ALARM *

System which protects and provides a de-
terrent against theft and break-ins. It pro-
vides the following types of monitoring.

- exterior perimeter
The system checks for opening of the
vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to
open a door, the boot, the bonnet...



- interior volumetric
The system checks for any variation in the
volume in the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a
window, enters the passenger compart-
ment or moves inside the vehicle.



- tilt
The system checks for any change in
the attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is
lifted, moved or knocked.



Self-protection function
The system checks for the putting out
of service of its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, the
central control or the siren wiring are
put out of service or damaged.
For all work on the alarm sys-
tem, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

CHECKS

CHECKING LEVELS

Check all of these levels regularly and
top them up if necessary, unless other-
wise indicated.
If a level drops signifi cantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.

When working under the bonnet,
take care, as certain areas of the
engine may be extremely hot (risk
of burns).
The reading will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.
The check is carried out either when the
ignition is switched on using the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel, or using
the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two services. CITROËN recommends that
you check the oil level, and top up if neces-
sary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kilometres).

Oil level


Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for the
interval for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emission control system,
the use of additives in the engine oil is
prohibited.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must correspond to your engine
and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.



Brake fluid level

The brake fl uid level should be
close to the "MAX" mark. If it is
not, check the brake pad wear.

Changing the fl uid
Refer to the servicing booklet for the
interval for this operation.

Fluid specifi cation
The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and
meet the DOT4 standard.



Power steering fluid level

The power steering fl uid level
should be close to the "MAX"
mark. Unscrew the cap, with
the engine cold, to check the
level.


Coolant level

The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is regulated
by the fan. This can operate with the ig-
nition off.

On vehicles which are fi tted with a par-
ticle emission fi lter, the fan may oper-
ate after the vehicle has been switched
off, even if the engine is cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying
out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew
the cap by two turns to allow the pres-
sure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top up
the level.

Changing the coolant

The coolant does not have to be changed.


Coolant specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the manu-
facturer's recommendations.

OPERATION OF THE SYSTEM

The green indicator lamp remains on (without fl ashing) when

This call is dealt with by the CITROËN Emergency team which receives
locating information from the vehicle and can send a detailed alert to the
appropriate emergency services. In countries in which the team is not
operational, or when the locating service has been expressly declined,
the call is dealt with directly by the emergency services (112) without the
vehicle location.

If an impact is detected by the airbag ECU, and independently
of the deployment of any airbags, an emergency call is made
automatically.
