CHECKS
Screenwash and headlamp wash
fl uid
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be
topped up with or replaced with plain
water.
Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle emission
filter)
A low additive level is indicated by
illumination of the service warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message in the multi-
function screen.
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
low fl uid level is indicated
by an audible signal and a
message in the screen.
Top up the reservoir when you next
stop the vehicle.
Coolant level
Changing the coolant
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 al-
low the pressure to drop. When the
pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level.
