Emergency braking
In the event of a failure of the main service brake   or   in   an   exceptional   situation   (e.g.   driver  
t

aken   ill,   under   instruction,   etc)   a   continuous  
p

ull   on   the   control   lever   will   brake   the   vehicle.  
B

raking   takes   place   while   the   control   lever   is  
b

eing   pulled.   It   is   interrupted   if   the   control   lever  
i

s
 r
eleased.
The
  ABS   and   DSC   systems   provide   stability   of  
t

he   vehicle   during   emergency   braking.
If
  the   emergency   braking   malfunctions,   the  
m

essage   "Parking   brake   control   faulty"   will   be  
d

isplayed.
If
  a   failure   of   the   ABS   and   DSC   systems  
o

ccurs,   signalled   by   the   illumination   of   one  
o

r   both   warning   lamps   in   the   instrument  
p

anel,   then   stability   of   the   vehicle   is   no   longer  
g

uaranteed.
In
  this   event,   stability   must   be   assured   by   the  
d

river   by   repeating   alternate   "pull-release"  
a

ctions on the control lever until the vehicle is
immobilised. The
  emergency   braking   should   only   be  
u

sed   in   an   exceptional   situation.
Repeat
 
this
 
procedure
 
to
 
reactivate
 
automatic
 
ope

ration.
Reactivation
 
of
 
automatic
 
operation
 
is
 
c

onfirmed
 
by
 
the
 
indicator
 
lamp
 
in
 
the
 
i

nstrument
 
panel
 
going
 
off.
Deactivating automatic
operation
In some situations, such as very cold weather o r   towing   (caravan,   recovery),   it   may   be  
n

ecessary   to   deactivate   automatic   operation   of  
t

he   system.

Checking levels
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start at any   time   (even   with   the   ignition   off).
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when the   ignition   is   switched   on   using   the  
o

il   level   indicator   in   the   instrument  
p

anel for vehicles with an electric oil
level
  gauge,   or   using   the   dipstick.Checking using the dipstick
Refer to the "Petrol engine" or "Diesel engine" section   for   the   location   of   the   dipstick   in   the  
e

ngine   compartment   of   your   vehicle.
F
 
T

r

emove   it   completely.
F
 
W

n

on-fluffy   cloth.
F
 
R
efit   the   dipstick   and   push   fully   down,   then  
p

ull   it   out   again   to   make   the   visual   check:  
t

he   correct   level   is   between   the   marks   A
and
  B.
It
 
is
 
normal
 
to
 
top
 
up
 
the
 
oil
 
level
 
between
 
t

wo
 
services
 
(or
 
oil

CITROËN
 
r

ecommends
 
that
 
you

necessary,
 
every
 
3
 
000
 
miles
 
(5

kms).
Check
 
all
 
of
 
these
 
levels
 
regularly,
 
in
 
line
 
with
 
the
 
manufacturer's   service   schedule.   Top   them   up   if   necessary,   unless   other wise   indicated.
If
 
a
 
level
 
drops
 
significantly,
 
have
 
the
 
corresponding   system   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
