ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER
All of the keys contain an electronic immobiliser device.
This device locks the engine supply system. It is activated automatically when the key is removed from the ignition.
After the ignition is switched on, a dialogue is established between the key and the electronic immobiliser system.
The metal part of the key must be unfolded correctly for correct dialogue to take place.
The remote control does not operate while the key is in the ignition, even if the ignition is off.
As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the key from the ignition when leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.
If you lose your keys
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's V5 registration document and your identifi cation document.
A CITROËN dealer will be able to retrieve the key code and the transponder code so that a replacement key can be ordered.
Good practice
Do not make any modifi cations to the electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even when it is in your pocket, may result in involuntary unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other high frequency equipment (mobile telephones, domestic alarms…), may interfere with the operation of the remote control temporarily.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle:
- have the keys memorised by a
CITROËN dealer to ensure that the keys in your possession are the only ones which can start the vehicle.
ALARM
If fi tted on your vehicle, this provides two types of protection:
- exterior protection: it sounds if a front/rear door or the bonnet is opened.
- interior protection: it sounds if the volume inside the passenger compartment changes (breaking of a window or a movement inside the vehicle).
If your vehicle is fi tted with a separation partition, the interior protection is not active in the load space.

FUEL GAUGE
The fuel level is tested each time the key is turned to the "running" position.
The gauge is positioned on:
- 1: the fuel tank is full, approximately 60 litres.
- 0: the reserve is now being used, the warning light comes on continuously. The reserve when the warning fi rst comes on is approximately 8 litres.
Refer to the "Fuel" section of chapter 6.
COOLANT TEMPERATURE
The needle is positioned before the red zone: normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot climatic conditions, the needle may move close to the red graduations.
Instruments and controls
What you should do if the needle enters the red zone:
Reduce your speed or let the engine run at idle.
What you should do if the warning light comes on:
- stop immediately, switch off the ignition. The fan may continue to operate for a certain time up to approximately 10 minutes,
- wait for the engine to cool down in order to check the coolant level and top it up if necessary.
As the cooling system is pressurised, follow this advice in order to avoid any risk of scalding:
- wait at least one hour after switching off the engine before carrying out any work,
- unscrew the cap by 1/4 turn to allow the pressure to drop,
- when the pressure has dropped, check the level on the expansion bottle,
- if necessary, remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red zone, have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Refer to the "Levels" section of chapter 6.
Instruments and controls
EMISSION CONTROL
EOBD (European On Board
Diagnosis) is a diagnostics system which complies with, among others, the standards concerning authorised emissions of:
- CO (carbon monoxide),
- HC (unburnt hydrocarbons),
- NOx (nitrogen oxides) or particles, detected by oxygen sensors placed upstream and downstream of the catalytic converters.
Therefore, the driver is warned of any malfunction of this emission control system by the lighting of this specifi c warning lamp on the instrument panel.
There is a risk of damage to the catalytic converter. Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Flat tyre
Check the tyre pressure as soon as possible.
Puncture
Stop immediately, avoiding any sudden movement of the steering wheel and the brakes.
Change the damaged (punctured or very defl ated) tyre, and have the tyre pressure checked as soon as possible.
Refer to the "Changing a wheel" section of chapter 7.
TYRE UNDER-INFLATION
DETECTION
Sensors check the tyre pressure during driving (speed higher than 12 mph
[20 km/h]) and trigger a warning in the event of a malfunction or puncture.
If the damaged tyre is temporarily stored inside the vehicle, it will again emit this message to remind you of the necessity of having it repaired. This will prevent another warning of the same type being displayed.
Sensor(s) not detected
Under-infl ation detection is absent from one (or several) tyre(s). Contact a
CITROËN dealer to replace the faulty sensor(s).
This message is also displayed when one of the tyres is away from the vehicle (being repaired) or when a wheel without a sensor is fi tted.
All repairs and changing of tyres on a wheel fi tted with this system must be carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
The tyre under-infl ation detection system is a driving aid which does not take the place of vigilance or the responsibility of the driver.
This system does not remove the need to have the tyre pressure checked regularly (including the spare wheel), to ensure that the dynamic performance of the vehicle remains at its best and to avoid premature wear of the tyres, in particular in the case of arduous driving (heavy load, high speed).
The system may temporarily be disturbed by radio broadcasts on a frequency close to it.
Any anomaly detected
(fl at or punctured tyre, malfunction of a sensor) is indicated by visual and audible information and is accompanied by a message on the display.
SERVICE INDICATOR
This programmes service intervals according to the use of the vehicle.
More than 1 000 miles/km before the next service is due
Example: 4 800 miles/km remain before the next service is due. When the ignition is switched on and for a few seconds, the display shows:
Instruments and controls
A few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the oil level is displayed, then the total distance recorder resumes normal operation and the spanner remains lit. This indicates that a service should be carried out shortly.
Operation
A few moments after the ignition has been switched on, the spanner indicating a service operation lights up; the display for the total distance recorder tells you (in round fi gures) the distance remaining before the next service.
The points at which a service is due are calculated from the last indicator zero reset.
The point at which a service is due is determined by two parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time which has elapsed since the last service.
A few seconds after the ignition is switched on, the oil level is displayed, then the total distance recorder resumes normal operation showing the total and trip distances.
Service overdue
Each time the ignition is switched on and for a few seconds, the spanner fl ashes and the excess distance is displayed.
With the engine running the spanner remains lit until the service has been carried out.
Less than 1 000 miles/km before the next service is due
Each time the ignition is switched on and for a few seconds, the spanner fl ashes and the number of miles/kilometres remaining is displayed:
First of the two terms reached: the spanner also lights up if the two-year interval has elapsed.
The distance remaining before the next service may be weighted by the time factor, depending on the driver's driving habits.
Instruments and controls
Zero re-set
Your CITROËN dealer carries out this operation after each service.
However, if you carry out the service yourself, the re-set procedure is as follows:
- switch off the ignition,
- press and hold the trip recorder reset button,
- switch on the ignition.
The display begins a countdown.
When the display shows "=0" , release the button; the spanner disappears.
After this operation, if you wish to disconnect the battery, lock the vehicle and wait for at least fi ve minutes, otherwise the zero re-set will not be registered.
Engine oil level indicator
When the ignition is switched on, the engine oil level is indicated for a few seconds, after the service information.
Oil level correct
Lack of oil
Flashing of "OIL" , linked with the service warning light, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display, indicates a lack of oil which could damage the engine.
If the lack of oil is confi rmed by a check using the dipstick, it is essential that the level is topped up.
Dipstick
A
= maximum, never exceed this level as a surplus of oil may damage the engine.
Contact a CITROËN dealer without delay.
B = minimum, top up the level via the oil fi ller cap, using the type of oil suited to your engine.
Trip recorder zero reset button
With the ignition on, press the button until the zeros appear.
Oil level gauge fault
Flashing of "OIL--" indicates a malfunction of the engine oil level gauge. Consult a
CITROËN dealer.

