Diesel additive level
(Diesel engine with particle
emission filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop without delay.
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of
used oil or fl uids with the skin.
Most of these fl uids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fl u-
ids into sewers or onto the
ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop (France) or
to an authorised waste disposal
site. The additive reservoir
low level is indicated
by fi xed illumination
of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message in the multifunction
screen.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
When the engine is warm, the tem-
perature of the coolant is regulated
by the fan. This can operate with the
ignition off.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.
For vehicles fi tted with a particle
emissions fi lter, the cooling fan may
continue to run after stopping the
vehicle, 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.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
In the case of vehicles fi tted
with headlamp washers, the
low fl uid level is indicated
by an audible signal and a
message in the screen.
Top up the reservoir when you next
stop the vehicle.
Fluid specifi cation
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be
topped up with or replaced with plain
water.
Reservoir capacity (depending on
version).
- screenwash fl uid: approximately
3.5 litres,
- screenwash and headlamp wash
fl uid: approximately 6.15 litres.

headlamps (dipped/main):

2.

3.
Daytime running lamps /
sidelamps (LEDs)
For the maintenance of the front lamps
and changing HP19 and D1S bulbs
and LED lamps, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Risk of electrocution
Xenon bulbs must be replaced by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
You are advised to change both
D1S bulbs at the same time, if one
of them has failed. The headlamps are fi tted with
polycarbonate glass with a
protective coating:
)
do not clean them using a dry
or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,
)
use a sponge and soapy water,
)
when using a high pressure
washer on persistent marks, do
not keep the lance directed to-
wards the lamps or their edges
for too long, so as not to dam-
age their protective coating and
seals,
)
do not touch the bulb directly
with your fi ngers, use lint-free
cloths.
Changing a bulb should only be
done after the headlamp has been
switched off for a few minutes (risk
of serious burns).
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs in order
not to damage the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specifi cation.
