Checking and topping up this fl uid can
only be done when stationary with the
engine off.
The driver should check the level of this
fl uid regularly, particularly during winter.
Refer to "Checks - § Screenwash/head-

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 corro-
sive.
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.
Additive level (Diesel with particle emissions filter)
According to your version of instrument
panel, the additive reservoir low level is
indicated by:
Topping up
The reservoir must be topped up with-
out delay by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
- fi xed illumination of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter warning
lamp, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
that the particle emissions fi l-
ter additive level is too low,
- fi xed illumination of the
service warning lamp, ac-
companied by an audible
signal and a message that
the particle emissions fi lter additive level is too low. or
Screenwash/headlamp washlevel
Specifi cation of the fl uid
To ensure optimum cleaning and to
avoid freezing, the fl uid should never be
topped up or replaced by plain water.
To check the level or top up the
fl uid on vehicle fi tted with head-
lamp washers, immobilise the
vehicle and switch of the engine.
)
Open the bonnet and secure it with
the stay.
)
Open the screenwash reservoir fi ller

CHANGING A BULB
The headlamps are fi tted with
polycarbonate glass with a pro-
tective 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 direct at the lamps or
their outlines for too long, so
as not to damage their pro-
tective 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.
Risk of electrocution
Xenon bulbs (D1S-35W) must be
replaced by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

Amber coloured bulbs, such as
the direction indicators, must be
replaced with bulbs of identical
specifi cations and colour.
When refi tting, close the protec-
tive cover carefully to preserve
the sealing of the headlamp.
Changing direction indicator bulbs
Model with halogen headlamps
Rapid fl ashing of the direction
indicator warning lamp (right
or left) indicates the failure of a
bulb on that side.
Access to bulbs
)

ping each of its three attachment
points.
)
Unclip the bonnet release cable at
its two fi xings.
)

After changing the failed bulb, remember
to put everything back in place (cable and
air defl ector). Depending on the engine and only on
the left hand side, you must fi rst carry
out the following operations for access
to the protective covers on the bulbs.
)
Turn the bulb holder a quarter of a
turn and extract it.
)
Pull out the bulb and change it.
To reassemble, carry out these opera-
tions in reverse order.