To prevent the mat from becoming caught under the pedal:
- ensure that the mat and its fi xings on the fl oor are positioned correctly,
- never fi t one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as the force exerted, even if slight, may wear the internal components of the gearbox over time.
To engage reverse gear, wait until the vehicle is stationary then push the gear lever to the right then down.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce the noise on engaging reverse gear.
5-speed - reverse gear gearbox
In order to drive as fuel effi ciently as possible with a manual gearbox, this indicator lamp indicates to the driver to change up.
The driver remains responsible for deciding whether or not to follow this indication, since the indicator lamp comes on without taking into account the confi guration of the road, the amount of traffi c and safety factors.
The lighting of this indicator lamp cannot be deactivated.
When reverse gear is engaged and when changing down whilst decelerating, the function is disabled.

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily on standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffi c (red lights, traffi c jams, or other...). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby:
If your vehicle is fi tted with the system, a time counter calculates the sum of the periods in STOP mode during a journey. It rests itself to zero every time the ignition is switched on with the key.
With the automatic gearbox system, for your comfort during parking maoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as braking, power steering, for example.
Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the key.
Stop & Start
Special cases: STOP mode unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:
- the driver's door is open,
- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,
- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start using the key,
- the parking brake is applied or being applied,
- the engine is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment,
- demisting is active,
- some special conditions (battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance, ambient temperature...) where the engine is needed to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO" warning lamp fl ashes for a few seconds, then goes off.
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you put the gear lever into neutral and release the clutch pedal,
- with the 6-speed electronic gearbox system , at a speed below
5 mph (8 km/h), when you press the brake pedal or put the gear lever into position N .

