low oil pressure CITROEN C3 AIRCROSS 2022 Owners Manual

7
Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,
as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer, etc.). Preferably, use a
roof box.
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 aperture,
driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-

a
t each change of season,
-

a
fter a long period out of use. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly
(engine oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger
compartment filter, etc.) and obser ve the
schedule of operations recommended in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes
polluting. Visit a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible to
make your vehicle’s level of nitrogen oxide
emissions compliant to the standard.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd
cut-off of the nozzle, to avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after approximately the first 1,850 miles
(3,000
kilometres) that you will see the fuel
consumption settle down to a consistent average.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.

if necessary, adjust the tyre pressures.
F

R
emove the valve cap from the tyre and
keep it in a clean place.
F

U
ncoil the pipe stowed under the

F

S
crew the pipe onto the valve and tighten
f i r m l y.
F

S

tart the compressor by turning the switch
to the " l" position until the pressure of the
tyre reaches 2.0

bars. The sealant product
is injected under pressure into the tyre; do
not disconnect the hose of the valve during
this operation (risk of splatters).
If a pressure of 2

bars is not reached
after about 7

minutes, this indicates
that the tyre is not repairable; contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
for assistance.
