PRACTICAL INFORMATION

CHECKS
Oil filter

Change the ﬁ lter regularly, in accord-
ance with the servicing schedule.
Only use products recom-
mended by CITROËN or
products of equivalent quality
and speciﬁ cations.
To ensure best performance from
components as important as the
power steering and the braking sys-
tem, CITROËN selects and offers
quite speciﬁ c products.
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, avoid washing the engine.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL (DIESEL)

If you should run out of fuel, it is nec-
essary to re-prime the circuit:

- ﬁ ll the fuel tank with at least ﬁ ve litres
of diesel,

- squeeze and release the manual
re-priming pump, under the bonnet
under the protective cover, until fuel
appears in the transparent pipe,

- operate the starter until the engine
starts.
FUEL SUPPLY CUT-OFF(PETROL)

In a serious collision, a mechanism prevents
fuel from reaching the engine.
To re-establish the fuel supply, press
the switch on the corner of the front
right-hand suspension assembly, under
the bonnet.

Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Have the ﬁ lter elements replaced regu-
larly. If you drive in dusty conditions,
change them twice as often.

Brake pads

Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to check the
thickness of the pads, even between
services.

Disc and drum wear status

For any information relating to check-
ing the disc and drum wear status,
contact a CITROËN dealer.

Manual gearbox

This does not require an oil change.
Check the level in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.

To check the main levels and cer-
tain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corre-
spond to your vehicle's engine.

Handbrake

Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer.

Battery

At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a CITROËN dealer.
