WARNING LAMPS AND
INDICATORS
A warning lamp on fi xed or fl ashing,
with the engine running, indicates an
fault in the operation of the unit con-
cerned. The illumination of certain
warning lamps may be accompa-
nied by an audible signal and a mes-
sage in the screen. Do not ignore
this warning: consult a CITROËN
dealer as soon as possible.
If the central STOP warning lamp
comes on when you are driving,
stop your vehicle immediately,
where it is safe to do so.
Central (STOP)
warning lamp
Engine oil pressure
and temperature
warning lamp
Linked to the central (STOP) warn-
ing lamp.
You must stop.
This warning lamp indicates one of
the following:
- low oil pressure indicated by the
message "Oil pressure insuffi -
cient"
in the screen.
- low engine oil level. Top up the
level.
- oil temperature too high. To lower
the oil temperature, reduce your
speed.
Illumination of the warning lamp is
accompanied by an audible signal.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Low engine coolant
level warning lamp
Linked to the central (STOP)
warning lamp.
This comes on for a few seconds
when the ignition is switched on.
Illumination of this warning lamp is
accompanied by an audible signal
and the message "Top up engine
fl uid level"
in the screen.
You must stop as soon as it is safe
to do so.
Wait for the engine to cool before
topping up the level.
The cooling system is pressurised.
Parking brake, low
brake fluid level and
Electronic Brake Force
Distribution system
fault warning lamp
Linked to the central (STOP) warning
lamp.
This comes on each time the ignition
is switched on.
Illumination of this warning lamp is
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message in the screen indicat-
ing the cause of the warning:
- "Handbrake on",
if the parking
brake is applied or not fully re-
leased.
- "Brake fl uid level low"
if there is
an excessive drop in brake fl uid
level (if the warning lamp remains
on even when the parking brake
is released).
- "Braking fault"
is displayed to-
gether with the ABS warning
lamp, indicating a fault with the
Electronic Brake Force Distribu-
tion system. You must stop as
soon as it is safe to do so.
Consult a CITROËN dealer. If a check is required, to prevent
any risk of burns
unscrew the cap
by two turns to allow the pressure to
drop.
When the pressure has dropped, re-
move the cap and top up the level.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Linked to the warning lamps for:
- ''engine oil pressure and temper-
ature'',
- ''low coolant level'',
- 'parking brake'',
- ''low brake fl uid level'',
- ''electronic brake force distribu-
tion system fault''.
Linked with the "coolant tempera-
ture" gauge.
You must stop if the lamp fl ashes
with the engine running.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
DRIVING64 -
HANDBRAKE
Illumination of this warning
light and of the STOP
warn-
ing light, accompanied by
an audible signal (while the
vehicle is moving), indicates that the
handbrake is still applied or has not
been released fully.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS) AND THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE FORCEDISTRIBUTION (EBFD)
The ABS, in conjunction with the
electronic brake force distribution,
increases the stability and manoeu-
vrability of your vehicle on braking,
in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
Note:
when changing wheels (tyres
and rims), make sure that these are
approved.
The anti-lock braking system comes
into operation automatically when
there is a risk of wheel lock.
When this warning light comes
on, connected to the STOP
and ABS
warning lights, it
indicates that there is a mal-
function of the electronic brake force
distribution, which can cause a loss of
control of the vehicle when braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, consult a CITROËN
dealer. When this warning light
comes on, accompanied by a
buzzer, it indicates that there
is a malfunction of the ABS,
which can cause a loss of control of
the vehicle when braking. Normal operation of the ABS may
make itself felt by slight vibrations
of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking, press
very fi rmly without releasing the
pressure.
Releasing
Pull the handle and press the button
to release the handbrake.
Applying
When parking, pull the handbrake to
immobilise your vehicle.
