check engine Citroen DS4 DAG 2010.5 1.G Owner's Guide

Removing the cartridge
 Stow the black pipe.  Detach the angled base from the white pipe.  Suppor t the compressor ver tically.  Unscrew the car tridge from the bottom.
Checking tyre pressures/
inflating accessories
Beware of discharges of fluid. The expiry date of the fluid is indicated
on the car tridge. The sealant car tridge is designed for single use; even if only par tly used, it must be replaced. After use, do not discard the cartridge into the environment, take it to an authorised waste disposal site or a CITROËN dealer. Do not forget to obtain a new sealant car tridge, available from CITROËN dealers or from a qualified workshop.
You can also use the compressor, without injecting any product, to: - check or adjust the pressure of your tyres, - inflate other accessories (balls, bicycle tyres...).
 Connect the compressor's electrical connector to the vehicle's 12 V socket.  Star t the vehicle and let the engine run.  Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B in position "I" ; to deflate: switch B in position "O" and press button C ), according to the vehicle's tyre
pressure label or the accessory's pressure label.  Remove the kit then stow it.
 Turn the selector A to the "Air" position.  Uncoil the black pipe H fully.  Connect the black pipe to the valve of the wheel or accessory. If necessary, fit one of the adaptors supplied with the kit first.

 Connect the red cable to the positive terminal (+) of the flat battery A , then to the positive terminal (+) of the slave battery B .  Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative terminal (-) of the slave battery B .  Connect the other end of the green or black cable to the ear th point C on the broken down vehicle.
 Operate the star ter, let the engine run.  Wait until the engine returns to idle and disconnect the cables.
Charging the battery using
a battery charger
The batteries contain harmful substances such as sulphuric acid and lead. They must be disposed of in accordance with regulations and must not, in any circumstances, be discarded with household waste. Take used remote control batteries and vehicle batteries to a special collection point.
 Disconnect the battery from the vehicle.  Follow the instructions for use provided by the manufacturer of the charger. Reconnect starting with the negative terminal (-). Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are covered with sulphate (whitish or greenish deposit), remove them and clean them.
The Stop & Star t battery does not have to be disconnected for charging.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery if the vehicle is to be left unused for
more than one month.

271Practical information
The rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically if a genuine
CITROËN towbar is used.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads
 Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it. Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine per formance. Above 1 000 metres, the maximum towed load must be reduced by 10 % for every 1 000 metres of altitude. Refer to the "Technical Data" section for details of the weights and towed loads which apply to your vehicle.
Side wind
 Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature of the coolant. As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.  To lower the engine speed, reduce your speed. The maximum towed load on a long incline depends on the gradient and the ambient temperature. In all cases, keep a check on the coolant temperature.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
Tyres
 Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, obser ving the recommended pressures.
Lighting
 Check the electrical lighting and signalling on the trailer.
 If the warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off
the engine as soon as possible.

281Technical data

Identifi cation markings
Various visible markings for the identification of yo ur vehicle.
A. Vehicle identification number (VIN) under the bonnet. This number is engraved on the bodywork near the engine mounting.
B. Vehicle identification number on the dashboard. This number is indicated on a self-adhesive label which is visible through the windscreen.
D. Tyre/paint label. This label is affixed to the driver's front pillar.
Wheels which are fitted with 225/40 R18 tyres cannot be fitted with snow chains. For more information, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Low tyre pressures increase fuel consumption.
The tyre pressures must be checked
when the tyres are cold, at least once a month.
C. Manufacturer's label. The VIN is indicated on a self-destroying label affixed to the driver's centre pillar.
It bears the following information: - the tyre pressures, for unladen and laden conditions, - the wheel rim and tyre sizes, - the brands of tyre recommended by the manufacturer, - the spare tyre inflation pressure, - the paint colour code.