This aid to driving in free-fl owing traffi c enables the vehicle to maintain the speed programmed by the driver, unless a steep gradient makes this impossible.
In order for it to be programmed or activated, the vehicle speed must be greater than 25 mph (40 km/h) with at least 4th gear engaged.
Steering mounted controls
This cruise control shows the function selection status on the instrument panel and displays the programmed speed:
Function selected,
displaying of the
"Cruise Control" symbol.
Function deactivated,
OFF
(example at
107 km/h).
Function activated
(example at 107 km/h).
Vehicle speed above
(e.g. 118 km/h),
the programmed speed is displayed fl ashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF
- the dashes fl ash.

Steering mounted controls
Selecting the function
- Place the switch in the
CRUISE position. The cruise control is selected but is not yet active and no speed has been programmed.
Temporary exceeding of the speed
It is possible to accelerate
and drive momentarily at a speed greater than the programmed speed. The value programmed fl ashes.
When the accelerator pedal is released, the vehicle will return to the programmed speed.
Reactivation
- Following deactivation of the cruise control, press this button.
Your vehicle will return to the last programmed speed.
Alternatively, you can repeat the "fi rst activation" procedure.
First activation/ programming a speed
- Reach the chosen speed by pressing the accelerator.
- Press the or SET + button.
This programmes/activates the reference speed and the vehicle will maintain this speed.
Deactivation (off)
- Press this button or the brake or clutch pedal.
Changing the programmed speed
There are two methods of memorising a speed higher than the previous one:
Without using the accelerator:
- press the Set + button.
A brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Using the accelerator:
- exceed the memorised speed until the speed required is reached,
- press the Set + or Set button.
To memorise a speed lower than the previous one:
- press the Set button.
A brief press decreases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Switching the function off
- Place the dial in position
0 or switch off the ignition to switch everything off.
Cancelling the programmed reference speed
When the vehicle becomes stationary, after switching off the ignition, the system no longer memorises a speed.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then replaced by three dashes. Contact a
CITROËN dealer to have the system checked.
Steering mounted controls
Good practice
When changing the programmed reference speed by means of a maintained press, pay attention as the speed can increase or decrease rapidly.
Do not use the cruise control on slippery roads or in heavy traffi c.
In the event of a steep slope, the cruise control cannot prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.
In any event, the cruise control cannot replace the need to observe the speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the part of the driver.
It is advisable to leave your feet near the pedals.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fi xings on the fl oor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.

