the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 15 minutes.
Oil level correct
Oil level low
This is indicated by the fl ashing of

"OIL" , accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the multi-

If the low oil level is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, it is essential
that the level is topped up to prevent
damage to the engine. Oil level gauge fault
This is indicated by the fl ashing of

"OIL --" . Contact a CITROËN dealer.
Dipstick
Refer to the "Checks" section to
locate the dipstick and the oil fi ller

level via the oil fi ller
cap, using the type
of oil suited to your
engine.
Following this operation, if you wish
to disconnect the battery, lock the
