Checking levels
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles so equipped, or
using the dipstick.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not star t the engine.
-

I
f the level is above the MAX mark (risk
of damage to the engine), contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
-

I
f the level is below the MIN mark, you
must top-up the engine oil.
Take care when working under the
bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and
the cooling fan could start at any time
(even with the ignition off).
To ensure that the reading is correct, your
vehicle must be parked on a level sur face
with the engine having been off for more than
30
m

inutes.
It is normal to top-up the oil level 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).
Checking using the dipstick
The location of the dipstick is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.

pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between the marks A
and B .
A = MA X
B = MIN

Oil grade
Before topping-up the oil or changing the oil,
check that the oil is the correct grade for your

fter checking the level, carefully refit the
oil filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
After topping-up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil
level indicator in the instrument panel
is not valid during the 30 minutes after
topping-up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, never use

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the terminals are
correctly tightened (versions without quick release
terminals) and that the connections are clean.
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
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.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours. Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Oil filter
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the replacement interval for this
component.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
For more information and the precautions to
take before starting work on the 12 V batter y ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