Steering mounted controls
SPEED LIMITER "LIMIT"
"This is the selected speed which the driver does not wish to exceed".
This selection is made with the engine running while stationary or with the vehicle moving. The minimum speed which can be programmed is 20 mph
(30 km/h).
The speed of the vehicle responds to the pressure of the driver's foot as far as the accelerator pedal point of resistance which indicates that the programmed speed has been reached.
However, pressing the pedal beyond this point of resistance to the fl oor permits exceeding of the programmed speed. To resume use of the limiter, simply reduce the pressure on the accelerator pedal gradually and return to a speed below that programmed.
The operating actions may be carried out when stationary, with the engine running, or with the vehicle moving.
This speed limiter shows the function selection status on the instrument panel and displays the programmed speed:
Function selected,
displaying of the
"Speed Limiter" symbol.
Function deactivated,
last programmed speed - OFF
(example at 65 mph
(107 km/h)).
Function activated
(example at 65 mph
(107 km/h)).
Vehicle speed above
(example 70 mph
(118 km/h)),
the programmed speed is displayed fl ashing.
Operating fault detected,
OFF
- the dashes fl ash.
Steering mounted controls
Selecting the function
- Place the dial in the
LIMIT position.
The limiter is selected but is not yet active. The display indicates the last programmed speed.
Programming a speed
A speed can be programmed without activating the limiter but with the engine running.
To memorise a speed higher than the previous one:
- press the Set + button.
A brief press increases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press increases the speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
To memorise a speed lower than the previous one:
- press the Set button.
A brief press decreases the speed by
1 mph (km/h).
A maintained press decreases the speed in steps of 5 mph (km/h).
Activation/Deactivation (off)
Pressing this button once activates the limiter, pressing the button again deactivates it (OFF).
3
Steering mounted controls
Exceeding the programmed speed
Pressing the accelerator pedal in order to exceed the programmed speed will have no effect unless you press the pedal fi rmly
beyond the point of resistance .
The limiter is deactivated temporarily and the programmed speed fl ashes.
To return to the limiter function, reduce your speed to below the programmed speed.
Flashing of the speed
The speed fl ashes:
- following forcing of the accelerator point of resistance,
- when the limiter cannot prevent an increase in the vehicle speed due to the profi le of the road or on a steep descent,
- in the event of sharp acceleration.
Switching the function off
- Place the dial in position
0 or switch off the ignition to switch the system off.
The last programmed speed remains in the memory.
Operating fault
The programmed speed is cleared then replaced by three dashes.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the system checked.
Good practice
In any event, the speed limiter cannot replace the need to observe speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance and responsibility on the part of the driver.
Always pay attention to the profi le of the road and sharp acceleration and stay in complete control of your vehicle.
To avoid any jamming under the pedals:
- ensure that the mat and its fi xings on the fl oor are positioned correctly,
- never place one mat on top of another.
Ventilation
VENTILATION
Manual adjustments:
Temperature
Control positioned:
in the blue zone, triggers cool air,
in the red zone, triggers heating of the interior ambient air.
Heating control panel
Air flow
The force of the blown air at the vents varies from 1 to the strongest 4. Position 0 switches it off.
Remember to adjust this control in order to reach the ambient air comfort level.
Air distribution
The air supply distribution is determined by the following symbols:
the side vents and the central vents,
Air conditioning control panel
the footwells,
the windscreen and the footwells,
the windscreen.
The air distribution can be modulated by placing the control in the intermediate positions, marked " ".

Ventilation
Intake of exterior air
The diode on the button is off. This is the preferred operating position.
Air conditioning A/C
The air conditioning can only operate with the engine running.
Recirculation of interior air
The diode on the button is lit. Recirculation temporarily prevents exterior odours and smoke from entering the passenger compartment.
Used with the setting of the force of blown air (from 1 to 4), recirculation enables you to obtain the required ambient air comfort level more quickly with both hot or cold settings.
This position should only be temporary.
When your ambient air comfort level has been reached, return to the intake of exterior air position to permit renewal of the air in the passenger compartment and avoid misting. This operating mode is preferable.
Pressing the button triggers the operation of the air conditioning, the diode is lit.
Pressing the button again switches the function off and the diode is switched off.
The air conditioning does not operate if the air fl ow is set to 0.
DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING WITH SEPARATE SETTINGS
FOR THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER
Good practice Automatic operation
For maximum cooling or heating of the passenger compartment, it is possible to exceed the value 15 by turning until
LO is displayed or the value 27 by turning until HI is displayed.
On entering the vehicle, the inside temperature may be much colder (or warmer) than is comfortable. There is no advantage in changing the value displayed in order to quickly reach the level of comfort required. The system will use its maximum performance to reach the comfort value set.
AUTO comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning system operating mode.
Press this button, the AUTO symbol is displayed.
In accordance with the comfort value selected, the system controls the distribution, the fl ow and the intake of air to guarantee comfort and a suffi cient circulation of air in the passenger compartment. No further action on your part is required.
Ventilation
When the engine is cold, to prevent an excessive diffusion of cold air, the air diffuser will reach its optimum level gradually.
For your comfort, the settings are stored when the ignition is switched off and are reinstated the next time the vehicle is started.
The automatic function will no longer be maintained if you change a setting manually (AUTO is cleared).
Driver or passenger side comfort value
The value indicated in the screen corresponds to a level of comfort and not a temperature in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Turn this control to the left or to the right to decrease or increase the value. A setting around the value 21 provides optimum comfort.However, depending on your requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is usual.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor located on the dashboard.

