CHECKS






CHECKING LEVELS

















Oil level


Oil specifi cation
The oil must be the correct grade
for your engine and conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.










Brake fl uid level

Changing the fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for de-
tails of the interval for this operation.

Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations
and meet the DOT4 standard.


The check is carried out ei-
ther when the ignition is
switched on using the oil lev-
el indicator on the instrument
panel, or using the dipstick.
This manual check will only be cor-
rect 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 lev-
el between two services (or oil
changes). CITROËN recommends
that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles
(5 000 kms). The brake fl uid level should
be close to the "MAX" mark.
If it is not, check the brake
pad wear.
In order to maintain the re-
liability of the engine and
emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine
oil is prohibited.

Take care when working
under the bonnet, as cer-
tain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk
of burns).











Power steering fl uid level
The power steering fl uid
level should be close to the
"MAX" mark. With the en-
gine cold, unscrew the cap
to check the level.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have
the corresponding system checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Check all of these levels regularly
and top them up if necessary, unless
otherwise indicated.

Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for de-
tails of the interval for this operation. After topping up the oil, the check
when switching on the ignition with
the oil level indicator in the instru-
ment panel is not valid during the
30 minutes after topping up.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
CHANGING A FUSE

Before replacing a fuse:


- the cause of the failure must be
identifi ed and corrected,

- all electrical consumers must be
switched off,

- your vehicle must be stationary,
ignition off.
Identify the failed fuse by reference
to the tables and diagrams below.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

Before disconnecting


)
Go to the battery.

)
Check that all of the openings -
doors, boot... - are closed but not
locked.

)
Wait at least four minutes after
switching off the ignition.
Charging


)
Disconnect the (+) terminal.

)
Follow the instructions on use
provided by the manufacturer of
the charger.

)
Connect the red cable of the
charger to the (+) post of the bat-
tery, then the black cable to the
(-) terminal.

)
Once charging is complete, dis-
connect the charger cables in re-
verse order.
The charging operation
must be carried out in a
well ventilated area and
well away from naked fl ames and
sources of sparks, so as to avoid
any risk of explosion and fi re.
Do not try to charge a frozen bat-
tery; the battery must fi rst be
thawed out to avoid any risk of ex-
plosion. If the battery has frozen,
before charging, have it checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop, who will ensure that
the internal components have not
been damaged and that the casing
is not cracked, which would intro-
duce the risk of a leak of toxic and
corrosive acid.



Charging the battery using
a battery charger
If the battery of your vehicle is fl at
or prior to taking the vehicle out of
service for an extended period, you
can charge the battery using a bat-
tery charger.
For information on the specifi cation
of battery chargers compatible with
your battery, refer to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
It is recommended that the battery
be disconnected if the vehicle is not
be used for more than a month.
Reinitialisation after
reconnection

After any reconnection of the bat-
tery, switch on the ignition and wait
at least one minute before starting,
to allow time for the initialisation of
the electronic systems.
By referring to the corresponding
sections, you should set or initialise
the following systems yourself:


- the date and time,

- the anti-pinch on the driver's
electric window and the sunroof.

- the panoramic sunroof blind,

- the multifunction screen set-
tings,

- the audio system or navigation
system settings,
Check that there no error message
or warning lamp comes on after
switching on the ignition.
However, if minor problems persist
after carrying out these operations,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the duration
of use of certain functions to conserve
a suffi cient level of charge in the
battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
and telematics system, windscreen
wipers, dipped beam headlamps,
courtesy lamps, etc. for a maximum
combined duration of thirty minutes.


Switching to economy mode

Once this period has elapsed, a
message appears on the multi-func-
tion screen indicating that the vehi-
cle has switched to economy mode
and the active functions are put on
standby.
If a telephone call is being made at
this time:


- it will be maintained for 10 minu-
tes with your Audio system or
MyWay hands-free system

- it will be maintained for 10 minu-
tes with the NaviDrive, then it will
transfer to your telephone de-
pending on its model.



Exiting economy mode

These functions are reactivated au-
tomatically next time the vehicle is
started.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let
it run for at least 5 minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the
engine from starting (refer
to the corresponding para-
graph).
This period may be reduced con-
siderably if the battery is not fully
charged.

TA


RDS, if displayed, allows you to continue listening to the same station by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be
assured throughout the entire country as radio stations do notcover 100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception of
the station during a journey.
The external environment (hill, building, tunnel, underground car park...)may interfere with the reception, including in RDS following mode. This phenomenon is a normal result of the way in which radio waves are
transmitted and does not in any way indicate a failure of the audio equipment.

QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
TA is selected. However, certain traffi c jams
along the route are not
indicated in real time.
On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive the
traffi c information. Wait until the traffi c information is being received correctly (displaying of the traffi c information symbols on the map).
In certain countries, onl
y major routes (motorways...) are listed for the
traffi c information. This phenomenon is normal. The system is
dependent on the traffi c information available.
I receive a speed camera
alert for a camera which
is not on my route.The s
ystem announces all speed cameras located in a conical zoneforward of the vehicle. It may detect speed cameras on nearby or parallel roads. Zoom the map to view the exact position o
f thespeed camera.

The audible speedcamera alert is not
working.
Audible alerts are not active. Activate audible alerts in Navigation Menu, Settings, Set parameters for risk areas.
Th
e alert volume level is set to minimum. Increase the speed camera alert volume.

The altitude is not displayed. On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes toreceive more than 3 satellites correctly. Wait until the system has started up completely. Check that there is a GPS coverage of at least
3 satellites (long press on the SETUP button, then select GPS coverage).
Dependin
g on the geographical environment (tunnel...) or the weather,
the conditions of reception of the GPS signal may vary. This phenomenon is normal. The system is
dependent on the conditions of reception of the
GPS si
gnal.
Th
e route is notcalculated successfully.The exclusion criteria may confl ict with the current location (exclusion of
toll roads on a motorway with tolls). Check the exclusion criteria.
