battery
First check that the slave battery has a nominal voltage   of   12   V   and   a   capacity   at   least   equal   to  
t

hat   of   the   discharged   battery.

Practical information

Checking levels
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.
Engine oil level
It is normal to top up the oil level between two   services   (or   oil   changes).   CITROËN  
r

ecommends   that   you   check   the   level,   and   top  
u

p   if   necessary,   every   3   000   miles   (5   000   kms).
The
  check   is   carried   out   either   when  
t

he   ignition   is   switched   on   using   the  
o

il   level   indicator   in   the   instrument  
p

anel   for   vehicles   so   equipped,   or  
u

sing   the   dipstick.
To   ensure   that   the   reading   is   correct,  
y

our   vehicle   must   be   parked   on   a   level  
s

ur face   with   the   engine   having   been   off  
f

or   more   than   30   minutes.
Take   care   when   working   under   the  
b

onnet,   as   certain   areas   of   the   engine  
m

ay   be   extremely   hot   (risk   of   burns)  
a

nd   the   cooling   fan   could   start   at   any  
t

ime   (even   with   the   ignition   off).
Checking using the dipstick
A = MA X
B   =   MIN If you find that the level is above the A
  mark   or  
belo

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

f   damage   to   the   engine),   contact   a  
C

ITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
-
I
f the level is below the MI n
  mark,   you  
m

ust   top   up   the   engine   oil.
Refer
 
to
 
the
 
"Petrol   engine"   or   "Diesel   engine"  
s

ection
 
for
 
the   location   of   the   dipstick   in   the  
e

  dipstick   and   push   fully   down,   then  
p

ull
 
it
 
out   again   to   make   the   visual   check:  
t

he
 
correct   level   is   between   the   marks   A
and B .
Oil grade
Before topping-up the oil or changing the oil, c
heck   that   the   oil   is   the   correct   grade   for   your  
e

ngine   and   conforms   to   the   manufacturer's  
r

ecommendations.
