
mendations.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and
fulfi l the DOT4 standards.
Changing the coolant fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for details
of the interval for this operation.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.
Fluid specifi cation
This fl uid must conform to the manufac-
turer's recommendations for optimum
cleaning.
Power steering fluid level
Check the fl uid level with the engine at
idle.
Check that the power steering fl uid
level is always between the "MAX" and
"MIN" marks and top up if necessary.
Fluid specifi cation
This fl uid must conform to the manufac-
turer's recommendations.
Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
When working under the bonnet, take
care as certain areas of the engine may
be extremely hot (risk of burns).
