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 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 nitrogen 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
c
ap
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 b
y 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
t
oo 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 h
eadlamp washers, when the fluid r
eservoir low level is reached this
w
arning lamp comes on in the
i
nstrument panel, accompanied by an
a
udible signal and a message. Avoid
prolonged contact of used oil or
f
luids with the skin.
Most
of these fluids are harmful to
h
ealth or indeed very corrosive.
Do
not discard used oil or fluids into
s
ewers or onto the ground.
Take
used oil to a CITROËN dealer or
a
qualified workshop (France) or to an
a
uthorised waste disposal site.

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However,
check that the terminals
a
re clean and correctly tightened,
p
articularly in summer and winter.Refer
to the manufacturer's s
ervice schedule for details of the
r
eplacement intervals for these
c
omponents.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the engine oil is changed.
Refer
to the manufacturer's
s
ervice schedule for details of
t
he replacement interval for this
c
omponent.
Oil filterThe presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates the u
se of a specific 12 V lead-acid battery
w
ith special technology and specification.
T
he involvement of a CITROËN dealer
o
r a qualified workshop is essential when
r
eplacing or disconnecting the battery.
Unless
other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty a
tmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city d
riving),
r
eplace them twice as often if necessar y .
A
clogged passenger compartment filter may have
a
n adverse effect on the per formance of the air
c
onditioning system and generate undesirable
o
dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the fixed
i
llumination of this warning lamp
a
ccompanied by a warning message.
As
soon as the traffic conditions permit,
r
egenerate the filter by driving at a
s
peed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
t
he
warning lamp goes off.
If
the warning lamp stays on, this
i
ndicates a low additive level.
For
more information on Checking
levels
and the Diesel additive level in
p
articular, refer to the corresponding
s
ection.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter
regeneration operations may be
a
ccompanied by a "burning" smell,
w
hich is per fectly normal.
Following
prolonged operation of the
v
ehicle at very low speed or at idle,
y
ou
may, in exceptional circumstances,
n
otice the emission of water vapour at
t
he
exhaust on acceleration. This does
n
ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
the environment.
When
carrying
out
work
on
the
battery,
refer
t
o the " 12 V batter y "
section
for
details
of
the
p
recautions
to
be
taken
before
disconnecting
t
he
battery
and
following
its
reconnection.
