a
message and an
audible signal. Indicates a
serious fault with the
engine, braking system, power
steering, automatic gearbox or
a
major electrical fault.Carry out (1) and then (2).
Engine oil
pressure Fixed.
There is a
fault with the engine
lubrication system. Carry out (1) and then (2).
Maximum
coolant
temperature Fixed.
The temperature of the cooling
system is too high. Carry out (1), then wait until the engine has cooled
down before topping up to the required level if
necessary. If the problem persists, carry out (2).
Battery charge Fixed. The battery charging circuit has
a
fault (dirty or loose terminals, slack
or cut alternator belt, etc.). Clean and retighten the terminals. If the warning
lamp does not go off when the engine is started, carry
out (2).

Retrieving the service
information
You can access the ser vice information at any
time in the instrument panel.The distance indicated (in miles or
kilometres) is calculated according to the
distance covered and the time elapsed
since the last ser vice.
The alert may be triggered close to a
due
date.
F

P
ress this button to temporarily display the
service information.
Engine oil level indicator
(Depending on version.)
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 after switching the ignition on, after
the ser vicing information, in the form of
messages. The level read will only be correct if the
vehicle is on level ground and the engine
has been off for more than 30
minutes.
Low oil level
This is indicated by the display of a message
p rompting you to top up, accompanied by the
Service warning lamp and an audible signal.
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.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Oil level indicator fault
This is signalled by the display of the " Oil
level measurement invalid " message in the
instrument panel.
Contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop. In the event of a
fault with the electric
indicator, the oil level is no longer
monitored.
If the system is faulty, you must check the
engine oil level using the manual dipstick
located under the bonnet.
For more information on Checking levels ,
refer to the corresponding section.
Engine coolant temperature
gauge
With the engine running:
- i n zone A , the temperature is correct,
-

i
n zone B , the temperature is too high; the
associated warning lamp and the central
STOP warning lamp come on in red in the
instrument panel, accompanied by the
display of a


message and an audible signal.

In case of towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
d emands on the towing vehicle and
requires extra care from the driver.
Respect the maximum towable weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load
by 10% per 1,000
metres of altitude; the
decreased air density at altitude reduces
engine performance.
New vehicle: do not pull a
trailer
before having driven at least 620
miles
(1,000


kilometres). If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1
to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety
conditions allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,
contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
F

D
istribute the load in the trailer so that the
heaviest items are as close as possible to
the axle and the nose weight (at the point
where it joins your vehicle) approaches the
maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Ty r e s
F Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures.
Lighting
F Check the electrical signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your
vehicle.
If a
genuine CITROËN towing device is
used, the rear parking sensors will be
deactivated automatically to avoid the
audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill increases the
t emperature of the coolant. The maximum
towable load depends on the gradient and the
exterior temperature. The cooling capacity of
the fan does not increase with engine speed.
F

R
educe speed and lower the engine speed,
so as to limit the heating-up.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant
temperature.
If this warning lamp and the STOP
warning lamp come on, stop the
vehicle and switch off the engine as
soon as possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing
a trailer. To avoid overheating of the brakes, the
use of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind the increased susceptibility to the
wind that the vehicle will have.

During the 30 minutes after topping up the
o il, the check per formed with the oil level
indicator in the instrument panel when the
ignition is switched on is not valid.
Brake fluid
The level of this fluid should be close
to the " MAX" mark. If not, check the
brake pad wear.
To know how often the brake fluid should be
replaced, refer to the manufacturer's servicing
schedule.
Engine coolant
Check the engine coolant level
regularly.
It is normal to top up this fluid
between two services. The check and top-up must only be done with
the engine cold.
A low level presents a
risk of serious damage
to the engine.
The level of this fluid should be close to the
" MAX " 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 this
fluid 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 if you need to top
up in an emergency, wrap 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 to the required level.
If topping up, clean the cap before
replacing it. Use only DOT4 brake fluid
from a sealed canister.

Cooling of the engine when stopped
The engine cooling fan may star t after
the engine has been switched off.
Take care with objects or clothing that
could be caught in the blades of the
fan!Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when
necessary.
Fluid specification
The screenwash fluid must be topped up with
a ready for use mix.
In winter (temperatures below zero), a liquid
containing an anti-freeze agent must be
used which is appropriate for the prevailing
conditions, in order to preser ve the elements of
the system (pump, tank, ducts, etc.).
Filling with pure water is prohibited
under all circumstances (risk of freezing,
limestone deposits, jets, etc.).
Diesel fuel additive (Diesel
with particle filter)
or The minimum level in the particle
filter additive tank is indicated by fixed
illumination of this warning lamp,
accompanied by an audible warning
and a
message warning that the level
of additive is too low.
To p p i n g u p
This additive must be topped up without delay
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
