Topping up the
cooling system
The coolant level
should be between
the
MIN marks on the
MAX
and
header tank.
Top up the level. If you have to
add more than 1 litre, you should
have the cooling system checked
by CITROËN.
Make sure that the cap is on
correctly
Note: The necessity to top up
frequently would indicate a mal-
function that should be checked at
the earliest opportunity.
Radiator - coolant
Adding engine oil
The coolant must only be checked
or topped up if the power unit is
cold.
Remove the dipstick before top-
ping up.
Check the level after filling.
It should never exceed the
maximum mark.
Screw on the cap before closing
the bonnet.
Quality: See “Maintenance Guide”.

Note: on vehicles equipped with a
particle filter, the cooling fan may
operate for some ten minutes after
the engine has stopped.
Engine hot
Release the protection cover.
Wait 15 minutes or until the tem-
perature is below 100 degrees C.
Usingaclothtoprotectyourhands,
slowly slacken the filler cap as
far as the safety catch. Allow the
pressure to reduce before remov-
ing filler cap.
When working under the bonnet, when the engine is hot
(even stopped and the ignition switched off),
the cooling fan could operate at any time.
