Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; placethe heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,as close as possible to the rear seats.Limit the loads carried in the vehicle andreduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, ...). Use a roof box inpreference.Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aper ture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in par ticular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel.
Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve the schedule of operations recommended by themanufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3rd
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is onlyafter the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Checking levels
There are two marks on thedipstick:A= maximum
If you fill past this mark, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. B= minimum
Never allow the level to fallbelow this mark.
Dipstick
Brake fluid level
The brake fluid level should be close to the
"MA X" mark. If it is not, check the brake pad
w
ear. If a level drops si
gnificantly, have the corresponding system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Check all of these levels re
gularly and top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns).
Oil level
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.
This manual check will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine has
been off for more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two ser vices (or oil changes). CITROËN recommends that you checkthe level, and top up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms). After topping up the oil, the check whenswitching on the ignition with the oillevel indicator in the instrument panelis not valid during the 30 minutes after topping up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for details of the
interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliabilit
y of the engine
and emission control system, the use of
additives in the engine oil is prohibited.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must be the correct grade for your engine and conform to the manufacturer'srecommendations.
Changing the fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for details of the
interval for this operation.

87 Checks
Screenwash fluid level
Top up the level when necessary.
Coolant level
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.
Fluid specifi cation
The brake fluid must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations and meet the
D
OT4 standard.
The coolant level should be close to the "MAX" mark but should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan. This can
operate with the ignition off.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised, wait at least one hour after switching off the engine before carrying out anywork.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.
When the pressure has dropped, remove thecap and top up the level.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be changed.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids
with the skin.
M
ost of these fluids are harmful to health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids intosewers or onto the ground.Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop (France) or to an authorised waste disposal site.

The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check that the terminals
are clean and correctly tightened,
particularly in summer and winter.
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.
Re
fer to the ser vicing booklet for
details of the replacement intervals
for these components.
Dependin
g on the environment (e.g.
dusty atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often if necessary.y A clogged passenger compar tment filter mayhave an adverse effect on the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate undesirable odours.
Replace the oil
filter each time theengine oil is changed.
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for
details of the replacement inter val for
this component.
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for the
details of the level checking intervalfor this component.
The
gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing booklet for
details of the checking inter val for
this component.
Brake wear depends on the st
yle
of driving, par ticularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over shor t
distances. It ma
y 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. For information on checkin
g brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
I
f excessive travel or a loss of effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must be checked, even between two services.
Checking this system must be done by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
