CHECKS
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance with
the Maintenance and Warranty Guide
and according to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.


Battery

The battery does not require
any maintenance.

However, check that the ter-
minals are clean and correctly
tightened, particularly in sum-
mer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery,
refer to the "Practical information" sec-
tion for details of the precautions to be
taken before disconnecting the battery
and following its reconnection.


Air filter and passenger compartment filter

Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of
the replacement intervals for
these components.

Oil filter

Replace the oil fi lter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of
the replacement interval for
this component.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)

According to your version of instrument
panel, the start of saturation of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter is indicated by:


- fi xed illumination of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter warning
lamp, accompanied by an au-
dible signal and a message
that there is a risk of blockage
of the particle emissions fi lter,






The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specifi c 12 V lead-acid bat-
tery with special technology and speci-
fi cation, for which the involvement of a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop is required when replacing or dis-
connecting the battery.
Failure to observe this recommendation
may shorten the life of the battery.

Depending on the environment (e.g.
dusty atmosphere) and the use of the
vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them
twice as often if necessary
(refer to
the "Engines" section).
A clogged passenger compartment fi l-
ter may have an adverse effect on the
performance of the air conditioning sys-
tem and generate undesirable odours.
As soon as the traffi c conditions per-
mit, regenerate the fi lter by driving at a
speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, refer to
the "Additive level" section.
Following prolonged operation
of the vehicle at very low speed
or at idle, you may, in excep-
tional circumstances, notice the
emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This
does not affect the behaviour of
the vehicle or the environment. or

-
temporary illumination of
the service warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal and a message that
there is a risk of blockage of
the particle emissions fi lter.

CHANGING A FUSE
Access to the tools
The extraction tweezer is fi tted to the
back of the dashboard fusebox cover.
To gain access to them:


)
open the glove box lid,

)
unclip the carrier fi tted to the fuse-
box cover by pulling on the right,

Changing a fuse

Before changing a fuse,


)
the cause of the failure must be
identifi ed and rectifi ed,

)
all electrical consumers must be
switched off,

)
the vehicle must be immobilised
with the ignition off,

)
Identify the failed fuse using the al-
location tables and illustrations on
the following pages.
Good

Failed

To replace a fuse, you must:


)
use the special tweezer to extract
the fuse from its housing and check
the condition of its fi lament.

)
always replace the failed fuse with
a fuse of the same rating (same col-
our); use of a different rating may
cause malfunctions (risk of fi re).
if the fuse fails again soon after re-
placement, have the electrical system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Installing electrical
accessories
Your vehicle’s electrical sys-
tem is designed to operate with
standard or optional equipment.
Before installing other electrical
equipment or accessories on
your vehicle, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

sibility for the cost incurred in
repairing your vehicle or for recti-
fying malfunctions resulting from
the installation of accessories not
supplied and not recommended
by CITROËN and not installed in
accordance with its instructions,
in particular when the combined
consumption of all of the addition-
al equipment connected exceeds
10 milliamperes.
The replacement of a fuse not
mentioned in the following ta-
bles may cause a serious mal-
function of your vehicle. Contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Tweezer


)
remove the tweezer,

)
open the fusebox cover by pulling at
top right, then left,

Do not disconnect the terminals
while the engine is running.
Do not charge the batteries without
disconnecting the terminals fi rst.
Do not push the vehicle to start the
engine if it is fi tted with the 6-speed
electronic gearbox system.


Before disconnecting the battery

Wait 2 minutes after switching off
the ignition before disconnecting
the battery.
Close the windows and the doors
before disconnecting the battery.

Following reconnection of
the battery
Following reconnection of the
battery, switch on the ignition
and wait 1 minute before start-
ing to permit initialisation of the
electronic systems. However, if
problems are encountered fol-
lowing this operation, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Referring to the corresponding
section, you must yourself reini-
tialise:


- the remote control key,

- the panoramic sunroof blind,

- the GPS satellite navigation
system.


LOAD REDUCTION MODE

System which manages the use of cer-
tain functions according to the level of
charge remaining in the battery.

When the vehicle is being driven, the
load reduction function temporarily deac-
tivates certain functions, such as the air
conditioning, the heated rear screen...
The deactivated functions are reactivated
automatically as soon as conditions
permit.
ENERGY ECONOMY MODE
System which manages the period of
use of certain functions to conserve a
suffi cient level of charge in the battery.
After the engine has stopped, you can
still use functions such as the audio
equipment, windscreen wipers, dipped
beam headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc.
for a maximum combined period of
thirty minutes.
Switching to economy mode

Once this period has elapsed, a message
appears in the screen indicating that the ve-
hicle has switched to economy mode and
the active functions are put on standby.
If the telephone is being used at
the same time on the navigation
system, it will be interrupted af-
ter 10 minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the engine
from starting (refer to the corre-
sponding paragraph).
Exiting economy mode

These functions are reactivated auto-
matically the next time the vehicle is
driven.


)
In order to resume the use of these
functions immediately, start the engine
and let it run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be
double the period for which the engine
is left running. However, this period will
always be between fi ve and thirty minutes.

This period may be greatly re-
duced if the battery is not fully
charged.
