2012.5 Citroen DS5 RHD oil pressure

Limit the causes of excess
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; placethe heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,as close as possible to the rear seats.Limit the loads carried in the vehicle andreduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.

At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.


Observe the recommendations
on maintenance


Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aper ture, driver's side. Carry out this check in par ticular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres onany trailer or caravan.


Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) and obser ve the schedule of operations recommended by themanufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after the 3rd
cut-off of the nozzle to avoid any over flow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is onlyafter the first 1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down to a consistent average.

When the engine is running or the vehicle is being driven, illumination of one of the following warning lamps indicates a fault which requires action on
the par t of the driver.
Any fault resulting in the illumination of a warning lamp must be investigated further by reading the associated message in the instrument panel screen.

STOPfixed, associated withanother warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and amessage in the screen. It is associated with a punctured
wheel, the brakin
g system, the power steering, the engine oil pressure, the engine coolant temperature or a major electrical fault.Stop as soon as it is safe to do so as the en
gine may cut out.
Park, switch off the ignition and call a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.



Serviceon temporarily. A minor fault has occurred for which
there is no specific warning lamp. Identify the fault by reading the message shown in the screen, such as, for example:
- the closing of the doors, boot or bonnet,
- the engine oil level,
- the screenwash level,
- the remote control battery,
- the tyre pressures,
- saturation of the par ticle emission filter (Diesel).- ...For any other faults, contact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop.

)Turn the selector Ato the "air" position.)Uncoil the black pipe Hfully. )Connect the black pipe to the
valve of the wheel.
) Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket.) Star t the vehicle again and leave the engine running.

)Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B
in position "I"
; to deflate: switch B
in position "O"and press button C), in accordance with the vehicle's
tyre pressure label (located on the left hand
door aperture).
A loss of pressure indicates that the
puncture has not been fully plugged; contact a CITROËN dealer or qualified
workshop for assistance.)Remove and stow the kit.
)Drive at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h] max) limiting the distance travelled toapproximately 120 miles (200 km).




As soon as possible, go to a CITROËNdealer or a qualified workshop.You must inform the technician that you have used this kit. After inspection, the technician will advise you on whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must be replaced.

191Practical information

Removing the cartridge
)Stow the black pipe. )Detach the angled base from the white pipe.)Suppor t the compressor ver tically.)Unscrew the car tridge from the bottom.


Beware of discharges of fluid.
The expiry date of the fluid is indicated on the car tridge.
The sealant car tridge is designed for
single use; even if only partly used, itmust be replaced. After use, do not discard the car tridgeinto the environment, take it to an authorised waste disposal site or a CITROËN dealer.
Do not forget to obtain a new sealantcartridge, available from CITROËN dealers or from a qualified workshop.

Checking tyre pressures /
inflating accessories
You can also use the compressor, withoutinjecting any product, to:
- check or adjust the pressure of your tyres,
- inflate other accessories (balls, bicycle
tyres...).

)
Turn the selector Ato the "Air"
position.
) Uncoil the black pipe H
fully.)
Connect the black pipe to the
valve of the wheel or accessory.
If necessary, fit one of the adaptorssupplied with the kit first.
) Connect the compressor's electrical connector to the vehicle's 12 V socket. )
Star t the vehicle and let the engine run. )
Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B
in position "I"
; to deflate: switch B
in position "O"and press button C), according to the vehicle's tyrepressure label or the accessory's pressure
label. ) Remove the kit then stow it.

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require anymaintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for the
details of the level checking interval
for this component.
6-speed electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require anymaintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing booklet for
details of the checking inter val for
this component.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the servicing booklet for
details of the level checking interval
for this component.Brake wear depends on the style
o
f driving, par ticularly in the case
of vehicles used in town, over shor t
distances. It ma
y be necessary to
have the condition of the brakes checked, even between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are worn.















Brake pads
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
