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 BlueH
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 BlueH
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.

Oil change
This must be carried out at
the intervals specified in the
manufacturer's servicing schedule. Ask
for advice from a CITROËN dealer.
Remove the dipstick before filling.
Check the level after filling (never
exceed the max mark).
Refit the oil filler cap before closing the

Changing the brake fluid
The brake fluid must be changed at
the intervals stated, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fluids recommended by the
manufacturer, which meet the
DOT4 standard.
The level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the reservoir.
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.
Warning lamps
If you have to remove /
refit the engine style cover, handle
it with care to avoid damaging the
fixing clips.
Oil level
It is recommended that the oil level be
checked every 3 000 miles (5 000 km)
and topped up if necessary between oil
changes.
Check the level with the vehicle level,
engine cold, using the dipstick.
Dipstick
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet the requirements specified in the

These regular maintenance
operations will keep your vehicle
in good working order. Ask for
advice from a CITROËN dealer or refer

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.
