Practical information
Fitting a wheel
After changing a wheel
When using the "space-saver" spare
wheel, do not exceed a speed of
50 mph (80 km/h).
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and
replace it on the vehicle as soon as
possible.
List of operations
)
Put the wheel in place on the hub.
)
Screw in the bolts fully by hand.
)
Pre-tighten the security bolt using the
wheelbrace 1
fitted with the security
socket 5
(if your vehicle is equipped with
security wheel bolts).
)
Pre-tighten the other bolts using the
wheelbrace 1
only.
Fitting snow tyres
If you equip your vehicle with snow
tyres fitted on steel wheel rims, special
bolts available from your CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop must
be used.
If the replacement of a tyre is
necessary on 4-wheel drive versions,
it is recommended that all four tyres be
replaced at the same time, ensuring
that the same make, model and size is
used on all wheels.
This is because using tyres of different
sizes, structure or rate of wear could
damage transmission components.

Changing a bulb
For bulbs that have alignment lugs
(H1, H7...) ensure that they are
fitted correctly for the best lighting
performance. The headlamps have
polycarbonate lenses with
a protective coating:
)
do not clean them using
a dr y or abrasive cloth,
nor with a detergent or
solvent product,
)
use a sponge and soapy water,
)
when using a high pressure
washer on persistent marks,
do not keep the lance directed
towards the lamps or their
edges for too long, so as
not to damage their protective
coating and seals.
)
Do not touch the bulb directly with
your fingers, use lint-free cloths.
Changing a bulb should only be done
after the headlamp has been switched
off for a few minutes (risk of serious
burns).
It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs in order not
to damage the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specification.
Risk of electrocution
Replacement of the xenon bulbs
(D1S-35W) must be carried out by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Practical information
The fitting of electrical equipment
or accessories which are not
recommended by CITROËN may result
in a failure of your vehicle's electronic
system and excessive electrical
consumption.
Please note this precaution. You
are advised to contact a CITROËN
representative to be shown the range
of recommended equipment and
accessories.
Installation of radio
communication
transmitters
Before installing any after-market radio
communication transmitter, you can
contact a CITROËN dealer for the
specification of transmitters which can
be fitted (frequency, maximum power,
aerial position, specific installation
requirements), in line with the Vehicle
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive
(2004/104/EC).
Depending on the legislation in force
in the country, it may be compulsory
to have a high visibility safety vest,
warning triangle, breathalyzers and
spare bulbs and fuses available in the

Checks
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).
Oil level
The check of the the level is done
out with the dipstick, located under
the bonnet. Refer to the description
of your engine compartment for the
position of the dipstick.
Engine oil change
Refer to the maintenance and warranty guide
for details of the inter val for this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, the use of
additives in the engine oil is prohibited.
Oil specifi cation
The oil must be the correct grade for your
engine and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the maintenance and warranty guide. 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.
Dipstick
There are two marks on the dipstick:
A
= maximum
If the level is above this
mark, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified
workshop.
B
= minimum
Top up the level through the
oil filler orifice, using the
correct grade of oil for your
engine. The level must never
be below this mark.
This check will only be correct if the vehicle is
on level ground and the engine has been off for
more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two ser vices (or oil changes). CITROËN
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 km).
After topping up the oil, the check when
switching on the ignition with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel is not valid
during the 30 minutes after topping up.
