instrument panel Citroen DS5 RHD 2014 1.G Workshop Manual

Dynamic stability control (DSC)
and anti-slip regulation (ASR)

Activation

These systems are activated automatically
each time the vehicle is started.
As soon as they detect a problem of grip or
trajectory, these systems act on the operation if
the engine and brakes.
This is indicated by flashing of this
warning lamp in the instrument panel.

the event of a serious side impact applied to all
or part of the side impact zone B
, perpendicular
to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a
horizontal plane and directed from the outside
towards the inside of the vehicle.
The lateral airbag inflates between the hip and

225Practical information








Load reduction mode

System which manages the use of certain
functions according to the level of charge
remaining in the battery.
When the vehicle is being driven, the load
reduction function temporarily deactivates
certain functions, such as the air conditioning,
the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions permit.
System which manages the duration of use of
certain functions to conser ve a sufficient level
of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio and
telematics system, windscreen wipers, dipped
beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for
a maximum combined duration of about
forty minutes.









Energy economy mode


Switching to economy mode

A message then appears in the instrument
panel screen indicating that the vehicle has
switched to economy mode and the active
functions are put on standby.
If a telephone call is being made at this time,
it will be maintained for around 10 minutes with
the Bluetooth hands-free system of your audio
system.


Exiting economy mode

These functions are reactivated automatically
next time the vehicle is driven.
In order to restore the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it run:


- for less than ten minutes, to use the
equipment for approximately five minutes,

- for more than ten minutes, to use the
equipment for up to approximately
thirty minutes.
Let the engine run for the duration specified to
ensure that the battery charge is sufficient.
Do not repeatedly and continuously restart the
engine in order to charge the battery.
A flat battery prevents the engine from starting
(refer to the "Battery" section).

241Checks






Checking levels


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).




















Engine oil level


The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles with and electric oil
level gauge, or using the dipstick.

It is normal to top up the oil level between
two ser vices (or oil changes). CITROËN
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
To ensure that the reading is correct,
your vehicle must be on level ground
and the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the maintenance and warranty guide. 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.

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.


- Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and
remove it completely.

- Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean
non-fluffy cloth.

- Refit the dipstick and push fully down, then
pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between the marks A

and B
.


A
= MA X


B
= MIN

If you find that the level is above the A
mark or
below the B
mark, do not star t the engine
.


- If the level is above the MAX
mark (risk
of damage to the engine), contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

- If the level is below the MIN
mark, you
must top up the engine oil.

Power steering fluid level

The power steering fluid level should
be close to the "MA X" mark. With
the engine cold, unscrew the cap to
check the level. The brake fluid level should be close
to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.










Brake fluid level


Changing the fl uid

Refer to the maintenance and warranty guide
for details of the inter val for this operation.


Fluid specifi cation

The brake fluid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.



Topping up the engine oil level



Oil grade

The oil must be the correct grade for your
engine and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.

Refer to the "Petrol engine" or "Diesel engine"
section for the location of the oil filler cap in the
engine compartment of your vehicle.


- Unscrew the oil filler cap to reveal the filler
aperture.

- Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any
spills on engine components (risk of fire).

- Wait a few minutes before checking the
level again using the dipstick.

- Add more oil if necessary.

- After checking the level, carefully refit the
oil filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.


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.


Engine oil change

Refer to the maintenance and warranty guide
for details of 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.

Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or
fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop (France) or to an
authorised waste disposal site.








Used products


Topping up

This additive must be topped up by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop without delay.











Diesel additive level
(Diesel engine with particle
emission filter)
A low additive level is
indicated by illumination of
the ser vice warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning and a
message in the instrument panel screen.

Sound Staging.
With Sound Staging, the driver and passengers are immersed in an
"audio scene" recreating the natural atmosphere of an auditorium:
truly a part of the scene and its surroundings.
This new sensation is made possible by software in the audio system
which processes the digital signals from the media players (radio,
CD, MP3…) without changing the audio settings. This processing
takes account of the characteristics of the passenger compartment to
produce optimum results.
The Arkamys
© software installed in your audio system processes
the digital signal from the media players (radio, CD, MP3, …) and
recreates a natural musical scene, with harmonious placement of
instruments and voices in the space in front of passengers, level with
the windscreen.
