A FEW DRIVING 
RECOMMENDA
TIONS
observe the driving regulations at all 
times and remain vigilant whatever the 
traffic conditions.
Pay close attention to the traffic and 
keep your hands on the wheel so that 
you are ready to react at any time to 
any eventuality
.
On a long journey, a break every two 
hours is strongly recommended.
In difficult weather, drive smoothly, 
anticipate the need to brake and 
increase the distance from other 
vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving 
on flooded roads, as this could cause 
serious damage to the engine or 
gearbox, as well as to the electrical 
systems of your vehicle. If you are obliged to drive through 
water:
-
 
check that the depth of water does 
not exceed 15 cm, taking account 
of waves that might be generated 
by other users,
-
  
deactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
  
drive as slowly as possible without 
stallin
g. In all cases, do not exceed 
6 mph (10 km/h),
-  do not stop and do not switch of f 
the engine.
On leaving the flooded road, as soon 
as circumstances allow, make several 
light brake applications to dry the brake 
discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle, 
contact a CITR
o Ë n  dealer or a 
qualified workshop. Never drive with the parking brake 
applied - Risk of overheating and 
damage to the braking system!
Do not park or run the engine when 
stationary in areas where inflammable 
substances and materials (dry grass, 
dead leaves...) might come into contact 
with the hot exhaust system - Risk of 
fire!
n
 ever leave a vehicle 
unsupervised with the engine 
running. If you have to leave 
your vehicle with the engine running, 
apply the parking brake and put the 
gearbox into neutral or position N or P, 
depending on the type of gearbox.
Important!

CHECKS
Carbon filter and passenger 
compartment filter
An access flap allows replacement of 
the filters.
The carbon filter permits continuous 
and effective filtering of dust.
If the passenger compartment filter 
becomes blocked, this may reduce the 
performance of the air conditioning 
system and generate unpleasant 
odours.
We recommend the use of a combined 
passenger compartment filter. By 
means of its second special active 
filter, it contributes to the purification 
of the air breathed by the occupants 
and the cleanness of the passenger 
compartment (reduction of allergic 
symptoms, unpleasant odours and 
greasy deposits).
Battery
At the start of summer or winter, have 
your battery checked by a CITROËN 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style 
of driving, in particular for vehicles 
which are used in town, over short 
distances. It may be necessary to 
check the thickness of the pads, even 
between services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a 
drop in the brake fluid level indicates 
that the brake pads are worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake 
disc / drum wear, contact a CITROËN 
dealer.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great 
or there is a reduction in the performance 
of the system, the parking brake should be 
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN 
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Refer to theservicing and warranty 
booklet for the replacement interval for 
these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty 
atmosphere...) and the use of the 
vehicle (urban driving...), change them 
twice as often if necessary.

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 
engine oil is changed.
To drain the water, unscrew the bleed 
screw located on the filter.
o
perate until all of the water no longer 
flows in the transparent pipe, then 
tighten the bleed screw.
Particle filter (Diesel)
Maintenance of the particle filter must 
be carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
o
n acceleration after the vehicle has 
been running for a prolonged period 
at very low speed or at idle, you may, 
in exceptional circumstances, notice 
the emission of water vapour at the 
exhaust. This water vapour does not 
have any adverse effect on vehicle 
handling or the environment.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly in 
accordance with the manufacturer's 
servicing schedule.
H
d i engines use advanced 
technology. All work requires 
special training, so should be 
entrusted to a CITROËN dealer.
