dible signal and a message
that the particle emissions fi l-
ter additive level is too low,
- fi xed illumination of the
service warning lamp, ac-
companied by an audible
signal and a message that
the particle emissions fi lter additive level is too low. or
Screenwash/headlamp wash
level
Specifi cation of the fl uid
To ensure optimum cleaning and to
avoid freezing, the fl uid should never be
topped up or replaced by plain water.
To check the level or top up the

CHECKS
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance with
the servicing booklet and according to
your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Battery
The battery does not require
any maintenance.
However, check that the ter-
minals are clean and correctly
tightened, particularly in sum-
mer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery,
refer to the "Practical information" sec-
tion for details of the precautions to be
taken before disconnecting the battery
and following its reconnection.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the replacement
intervals for these compo-
nents.
Oil filter
Replace the oil fi lter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the replacement
interval for this component.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
According to your version of instrument
panel, the start of saturation of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter is indicated by:
- fi xed illumination of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter warning
lamp, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
that there is a risk of blockage
of the particle emissions fi lter,
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specifi c 12 V lead-acid bat-
tery with special technology and speci-
fi cation, for which the involvement of a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop is required when replacing or dis-
connecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation
may shorten the life of the battery.
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
(refer to
the "Engines" section).
A clogged passenger compartment fi l-
ter may have an adverse effect on the
performance of the air conditioning sys-
tem and generate undesirable odours.
As soon as the traffi c conditions per-
mit, regenerate the fi lter 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, refer to
the "Additive level" section.
On a new vehicle, the fi rst opera-
tions of regeneration of the particle
emissions fi lter may be accom-
panied by the smell of "burning",
which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation
of the vehicle at very low speed
or at idle, you may, in excep-
tional circumstances, notice the
emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This
does not affect the behaviour of
the vehicle or the environment. or
-
temporary illumination of
the service warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message that
there is a risk of blockage of
the particle emissions fi lter.

Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it
does not block traffi c: the ground
must be level, stable and non-
slippery ground.

lamps in the instrument panel
are on (not fl ashing).
The occupants must get out of
the vehicle and wait where they
are safe.
If necessary, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel to be changed.
Never go underneath a vehicle
raised using a jack; use an axle
stand.
*
position R
for the electronic gearbox
system; P
for an automatic gearbox.

mendation may cause premature
wear of the battery. Procedure for charging your battery
when it is fl at or for starting the engine
using another battery.
After refi tting the battery, the
Stop & Start system will only be
active after a continuous period
of immobilisation of the vehicle,
a period which depends on the
climatic conditions and the state
of charge of the battery (up to
about 8 hours).
)

When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground, always use an
approved towing bar; rope and straps are prohibited.
When towing a vehicle with the engine off, there is no longer any power as-
sistance for braking or steering.
In the following cases, you must always call on a professional recovery
service:
- vehicle broken down on a motorway or fast road,
- when it is not possible to put the gearbox into neutral, unlock the steering,
or release the parking brake,
- towing with only two wheels on the ground,
- where there is no approved towing bar available...

The names of tracks and
the track length are not
displayed on the screen
when streaming audio. The Bluetooth profi le does not allow the transfer of this information.
The quality of reception of
the radio station listened
to gradually deteriorates
or the stored stations do
not function (no sound,
87.5 Mhz is displayed...). The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened
to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the
vehicle is travelling. Activate the "RDS" function by means of the
short-cut menu to enable the system to check
whether there is a more powerful transmitter in
the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block
reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not
indicate a fault with the audio system.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going
through a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
I cannot fi nd some radio
stations in the list of
stations received. The station is not received or its name has changed in the list.
Some radio stations send other information in place of their name (the
title of the song for example).
The system interprets this information as the name of the station. The name of the radio
station changes.
