Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up or replaced with plain water.
Reservoir capacities:
-
screenwash: approximately 3.5 litres,
- screenwash and headlamp wash:
approximately 6.15 litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel engine with particle
emission filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop without delay.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of
used oil or fl uids with the
skin.
Most of these fl uids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or
fl uids into sewers or onto the
ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop (France) or
to an authorised waste disposal
site. In the case of vehicles fi tted
with headlamp washers, the
minimum level of this fl uid
is indicated by an audible
signal and a message in the multi-
function screen.
Top up the level when you stop the
vehicle.
Coolant level
Coolant change
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm,
the temperature of the coolant is
regulated by the fan. This can oper-
ate with the ignition off.
On vehicles which are fi tted with
a particle emission fi lter, the fan
may operate after the vehicle has
been switched off, even if the en-
gine is cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour
after switching off the engine before
carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, un-
screw the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove
the cap and top up the level. The additive reservoir
low level is indicated
by fi xed illumination
of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message in the multifunction
screen.

3.
Daytime running lamps/

For the maintenance of the front
lamps and changing HP19 and
D1S bulbs and LED lamps, contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Risk of electrocution
Xenon bulbs must be replaced by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
You are advised to change both
D1S bulbs at the same time, if one
of them has failed. The headlamps are fi tted with
polycarbonate glass with a
protective coating:
)
do not clean them using a
dry or abrasive cloth, nor
with a detergent or solvent
product,
)
use a sponge and soapy water,
)
when using a high pressure
washer on persistent marks, do
not keep the lance directed to-
wards the lamps or their edges
for too long, so as not to dam-
age their protective coating and
seals.
)
Do not touch the bulb directly
with your fi ngers, use lint-free
cloths.
Changing a bulb should only be
done after the headlamp has been
switched off for a few minutes (risk
of serious burns).
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs in order
not to damage the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specifi cation.