Ventilation
Manual operation
You can, according to your requirements, make a different selection from that offered by the system by changing a setting. The other functions will still be controlled automatically.
Pressing the AUTO button restores fully automatic operation.
Air distribution
Pressing this button several times in succession directs the air fl ow towards:
- the windscreen,
- the windscreen and footwells,
- the footwells,
- the side vents, central vents and footwells,
- the side vents and central vents.
Air fl ow
Press the small fan button to reduce the fl ow or the large fan
button to increase the fl ow.
On the display, the blades of the fan fi ll when the fl ow is increased.
Deactivating the system
Press the air fl ow small fan button until the fan symbol disappears from the display.
This action deactivates all of the system's functions, with the exception of the air recirculation and rear screen demisting (if fi tted on your vehicle). Your comfort setting is no longer maintained and is switched off.
Intake of exterior air/
Recirculation of interior air
Press this button to recirculate the interior air.
The recirculation symbol is displayed.
Recirculation prevents exterior odours and smoke from entering the passenger compartment. Avoid prolonged operation in interior air recirculation mode (risk of condensation, odour and humidity).
Pressing this button again activates the intake of exterior air.
Switching the air conditioning On/Off
Press this button, the A/C
symbol is displayed and the air conditioning is activated.
Pressing this button again switches off the air conditioning.
For your comfort, do not deactivate the system for long periods.
Pressing the large fan button or the AUTO button reactivates the system with the values set before it was deactivated.
The ventilation outlet, located in the glove box, diffuses cool air (if the air conditioning is on) regardless of the reference temperature requested in the passenger compartment and regardless of the exterior temperature.
Ventilation
DE-ICING AND DEMISTING
Manual mode
Direct the control to this air distribution setting.
Direct the control to this temperature setting.
Increase the air fl ow setting.
Press the air conditioning.
Returning to exterior air intake open permits renewal of the air in the passenger compartment (diode off).
De-icing the rear screen and/or mirrors
Pressing this button, with the engine running, activates the rapid demisting - de-icing of the rear screen and/or electric mirrors.
This function switches off:
- when the button is pressed,

Ventilation
GOOD PRACTICE
Vents
"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion of hot or cool air in the passenger compartment, there are adjustable central and side vents which can be directed sideways (right or left) or vertically (up or down). For your comfort while driving, do not close them and direct the fl ow of air towards the windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed towards the windscreen complete the equipment.
Do not block the vents located at the windscreen or the air extractor located in the boot.
DE-ICING AND DEMISTING
Automatic mode: visibility programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may not be suffi cient to quickly demist or de-ice the windows (humidity, several passengers, ice).
In this case, select the visibility programme. The visibility programme indicator light comes on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air fl ow and provides optimum distribution of the ventilation to the windscreen and side windows.
It deactivates the air recirculation.
Dust filter, odour filter
(activated carbon)
This fi lter traps certain dust and limits odours.
Ensure that this fi lter is in good condition and have all of the fi lter elements replaced regularly.
Refer to the "Checks" section of chapter 6.
Air conditioning
In all seasons, the air conditioning should only be used with the windows closed. However, if the interior temperature remains high after a prolonged period parked in the sun, do not hesitate to ventilate the passenger compartment for a few minutes.
Use the AUTO mode as much as possible as it permits optimised control of all of the functions: air fl ow, passenger compartment comfort temperature, air distribution, air intake mode or air recirculation in the passenger compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month, to keep it in perfect working order.
It is normal that the condensation created by the air conditioning system results in a fl ow of water which may form a puddle under the vehicle when parked.
If the system does not produce cold air, do not use it and contact a CITROËN dealer.

Parking sensors
REAR PARKING ASSISTANCE
The audible and/or visual rear parking assistance consists of four proximity sensors, installed in the rear bumper.
The sensors detect any obstacle which enters the fi eld: person, vehicle, tree, fence, behind the vehicle during the manoeuvre.
Certain objects detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre will no longer be detected at the end of the manoeuvre due to the blind spots between and below the sensors.
Examples: stake, roadworks cone or pavement post.
Engage reverse gear
An audible signal confi rms the activation of the system by engaging reverse gear.
The proximity information is indicated by an audible signal which becomes more rapid as the vehicle approaches the obstacle. When the distance between the rear of the vehicle and the obstacle is less than approximately thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous.
Display on the screen
Stop the assistance
Change to neutral.
Operating fault
In the event of an operating fault, when reverse gear is engaged the diode on the button comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display. Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Activation/Deactivation
You can activate or deactivate the system by pressing this button.
The activation or deactivation of the system is stored when the vehicle stops.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that the sensors are not covered with mud, ice or snow.
The system will be deactivated automatically if a trailer is being towed or if a bicycle carrier is fi tted (vehicle fi tted with a towbar or bicycle carrier recommended by CITROËN).
The parking assistance cannot, in any circumstances, take the place of the vigilance and responsibility of the driver.

