2013 Citroen C3 engine oil level

Checks
142
According to your version of instrument panel, the start of
saturation of the par ticle emissions filter is indicated by:

- fixed illumination of the par ticleemissions filter warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible signal, or

- temporary illumination of
the ser vice warning lamp,

As soon as the traffic conditions permit, regenerate
the filter by driving at a speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, refer to the "Additivelevel" section.







Checks
12 V battery

The battery does not require anymaintenance.
However, check that the terminals
are clean and correctly tightened,
particularly in summer and winter.
The presence of this label, in particular with
the Stop & Star t s
ystem, indicates the use of a specific 12 V lead-acid battery with special
technology and specification. The involvement
of a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop isessential when replacing or disconnecting the battery. When carr
ying out work on the battery, refer
to the "12 V battery" section for details of theprecautions to be taken before disconnecting
the battery and following its reconnection. Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the MAINTENANCE AND WARR ANT Y GUIDE and accordin
g to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
On a new vehicle, the first operations of regeneration of the par ticle emissions filter may be accompanied by the smellof "burning", which is per fectly normal. Following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances,notice the emission of water vapour at the exhaust on acceleration. This does not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
accompanied by an audible signal and amessage that there is a risk of blockage of
the particle emissions filter.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the MAINTENANCE AND
WARR ANT Y GUIDE for details of
the replacement intervals for thesecomponents.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city
driving), replace them twice as often if necessar y.y A clogged passenger compar tment filter may have
an adverse effect on the performance of the air conditioning system and generate undesirableodours.

Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the MAINTENANCE AND
WARR ANT Y GUIDE for details of
the replacement interval for thiscomponent.
