55 Safety
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to deactivate the passenger'sairbag when you install a "rear-facing"child seat on the front passenger seat.
Other wise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the air bag wereto inflate.)With the ignition switched off, inser t thefkey into the passenger airbag deactivation switch 1, turn it to the "OFF"position, then remove the key keeping the switch in this position.
In the "OFF"position, the passenger airbag willnot be deployed in the event of an impact.
As soon as the "rear-facing"
child seat is
removed, turn the airbag switch to the "ON"position to re-activate the airbag and thus ensure the safety of your passenger in the
event of an impact. If the passen
ger airbag is
deactivated, the warning lamp in the
instrument panel remains on until the
passen
ger airbag is reactivated.
Flashin
g indicates a fault with at least
one of these airbags.Contact a CITROËN dealer or aqualified workshop to have thesystem checked. The airbags may no longer be
deployed in the event of a serious impact.
Deactivation (check)

Airba
g fault


*
According to version.












Lateral airbags * and
curtain airbags *

The lateral airbags are built into the front seatbacks on the door side.
The deployment of these airbags requires a
serious side impact applied in the side impact
zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinalcentreline of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane and from the outside of the vehicle towards the inside. The lateral airbag inflates between the front occupant of the vehicle and the door trimpanel. It therefore limits the risk of injury to
the chest.
The cur tain airba
gs are built into the headlining.
The cur tain airba
g inflates between the front or rear occupant and the windows. It therefore
limits the risk of head injuries. In the event of a
minor impact or bump on the side of the vehicle
or if the vehicle rolls over, the airbag may notbe deployed. The airbag is not deployed in the event of a front or rear collision.

86Checks






Checking levels
There are two marks on thedipstick:A= maximum
If you fill past this mark, contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. B= minimum
Never allow the level to fallbelow this mark.
Dipstick
Brake fluid level

The brake fluid level should be close to the
"MA X" mark. If it is not, check the brake pad
w
ear. If a level drops si
gnificantly, have the corresponding system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Check all of these levels re
gularly and top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns).
Oil level
The check is carried out either when the ignition is switched on using the oil level indicator on the instrument panel, or using the
dipstick.
This manual check will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine has
been off for more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two ser vices (or oil changes). CITROËN recommends that you checkthe level, and top up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms). After topping up the oil, the check whenswitching on the ignition with the oillevel indicator in the instrument panelis not valid during the 30 minutes after topping up.


Engine oil change

Refer to the servicing booklet for details of the
interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliabilit
y of the engine

additives in the engine oil is prohibited.

Oil specifi cation

The oil must be the correct grade for your engine and conform to the manufacturer'srecommendations.
