RADIO
Notes on radio reception
Your car radio is subject to phenomena which do not affect domestic radio sets. Both AM (MW/LW) and FM reception are subject to various forms of interference. This is no refl ection on the quality of the equipment, but is due to the nature of the signals and the way in which they are transmitted.
On MW/LW, interference may be noticed when passing under high voltage power lines or bridges, or in tunnels.
On FM, interference may be the result of increasing distance from the transmitter, defl ection of the signals by obstacles (mountains, hills, buildings, etc.), or of being in an area which is not covered by a transmitter.

Advice on operation
Select the air distribution most suited to your requirements and the climatic conditions.
Gradually adjust the temperature setting for your comfort.
Position the air control in the ''Outside
Air'' position.
For perfectly even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grille and the vents. Check that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition.
When the engine is cold, to prevent too great a distribution of cold air, the ventilation will increase to its optimum level gradually.
In order to be effective, the air conditioning ( A/C button), should only be used with the windows closed.
If the interior temperature remains very high following a prolonged period parked in the sun, do not hesitate to ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes.
The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.
Operate the air conditioning system for 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep it in perfect working order.
The water created by the air conditioning condensation is discharged via an opening provided for this purpose. Therefore, a puddle of water may form underneath the vehicle when stationary.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a
CITROËN dealer.
De-icing the rear windows and mirrors
With the engine running, pressing the control de-ices the rear windows and mirrors.
It switches off automatically after approximately twelve minutes.
Pressing the control again switches the de-icing system on again for twelve minutes.
It is possible to switch off the deicing by pressing the control before the twelve minutes have elapsed.

It is imperative that the vehicle's front seat is adjusted to the intermediate longitudinal position.
In this case, it is compulsory to secure the child seat to the vehicle's seat
using the three-point seat belt.
Follow the instructions for fi tting the child seat indicated in the seat manufacturer's installation guide.
ADVICE ON CHILD
SEATS
The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle compromises the child's protection in the event of an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or the child seat harnesses keeping the slack in relation to the child's body to a minimum, even for short journeys.
For optimum installation of the "forward facing" child seat, ensure that the back of the child seat is in contact with the back of the vehicle's seat and that the head restraint does not cause any discomfort.
If the head restraint has to be removed, ensure that it is stored or attached securely to prevent it from being thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking.
Children under the age of 10 must not travel in the "forward facing" position on the front passenger seat, unless the rear seats are already occupied by other children, cannot be used or are absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag when a "rear facing" child seat is installed on the front seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were to infl ate.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must be positioned on the child's shoulder without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt passes correctly over the child's thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a booster seat which has a back, fi tted with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
SEATS 49
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- one or more children alone and unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a child or an animal in a vehicle which is exposed to the sun, with the windows closed,
- the keys within reach of children inside the vehicle.
To prevent accidental opening of the doors, use the "Child lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows by more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays of the sun, fi t side blinds on the rear windows.
50 SEATS
Locking the seat belts
Pull the strap, then insert the end into the buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly by pulling the strap.
Rear seat belts
(5 seat version)
The rear seats are fi tted with three three-point inertia reel seat belts
(two-part rear seat, 1/3 - 2/3).
SEAT BELTS
Seat belt height adjustment
To lower or raise: slide the control downwards or upwards.
Unfastening the seat belts
Press the button on the buckle.
Front seat belts with pretensioner
Safety in the event of frontal impacts has been improved by the introduction of pre-tensioning seat belts for the front seats.
Depending on the seriousness of the impact, the pre-tensioning system instantly tightens the seat belts and pulls them against the bodies of the occupants.
The pre-tensioning seat belts are armed when the ignition is on.
The driver must ensure that the passengers use the seat belts correctly and that they are all properly restrained before setting off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, always fasten your seat belt, even for short journeys.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfi l their role fully.
If the seats have armrests * , the lap part of the seat belt must always pass under the armrest.
The seat belts are fi tted with an inertia reel permitting automatic adjustment of the length of the strap to your size. The seat belt is stored automatically when not in use.
Before and after use, ensure that the seat belt is reeled in correctly.
The lower part of the strap must be positioned as low as possible on the pelvis.
The upper part must be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The inertia reels are fi tted with an automatic locking device which comes into operation in the event of a collision, on emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls over. You can release the device by pulling rapidly on the strap and releasing it.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
- must be tightened as close to the body as possible,
- must restrain one adult only,
- must not bear any trace of cuts or fraying,
- must be pulled in front of you with a smooth movement, checking that it does not twist,
- must not be transformed or modifi ed to avoid altering its performance.
In accordance with current safety regulations, all repairs and checks must be carried out by a CITROËN dealer who guarantees that the work is carried out correctly.
Have your seat belts checked regularly by a CITROËN dealer and particularly if the straps show signs of damage.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or a textile cleaning product, sold by CITROËN dealers.
SEATS 51
Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shorter than one metre fi fty,
- do not use the strap-guide * when a child seat is installed.
- never use the same seat belt to secure more than one person,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap.
Depending on the nature and seriousness of the impacts , the pretensioning device may be triggered before and independently of the air bags. Triggering of the pre-tensioners is accompanied by a slight emission of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes on.
Following an impact, have the seat belts system checked, and if necessary replaced, by a CITROËN dealer.
After folding or moving a seat or rear bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is positioned and rolled up correctly.
* According to model.

