Checks
Checking levels
Check all of these levels regularly and top them up if necessary, unless otherwise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Brake fluid level
When working under the bonnet, take
care, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns).
The brake fluid level should be close
to the "MAX" mark. If it is not, check
the brake pad wear.
Oil level
The reading will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more than
30 minutes.
Engine oil change
Refer to the servicing booklet for the interval for
this operation.
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine
and emission control system, the use of
additives in the engine oil is prohibited.
Changing the ßuid
Refer to the Maintenance and Warranty Guide
for the interval for this operation.
The check is carried out either when the ignition
is switched on using the oil level indicator in the
instrument panel, or using the dipstick.
Oil speciÞcation
Fluid speciÞcation
It is normal to top up the oil level
between two services. CITROËN
recommends that you check the oil
level, and top up if necessary, every
3 000 miles (5 000 kilometres).
The oil must correspond to your engine
and conform to the manufacturer's
recommendations.
The brake fluid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations and meet
the DOT4 standard.
