Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on
maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label inthe door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in par ticular:
- before a long journey,
- at each change of season,
- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.
Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) andobser ve the schedule of operations recommended by the manufacturer.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle toavoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down toa consistent average.

241Practical information
Matt paint
We recommend the use of a high pressurejet wash, or at least a water hose with a high output.
We recommend that the vehicle be rinsed using de-ionised water.
Use only a microfibre cloth to dry the vehicle.It must be clean and used without heavypressure.
Lightly wipe off any fuel stains present on the
bodywork using a soft cloth, then leave to dry.
From the range of cleaning and maintenance
products in the "TECHNATURE" range
recommended and approved by CITROËN,
use only the insect remover and car shampoo,
which are the only products to be used on the
bodywork.
The insect remover can also be used to remove
minor marks (for example: finger marks...).
Always have paint repairs done by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Recommendations on the care and maintenance your vehicle are given in the maintenance and
warranty guide.
Never clean the vehicle without water. Never wash your vehicle in anautomatic roller brush car wash.Never polish the vehicle body, nor thealloy wheels. Doing this will make the paintwork shiny.Do not use paint cleaners, abrasive products or paint polishing or preserving products (such as wax, for example) on the paintwork. These products are only suitable for bright finishes. Application of these products on vehicles with a matt finish will seriously damage the paint surface of the vehicle, giving rise to irreversible
shiny or stained areas.Never use a high pressure jet washwith a lance fitted with a brush, this may scratch the paintwork. Never select a wash programme that finishes with a hot wax cycle.
