obstacles.
Using the sensors located on the front or
rear
bumper, the automatic zoom view is
displayed when approaching an obstacle at the
red line (less than 30 cm) during the manoeuvre.
This view is only available automatically.
Depending on version, it can be activated/
deactivated in the ADAS touch screen
application.
Obstacles may appear further away than
they actually are.
It is important to monitor the sides of the
vehicle during the manoeuvre, using the
mirrors.

elements (e.g. mud, frost, snow), stickers
application.
It is possible that warnings are not given,
are given too late or seem unjustified.
Consequently, always stay in control of your
vehicle and be prepared to react at any time
to avoid an accident.
In the event of repainting the rear
bumper, consult the CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop; certain types of paint
could interfere with the operation of the
radars.
Malfunction

Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in
accordance with the manufacturer's service
schedule. Top them up if required, unless
otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the
corresponding system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The fluids must comply with the
manufacturer's requirements and with
the vehicle's engine.
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the
cooling fan could start at any time (even with
the ignition off).
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the containers reserved
for this purpose at a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The level is checked, with the engine having been switched off for at least 30
minutes and on level ground, either using the oil
level indicator in the instrument panel when the
ignition is switched on (for vehicles equipped
with an electric gauge), or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two
services (or oil changes). It is recommended
that you check the level, and top up if necessary,
every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
In order to maintain the reliability of the
engine and emissions control system,
never use additives in the engine oil.
Checking using the dipstick
For the location of the dipstick, please refer
to the illustration of the corresponding engine
compartment.
►

Grasp the dipstick by its coloured grip and
pull it out completely

.
►

Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean,
lint-free cloth.


► Reinsert the dipstick and push fully down,
then pull it out again to visually check the oil

Practical information
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
components as important as those in the
braking system, CITROËN selects and offers
very specific products.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
Check regularly that the terminals are correctly
tightened (versions without quick-release
terminals) and that the connections are clean.
For more information on the precautions
to take before any work on the 12 V
battery, 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.
Passenger compartment
filter
Depending on the environment and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty atmosphere,
city driving), change it twice as often, if
necessary .
A clogged passenger compartment filter
can adversely affect air conditioning
system performance and generate
undesirable odours.
Air filter
Depending on the environment and the
use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty atmosphere,
city driving), change it twice as often, if
necessary .
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the engine
oil is changed.
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any
maintenance (no oil change).
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style of
driving, particularly in the case of vehicles
used in town, over short distances. It may be
necessary to have the condition of the brakes
checked, even between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the
brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads
are worn.
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in wintry conditions, ice can form on the
brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may
be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and
defrost them.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc
wear, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine servicing. However, in the event of a
problem, do not hesitate to have the system
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
For more information on the Electric
parking brake, refer to the
corresponding section.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres, including the spare wheel, must be
checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure
label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven
for more than 10 minutes or more than 6 miles
(10 kilometres) at over 31 mph (50
km/h), add
0.3 bar (30 kPa) to the values indicated on the
label.
Under-inflation increases energy
consumption. Non-compliant tyre

Updating the system
Remote device management and
remote software and firmware updates
As an integral part of the service related
to the performance of connected service
contract(s), necessary device management
and necessary software and firmware
updates related to the soft- and firmware
for the named connected service will be
performed remotely, in particular by using
"Over the Air"-technology.
For this, a secure radio network connection
between the vehicle and the device
management server of the Manufacturer will
be established after each "ignition on" when
a cellular network is available. Depending
on the equipment of the vehicle, connection
configuration must be set to "Connected

188
MYCITROËN DRIVE PLUS - MYCITROËN PLAY PLUS
vehicle" to allow the establishment of the
radio network connection.
Irrespective of a valid connected service
subscription, remote product security or
product safety related device management
and software and firmware updates will
be performed when the processing is
necessary for the compliance with a legal
obligation to which the Manufacturer is
subject (e.g. applicable product liability law,
e-call regulation) or when the processing
is necessary in order to protect the vital
interests of the respective vehicle users and
passengers.
The establishment of a secure radio network
connection and the related remote updates
are not affected by privacy settings and will
be performed in principal after an initiation
by the vehicle user following a respective
notification.
The system is able to notify receipt of an update
as soon as it is connected to an exterior
Wi-Fi
network or a cellular network.
Large updates are downloaded only via the Wi-Fi
network.
The availability of an update is notified on the
screen at the end of the journey with an option
of immediate installation or postponement of
installation.
The installation time is variable and can take
several minutes with a maximum of about 30 minutes. A notification will give an estimate of the
duration and a description of the update.
Update information is available through the
“Settings” application.
Press the "Settings" application.
In the list, select the "Updates” tab.
This button allows you to change the authorisation for automatic downloading
of updates via an external Wi-Fi network.
For safety reasons and because it
requires sustained attention by the driver,
the installation must be carried out with the
ignition on without starting the engine.
The installation cannot be carried out in the
following cases:
–

engine running.
–


emergency call in progress.
–


insufficient battery level.
–


when charging for electric vehicles.
If an update has failed or has expired, contact a
dealer or a qualified workshop.
The use of this service is not charged by the Contractor.
