Cooling system
Only use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.
Otherwise,
you risk seriously damaging
your
engine.
When
the engine is warm, the
temperature
of the coolant is controlled
by
the engine fan.
As
this fan can
operate
with the ignition key removed
and
because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying
out any work.
Slacken
the cap by 1/4 of a turn to
release the pressure to prevent any
risk
of scalding. When the pressure
has
dropped, remove the cap and top
up
the level with coolant.
If
fluid has to be added frequently,
this
indicates a fault which must be
checked
by a CITROËN dealer as
soon
as possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground with the engine cold. Unscrew
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check
the level which must be between
the
MIN and MAX marks. In
order to regenerate the filter, you are advised to drive at a speed higher
than
40 mph (60 km/h) for at least five minutes
as soon as possible, when
traffic
conditions permit (until the
message
disappears and the service
warning
lamp goes off).
d
uring regeneration of the particle
emission
filter, the noise of a relay
operating
may be heard under the
dashboard.
If
the message is still displayed and
if
the service warning lamp remains
on, contact a CITR
o Ë n dealer or a
qualified
workshop.
Topping up
The
level
must
be
between
the
MIN
and
MAX
marks
on
the
expansion
bottle.
If
more
than
1
litre
of
fluid
is
required to top up the level, have the
system
checked
by
a
CITROËN
dealer
or
a
qualified
workshop.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products of the CITROËN range.
For
optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing,
this fluid must not be topped
up
or replaced with plain water.
Capacity
of the screenwash reservoir:
approximately
3 litres.
If
your vehicle is fitted with headlamp
washers, the capacity of the reservoir
is
6 litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
without delay.
Waste products
avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with the skin.
Brake
fluid is harmful to health and
very
corrosive.
Do
not dispose of used oil, brake fluid
or coolant into drains or into the ground
but into the containers dedicated to this
use at a CITR
o Ë n dealer (France) or
an
authorised waste disposal site.
The
minimum
level
of
this
additive
is indicated by lighting of the service
warning
lamp,
accompanied
by
an
audible
signal
and
a
message
in
the
screen.
When this occurs with the engine
running it is due to the start of
saturation
of
the
particle
filter
(exceptionally prolonged urban type
driving
conditions:
low
speed,
long
traffic
jams,
...).
