It will be in your handbook :)

If you have the one page service schedule given when the car was new, it gives the oil spec on there. However, the specs do change so you ought to get the latest schedule from a Citroen service desk, they will not charge for this.

It's usually in your service schedule record booklet.

If you follow this topic you can read/download/print a copy of the hand book viewtopic.php?t=63208 It will not give the oil spec, just how to use the car.
