Warning and indicator lamps
When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched on.
When
the engine is started, these warning
l
amps should go off.
If
they remain on, before moving off, refer to the
i
nformation on the warning lamp in question.
Associated warnings
The illumination, fixed or flashing, of certain warning lamps may be accompanied by an
a
udible signal and the display of a message.

the
braking system, power steering,

as soon as it is safe to do so as there is a risk
t
hat the engine will cut out while driving.
Park,
switch off the ignition and contact a CITROËN

The
temperature of the cooling
s
ystem is too high. Stop
as soon as it is safe to do so.
Wait
until the engine has cooled down before topping

p the level, if necessary.
If
the problem persists, contact a CITROËN dealer or

your vehicle has a screen, a warning
l
amp coming on is always accompanied

When towing
Distribution of loads
F Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to t
he axle and the nose weight approaches the
m
aximum permitted without exceeding it.
Air density decreases with altitude,
thus
r
educing
e
ngine
p
erformance.
A
bove 1 000 metres, the maximum towed
l
oad must be reduced by 10 % for every
1 0
00 metres of altitude.
Side wind
F Take into account the increased sensitivity t
o side wind.
For
more information on weights (and the
t
owed loads which apply to your vehicle) refer
t
o the corresponding section.
F
I
f the warning lamp and the
S
TOP
warning lamp come on,
s
top the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of
e
ngine braking is recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing v
ehicle and of the trailer, observing the
re
commended
p
ressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical lighting and signalling o
n the trailer and the hadlamp beam height
o
f your vehicle.
For
more information on adjusting the
h
eadlamp beam height, refer to the
c
orresponding
s
ection.
The
rear parking sensors will be
d
eactivated automatically if a genuine
C
ITROËN towbar is used.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature of the coolant.
As
the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling
c
apacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
F
T
o lower the engine speed, reduce your
s
peed.
The
maximum towed load on a long incline
d
epends on the gradient and the ambient
t
emperature.
In
all cases, keep a check on the coolant
t
emperature.

Screenwash / headlamp
wash fluid level
Specification of the fluid
To ensure optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing, the fluid should never be topped up or r
eplaced by plain water.
In wintry conditions, the use of a fluid
with
an ethyl alcohol or methanol base is
re
commended.
To

F
R

the
gauge
completely
from
t
he reservoir to read the level in the
transparent
s
ection.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be close
to the "MA X" mark but should never
e
xceed it.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the manufacturer's r ecommendations.
The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might
be caught by the fan blades.
When
the engine is warm, the temperature of
t
he coolant is regulated by the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is
p
ressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying out
any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
b
y two turns to allow the pressure to drop.
W
hen the pressure has dropped, remove the
c
ap and top up the level. F
T
op up if necessary.
F
R
efit the filler cap to the reservoir and
close the bonnet.
