CHECKS
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
emissions fi lter is indicated by:
- fi xed illumination of the par-
ticle emissions fi lter warning
lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
that there is a risk of blockage
of the particle emissions fi lter.
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specifi c 12 V lead-acid bat-
tery with special technology and specifi -
cation. The involvement of a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop is essen-
tial when replacing or disconnecting the
battery. On a new vehicle, the fi rst op-
erations of regeneration of the
particle emissions fi lter may
be accompanied by the smell
of "burning", which is perfectly
normal.
Following prolonged operation
of the vehicle at very low speed
or at idle, you may, in excep-
tional circumstances, notice the
emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This
does not affect the behaviour of
the vehicle or the environment. As soon as the traffi c conditions per-
mit, regenerate the fi lter 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 "Additive level" section.
Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance with
the maintenance and warranty guide
and according to your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed work-
shop.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the maintenance and
warranty guide for details of
the replacement intervals for
these components.
Depending on the environ-
ment (e.g. dusty atmosphere)
and the use of the vehicle
(e.g. city driving), replace
them twice as often if necessary
.
A clogged passenger compartment fi l-
ter may have an adverse effect on the
performance of the air conditioning sys-
tem and generate undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Replace the oil fi lter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the maintenance and
warranty guide for details of
the replacement interval for
this component.
12 V battery
The battery does not require
any maintenance.
However, check that the ter-
minals are clean and correctly
tightened, particularly in sum-
mer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery,
refer to the "12 V battery" section for
details of the precautions to be taken
before disconnecting the battery and
following its reconnection.
