LEVELS
Oil change
This must be carried out at the
intervals specifi ed and the viscosity
grade of the oil selected must fulfi l the
requirements in the manufacturer's
servicing schedule. Ask for advice from
a CITROËN dealer.
Remove the dipstick before fi lling.
Check the level after fi lling (never
exceed the max mark).
Refi t the oil fi ller cap before closing the
bonnet.
Changing the brake fluid
The brake fl uid must be changed at
the intervals stated, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fl uids recommended by the
manufacturer, which meet the
DOT4 standard.
The level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the reservoir.
If fl uid has to be added frequently,
this indicates a fault which must be
checked by a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop as soon as
possible.
Warning lamps
If you have to remove / refi t
the engine style cover, handle it
with care to avoid damaging the
fi xing clips.
Oil level
It is recommended that the oil level be
checked every 3 000 miles (5 000 km)
and topped up if necessary between oil
changes.
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the dipstick.
Dipstick Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer's requirements.
These regular maintenance
operations will keep your vehicle
in good working order. Ask for
advice from a CITROËN dealer or refer
to the servicing and warranty booklet in
the handbook pack.
Checks using the warning
lamps in the instrument panel is
described in chapter 2, refer to
the "Instruments and controls"
section.
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
A = maximum
If you fi ll past this mark,
consult a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
B = minimum
Never allow the level to
fall below this mark.
To maintain the reliability
of engines and emission
control systems, the use
of additives in engine oil
is prohibited.

Cooling system
Only use the fl uid recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging
your engine.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can
operate 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 1/4 of a turn to
release the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and top
up the level with coolant.
If fl uid has to be added frequently,
this indicates a fault which must be
checked by a CITROËN dealer as
soon as possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground with the engine cold. Unscrew
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check the level which must be between
the MIN and MAX marks. In order to regenerate the fi lter, you
are advised to drive at a speed higher
than 40 mph (60 km/h) for at least fi ve
minutes as soon as possible, when
traffi c conditions permit (until the
message disappears and the service
warning lamp goes off).
During regeneration of the particle
emission fi lter, the noise of a relay
operating may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and
if the service warning lamp remains
on, consult a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the expansion
bottle. If more than 1 litre of fl uid is
required to top up the level, have the
system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products of the CITROËN range.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up or replaced with plain water.
Capacity of the screenwash reservoir:
approximately 3 litres.
If your vehicle is fi tted with headlamp
washers, the capacity of the reservoir
is 6 litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
emission filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop without delay.
Waste products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with the skin.
Brake fl uid is harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fl uid
or coolant into drains or into the ground
but into the containers dedicated to this
use at CITROËN dealer (France) or an
authorised waste disposal site.
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the service
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen.
When this occurs with the engine
running it is due to the start of
saturation of the particle emission fi lter
(exceptionally prolonged urban type
driving conditions: low speed, long
traffi c jams, ...).

Carbon filter and passenger compartment filter Particle emission filter (Diesel)
maintenance of the particle emission
fi lter must be carried out by a
CITROËN dealer.
On acceleration after the vehicle has
been running for a prolonged period
at very low speed or at idle, you may,
in exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust. This water vapour does not
have any adverse effect on vehicle
handling or the environment.
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
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.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake
disc / drum wear, consult a CITROËN
dealer.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the parking
brake should be adjusted, even between
services.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Oil filter
Change the fi lter regularly in
accordance with the servicing
schedule.
An access fl ap allows replacement of
the fi lters.
The carbon fi lter permits continuous
and effective fi ltering of dust.
If the passenger compartment fi lter
becomes blocked, this may reduce the
performance of the air conditioning
system and generate unpleasant
odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
passenger compartment fi lter. By
means of its second special active
fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation
of the air breathed by the occupants
and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic
symptoms, unpleasant odours and
greasy deposits).
Refer to the servicing and warranty
booklet for the replacement interval for
these components. Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the
vehicle (urban driving...), change them
twice as often if necessary.

Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Only use products recommended
by CITROËN or products
of equivalent quality and
specifi cation.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, CITROËN selects and offers
specifi c products.
In order to avoid damaging the
electrical units, high pressure washing
to clean the engine compartment is
strictly prohibited.
After washing the vehicle dampness,
or in winter, ice may form on the brake
discs and pads: braking effi ciency may
be reduced. Make some light brake
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes.
If this warning lamp comes
on, bleed the fi lter. Otherwise
bleed regularly each time the
engine oil is changed.
To drain the water, unscrew
the bleed screw located on the fi lter.
Operate until all of the water no longer
fl ows in the transparent pipe, then
tighten the bleed screw.
HDi engines use advanced technology.
All work requires special training, which
is assured by a CITROËN dealer.

1. PARKING THE VEHICLE
- The occupants must get out of the vehicle and wait in a safe location.
- If possible, park the vehicle on level, stable and non-slippery
ground.
- Apply the parking brake, switch off the ignition and engage fi rst or
reverse gear. - If available, place a chock under
the wheel diagonally opposite the
one to be changed.
If the vehicle is fi tted with a towbar,
it is sometimes necessary to raise
the vehicle slightly to make it easier
to remove the spare wheel from its
carrier.
On certain types of ground and/
or if considerable loads are being
transported, call a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.
CHANGING A WHEEL
2. TOOLS
- The tools are stowed in a storage compartment located under the left
hand front seat. If necessary, move
the seat to access the storage
compartment from the rear.
- Unscrew the nut then take out the jack and the wheelbrace.
1. Wheelbrace.
2. Jack.
3. Towing eye.
4. Chock.
The jack and the tool kit are specifi c to
your vehicle. Do not use them for other
purposes.

Snow chains
150
SNOW CHAINS
In wintry conditions, snow chains
improve traction as well as the
behaviour of the vehicle when braking. The snow chains must be fi tted
only to the driving wheels. They
must never be fi tted to "space-
saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in
force in your country on the use
of snow chains and the maximum
running speed authorised. Advice on installation
 If you have to fi t the chains during
a journey, stop the vehicle on a fl at
surface on the side of the road.
 Apply the parking brake and position any wheel chocks to
prevent movement of your vehicle.
 Fit the chains following the instructions provided by the
manufacturer.
 Move off gently and drive for a few moments, without exceeding
30 mph (50 km/h).
 Stop your vehicle and check that the snow chains are correctly
tightened.
Avoid driving on roads that have
been cleared of snow, to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road surface. It is recommended
that before you leave, you practise
fi tting the snow chains on a level and
dry surface. If your vehicle is fi tted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fi xings is in contact with the
wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be
fi tted to the type of wheel fi tted to your
vehicle:
For more information on snow chains,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
