IMPORTANT POINTS
Only the "Premium" (4-star, 97-99 octane) type of fuels can be used with the
DS engine.
If another make of sparking plug is to be used consult a CITROEN Agent
beforehand to ensure that a type of plug is fitted which suits the engine and its
operation.
This car is equipped with an alternator supplying an electrical system at 1 2 Volt
and a 200/40 Ah IEC battery.
• Never disconnect the battery or the alternator with the engine running.
• Never connect a battery charger to the battery terminals unless the two leads
linking the battery and the car circuit are disconnected.
Warning:
• Ensure that when reconnecting the battery the correct polarity is obtained: a
mistake would quickly ruin the electronic injection control.
• Never connect battery chargers or electric supplies with rated voltages in
excess of 1 2 V.
