op up the level to the "MA X" mark.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Be aware of the risk of scalding when
topping up the coolant. Do not fill above
the maximum level (indicated on the
reservoir).
Engine oil level indicator
On versions fitted with an electric oil level
indicator, the state of the engine oil level is
displayed in the instrument panel for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched on, at
the same time as the ser vicing information.The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and the
engine has been stopped for more than
30
minutes.
Oil level correct
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel.
Low oil level
If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using
the dipstick, the level must be topped up to
avoid damage to the engine.
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel.
Oil level indicator fault
Dipstick
To locate the dipstick and the oil filler
cap for the Diesel engine , refer to the
corresponding section.
A = maximum; never
exceed this level.
B = minimum; top up
the level via the oil filler
hole, with the oil type
that is suitable for your
engine.
This is indicated by a message in the
instrument panel. Contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.

it will lock itself again automatically after
about thirty seconds unless a door has
been opened.
And if your vehicle has an alarm, this will
be reactivated (with interior volumetric

deactivated).
The folding and unfolding of the door
mirrors by the remote control can be
deactivated by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop. As a safety measure (with children on
board), never leave the vehicle without
taking your
K
eyless Entry and Starting
remote control with you, even for a short
period.
Be aware of the risk of theft when the
K
eyless Entry and Starting remote control
is in the recognition zone with the vehicle
unlocked.
In order to preser ve the charge of the

Locating your vehicle
This function allows you to identify your vehicle
from a distance, particularly in poor light. Your
vehicle must have been locked for more than
five seconds.
Remote operation of lighting
A short press on this button allows
you to switch on the lighting from
a distance (lighting the sidelamps,
dipped beam headlamps and number
plate lamps).
A second press on this button before
the end of the timed period cancels

Operating fault
In the event of a fault with the
sunshine sensor, the lamps come on
and this warning lamp lights up in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal and/or a message.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In fog or snow, the sunshine sensor may
detect sufficient light. In this case, the
lighting will not come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located
on the dashboard or at the top of the
windscreen behind the rear view mirror
(depending on equipment); the associated
functions would no longer be controlled.
Daytime running lamps/
sidelamps
The front lamps light up automatically when the
engine starts.
They provide the following functions:
-
D
aytime running lamps (lighting control
stalk at " AUTO" position with adequate light
level).
-
S
idelamps (lighting control stalk at " AUTO"
position with low light level or "Sidelamps
only" or "Dipped/main beam headlamps").
The LEDs are brighter when operating as
daytime running lamps.
Parking lamps
Automatic illumination of
headlamps
When a low level of ambient light is detected
by a sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps,
sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are
switched on automatically, without any action
on the part of the driver. They may also come
on if rain is detected, at the same time as
automatic operation of the windscreen wipers.
As soon as the brightness returns to a
sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers
are switched off, the lamps are switched off
automatically.

of switching off the ignition, operate the
lighting control stalk up or down, depending

parking on the right, push the lighting
control stalk downwards; the left-hand
sidelamps come on).
This is confirmed by an audible signal and
illumination of the corresponding direction
indicator lamp in the instrument panel.

Electronic stability control
(ESC)
Electronic stability control programme
incorporating the following systems:
-
A
nti-lock braking system (ABS) and
Electronic brake force distribution (EBFD).
-
E
mergency braking assistance (EBA).
-
A
nti-slip regulation (ASR).
-
D
ynamic stability control (DSC).
-
A
utomatic post-collision braking (APCB).
-
T
railer stability assist (TSA).
Definitions
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
and electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD)
These systems improve the stability and
manoeuvrability of your vehicle when braking
and contribute towards improved control in
corners, in particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the event of
emergency braking.
The EBFD system manages the braking
pressure wheel by wheel.
Emergency braking assistance
(EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to
reach the optimum braking pressure more
quickly and therefore reduce the stopping
distance.
It is triggered in relation to the speed at which
the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a
reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an
increase in braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
This system optimises traction in order to
avoid wheel slip by acting on the brakes of
the driving wheels and on the engine. It also
improves the directional stability of the vehicle
on acceleration.
Dynamic stability control (DSC)
If there is a difference between the path
followed by the vehicle and that required by the
driver, this system monitors each wheel and
automatically acts on the brake of one or more
wheels and on the engine to return the vehicle
to the required path, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
Trailer stability assist (TSA)
This system allows control of the vehicle to be
retained when towing a trailer, so as to avoid
the risk of snaking.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
The fixed illumination of this warning
lamp signals that there is a fault with
the ABS.
Illumination of this warning lamp,
coupled with the STOP and ABS
warning lamps, accompanied by
the display of a message and an
audible signal, signals that there is a
fault with the electronic brake force
distribution (EBFD).
The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive
carefully at moderate speed.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
