Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check that the terminals are clean
and correctly tightened, particularly in summer
and winter.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the
particle filter is indicated by
the fixed illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a warning message in the
screen (if a display screen is fitted).
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at
least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp
goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a
low additive level.
on a n

ew vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burnt" smell, which
is per fectly normal.
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.
Unless other wise 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.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Oil filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer
to the "Practical information" section for
details of the precautions to be taken before
disconnecting the battery and following its
reconnection.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g.

city driving), replace them 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.

U n d e r - i n fl a t i o n d e t e c t i o n
The under-inflation detection system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver. This system does not avoid the need to check the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel) every month as well as before a long journey. Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs road holding, extends braking distances and causes premature tyre wear, particularly under arduous condition (high loading, high speed, long journey).
The inflation pressures defined for your vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label. See the "Identification markings" section. Tyre pressures should be checked when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds). Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown on the label.
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases fuel consumption.
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures in the four tyres, once the vehicle is moving. It compares the information given by the four wheel speed sensors with reference values, which must be reinitialised ever y time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed . The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or more tyres.
