Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the bottom   of   the   boot,   as   close   as   possible   to   the   rear   seats.
Limit
  the   loads   carried   in   the   vehicle   and   reduce   wind   resistance   (roof  
b

ars,   roof   rack,   bicycle   carrier,   trailer...).   Use   a   roof   box   in   preference.
Remove
  roof   bars   and   roof   racks   after   use.
At
  the   end   of   winter,   remove   snow   tyres   and   refit   your   summer   tyres.
Observe the recommendations on
maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the   door   aperture,   driver's   side.
Carry
  out   this   check   in   particular:
-
 
b
efore   a   long   journey,
-
 
a
t   each   change   of   season,
-
 
a
fter   a   long   period   out   of   use.
Don't
  forget   the   spare   wheel   and   the   tyres   on   any   trailer   or   caravan.
Have
  your   vehicle   serviced   regularly   (engine   oil,   oil   filter,   air   filter,  
p

assenger   compartment   filter...)   and   observe   the   schedule   of  
o

perations   in   the   personalised   servicing   schedule   for   your   vehicle.
With
  a   BlueHDi   Diesel   engine,   if   the   SCR   system   develops   a   fault,  
y

our   vehicle   becomes   polluting;   go   to   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop   without   delay   to   have   the   emissions   of   nitrous   oxides   brought  
w

ithin   the   limits   set   by   the   directive.
When
  refuelling,   do   not   continue   after   the   third   cut-off   of   the   nozzle   to  
a

void   any   over flow.
At
  the   wheel   of   your   new   vehicle,   it   is   only   after   the   first   1   800   miles  
(3
  000   kilometres)   that   you   will   see   the   fuel   consumption   settle   down   to  
a

  consistent   average.

Coolant level
The coolant level should be close to   the   "MA X"   mark   but   should   never  
e

xceed   it.

 w

ait
 
at
 
least   one   hour   after   switching   off   the
 e

ngine
 
before   carrying   out   any   work.
To
 
avoid
 
any   risk   of   scalding,   unscrew   the   cap   by
 t

wo
 
turns
 
to   allow   the   pressure   to   drop.   When   the
 p

ressure
 
has   dropped,   remove   the   cap   and   top
 u

p
 
the
 
level.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be replaced at routine services.
The cooling fan may star t after switching
off the engine: take care with ar ticles and
clothing that might be caught by the fan
blades. When   the   engine   is   warm,   the   temperature   of  
t

he   coolant   is   regulated   by   the   fan.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the ma
nufacturer's r ecommendations.
Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing, this   fluid   must   not   be   topped   up   or   replaced
