iesel: approximately 42 or 50 litres (depending on version).
Low fuel level Refuelling
When the low fuel level is reached,
this warning lamp in the instrument
panel comes on, accompanied by
an audible warning, a message and
the last bar of the fuel gauge flashes
in red.
To refuel in complete safety:
F

Y

F

O
pen the filler flap.
A label on the inside of the fuel filler flap
reminds you of the type of fuel to use,
depending on your engine type.
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres to
be registered by the fuel gauge.
When it first comes on, about 5 litres of fuel
remain in the tank.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, this
warning lamp appears every time the ignition
is switched on, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message. This audible warning
and message are repeated with increasing
frequency as the fuel level drops towards " 0".
Refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out. Opening the filler cap may result in an inrush of
air. This is entirely normal and results from the
sealing of the fuel system.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start,
never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key, or the START/STOP
button if your vehicle has Keyless Entry
and Starting.

Roof bars
Observe the fitting instructions and the
conditions of use given in the information
provided with the roof bars. For safety reasons and to avoid damaging the
roof, it is essential to use transverse roof bars
that are approved for your vehicle.Maximum load, distributed over the roof
bars, for a loading height not exceeding
40 cm: 70 kg
.
This value is subject to change, please
check the maximum load stated in the
instructions provided with he roof bars.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt the
speed of the vehicle to the profile of the
road to avoid damaging the roof bars
and the fixings on the vehicle.
Please refer to national legislation so as
to meet the requirements on carrying
objects that are longer than the vehicle.
To install the roof bars, you must secure
them only to the four anchorage points in the
roof frame. These points are masked by the
vehicle's doors when closed. The roof bar fixings include a stud that should
be introduced into the aperture at each
anchorage point.
Recommendations
F Distribute the load evenly, avoiding
overloading on one side.
F

A
rrange the heaviest part of the load as
close as possible to the roof.
F

A
nchor the load securely and fit a warning
flag if part of it overhangs the vehicle.
F

D
rive gently, as the vehicle will be more
liable to the effects of side winds (vehicle
stability may be affected).
F

R
emove the roof bars as soon as they are
no longer needed.

indicated by fixed illumination of this
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message that
the particle filter additive level is too
low.Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to

Checking components
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check regularly that the terminals
are correctly tightened (versions without quick
release terminals) and that the connections
are clean.Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Air filter and passenger compartment 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.
Oil filter
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.Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often if
necessary.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.
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.
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.
For more information on Checking levels and
the Diesel additive level in particular, refer to
the corresponding section.
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.
For more information and the precautions to
take before starting work on the 12 V batter y
,
refer to the corresponding section.
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.

peed limit sticker.
Composition of the kit
The speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the
driver's field of vision, to remind you
that a wheel is in temporary use.
The vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair.
This kit is installed in the storage box, under the
boot floor.
Comprising a compressor and a sealant
cartridge, it allows the temporary repair
of
a tyre so that you can drive to the nearest
garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which
could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread
or shoulder.
Temporary puncture repair kit
Access to the kit
Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h) when driving with a tyre
repaired using this type of kit.
Tyre under-inflation detection
After repair of the tyre, the warning
lamp will remain on until the system is
reinitialised.
For more information on Under-
inflation detection , refer to the
