used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids
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
authorised waste disposal site.
LEVELS
These regular maintenance operations
will keep your vehicle in good running
order. Ask for advice at a CITROËN dealer
or consult the maintenance and warranty
guide contained in the handbook pack.
To maintain the reliability of engines and
emission control systems, the use of
additives in engine oil is prohibited.
changing the brake fluid
The brake fluid must be changed at
the intervals stated, according to the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fluids recommended by the
manufacturer, which fulfil DOT4 standards.
The level must be between the MIn and
MA
x marks on the reservoir.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a failure which must be checked by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible.
If you have to remove/refit the engine
styling cover, handle it with care to
avoid damaging the fixing clips.
d
ipstick
There are two marks on
the dipstick:
Oil change
It is imperative that this is carried out at the
intervals specified in the manufacturer's
servicing schedule. Ask for advice at at
CITROËN dealer.
Remove the dipstick before filling.
Check the level after filling (never exceed
the maximum mark).
Screw the cap back onto the sump before
closing the bonnet.
Viscosity selection
When topping-up, the oil selected must meet
the manufacturer's requirements.
Warning lamps
Checking by means of the warning
lamps on the instrument panel is
described in the "Ready to go -
Instruments and controls" section.
A
= maximum
If you fill past this mark,
contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
B = minimum
Never allow the level to fall
below this mark.
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up between
changes. The maximum consumption is
0.5 litre per 600 miles (1
000 km). Check
the level with the vehicle level, engine cold,
using the dipstick.

Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with
the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Good practice
Oil filter
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of
driving, in particular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short distances. It may
be necessary to check the thickness of the
pads, even between services.
Brake disc wear
For any information on checking the brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the parking brake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
If this warning lamp comes on,
have the brake pad wear checked
by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. In order to avoid damaging the
electrical units, we strongly advise you
not to use high pressure washing to clean
the engine compartment.
After washing the vehicle dampness, or in
winter, ice may form on the brake discs and
pads: braking efficiency may be reduced.
Make some light brake applications to dry
and de-ice the brakes. Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent quality
and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as
important as the braking system, CITROËN
selects and offers specific products.
Change the filter regularly, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