DRIVING 75
The airbags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupants in the event of serious collisions. They work in conjunction with the force-limiting seat belts. The electronic detectors register and analyse any abrupt deceleration of the vehicle in the impact detection zones (see diagram): if the triggering threshold is reached, the airbags infl ate instantly and protect the occupants of the vehicle.
Impact detection zones
A.
Front impact zone.
B.
Side impact zone.
Immediately after the impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly so that they do not hinder the visibility of the occupants nor their exit if necessary from the vehicle.
The airbags are not deployed in the case of minor impacts, rear impacts or in certain roll-over conditions. The seat belt is suffi cient to ensure maximum protection in these situations.
The seriousness of a collision depends on the nature of the obstacle and the speed of the vehicle at the moment of the collision.
Airbags only operate when the ignition is switched on.
Note : the gas escaping from the airbags can be a minor irritant.
FRONT AIRBAGS
These are folded in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in the fascia for the front passenger.
They are deployed simultaneously, except in cases where the passenger air bag is disarmed, in the event of a serious front impact applied in the impact zone in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane and from the front of the vehicle towards the rear. The air bag infl ates between the front occupant of the vehicle and the fascia to cushion his forward movement. The airbags therefore limit the risk of injury to the head and chest.
76 DRIVING
Front air bag malfunction
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal, contact a CITROËN dealer to have the system checked. The airbags may no longer be triggered in the event of a serious impact.
The air bag warning light on the instrument panel is lit throughout the period of disarming.
In the "OFF" position, the passenger air bag will not be triggered in the event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the air bag slot to the "ON" position to re-activate the air bag and thus ensure the safety of your passenger in the event of an impact.
Disarming the passenger air bag
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to disarm the passenger air bag when you install a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat. Otherwise, the child would risk being killed or seriously injured if the air bag were to infl ate.
With the ignition switched off
, insert the key into the passenger air bag disarming switch 1 , turn it to the "OFF" position, then remove the key keeping the slot in this position.
Disarming check
This is confi rmed by an indicator light, accompanied by a message on the display.
With the ignition on
(2nd notch), illumination of this warning light indicates that the passenger air bag is disarmed (switch in the
"OFF" position).
If the two air bag warning lights are lit continuously, do not install a rear-facing child seat. Consult a CITROËN dealer.
SIDE AIRBAGS *
The side airbags are incorporated into the front seat backs on the door side.
The triggering of these airbags requires a serious side impact applied in the side impact zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle, on a horizontal plane and from the outside of the vehicle towards the inside. The side air bag infl ates between the front occupant of the vehicle and the door trim pad.
It therefore limits the risk of injury to the chest.
Airbags malfunction
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal, contact a CITROËN dealer to have the system checked. The airbags may no longer be triggered in the event of a serious impact.
For the front and side airbags to be fully effective, observe the following safety rules:
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Sit in a normal upright position.
Do not leave anything between the occupants and the airbags
(child, animal, object, ...).
This could hamper the operation of the airbags or injure the occupants.
All work on the air bag systems is strictly prohibited unless it is carried out by qualifi ed personnel of the CITROËN network.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the air bag systems checked.
DRIVING 77
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the fascia.
Smoke as little as possible; deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.
Side airbags *
Only put approved covers on the front seats. Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Do not fi x or glue anything to the front seat backs. This could cause injury to the chest or arms when the side air bag infl ates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.

