FUEL GAUGE
The fuel level is tested each time the key is
turned to the "running" position.
The gauge is positioned on:
- 1: the fuel tank is full, approximately
80 litres.
- 0: the reserve is now being used, the
warning light comes on continuously.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
The needle is positioned before the red
zone: normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations.
What you should do if the warning light
comes on:
- stop immediately, switch off the ignition. The fan may continue to operate for a
certain time up to approximately
10 minutes.
- wait for the engine to cool down in order to check the coolant level and top it up if
necessary.
Refer to the "Fuel" section of chapter 6.
What you should do if the needle enters
the red zone:
Reduce your speed or let the engine run at
idle. Refer to the "Levels" section of
chapter 6.
The reserve when the warning first comes
on is approximately 8 litres. As the cooling system is pressurised, follow
this advice in order to avoid any risk of
scalding:
- wait at least one hour after switching off
the engine before carrying out any work,
- unscrew the cap by 1/4 turn to allow the pressure to drop,
- when the pressure has dropped, check the level on the expansion bottle,
- if necessary, remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone, have
the system checked by a CITROËN dealer.

Operation
A few moments after the ignition has been
switched on, the spanner indicating a
service operation lights up; the display for
the total distance recorder tells you (in round

on, the oil level is displayed, then the total

and wait for at least five minutes, otherwise
the zero re-set will not be registered.
Zero re-set
Your CITROËN dealer carries out this
operation after each service.
However, if you carry out the service
yourself, the re-set procedure is as follows:
- switch off the ignition,
- press and hold the trip recorder reset
button,
- switch on the ignition.
The display begins a countdown.
When the display shows "=0" , release the

oil level is indicated for a few seconds, after
the service information. Oil level correct
Lack of oil
Flashing of

with the service warning
light, accompanied by
an audible signal and a
message on the display, indicates a lack of
oil which could damage the engine.
If the lack of oil is confirmed by a check
using the dipstick, it is essential that the
level is topped up.
Oil level gauge fault
Flashing of "OIL --"
indicates a malfunction
of the engine oil level
gauge. Consult a

The level read will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more than
15 minutes. Dipstick

Reverse gear
In the 6-speed configuration, raise the collar
under the gear knob to engage reverse gear.
Never engage reverse gear before
the vehicle is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce
the noise on engaging reverse gear.
To change gear easily, always press
the clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:
- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand on
the gear knob as the force exerted, even if
slight, may wear the internal components of
the gearbox over time.
DEPTH ADJUSTMENT
When the vehicle is stationary, unlock
the steering wheel by lowering the lever.
Adjust the height and depth of the steering
wheel, then lock by pushing the lever fully
upwards.
