indicator, the state of the engine oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds, at the same time as the servicing
information.
Engine oil level indicator*
The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and the
engine has been off for more than
30
m
inutes.
Oil level correct
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by the flashing of " OIL" or the
display of a message, accompanied by the
service warning lamp and an audible signal.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
avoid damage to the engine.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section.
Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by the flashing of " OIL- -" or
the display of a message.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of a fault with the electric indicator,
the oil level is no longer monitored.

engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section.
* Depending on version.
Monitoring

System that informs the driver when the
next service is due, in accordance with the
manufacturer's service schedule.
The point at which the service is due is
calculated from the last service indicator zero
reset, according to the distance covered and
the time elapsed since the last service.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the level of
deterioration of the engine oil may also be
taken into account, depending on the country
of sale.
Service indicator
Between 600 miles (1 000 km)
and 1800 miles (3 000 km) remain
before the next service is due
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the spanner symbolising the service
operations comes on. The distance recorder
display line or a specific message in the
instrument panel central screen indicates the
distance remaining before the next service is due.
For example: 1 700 miles (2 800 km) remain
before the next service is due.
For a few seconds after the ignition is switched
on, the screen indicates:
A few seconds after the ignition is switched on,
the spanner goes off ; the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation. The screen then
indicates the total and trip distances.
More than 1800 miles (3000 km)

When the ignition is switched on, no service
information appears in the instrument panel
central screen.

Checking levels
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.
Engine oil level
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).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.
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).
Checking using the dipstick
Refer to the "Petrol engine" or "Diesel engine"
section for the location of the dipstick in the
engine compartment of your vehicle.
