Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use a roof box in preference.Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.


At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your summer tyres.


Observe the recommendations on maintenance


Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the door aperture, driver's side. Carry out this check in par ticular:



- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or caravan.


Have your vehicle ser viced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter...) andobser ve the schedule of operations recommended by the manufacturer.


When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle toavoid any over flow.


At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 1 800 miles(3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel consumption settle down toa consistent average.

Additive level (Diesel with
particle emissions filter)
According to your version of instrument panel,
the additive reser voir low level is indicated by:

To p p i ng up

The reser voir must be topped up without delay by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.








Used products
- fixed illumination of the particle emissions filter warning lamp,accompanied by an audible signal, or

- fix
ed illumination of the servicewarning lamp, accompanied byan audible signal and a message
that the par ticle emissions filter additive level is too low.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop (France) or to anauthorised waste disposal site.

Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.

Most of these fluids are harmful tohealth or indeed very corrosive.
Coolant level

The coolant level should be close
to the "MA X" mark but should never exceed it.
When the en
gine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be changed.
Fluid specifi cation
The coolant must conform to themanufacturer's recommendations.
Top up the level when necessary.
The cooling fan may star t after switching off the engine: take care with ar ticles and clothing that mightbecome caught by the fan blades.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised,
wait at least one hour after switching off theengine before carrying out any work.
To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap
by two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and
top up t
he level.
Screenwash fluid level

Fluid specifi cation

For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this
fluid must not be topped up or replaced
with plain water.

Checks

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 ticle emissions 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 o
f this label, in particular with
the Stop & Star t system, indicates the use of
a specific 12 V lead-acid batter
y with special
technology and specification. The involvement
of a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop is essential when replacing or disconnecting thebattery. 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 emissionsfilter may be accompanied by the smell of "burning", w hic h is per fec t ly normal.
Following prolonged operation of thevehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the emission of water vapour atthe exhaust on acceleration. This does not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.
Par ticle emission filter (Diesel)
accompanied by an audible signal and amessage that there is a risk of blockage of
the par ticle 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. dustyatmosphere) 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.