Driving safely
(ABS - EBFD)
The ABS and EBFD (electronic brake force distribution) systems improve the stability and manoeuvrability of your vehicle on braking, in particular on poor or slippery surfaces.
The ABS prevents locking of the wheels, the EBFD provides control of the braking pressure wheel by wheel.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically when there is a risk of wheel lock. It does not reduce the braking distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice, oil, etc...) the ABS may increase the braking distance. When braking in an emergency, do not hesitate to press the brake pedal fi rmly, without releasing the pressure, even on a slippery surface, you will then be able to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle to avoid an obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be felt by slight vibration of the brake pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims), ensure that these are recommended by CITROËN.
ABS
ABS
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display, it indicates a malfunction of the ABS which could result in a loss of control of the vehicle on braking.
If this warning light comes on, together with the brake and STOP warning lights, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display, it indicates a malfunction of the electronic brake force distribution which could result in a loss of control of the vehicle on braking.
Stop immediately.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN dealer.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE SYSTEM (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables the optimum braking pressure to be reached more quickly, press the pedal fi rmly without releasing it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the brake pedal is activated.
This alters the resistance of the brake pedal under your foot.
To prolong the operation of the emergency braking assistance system: keep your foot on the brake pedal.
Driving safely
Operation of the ASR and ESP systems
The LED fl ashes when the
ASR or ESP is triggered.
TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)
These systems are linked and complement the ABS.
The ASR system is very useful for maintaining optimum drive and avoiding losses of control of the vehicle on acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent the wheels skidding, by acting on the brakes of the drive wheels and on the engine. It also allows the directional stability of the vehicle to be improved on acceleration.
Use the ESP to hold your course without attempting to countersteer.
If there is a variation between the trajectory followed by the vehicle and that required by the driver, the ESP system automatically acts on the engine and the brake of one or more wheels, in order to put the vehicle back on course.
Disarming the ASR/ESP systems
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting the vehicle when stuck in mud or snow, or on loose ground...), it could prove useful to disarm the ASR and
ESP systems to make the wheels spin and regain grip.
ESP OFF
- Press the button or turn the dial to the ESP OFF position (depending on model).
- The indicator light comes on: the ASR and ESP systems no longer act.
They engage again:
- automatically above 30 mph
(50 km/h),
- manually by pressing the button again or by turning the dial to this position
(depending on model).
Operating check
When a malfunction of the systems occurs, the indicator light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display.
Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the system checked.
The warning light may also come on if the tyres are under-infl ated. Check the pressure of each tyre.
Good practice
The ASR/ESP systems offer increased safety during normal driving, but should not incite the driver to take risks or to drive at high speed.
The operation of these systems is ensured if the recommendations of the manufacturer regarding the wheels (tyres and rims), the braking components, the electronic components and the fi tting and repair procedures within the CITROËN network are observed.
After an impact, have these systems checked by a CITROËN dealer.

Driving safely
"GRIP CONTROL"
When driving on snow, mud or sand, this traction system is linked with allseason M+S (Mud and Snow) tyres which offer an excellent compromise between safety, grip and traction.
This equipment allows you to manoeuvre in most conditions of poor grip.
Pressing the accelerator pedal should be suffi cient so that the power of the engine can ensure optimum management of the various parameters.
Correct use
Your vehicle is designed principally to drive on tarmacked roads but it allows you to drive on other less passable terrain occasionally.
However, it does not permit all-terrain activities such as:
- crossing and driving on terrain which could damage the underframe or strip away components (fuel pipe, fuel cooler, ...) due to obstacles or stones in particular,
- driving on terrain with steep gradients and poor grip,
- crossing a stream.
This ESP mode is calibrated for a low level of skidding, based on different conditions of grip encountered on the road.
When the ignition is switched off, the system returns automatically to ESP mode.
This snow mode allows the vehicle to adapts its strategy to the conditions of grip encountered for each of the two front wheels, on moving off.
When moving, the system optimises the skidding to guarantee the best acceleration possible in relation to the grip available.
Driving safely
This sand mode allows little skidding on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to move forward and limit the risks of getting stuck in the sand.
Do not use the other modes on sand as the vehicle may become stuck.
ESP OFF
This ESP OFF mode is only suitable for specifi c conditions encountered when moving off or at low speed.
This mode is active up to 30 mph
(50 km/h).
This all terrain
mode (mud, wet grass...) allows, when moving off, considerable skidding on the wheel with the least grip to favour clearing of the mud and regain "grip".
At the same time, the wheel with the most grip is controlled in such a way as to pass as much torque as possible.
When moving, the system optimises the skidding to respond to the driver's requirements as fully as possible.

