26WARNING LAMPS
Every time the engine is started: a series of warning lamps comes on applying a self-checking test.
They go off almost immediately. When the engine is running: the warning lamp becomes a warning sign if it remains on continuously or
flashes. This initial warning may be accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the screen. "Do not ignore these warnings."

FUEL GAUGE
The fuel level is tested every time the
ignition is switched on.
If the gauge is positioned on:
-
f (full):
the capacity of the fuel tank is
approximately 45 litres.
-

e (empty):
the reserve is now being
used, the warning lamp comes on
continuously.
The low fuel warning first comes on when
approximately 6 litres of fuel is left.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
- wait approximately 15 minutes to allow
the engine to cool down in order to check
the level and top it up if necessary. The
cooling system is pressurised. In order to
avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the
cap by two turns to allow the pressure to
drop.
When the pressure has dropped, check the
level and remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone,
contact a CITROËN or a qualified workshop.
EMISSIONS CONTROL
EOBD (European On Board Diagnosis) is a
diagnostics system which meets the exhaust
emissions standards for:
-

CO (carbon monoxide),
-


HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
-


NOx (nitrous oxides) or particles detected

by oxygen sensors placed upstream and
downstream of the catalytic converters.
Refer to the "Checks - Levels" section. Refer to the "Checks - Levels" section.
The driver is warned of any
fault with this emission control
system by flashing of this specific
warning lamp in the instrument
panel.
If the needle enters the red zone, or
if the warning lamp comes on:
The needle is positioned between c (cold)
and h (hot): normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic
conditions, the needle may move close to
the red graduations.
-

stop immediately

, switch off the ignition.
The cooling fan may continue to operate
for a certain time up to approximately
10 minutes.

TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, ETC...
Driving advice
as the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on the
engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the
engine speed and reduce your speed. In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in
neutral.
Cooling: towing a trailer on a slope
increases the coolant temperature.

ACCESSORIES
Towing a trailer

138
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a steep
slope in high temperatures), the engine
automatically limits its power. In this case,
automatic cutting off of the air conditioning
allows the engine power to be saved.If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine
as soon as possible.
ChecksSee the "Levels" section of
chapter 7.
Tyres: check the tyre pressures on the
towing vehicle and the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Brakes: towing increases the braking
distance.
d rive at a moderate speed,
change down early and brake gradually. Side wind: sensitivity to side wind is
increased.
d rive smoothly and at a
moderate speed.
ABS: the system only controls the vehicle,
not the trailer.
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. The air density decreases with
altitude, so reducing the performance of the
engine. The maximum towed load must be
reduced by 10 % for each 1 000 metres of
altitude.
Refer to the "Technical data -
Identification markings" section. Rear parking sensors: the sensors will be
deactivated automatically when an genuine
CITR
o Ë n towbar is used.
Towbar
We recommend the use of genuine
CITR
o Ë n towbars and their harnesses,
which have been tested and approved from
the design stage of your vehicle, and that
the fitting of this equipment is entrusted to a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If this equipment is not fitted by a CITR
o Ë n

dealer

, it is essential that it is fitted using
the electrical pre-equipment located at
the rear of the vehicle and following the
manufacturer's instructions.
The operation of the rear parking sensors is
deactivated automatically when the trailer
cable connector is inserted in the towbar
socket.
When the trailer cable is removed, the rear
parking sensors are re-activated.
Refer to the "Technology on board -
Parking sensors" section.
For information on the maximum
weights and towed loads applicable to
your vehicle, refer to the "Technical data -
Weights" section.

Engine coolant level
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 cooling 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.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the header tank. 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.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap with
integral gauge and check the level which
must be between the MIN and MAX marks.
Screenwash fluid level
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
topping up or replacement of this fluid
should never be with plain water; we
recommend the use of products available
from CITR
o Ë n dealers.
Capacity of the reservoir: approximately
3
litres.
Slacken the cap by two turns 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 or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
Used 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 provided for this purpose
at CITR
o Ë n dealers (France) or at an
authorised waste disposal site.
