On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" 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.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
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.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must
be checked, even between two
services.
This system must be 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 units
as important as those in the braking
system, CITROËN selects and offers very
specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness, or
in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency
may be reduced. Make light brake
applications to dry and defrost the brakes.

Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
* Position P for the automatic gearbox
Park the vehicle where it does not block
traffic: the ground must be level, stable
and non-slippery.
Apply the parking brake, switch off the
ignition and engage first gear* so as to
block the wheels.
Check that the parking brake warning
lamp comes on fixed in the instrument
panel.
The occupants must get out of the vehicle
and wait where they are safe.
Make sure that the jack is correctly
positioned at one of the vehicle's jacking
points.
Incorrect use of the jack could cause the
vehicle to collapse.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.
Do not use a jack other than the one
supplied by the manufacturer.
Wheel with hub cap
When removing the wheel
, first remove
the hub cap using the wheelbrace by
pulling at the valve aperture.
When refitting the wheel , after tightening
the wheel bolts, refit the hub cap, starting
by placing its aperture in line with the
valve and then pushing it into place all
round its edge with the palm of your hand.
List of operations
F Remove each wheel bolt covers using the tool 3 (alloy wheels).
F
L
oosen the bolts using wheelbrace 1 o n l y.F
P
lace the foot of jack 2 on the ground and
ensure that it is directly below the front A
or rear B jacking point provided on the
underbody, whichever is closest to the
wheel to be changed.

Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox,
do not try to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle.
Access to the battery Starting using another
battery
When your vehicle's battery is discharged, the
engine can be started using a backup battery
(external or from another vehicle) and jump
leads or a battery booster.
Never try to start the engine by connecting
a battery charger.
Never use a 24V or higher battery booster.
Check beforehand that the backup
battery has a nominal voltage of 12V and
a capacity at least equal to that of the
discharged battery.
The two vehicles must not be in contact
with each other.
Switch off all the electrical consumers
on both vehicles (audio system, wipers,
lighting, etc.).
Make sure that the jump leads are not
close to moving parts of the engine (fan,
belts, etc.).
Do not disconnect the (+) terminal while
the engine is running. F
S
tart the engine of the vehicle with the
good battery and leave it running for a few
minutes.
F
O
perate the starter on the broken down
vehicle and let the engine run.
If the engine does not start straight away,
switch off the ignition and wait a few moments
before trying again.
The battery is located under the bonnet.
To gain access to it:
F
O
pen the bonnet using the interior release
lever, then the exterior safety catch.
F
S
ecure the bonnet stay.
F
R
emove the plastic cover on the (+)
terminal. The battery (-) terminal is not accessible. A
remote earth point is located on the engine.
F
L
ift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if
your vehicle has one.
F
C
onnect the red cable to the positive
terminal (+) of flat battery A (at the metal
elbow) then to the positive terminal (+) of
backup battery B or the booster.
F
C
onnect one end of the green or black
cable to the negative terminal (-) of backup
battery B or the booster (or an earth point
on the other vehicle).
F
C
onnect the other end of the green or black
cable to earth point C on the broken down
vehicle.

Towing the vehicle
Access to the tools
General recommendations
Obser ve the legislation in force in your
c o u nt r y.
Ensure that the weight of the towing
vehicle is greater than that of the towed
vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of
the towed vehicle and must have a valid
driving licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground, always use an approved
towbar; rope and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When the vehicle is towed with its engine
off, there is no longer any braking or
steering assistance.
In the following cases, you must always
call on a professional recovery ser vice:
-
v
ehicle broken down on a motor way or
fast road,
-
f
our-wheel drive vehicle,
-
w
hen it is not possible to put the
gearbox into neutral, unlock the
steering, or release the parking brake,
-
t
owing with only two wheels on the
ground,
-
w
here there is no approved towbar
available.Towing your vehicle
F On the front bumper, unclip the cover by pressing on its left side.
The towing eye is installed in the boot under
t h e f l o o r.
To gain access to it:
F
O
pen the boot.
F
L
ift the floor and remove it.
F
R
emove the towing eye from the holder. F
S
crew the towing eye in fully, until it reaches
a stop.
F
I
nstall the towbar.With a manual gearbox: place the gear
lever in neutral.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector in position N .
Failure to follow this instruction may cause
damage to some components (braking,
powertrain, etc.) and the absence of
braking assistance when the engine is
restarted.
