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
bars,
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 recommended in the manufacturer's service schedule.
With
a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty your vehicle
b
ecomes polluting; go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
w
ithout delay to have the emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to
t
he legal level.
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.
In
addition, as the cooling system is pressurised,
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
b
y
two
turns to allow the pressure to drop.
W
hen the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap
and
top-up the level.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's r ecommendations.
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.To p p i n g - u p
The reservoir must be topped-up without delay
by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Diesel fuel additive level
(Diesel with particle filter)
The additive reservoir low level is
indicated by fixed illumination of this
w
arning lamp, accompanied by an
a
udible signal and a message that
t
he particle filter additive level is
too low.
The
warning lamp comes on when the ignition
i
s
switched on, or every time the stalk is
o
perated,
until the reservoir is refilled.
Next
time
you stop, refill the screenwash /
h
eadlamp
wash reservoir.
Screenwash/headlamp
wash level low
In the case of vehicles fitted with
headlamp washers, when the fluid
reservoir low level is reached this
warning
lamp comes on in the
in
strument panel, accompanied by an
audible
signal and a message. Avoid
prolonged contact of used oil or
f
luids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to
health
or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers
or onto the ground.
Take
used oil to a CITROËN dealer or
a
qualified workshop (France) or to an
a
uthorised waste disposal site.

Brake wear depends on the style of driving, particularly in the case o
f vehicles used in town, over short
distances.
It may be necessary to have
t
he condition of the brakes checked,
e
ven between vehicle services.
Brake pads
For information on checking brake disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or
a qualified workshop.
Brake disc wear
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality
an
d
sp
ecification.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as those in the
braking
system, CITROËN selects and
o
ffers very specific products.
After
washing the vehicle, dampness,
o
r in wintry conditions, ice can form
on
the brake discs and pads: braking
e
fficiency may be reduced. Make light
b
rake applications to dry and defrost
t
he brakes.
Electric parking brake
For more information, refer to the " Electric
parking brake - Operating faults "
section.
This system does not require any
routine
servicing. However, in the
e
vent of a problem, have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
q
ualified
w
orkshop.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any m
aintenance (no oil change).
Refer
to the manufacturer's service
s
chedule for the checking interval for
t
his
c
omponent.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Refer
to the manufacturer's service
s
chedule for details of the level
checking
interval for this component.
To
avoid damaging the electrical units,
n
ever use a high pressure jet wash in
t
he engine compartment.
Unless
there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
t
he brake fluid level indicates that the brake
p
ads are worn.
