theignitionisswitchedonusingthe

oil level indicator in the instrument

panel for vehicles so equipped, or

usingthedipstick.

recommendsthatyoucheckthelevel,andtop-

upifnecessary,every3000miles(5000kms).

Checkalloftheselevelsregularly,inlinewiththemanufacturer'sserviceschedule.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.

Toensurethatthereadingiscorrect,

yourvehiclemustbeparkedonalevel

surfacewiththeenginehavingbeenoff

formorethan30minutes.

A = MAX

B = MIN

If you find that the level is above the Amarkor

below the Bmark,do not start the engine.

- If the level is above the MAXmark(risk

ofdamagetotheengine),contacta

CITROËNdealeroraqualifiedworkshop.

- If the level is below the MINmark,you

musttop-uptheengineoil.
