H owever,   check   regularly   that   the   terminals  
a

re   correctly   tightened   (versions   without   quick  
r

elease   terminals)   and   that   the   connections  
a

re   clean.Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for details of the
replacement
  intervals   for   these  
c

omponents.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the e ngine   oil   is   changed.

O ther wise,   have   them   checked   by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
Depending
  on   the   environment   (e.g.   dusty  
a

tmosphere)   and   the   use   of   the   vehicle  
(e.g.
  city   driving),   replace them twice as often
if necessary .
A
  clogged   passenger   compartment   filter   may  
h

ave   an   adverse   effect   on   the   per formance  
o

f   the   air   conditioning   system   and   generate  
u

ndesirable
 o
dours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the
particle filter is indicated by the
fixed  illumination   of   this   warning  
l

amp   accompanied   by   a   warning  
m

essage.
As
 
soon
 
as
  the   traffic   conditions   permit,  
r

egenerate
 
the   filter   by   driving   at   a   speed   of   at  
l

east
 
40
 
mph   (60   km/h)   until   the   warning   lamp  
g

oes
 
off.
If
 
the
 
warning   lamp   stays   on,   this   indicates   a  
l

ow
 
additive   level.

regeneration   operations   may   be  
a

ccompanied   by   a   "burning"   smell,  
w

hich   is   per fectly   normal.
Following
  prolonged   operation   of   the  
v

ehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you
 
may,   in   exceptional   circumstances,  
n

otice   the   emission   of   water   vapour   at  
t

he
 
exhaust   on   acceleration.   This   does  
n

ot affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or
 
the   environment.
When
 
carrying
 
out
 
any
 
operation
 
on
 
the