Pull the strap, then insert the tongue into the buckle.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly by pulling the strap.
Driver's seat belt not fastened warning light
When the vehicle is started, this warning light comes on if the driver has not fastened his seat belt.
Seat belts
Good practice
The driver must ensure that passengers use the seat belts correctly and that they are all strapped in securely before moving off.
Wherever you are seated in the vehicle, always fasten your seat belt, even for short journeys.
The seat belts are fi tted with an inertia reel which automatically adjusts the length of the strap to your size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs, clips, safety pins, etc.) which permit a clearance with the seat belt straps.
Ensure that the seat belt is rolled up correctly after use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear bench seat, ensure that the seat belt is rolled up correctly and that the buckle is ready to accommodate the tongue.
Depending on the nature and seriousness of any impact, the pretensioning device may be triggered before and independently of infl ation of the airbags. It instantly tightens the seat belts against the body of the occupants.
Triggering of the pretensioners is accompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.
4
Seat belts
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the seat belt against the body of the occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active when the ignition is switched on.
The inertia reels are fi tted with a device which automatically locks the strap in the event of a collision or emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by pressing the red button on the buckle.
Guide the seat belt after unfastening.
The airbag warning light comes on if the pretensioners are triggered.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
In order to be effective, a seat belt must:
- restrain one person only,
- must not be twisted, check by pulling in front of you with an even movement,
- be tightened as close to the body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should be positioned in the hollow of the shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low as possible on the pelvis.
Do not invert the seat belt buckles as they will not fulfi l their role completely.
If the seats are fi tted with armrests, the lap part of the seat belt should always pass under the armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened correctly by pulling the strap fi rmly.
Recommendations for children:
- use a suitable child seat if the passenger is less than 12 years old or shorter than one metre fi fty,
- never allow a child to travel on your lap, even with the seat belt fastened.
For further information regarding child seats, refer to the "Children on board" section of chapter 4.
In accordance with current safety regulations, your CITROËN dealer guarantees all work or any checks, from testing to maintenance, on your seat belt equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly
(even after a minor impact) by a
CITROËN dealer: they must not show any signs of wear, cutting or fraying and they must not be transformed or modifi ed.
Clean the seat belt straps with soapy water or a textile cleaning product, sold by CITROËN dealers.

