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...). 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,
passenger compartment filter...) and observe 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; go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay to have the emissions of nitrogen oxides brought back to
the legal level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of the nozzle to
avoid 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.

Warning/indicator lampis on Cause Action / Observations
STOP fixed, associated with
another warning lamp. The illumination of this warning lamp
is associated with a serious fault with
the braking system, power steering,
automatic gearbox, engine oil
pressure, engine coolant temperature
or a major electrical fault. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
Park, switch off the ignition and call a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Service temporarily,
accompanied by a
message. One or more minor faults for which
there is no specific warning lamp
have been detected. Identify the cause of the fault using the message
displayed in the screen.
You can deal with some problems yourself, such as a
door open or the start of saturation of the particle filter
(as soon as the traffic conditions allow, regenerate
the filter by driving at a speed of at least 40 mph
(60
km/h), until the warning lamp goes off).
For any other problems, such as a fault with the tyre
under inflation detection system, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Diesel additive level
(Diesel engine with
particle filter)
To p p i n g u p
This additive must be topped up by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop without delay.
Used products
A low additive level is indicated by
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a message in the instrument
panel screen.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash fluid
In the case of vehicles fitted with
headlamp washers, the low fluid level
is indicated by an audible signal and
a message in the screen.
Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing,
this fluid must not be topped up with or
replaced with plain water.
Reservoir capacity (depending on version).

s
creenwash fluid: approximately 3.5 litres,
-

s
creenwash and headlamp wash fluid:
approximately 6.15 litres.
Top up the reservoir when you next stop
the
vehicle. 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.

Checks
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.
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.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often if
necessary.
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours. Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Oil filter
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for details of the replacement interval for this
component.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
For more information and the precautions to
take before starting work on the 12 V batter y ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are
fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of
specific technology and specification.
Its replacement should be carried out
only by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for the checking interval for this component.
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule
for the checking interval for this component.
Particle filter system (Diesel)
Complementary to the catalytic converter,
this filter makes an active contribution to the
preservation of air quality by trapping unburnt
pollutant particles. Black exhaust fumes are
thus no longer emitted.
After prolonged idling or driving at very low
speeds, you may occasionally notice water
vapour being emitted from the exhaust when
accelerating. This is of no consequence to the
running of the vehicle or to the environment.
If there is risk of blockage, a message
appears in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by an audible signal and
illumination of the service warning lamp.
This alert tells you that the particle filter
is approaching saturation (in conditions
of urban driving of exceptionally long
duration: low speeds, traffic jams etc.)
To regenerate the filter, it is advised to
drive as soon as possible, when traffic
conditions permit, at a speed of 40 mph
(around 60 km/h) or more for at least
five minutes (until the alert message
disappears).
If this alert persists, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
