Coolant level
Screenwash and headlamp wash
fluid
Used products
Avoid prolonged contact of
used oil or fluids with the
skin.
Most of these fluids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
The coolant level should be
close to the "MAX" mark but
should never exceed it.
In the case of vehicles fitted
with headlamp washers, the
low fluid level is indicated
by an audible signal and a
message in the screen.
Top up the reservoir when you next
stop the vehicle.
When the engine is warm,
the temperature of the coolant is
regulated by the fan. This can oper-
ate with the ignition off.
On vehicles which are fitted with
a particle emission filter, the fan
may operate after the vehicle has
been switched off, even if the en-
gine is cold.
In addition, as the cooling system is
pressurised, wait at least one hour
after switching off the engine before
carrying out any work.
Do not discard used oil or
fluids into sewers or onto
the ground.
Fluid specification
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fluid must not be
topped up with or replaced with plain
water.
Take used oil to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop
(France) or to an authorised waste
disposal site.
To avoid any risk of scalding, un-
screw the cap by two turns to al-
low the pressure to drop. When the
pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level.
Diesel additive level (Diesel
engine with particle emission
filter)
A low additive level is indicated by
illumination of the service warning
lamp, accompanied by an audible
warning and a message in the multi-
function screen.
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be
changed.
