Citroen 7550 Model Vehicle User Manual


 
Driving
To achieve this start the engine, accelerating slightly to save time. Set the lever A
(fig. 23 and 24) to position 5 and wait until the car has settled at its maximum
height.
Check now that the level is steady between the "High" and "Low" marks of the
transparent indicator at A.
To top up only use the green fluid "LHM" distributed by the firm "TOTAL".
No other fluid may be used, especially those of a vegetable or synthetic
origin such as CH 12-04, LHS2 or brake fluids: these quickly and completely
ruin the car's hydraulic system.
IN AN EMERGENCY you can use:
either engine oil TYPE SAE 10 or SAE 20,
or oil for a hydraulic transmission FLUID A, TYPE A,
ensuring that the reservoir is drained at the earliest opportunity and the
prescribed fluid is substituted.
To drain the reservoir lower the car to its minimum height by moving the lever A
(fig. 23) to position 6, then open the bleed screw on the Pressure Regulator.
Unclip the tube B at C (fig. 9) from the lower clips and bend the tube
downwards.
Remove the blanking plug D (fig. 10) and allow the fluid to drain from the
reservoir.
Reset the lever to NORMAL (position 2) after refilling.
