Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest
items  in   the   bottom   of   the   boot,   as   close   as   possible   to   the  
rear

  seats.
Limit
  the   loads   carried   in   the   vehicle   and   reduce   wind  
resistance

  (roof   bars,   roof   rack,   bicycle   carrier,   trailer...).  
Use

  a   roof   box   in   preference.
Remove
  roof   bars   and   roof   racks   after   use.
At
  the   end   of   winter,   remove   snow   tyres   and   refit   your  
summer

  tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the  label   in   the   door   aperture,   driver's   side.
Carry
  out   this   check   in   particular:
-
 
before
  a   long   journey,
-

at each change of season,
-

 
after
  a   long   period   out   of   use.
d

on't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or
caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil
filter,
  air   filter,   passenger   compartment   filter...)   and  
observe

  the   schedule   of   operations   recommended   in   the  
manufacturer's

  service   schedule.
With
  a   BlueHDi   Diesel   engine,   if   the   SCR   system   is  
faulty

  your   vehicle   becomes   polluting;   go   to   a   CITROËN  
dealer

  or   a   qualified   workshop   without   delay   to   have   the  
emissions

  of   nitrous   oxides   brought   back   to   the   legal   level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of
the
  nozzle   to   avoid   any   overflow.
At
  the   wheel   of   your   new   vehicle,   it   is   only   after   the   first  
1

  800   miles   (3   000   kilometres)   that   you   will   see   the   fuel  
consumption

  settle   down   to   a   consistent   average.

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,
 
...).

Good practice
Only use products recommended by CITRo Ë n or products of equivalent
quality
  and   specification.
In
  order   to   optimise   the   operation  
of

  units   as   important   as   the   braking  
system,

  CITROËN   selects   and   offers  
specific

  products.
Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with the
  manufacturer's   servicing   schedule.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical units, high pressure
washing to clean the engine
compartment
  is   strictly   prohibited.
After
  washing   the   vehicle   dampness,  
or

 
in
  winter,   ice   may   form   on   the   brake  
discs

  and   pads:   braking   efficiency   may  
be

 
reduced.   Make   some   light   brake  
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes.
If

 
this
 
warning
 
lamp
 
comes
 
on,

 
bleed
 
the
 
filter.
 
Otherwise
 
bleed

 
regularly
 
each
 
time
 
the

is

technology.
 
All

 
work
 
requires
 
special training, so should be

to
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer.
