With the hybrid system active or when the vehicle is being driven, illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires action on the par t of the driver.
Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated further by reading the associated message in the instrument panel screen.
If you encounter any problems, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Warning / indicator lampStateCauseAction / Observations



STOPfixed, associated with another warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the screen.It is associated with a punctured wheel,
the brakin
g system, the power steering,
the engine oil pressure, the enginecoolant temperature, the hybrid system
or a major electrical fault.Stop as soon as it is safe to do so as the en
gine may cut out.
Park, switch off the ignition and call a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.



Serviceon temporarily. A minor fault has occurred for which
there is no specific warning lamp. Identify the fault by reading the message shown in the screen, such as, for example:
- the closing of the doors, boot or bonnet,
- the engine oil level,
- the screenwash level,
- the remote control battery,
- the tyre pressures,
- saturation of the par ticle emission filter (Diesel). - ...For any other faults, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

of the par ticle emissions filter. As soon as traffic conditions allow, regenerate the
filter by driving at a speed of at least 35 mph (60 km/h)
until the ser vice warning lamp goes off.

Monitoring
Engine oil level
indicator
Oil level incorrect
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel screen.
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.

Oil level indicator fault

This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel screen. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.


Dipstick

Refer to the "Checks" section to locatethe dipstick and the oil filler cap on
your engine.
System which informs the driver whether theengine oil level is correct or not.
This information is indicated for a few secondswhen the ignition is switched on, after theservice information.

The level read will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more than30 minutes.
There are
2 marks on the dipstick:


- A= max; never exceed this
level,

-
B= min; top up the level via
the oil filler cap, using the grade of oil suited to your engine.
Oil level correct
This is indicated by a message in the instrument panel screen.

The various caps and covers allow access for
checking the levels of the various fluids, for replacing cer tain components and for primingthe fuel system.

Checking levels Check all of these levels regularly and 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.

When working under the bonnet, take care, as cer tain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns).


Oil level

The reading will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and theengine has been off for more than30 minutes.
The check is carried out either when the ignition
is switched on using the oil level indicator in the
instrument panel, or usin
g the dipstick.
Engine oil change

Refer to the ser vicing booklet for the inter val for
this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, the use of
additives in the engine oil is prohibited.


Oil specifi cation

The oil must correspond to your engineand conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two ser vices. CITROËNrecommends that you check the oil level, and top up if necessary,every 3 000 miles (5 000 kilometres).
Before doing anything under the bonnet,switch off the ignition (Readylamp off) to avoid any risk of injury resulting from automatic operation of the engine.

Particle emission filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of theparticle filter is indicated bythe temporary illumination of
this warning lamp accompanied by a message
in the multi-function screen.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit, regenerate the filter by driving at aspeed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a low additive level.


On a new vehicle, the first par ticlefilter regeneration operations may be accompanied by a "burning" smell, which is perfectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances,notice the emission of water vapour at the exhaust on acceleration. This does not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.
The 100% electric mode is not available during regeneration of the par ticle emissions filter.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Oil filter

Replace the oil filter each time the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for
details of the replacement interval for
this component.
Re
fer to the ser vicing booklet for
details of the replacement intervals
for these components.
Dependin
g on the environment (e.g. dustyatmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often if necessary.y A clogged passenger compartment filter mayhave an adverse effect on the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate undesirable odours.

243Checks
6-speed electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require anymaintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for
details of the checking interval for
this component.
Brake wear depends on the st
yle
of driving, par ticularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over shor tdistances. It may be necessary tohave the condition of the brakes checked, evenbetween vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brakepads are worn.















Brake pads

For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Brake disc wear
Electric parking brake
This system does not require anyroutine servicing. However, in the
event of a problem, have the systemchecked by a CITROËN dealer or aqualified workshop.

















Only use products recommended by CITROËN or products of equivalent quality and specification. In order to optimise the operationof units as impor tant as the braking
system, CITROËN selects and offers very specific products.
To avoid damaging the electrical units, the use of a high pressure washer in the engine compar tment is strictly prohibited.
For more information, refer to the "Electric parking brake - Operating faults" section.
