SERVICE INDICATOR
This programmes service intervals
according to the use of the vehicle.More than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due
Example: 4 800 miles/km remain
before the next service is due. When
the ignition is switched on and for a
few seconds, the screen shows:
A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed
(depending on version), then the total
distance recorder resumes normal
operation showing the total and trip
distances.
Less than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due
Each time the ignition is switched on and for a
few seconds, the spanner flashes and the number
of miles/kilometres remaining is displayed:
A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed
(depending on version), then the total
distance recorder resumes normal
operation and the spanner remains on.
This indicates that a service should be
carried out shortly.
Service overdue
Operation
A few moments after the ignition
has been switched on, the spanner
indicating a service operation comes
on; the display for the total distance
recorder gives (in round figures) the
distance remaining before the next
service.
The points at which a service is due
are calculated from the last indicator
zero reset.
The point at which a service is due is
determined by two parameters:
-
the distance travelled,
-
the time which has elapsed since
the last service. The distance remaining before the
next service may be weighted by
the time factor
, depending on the
type of driving. With the engine running the spanner
remains on until the service has been
carried out.
For
b lueH d i d iesel versions, this
alert is also accompanied by the fixed
illumination of the Service warning
lamp, on switching on the ignition. Each time the ignition is
switched on and for a few
seconds, the spanner
flashes and the excess
distance is displayed.
For
b lueH d i d iesel versions, the
spanner can also come on early,
according the level of deterioration
of the engine oil. Deterioration of the
engine oil depends on the conditions of
use of the vehicle.

GENERAL POINTS RELATING
T
O CHILD SEATS
Although one of CITROËN main
criteria when designing your vehicle,
the safety of your children also
depends on you.
*
The regulations on carrying children
are specific to each country
. Refer to
the legislation in force in your country.
For maximum safety, please observe
the following recommendations:
-
in accordance with European
regulations,
all children under the
age of 12 or less than one and
a half metres tall must travel in
approved child seats suited to
their weight, on seats fitted with a
seat belt or ISOFIX mountings*,
-
statistically
, the safest seats in
your vehicle for carrying children
are the rear seats,
-
a child weighing less than 9 kg
must travel in the "rearward
facing" position both in the front
and in the rear
.

For more information about
weights and towed loads, refer to
chapter 9, "Weights" section.
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight is close to the
maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the coolant temperature.As the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
You should therefore use a high gear
to lower the engine speed and reduce
your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel:
gearbox in neutral.
