Levels
When this occurs with the engine running it
is due to the start of saturation of the particle
emission filter (exceptionally prolonged
urban type driving conditions: low speed,
long traffic jams, ...).
Cooling system
Power steering fluid level
Only use the fluid recommended by the
manufacturer.
The vehicle must be parked on level ground
with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap
integrated with the gauge and check the
level which must be between the MIN and
MAX marks.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging your
engine.
In order to regenerate the filter, you are
advised to drive at a speed higher than
40 mph (60 km/h) for at least five minutes
as soon as possible, when traffic conditions
permit (until the message disappears and
the service warning lamp goes off).
When the engine is warm, the temperature
of the coolant is controlled by the engine
fan. As this fan can operate with the ignition
key removed and because the cooling
system is pressurised, wait for at least one
hour after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Screenwash and headlamp wash
level
For best quality cleaning and for your safety,
we would advise that you use products of
the CITROËN range.
During regeneration of the particle emission
filter, relay noise may be heard under the
dashboard.
Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to release
the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding.
When the pressure has dropped, remove the
cap and top up the level with coolant.
Capacity of the screenwash reservoir:
approximately 4.5 litres.
If the message is still displayed and if the
service warning lamp remains on, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
If your vehicle is fitted with headlamp
washers, the capacity of the reservoir
is 7.5 litres.
If fluid has to be added frequently, this
indicates a fault which must be checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
To ensure optimum cleaning and prevent
freezing, this fluid must not be topped up or
replaced with plain water.
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Topping up
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
emission filter)
The level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the expansion bottle. If
more than 1 litre of fluid is required to top
up the level, have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the service warning
light, accompanied by an audible signal and
a message in the screen.
