the level of deterioration of the engine
oil, which depends on the driving
conditions in which the vehicle is used.

Checking components
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Oil filter
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
Versions equipped with Stop &
Start are fitted with a 12 V lead-acid
battery of specific technology and
specification.
Its replacement should be carried
out only by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
12 V battery
For more information and the precautions to
take before starting work on the 12 V batter y
,
refer to the corresponding section.
The battery does not require any maintenance.However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release terminals)
and that the connections are clean.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often
if necessary .
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.

For more information on Checking
the levels and in particular on the
diesel additive level, refer to the
corresponding section.
On a new vehicle, the first operations
of regeneration of the particle filter
may be accompanied by the smell of
"burning", which is per fectly 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.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for the checking interval for
this component.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service
schedule for the checking interval for
this component.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style
of driving, particularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over short
distances. It may be necessary to have
the condition of the brakes checked,
even between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
