2017 CITROEN C3 AIRCROSS fuel filter

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, etc.). Preferably, use a
roof box.
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. Have your vehicle ser viced regularly
(engine oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger
compartment filter, etc.) and obser ve the
schedule of operations recommended in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR
system is faulty, your vehicle becomes
polluting. Visit a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop as soon as possible to
make your vehicle’s level of nitrogen oxide
emissions compliant to the standard.
When refuelling, do not continue after the 3
rd
cut-off of the nozzle, to avoid any over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after approximately the first 1,850 miles
(3,000
kilometres) that you will see the fuel
consumption settle down to a consistent average.
Do not forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan.

Low fuel levelFixed, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a message. When it first comes on, around
5
litres of fuel remain in the tank.
You are now starting to use the fuel
reserve. You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid running
out of fuel.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, this warning
lamp reappears every time the ignition is switched on,
accompanied by an audible warning and a message.
This audible warning and this message are repeated
with increasing frequency as the level drops towards
" 0 ".
Tank capacity: approximately 45


litres.
Never continue to drive until you run out of fuel as
this could damage the emission control and injection
systems.
Presence of
water in the
Diesel fuel *Fixed.
The Diesel filter contains water. Risk of damaging the fuel injection system on Diesel
engines.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
as soon as possible.
Warning/indicator lamp
StateCause Action/Observations
Par ticle filter
(Diesel) Fixed, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a message about
the risk of particle
filter blockage. This indicates that the particle filter
is beginning to saturate.
Traffic conditions permitting, regenerate the filter by
driving at a speed of at least 37 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.
For more information on Checks and particularly
those related to the particle filter, refer to the
corresponding section.
Fixed, accompanied
by an audible signal
and a message about
the particle filter’s
additive level being
too low. This indicates that the level in the
additive tank is low.
Quickly arrange for a top-up by a CITROËN dealer or
by a qualified workshop.
For more information on Checking levels
and
particularly on the level of additive, refer to the
corresponding section.

When the engine is warm, the temperature of
the coolant is regulated by the fan.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour after
switching off the engine before carrying out any
work.
To avoid the risk of scalding when you need to
top up in an emergency, place a cloth around
the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to
allow the pressure to drop.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the coolant.The cooling fan may star t after
switching off the engine: take care
with articles and clothing that might be
caught by the fan blades.
Fluid specification
The fluid must conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Screenwash fluid level
A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
Top up the fluid when necessary.Fluid specification
The screenwash fluid must be topped up with a
ready for use mix.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a fluid with
antifreeze must be used that is appropriate for
the prevailing conditions, in order to preser ve
the elements of the system (pump, tank, ducts,
e t c .) .
Filling with pure water is prohibited under all
circumstances (risk of freezing, limestone
deposits, etc.).
Diesel fuel additive level
(Diesel with particle filter)
The additive tank minimum level is
indicated by fixed illumination of this
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message that
the particle filter additive level is
too low.
To p p i n g u p
The reser voir must be topped up without delay
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
AdBlue level
An alert is triggered once the reser ve level is
reached.
To avoid the vehicle being immobilised as per
regulations, you must top up with AdBlue.
For more information on AdBlue
® and the SCR
system, and, in particular, topping it up, refer to
the corresponding section.
Checks
Unless otherwise 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.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However, check regularly that the
terminals are correctly tightened
(versions without quick release
terminals) and that the connections
are clean.
