There   is   a   fault   with   the   engine  l
ubrication   system.You
  must   stop   as   soon   it   is   safe   to   do   so.
Park,   switch   off   the   ignition   and   contact   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
Battery charge
fixed. The   battery   charging   circuit   has   a  
f

ault   (dirty   or   loose   terminals,   slack   or  
c

ut   alternator   belt,   ...).
The   warning   lamp   should   go   off   when   the   engine   is  
s

tarted.
If   it   does   not   go   off,   contact   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
q

ualified

temperature fixed.
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  
u

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

Driving advice
Distribution of loads
F distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest   items   are   as   close   as  
p

ossible   to   the   axle   and   the   nose   weight  
a

pproaches   the   maximum   permitted  
w

ithout   exceeding   it.
ai

r density decreases with altitude, thus
reducing
  engine   per formance.   Above  
1 0

00 metres,   the   maximum   towed   load   must  
b

e   reduced   by   10 %   for   every   1 000   metres   of  
al

titude.
Side wind
F Take   into   account   the   increased   sensitivity  t
o   side   wind.
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. 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   on   a   long  
m

ountain   type   of   descent,   the   use   of   engine  
b

raking   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.
Refer to the "Technical data" section for details
of
 
the
 
weights
 
and
 
towed
 
loads
 
which
 
apply
 
to
 
y

our
 
vehicle.
When
 
not
 
towing
 
a
 
trailer,
 
remove
 
the
 
q

uickly-detachable
 
tow
 
ball
 
before
 
d

riving. The
  rear   parking   sensors   will   be  
d

eactivated   automatically   if   a   genuine  
C

ITROËN   towbar   is   used.

Practical information

221
C4-cactus_en_Chap10_verifications_ed02-2014
Coolant level
The coolant level should be close
to  the   "MA X"   mark   but   should   never  
e

xceed   it.
In
 
addition,   as   the   cooling   system   is  
p

ressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching
 
off   the   engine   before   carrying   out   any  
wo

rk.
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.Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be replaced at routine services.
The brake fluid level should be close to   the   "MA X"   mark.   If   it   is   not,   check  
t

he   brake   pad   wear.
Brake fluid level
Changing the fluid
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for   details   of   the   interval   for   this   operation.
Fluid specification
The brake fluid must conform to the manufacturer's r ecommendations. The cooling fan may star t after switching
off the engine: take care with ar ticles 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.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the ma
nufacturer's r ecommendations.
