Coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly.
The check and top-up must only be done with
the engine cold.
A low coolant level presents a risk of serious
damage to your engine.
The coolant level should be close to the "MA X"
mark but should never exceed it.
If the level is close to or below the "MIN" mark,
it is essential to top-up. When the engine is hot, 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 in the event of
an urgent need to top-up, with a cloth around
the cap, unscrew it by two turns to allow the
pressure to drop. When the pressure has
dropped, remove the cap and top-up the level.
Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap
and top-up the level.
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. It is normal to top-up this fluid between
services.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations.

by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
