Checking levels
Take care when working under the bonnet,   as   certain   areas   of   the   engine  
m

ay   be   extremely   hot   (risk   of   burns)   and  
t

he   cooling   fan   could   start   at   any   time  
(

even   with   the   ignition   off).
Engine oil level
The check of the oil level is carried out   with   the   dipstick,   located   under  
t

he   bonnet.   For   the   position   of   the  
d

ipstick,   refer   to   the   under-bonnet  
v

iew   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.
I f   a   level   drops   significantly,   have   the   corresponding   system   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
To
  ensure   the   accuracy   of   the   reading,  
y

our   vehicle   must   be   on   a   level  
s

ur face,   with   the   engine   off   for   at   least  
3

0 minutes.
It
  is   normal   to   top   up   the   oil   level   between  
t

r

ecommends   that   you   check   the   level,   and   top  
u

p   if   necessary,   every   3   000   miles   (5   000   km). If
  you   find   that   the   oil   level   is   above   the   A   mark  
o

r below the B   mark,   do not star t the engine.
-
 
I
f   the   level   is   above   the   MAX
 
mark   (risk  
o

f   engine   damage),   contact   a   CITROËN  
d

ealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
-
 
I
f   the   level   is   below   the   MIN
 
mark,   you  
m

ust   top-up   the   engine   oil.
Refer
  to   the   under-bonnet   view   for   the   location  
o

f   the   dipstick   on   your   vehicle.
F

t

hen   pull   it   out   again   for   a   visual   check   of  
t

he   oil   level:   the   level   must   be   between   the  
t

wo   marks   A   and   B.
