Instruments and controls
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.
