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).
Oil level
The check of the oil level is carried
out with the dipstick, located under
the bonnet. For the position of the
dipstick, refer to the under-bonnet
view on a previous page.
Checking with dipstick
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. 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.To ensure the accuracy of the reading,
your vehicle must be on a level
sur face, with the engine off for at least
30
m

inutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two services (or oil changes). CITROËN
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 km). If you find that the oil level is above the A mark
or below the B mark, do not star t the engine
.
