ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS / EBFD)
The ABS   and   EBFD   (electronic   brake  force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle
  on   braking,   in   particular   on  
poor

  or   slippery   surfaces.
The
 
ABS
  prevents   locking   of   the  
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the

  braking   pressure   wheel   by   wheel.If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle
  on   braking.
If this warning lamp comes
on,
  together   with   the   brake  
and ST

OP warning lamps,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the
  electronic   brake   force   distribution  
which could result in a loss of control of
the

  vehicle   on   braking.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSIST

ANCE (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the  optimum   braking   pressure   to   be  
reached

  more   quickly,   press   the   pedal  
firmly

  without   releasing   it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake
  pedal   is   pressed   down.
This
  alters   the   resistance   of   the   brake  
pedal

  under   your   foot.
To maintain operation of the
emergency
  braking   assistance   system:  
keep

  your   foot   on   the   brake   pedal.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically when
there  is   a   risk   of   wheel   lock.   It   does   not  
reduce

  the   braking   distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice,
oil, etc...)
  the  
ABS
  may   increase   the  
braking

  distance.   When   braking   in  
an emergency

, do not hesitate to
press
  the   brake   pedal   firmly,   without  
releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to

  avoid   an   obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt
  by   slight   vibration   of   the   brake  
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that these are listed by
CITROËN

  for   the   vehicle. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN
dealer
  or   a   qualified   workshop.

Cooling system
Only use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.
Otherwise,
  you   risk   seriously   damaging  
your

  engine.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is controlled
by
  the   engine   fan.  
As
  this   fan   can  
operate

  with   the   ignition   key   removed  
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying

  out   any   work.
Slacken
  the   cap   by   1/4   of   a   turn   to  
release the pressure to prevent any
risk

  of   scalding.   When   the   pressure  
has dropped, remove the cap and top
up

  the   level   with   coolant.
If
  fluid   has   to   be   added   frequently,  
this indicates a fault which must be
checked

  by   a   CITROËN   dealer   as  
soon

  as   possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground  with   the   engine   cold.   Unscrew  
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check

  the   level   which   must   be   between  
the

  MIN   and   MAX   marks. In
  order   to   regenerate   the   filter,   you  are advised to drive at a speed higher
than
  40   mph   (60   km/h)   for   at   least   five  minutes as soon as possible, when
traffic
  conditions   permit   (until   the  
message disappears and the service
warning

  lamp   goes   off).
During regeneration of the particle
emission
  filter,   the   noise   of   a   relay  
operating may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and
if the service warning lamp remains
on, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified

  workshop.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN
and
 
MAX
 
marks
 
on
 
the
 
expansion
 
bottle.

 
If
 
more
 
than
 
1
 
litre
 
of
 
fluid
 
is
 
required to top up the level, have the
system

 
checked
 
by
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer
 
or

 
a
 
qualified
 
workshop.
Screenwash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products   of   the   CITROËN   range.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing,
  this   fluid   must   not   be   topped  
up

  or   replaced   with   plain   water.
Capacity
  of   the   screenwash   reservoir:  
approximately

  3   litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a  CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
workshop

  without   delay.
Waste products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with  the   skin.
Brake
  fluid   is   harmful   to   health   and  
very

  corrosive.
Do
  not   dispose   of   used   oil,   brake   fluid  
or coolant into drains or into the ground
but into the containers dedicated to this
use at a CITROËN dealer (France) or
an

  authorised   waste   disposal   site.
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the service
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen.
When this occurs with the engine
running it is due to the start of
saturation
 
of
 
the
 
particle
 
filter
 
(exceptionally prolonged urban type
driving

 
conditions:
 
low
 
speed,
 
long
 
traffic

 
jams,
 
...).

Good practice
Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with the
  manufacturer's   servicing   schedule.
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.
If this warning lamp comes
on,

 
bleed
 
the
 
filter.
 
Otherwise
 
bleed regularly each time the
engine

 
oil
 
is
 
changed.
HDi engines use advanced
technology.
 
All

 
work
 
requires
 
special training, so should be
entrusted

 
to
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer.
Depending
 
on
 
country
 
of
 
sale.
To drain the water, unscrew the bleed
screw
 
located
 
on
 
the
 
filter.
Operate until all of the water no longer
flows
 
in
 
the
 
transparent
 
pipe,
 
then
 
tighten

 
the
 
bleed
 
screw.
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 of

fers
specific   products.

ENGINE CHARACTERISTICS
The engine characteristics (capacity,
maximum power, maximum power
speed, fuel, CO
2 emissions...) for your vehicle are given in the registration
certificate.
These characteristics correspond
to the values type-approved
on a test bed, under conditions
defined
 
in
 
European   legislation  
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, refer to the
manufacturer's website or sales
brochure

 
for
 
the
  model.   Contact  
a

 
CITROËN
 
dealer   or   a   qualified  
workshop.
WEIGHTS AND TOWED LOADS
These values, expressed in kg, can be found on the manufacturer's VIN plate
or
  label.
The maximum weights and towed
loads for your vehicle can be found on
the
  vehicle's   registration   certificate.
The
  kerb   weight   is   equal   to   the   weight  
without

  load   +   driver   (75   kg)   +   fuel   tank  
filled

  to   90%.
The GTW and towed load values
indicated are valid up to a maximum
altitude
  of   1000   metres.  
The
  value   of  
the towed load mentioned must be
reduced by 10 % for each additional
1000

  metres.
With
  load   transfer,   the   braked   trailer  
weight can be increased, on condition
that the equivalent of this load is
removed from the vehicle so that the
GTW

  is   not   exceeded. High ambient temperatures
may result in a reduction in the
performance of the vehicle in
order
  to   protect   the   engine.   When   the  
ambient temperature is higher than
37 °C,

  limit   the   towed   weight.
Towing with a lightly loaded
vehicle can adversely affect road
holding.
Towing
  a   trailer   increases   braking  
distances.
When towing, the maximum permitted
speed is reduced (comply with the
legislation

  in   force   in   the   country).
The recommended nose weight is
the downward force on the towball
(removable
  with   or   without   tools).
GVW: gross vehicle weight, the
maximum
  authorised   weight.
GTW: gross train weight, the maximum
weight
  for   vehicle   plus   trailer.
The location of the manufacturer's
plate is given in chapter 9,
"Identification
  markings"   section.
In each country, it is imperative that
the maximum towed loads authorised
by local legislation are complied
with.
 
T
o   find   out   your   vehicle's   towing  
capacities and its gross train weight,
consult

  a   CITROËN   dealer.