CHECKING THE LEVELS
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up between changes. The maximum consumption is 0.5 l per
600 miles (1 000 km).
Check the level with the vehicle level, engine cold, using the oil level gauge on the instrument panel or the dipstick.
Dipstick
There are two marks on the dipstick:
A
= maximum
Never fi ll past this mark.
B
= minimum
To maintain the reliability of engines and emission control systems, the use of additives in engine oil is prohibited.
Oil change
According to the information given in the servicing booklet.
Note:
avoid used oil coming into prolonged contact with the skin.
Empty the used oil into the containers intended for this purpose in the
CITROËN network.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer's requirements.
Brake fluid level:
The brake fl uid must be changed according to the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fl uids recommended by the manufacturer, which fulfi l DOT4 standards.
Note:
brake fl uid is harmful to health and very corrosive. Avoid all contact with the skin.
Cooling system
Use the fl uid recommended by the manufacturer.
When the engine is warm, the temperature of the coolant is controlled by the engine fan. As this fan can operate with the ignition key removed and because the cooling system is pressurised, wait for at least one hour after the engine has stopped before carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by two turns to release the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding. When the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up the level.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION 83
Note: the coolant does not need to be changed.
For vehicles equipped with a particle fi lter, the engine fan may operate after the ignition has been switched off, even when the engine is cold.
Used oil
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fl uid or coolant into drains or onto the ground.
Power steering reservoir
Open the reservoir, with the engine at ambient temperature. The level should always be above the
MIN. mark and close to the MAX. mark.
Windscreen and headlamp wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your safety, we would advise that you use products recommended by
CITROËN.
For optimum cleaning and to prevent freezing, this fl uid must not be topped up or replaced with water.
84
PRACTICAL INFORMATION
CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery checked by a CITROËN dealer.

BATTERY
To charge the battery using a battery charger:
- Disconnect the battery,
- Follow the instructions for use given by the battery charger manufacturer,
- Reconnect starting with the negative (-) terminal,
- Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are covered with sulphate (white or greenish deposit), disconnect them and clean them.
To start the vehicle from another battery:
- Connect the red cable to the positive
(+) terminals of the two batteries,
- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-) terminal of the slave battery,
- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an earth point on the broken down vehicle as far as possible from the battery (for example, right-hand engine mounting).
Operate the starter, let the engine run.
Wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
It is advisable to disconnect the battery if the vehicle is not to be used for a period of more than one month.
Before disconnecting the battery, you must wait 2 minutes after switching off the ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the engine is running.
Never charge a battery without fi rst disconnecting the terminals.
Close the windows and the roof before disconnecting the battery.
After every reconnection of the battery, switch on the ignition and wait
1 minute before starting to allow the electronic systems to be initialised.
If slight diffi culties are experienced after this, please contact a CITROËN dealer.
ECONOMY MODE FUNCTION
After the engine has stopped, with the key in the "accessories" position, certain functions (windscreen wiper, electric windows, courtesy lights, audio equipment, etc.) can only be used for a combined duration of approximately thirty minutes, to prevent discharging the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, a switching to economy mode message appears on the multi-function display and the active functions are put on standby.
These functions are reactivated automatically next time the vehicle is driven.
In order to resume the use of these functions immediately, the engine must be started and left to run for a few minutes.
The time available to you will then be double the duration for which the engine is left running. However, this period will always be between fi ve and thirty minutes.
A fl at battery prevents the engine from starting.

TOWING YOUR VEHICLE
Without lifting (four wheels on the ground)
You must always use a towbar.
From the front or the rear
Attach the towbar to the towing eye.
By lifting (two wheels only on the ground)
It is preferable to lift the vehicle by the wheels.
PRACTICAL INFORMATION 99
Never use the radiator crossmember.
When towing another vehicle, it must freewheel.
Place the gearbox in "neutral".
Failure to observe this instruction may result in damage to certain braking components and the absence of braking assistance when the engine is started again.
100 PRACTICAL INFORMATION
We recommend the use of original
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses that have been tested and approved from the design stage of your vehicle and that the fi tting of the towbar is entrusted to a CITROËN dealer.
If the towbar is not fi tted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is imperative that it is fi tted using the electrical preequipment installed at the rear of the vehicle, in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Your vehicle is primarily designed for transporting people and luggage but it may also be used for towing a trailer.
Driving with a trailer subjects the towing vehicle to more signifi cant stress and its driver must be particularly careful.
Air density decreases with altitude, thus reducing engine performance.
Above 1 000 metres, the maximum towing load must be reduced by 10 % and so on for every 1 000 metres of altitude.
Driving advice
Distribution of loads: Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Cooling: Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature of the coolant.
As the fan is electrically controlled, its cooling capacity is not dependent on the engine speed.
On the contrary, use a high gear to lower the engine speed and reduce your speed.
The maximum towing load on a long slope depends on the gradient and the outside temperature.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.
In certain cases of particularly arduous use (towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures), switching off the air conditioning permits the recovery of engine power and therefore an increase in the towing capacity.
If the warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Tyres:
Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.
Braking: Towing increases the braking distance.
Lights: Check the electrical signalling on the trailer.
Side wind:
Take into account the increased sensitivity to side wind.
ACCESSORIES
These accessories and parts, having been tested and approved for reliability and safety, are all adapted to your vehicle. A wide range of recommended accessories and original parts is offered.
Range of professional equipment
