Used products

Avoid prolonged contact of used
oil or fl uids with the skin.
Most of these fl uids are harmful
to health or indeed very corro-
sive.
Do not discard used oil or fl uids
into sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop
(France) or to an authorised
waste disposal site.









Additive level (Diesel with
particle emissions filter)
The additive reservoir low level is indi-
cated by:

Topping up
The reservoir must be topped up with-
out delay by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.


- fi xed illumination of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter warning
lamp, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
that the particle emissions
fi lter additive level is too low.


Screenwash / headlamp wash
fluid 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.
In wintry conditions, the use of a fl uid
with an ethyl alcohol or methanol base
is recommended.
To check the level or top up
the fl uid on vehicle fi tted with
headlamp washers, immobilise
the vehicle and switch of the
engine.



Open the bonnet and secure it with
the stay.


Open the screenwash reservoir fi ll-
er cap.


Take and pinch the level gauge to
block its breather.


Remove the gauge completely from
the reservoir to read the level in the
transparent section.


Top up if necessary.


Refi t the fi ller cap to the reservoir
and close the bonnet.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
204
Amber coloured bulbs, such as
the direction indicators, must be
replaced with bulbs of identical
specifi cations and colour.
When refi tting, close the protec-
tive cover carefully to preserve
the sealing of the headlamp.













Changing direction indicator bulbs

Model with halogen headlamps
Rapid fl ashing of the direction
indicator warning lamp (right
or left) indicates the failure of a
bulb on that side.

Access to bulbs



Remove the air defl ector by unclip-
ping each of its three attachment
points.


Unclip the bonnet release cable at
its two fi xings.


Move the cable down.
After changing the failed bulb, remember
to put everything back in place (cable and
air defl ector). Depending on the engine and only on
the left hand side, you must fi rst carry
out the following operations for access
to the protective covers on the bulbs.



Turn the bulb holder a quarter of a
turn and extract it.


Pull out the bulb and change it.
To reassemble, carry out these opera-
tions in reverse order.
Model with Xenon headlamps




Remove the protective cover by
pulling on its tongue.


Disconnect the electrical connector.


Separate the springs to release the
bulb.


Pull the bulb out and replace it.
To reassemble, carry out these opera-
tions in reverse order.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
213
When your vehicle's battery is dis-
charged, the engine can be started
using a slave battery (external or on
another vehicle) and jump lead cables.












Starting using another battery




12 V BATTERY

The battery is located under the bonnet.
For access to the (+) terminal:



release the bonnet using the interior
lever, then the exterior safety catch,


raise the bonnet and secure it with
its stay,


lift the plastic cover for access to the
(+) terminal.


Access to the battery







The presence of this label, in par-
ticular with the Stop & Start sys-
tem, indicates the use of a 12 V
lead-acid battery with special
technology and specifi cation;
the involvement of a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop is
essential when replacing or dis-
connecting the battery.
Procedure for starting the engine us-
ing another battery or charging a dis-
charged 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).
First check that the slave battery
has a nominal voltage of 12 V
and a capacity at least equal to
that of the discharged battery.
Do not try to start the engine by
connecting a battery charger.
Do not disconnect the (+) termi-
nal when the engine is running.
Before doing any work
Immobilise the vehicle: apply the
parking brake, put the gearbox
in neutral, then switch off the ig-
nition.
Check that all electrical equip-
ment is switched off.

IDENTIFICATION MARKINGS

Various visible markings for the identifi -
cation of your vehicle.

A. Vehicle identifi cation number (VIN)
under the bonnet.

This number is engraved on the bod-
ywork near the suspension damper
mounting.
B. Vehicle identifi cation number on
the dashboard.

This number is indicated on a self-ad-
hesive label which is visible through the
windscreen.
D. Tyre/paint label.

This label is affi xed to the driver's front
pillar.
The tyre pressures must be
checked when the tyres are
cold, at least once a month.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel
consumption.
C. Manufacturer's label.

The VIN is indicated on a self-destroy-
ing label affi xed to the driver's centre
pillar. It bears the following information:


- the tyre pressures, for unladen and
laden conditions,

- the tyre sizes (including the load in-
dex and speed rating),

- the spare tyre infl ation pressure,

- the paint colour code.
