12 V battery
The battery does not require any
maintenance.
However,checkthattheterminals
arecleanandcorrectlytightened,
particularlyinsummerandwinter.
Refertothemanufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engineoilischanged.
Refertothemanufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
Oil filter
The presence of this label, in particular
with the Stop & Start system, indicates
the use of a specific 12 V lead-acid
batterywithspecialtechnologyand
specification.
The involvement of a CITROËN dealer
oraqualifiedworkshopisessentialwhen
replacingordisconnectingthebattery.
Unlessotherwiseindicated,checkthesecomponentsinaccordancewiththemanufacturer'sservicescheduleandaccordingtoyourengine.
Otherwise,havethemcheckedbyaCITROËNdealeroraqualifiedworkshop.
Dependingontheenvironment(e.g.dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g.citydriving),replace them twice as often
if necessary.
Acloggedpassengercompartmentfiltermay
have an adverse effect on the performance
oftheairconditioningsystemandgenerate
undesirableodours.
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle
filterisindicatedbythefixed
illuminationofthiswarninglamp
accompaniedbyawarningmessage.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit,
regeneratethefilterbydrivingata
speedofatleast40mph(60km/h)until
thewarninglampgoesoff.
Ifthewarninglampstayson,this
indicatesalowadditivelevel.
For more information on Checking
levels and the Diesel additive level in
particular,refertothecorresponding
section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filterregenerationoperationsmaybe
accompaniedbya"burning"smell,
whichisperfectlynormal.
Followingprolongedoperationofthe
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
youmay,inexceptionalcircumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
theexhaustonacceleration.Thisdoes
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
ortheenvironment.
Whencarryingoutworkonthebattery,refer
to the "12 V battery" section for details of the
precautionstobetakenbeforedisconnecting
thebatteryandfollowingitsreconnection.
