Fluid specifi cation
The brake fluid must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations and meet
the DOT4 l o w v i s c o s i ty / ISO 4925 Class6 standard. Th
e brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrumentpanel, or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil levelbetween two ser vices (or oil changes).CITROËN recommends that you check the level, and top up if necessary, every3 000 miles (5 000 kms). 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.
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 star t atany time (even with the ignition off).
It will onl
y be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.
