Checks






Checks

The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check that the terminals are clean
and correctl
y tightened, particularly in summer and winter.
Par ticle emissions filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of thepar ticle filter is indicated by the
temporary illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a warning message in the screen.
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 lampgoes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a
low additive level.
On a new vehicle, the first particlefilter regeneration operations may be accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is perfectly 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. Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the ser vicin
g booklet and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the servicing booklet for
details of the replacement inter vals
for these components.
Oil filter
Replace the oil filter each time theengine oil is changed.
Refer to the ser vicing booklet for
details of the replacement inter val for
this component. When carr
ying out work on the battery, refer
to the "Practical information" section for
details of the precautions to be taken before
disconnecting the battery and following itsreconnection. Dependin
g on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g.city driving), replace them twice as often if necessary.y A clogged passenger compar tment filter may
have an adverse effect on the performance
of the air conditioning system and generateundesirable odours.

the list of stations; audio reception is cut

The exterior environment
(hills, buildings, tunnel, car park, belowground...) may prevent reception, even in RDS station tracking mode. This phenomenon is normal in the propagation of radio
waves and is in no way indicative of a fault with the audio system.

Safety
Under-infl ation detection
The under-inflation detection system does not replace the vigilance or the responsibility of the driver. This system does not avoid the need to check the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel) every month as well as before a long journey. Driving with under-inflated tyres impairs road holding, extends braking distances and causes premature tyre wear, particularly under arduous condition (high loading, high speed, long journey).
The inflation pressures defined for your vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label. See the "Identification markings" section. Tyre pressures should be checked when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds). Other wise (when hot), add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown on the label.
Driving with under-inflated tyres increases fuel consumption.
System which automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures in the four tyres, once the vehicle is moving. It compares the information given by the four wheel speed sensors with reference values, which must be reinitialised ever y time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed . The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or more tyres.
