Par ticle emission filter (Diesel)

Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the Warranty and Maintenance Record and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check that the terminals
are clean and correctly tightened,
particularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer to
the "Practical information" section for details of
the precautions to be taken before disconnecting
the battery and following its reconnection.


Refer to the Warranty and
Maintenance Record for details of
the replacement inter vals for these
components.
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 compar tment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.


Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the Warranty and
Maintenance Record for details of
the replacement inter val for this
component.





The presence of this label, in particular with
the Stop & Star t system, indicates the use of
a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
technology and specification, for which the
involvement of a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop is required when replacing or
disconnecting the battery.
Failure to obser ve this recommendation may
shor ten the life of the battery. The star t of saturation of the
par ticle filter is indicated by the
temporary illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message in the multi-
function screen.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regenerate the filter 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, this indicates a
low additive level.

On a new vehicle, the first par ticle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or the environment.
