Engine oil level indicator *


Oil level incorrect

This is indicated by the display of the message
"Oil level incorrect" in the instrument panel
screen, accompanied by the ser vice warning
lamp and an audible signal.
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
avoid damage to the engine.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section.


Oil level indicator fault

This is signalled by the display of the message "Oil
level measurement invalid" in the instrument panel.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

In the event of a fault with the electric indicator,
the oil level is no longer monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
Refer to the "Checking levels" section.
On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the state of the engine oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds, after the ser vicing information.
The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and the
engine has been off for more than
30 minutes.

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
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles with and electric oil
level gauge, or using the dipstick.

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 kms).
To ensure that the reading is correct,
your vehicle must be on level ground
and the engine has been off for more
than 30 minutes.
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.

Checking using the dipstick

Refer to the "Petrol engine" or "Diesel engine"
section for the location of the dipstick in the
engine compartment of your vehicle.


- Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and
remove it completely.

- Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean
non-fluffy cloth.

- Refit the dipstick and push fully down, then
pull it out again to make the visual check:
the correct level is between the marks A

and B
.


A
= MA X


B
= MIN

If you find that the level is above the A
mark or
below the B
mark, do not star t the engine
.


- If the level is above the MAX
mark (risk
of damage to the engine), contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

- If the level is below the MIN
mark, you
must top up the engine oil.
