CHECKING LEVELS
Dipstick
Oil change
According to the information given in
the servicing booklet.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the manufacturer's require-
ments.
Note:
the coolant does not need to
be changed.
For vehicles equipped with a par-
ticle fi lter, the engine fan may op-
erate after the ignition has been
switched off, even when the engine
is cold.
There are two marks
on the dipstick:
A
= maximum
Never fi ll past this
mark.
B
= minimum
To maintain the reli-
ability of engines and
emission control sys-
tems, the use of ad-
ditives in engine oil is
prohibited.
Brake fluid level
The brake fl uid must be changed ac-
cording to the manufacturer's servic-
ing schedule.
Use fl uids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulfi l DOT4
standards.
Cooling system
Use the fl uid recommended by the
manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can op-
erate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to re-
lease the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level.
Power steering reservoir
)
Open the reservoir, with the en-
gine at ambient temperature. The
level should always be above the
MIN. mark and close to the MAX.
mark.
Windscreen and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for
your safety, we would advise that
you use products recommended by
CITROËN.
For optimum cleaning and to prevent
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up or replaced with water.
Used products
Avoid products such as used oil and
brake fl uid coming into prolonged
contact with the skin.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fl uid or
coolant into drains or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers pro-
vided for this purpose in the CITROËN
dealer network (France) or to an author-
ised waste disposal site.
Oil level
It is normal to top up the engine oil
between services. CITROËN rec-
ommends that you check the oil
level, and top up if necessary, every
3 000 miles (5 000 kilometres).
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the oil level gauge
on the instrument panel or the dip-
stick.

CHECKS
Oil filter
Change the fi lter regularly, in accord-
ance with the servicing schedule.
Only use products recom-
mended by CITROËN or
products of equivalent quality
and specifi cations.
To ensure best performance from
components as important as the
power steering and the braking sys-
tem, CITROËN selects and offers
quite specifi c products.
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, avoid washing the engine.
RUNNING OUT OF FUEL (DIESEL)
If you should run out of fuel, it is nec-
essary to re-prime the circuit:
- fi ll the fuel tank with at least fi ve litres
of diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual
re-priming pump, under the bonnet
under the protective cover, until fuel
appears in the transparent pipe,
- operate the starter until the engine
starts.
FUEL SUPPLY CUT-OFF(PETROL)
In a serious collision, a mechanism prevents
fuel from reaching the engine.
To re-establish the fuel supply, press
the switch on the corner of the front
right-hand suspension assembly, under
the bonnet.
Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Have the fi lter elements replaced regu-
larly. If you drive in dusty conditions,
change them twice as often.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style
of driving, in particular for vehicles
which are used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to check the
thickness of the pads, even between
services.
Disc and drum wear status
For any information relating to check-
ing the disc and drum wear status,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
Manual gearbox
This does not require an oil change.
Check the level in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and cer-
tain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corre-
spond to your vehicle's engine.
Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a CITROËN dealer.

Quality of the fuel used for petrol engines
Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines
The petrol engines are perfectly compatible with E10 type petrol biofuels (containing 10% ethanol), conforming to European
standards EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85% ethanol) are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of fuel
(BioFlex vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must comply with European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed to run on fuels containing up to 100% ethanol (E100 type).
The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with biofuels which conform to current and future European standards (Diesel
fuel which complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214) available at the
pumps (containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain Diesel engines; however, this use is subject to strict application of the special servicing
conditions. Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of
damage to the engine and fuel system).
