Front air bag malfunction
Disarming the passenger
air bag

To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to disarm the pas-
senger air bag when you install a
rear-facing child seat on the front
passenger seat. Otherwise, the
child would risk being killed or se-
riously injured if the air bag were
to infl ate.

 With the ignition switched off ,
insert the key into the passenger
air bag disarming switch 1 , turn
it to the "OFF" position, then re-
move the key keeping the slot in
this position. The air bag warning light on
the instrument panel is lit
throughout the period of dis-
arming.
In the "OFF" position, the passen-
ger air bag will not be triggered in the
event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed,
turn the air bag slot to the "ON" po-
sition to re-activate the air bag and
thus ensure the safety of your pas-
senger in the event of an impact.
This is confi rmed by an indi-
cator light, accompanied by
a message on the display.
With the ignition on (2nd
notch), illumination of this warning
light indicates that the passenger air
bag is disarmed (switch in the "OFF"
position).
If the two air bag warning
lights are lit continuously, do
not install a rear-facing child
seat. Consult a CITROËN
dealer.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
Dipstick
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.

Note: avoid used oil coming into pro-
longed contact with the skin. Empty the
used oil into the containers intended for
this purpose in the CITROËN network.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer's requirements.
Note: the coolant does not need to
be changed.

For vehicles equipped with a parti-
cle fi lter, the engine fan may operate
after the ignition has been switched
off, even when the engine is cold.
There are two marks
on the dipstick:

A = maximum
Never fi ll past this mark.

B = minimum
To maintain the reli-
ability of engines and
emission control sys-
tems, the use of addi-
tives in engine oil is
prohibited. Brake fluid level:
The brake fl uid must be changed
according to the manufacturer's ser-
vicing schedule.
Use fl uids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulfi l DOT4
standards.

Note: brake fl uid is harmful to health
and very corrosive. Avoid all contact
with the skin.
Cooling system
Use the fl uid recommended by the
manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can op-
erate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level. Used oil
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fl u-
id or coolant into drains or onto the
ground.
Power steering reservoir

 Open the reservoir, with the en-
gine at ambient temperature. The
level should always be above the
MIN. mark and close to the MAX.
mark.
Windscreen and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for
your safety, we would advise that
you use products recommended by
CITROËN .
For optimum cleaning and to prevent
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up or replaced with water.
Oil level

 Check the level regularly and top
up between changes. The maxi-
mum consumption is 0.5 l per
600 miles (1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle
level, engine cold, using the oil level
gauge on the instrument panel or the
dipstick.
