manufacturer's recommendations.
Power steering or power
steering and suspension
fluid level
For topping up, it is necessary to go
to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be close
to the "MA X" mark but should never
exceed it.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be replaced at routine services.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations. The cooling fan may star t after switching
off the engine: take care with ar ticles and
clothing that might be caught by the fan
blades.
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 pressure to drop. When
the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and
top up the level. When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