Air bags
AIRBAGS
The airbags have been designed to maximise the safety of the occupants in the event of a serious collision; they work in conjunction with the force limiting seat belts.
In the event of a serious collision, the electronic detectors record and analyse the front and side impacts suffered in the impact detection zones:
- in the event of a serious impact, the airbags infl ate instantly and protect the occupants of the vehicle.
Immediately after the impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly, so that they do not hinder the visibility of the occupants nor their possible exit from the vehicle.
- in the event of a minor or rear impact and in certain roll-over conditions, the airbags will not be deployed; the seat belt alone is suffi cient to provide maximum protection in these situations.
The seriousness of the collision depends on the nature of the obstacle and the speed of the vehicle at the moment of impact.
Airbags only operate when the ignition is switched on.
This equipment only operates once.
If a second impact occurs (during the same or a subsequent accident), the airbag will not operate.
The triggering of an airbag or airbags is accompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive individuals may experience some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result in a slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Air bags
Good practice
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the occupants and the airbags (a child, pet, object...). This could hamper the operation of the airbags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag system is strictly forbidden unless it is carried out by qualifi ed personnel of the CITROËN network.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms when an airbag is triggered cannot be ruled out. In fact, the bag infl ates almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) then defl ates within the same time discharging the hot gas via openings provided for this purpose.
Side airbags
Only put recommended covers on the seats. These will not hinder infl ation of the side airbags. Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Do not fi x or glue anything to the seat backs. This could cause injury to the chest or arms when the side airbag infl ates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.
Do not allow passengers to place their feet on the fascia, they risk serious injury if the airbag is triggered.
Smoke as little as possible as 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.
It is imperative that the passenger airbag is disarmed if a child seat is installed facing rearwards. Refer to the "Children on board" section of chapter 4.
4
Front airbags
The front airbags are incorporated in the centre of the steering wheel for the driver and in the fascia for the front passenger.
Air bags
Reactivation
In the "OFF" position, the passenger airbag will not be triggered in the event of an impact.
As soon as the child seat is removed, turn the airbag slot to the "ON" position to re-activate the airbag and thus ensure the safety of your passenger in the event of an impact.
Disarming
The passenger's front airbag alone can be disarmed:
- With the ignition switched off , insert the key into the passenger airbag disarming switch,
- turn it to the off position,
- then remove the key keeping the slot in this position.
Front airbag fault
If this warning light comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message on the display, consult a CITROËN dealer to have the system checked.
If the two airbag warning lights are lit continuously, do not install a rear-facing child seat. Consult a
CITROËN dealer.
Activation
They are deployed simultaneously, unless the passenger's front airbag has been disarmed, in the event of a serious front impact applied to all or part of the front impact zone A in the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane directed from the front towards the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between the front occupant of the vehicle and the fascia to cushion his forward movement.
The airbag warning light on the instrument panel is lit throughout the period of disarming.
To ensure the safety of your child, it is essential to disarm the passenger airbag 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 airbag were to infl ate.

- in the event of a minor or rear impact and in certain roll-over conditions, the airbags will not be deployed; the seat belt alone is suffi cient to provide maximum protection in these situations.
The seriousness of the collision depends on the nature of the obstacle and the speed of the vehicle at the moment of impact.
Airbags only operate when the ignition is switched on.
This equipment only operates once.
If a second impact occurs (during the same or a subsequent accident), the airbag will not operate.
The triggering of an airbag or airbags is accompanied by a slight discharge of harmless smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive individuals may experience some irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result in a slight loss of hearing for a short time.
Air bags
Good practice
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not leave anything between the occupants and the airbags (a child, pet, object...). This could hamper the operation of the airbags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the vehicle has been stolen or broken into, have the airbag systems checked.
All work on the airbag system is strictly forbidden unless it is carried out by qualifi ed personnel of the CITROËN network.
Even if all of the precautions mentioned are observed, a risk of injury or of minor burns to the head, chest or arms when an airbag is triggered cannot be ruled out. In fact, the bag infl ates almost instantly (within a few milliseconds) then defl ates within the same time discharging the hot gas via openings provided for this purpose.
Side airbags
Only put recommended covers on the seats. These will not hinder infl ation of the side airbags. Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Do not fi x or glue anything to the seat backs. This could cause injury to the chest or arms when the side airbag infl ates.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.
Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on the centre part of the wheel.
Do not allow passengers to place their feet on the fascia, they risk serious injury if the airbag is triggered.
Smoke as little as possible as 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.
It is imperative that the passenger airbag is disarmed if a child seat is installed facing rearwards. Refer to the "Children on board" section of chapter 4.

The side airbag infl ates between the front occupant of the vehicle and the corresponding door trim pad.
Curtain airbags
This is a system which protects the driver and passengers (with the exception of the centre seat of row 2) in the event of a serious side impact in order to limit the risk of head injuries.
Each curtain airbag is incorporated in the pillars and the upper part of the passenger compartment.
Activation
It is triggered at the same time as the corresponding side airbag in the event of a serious side impact applied to all or part of the side impact zone B , perpendicular to the longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on a horizontal plane and directed from the outside towards the inside of the vehicle.
The curtain airbag infl ates between the front or rear occupant of the vehicle and the windows.
Child safety
GENERAL POINTS RELATING
TO CHILD SEATS
Although one of CITROËN's main criteria when designing your vehicle, the safety of your children also depends on you.
For maximum safety, please follow these precautions:
- all children under the age of 12 or less than one metre fi fty tall must travel in approved child seats suited to their weight, on seats fi tted with a seat belt or ISOFIX mountings.
- statistically, the safest seats in your vehicle for the transportation of children are the rear seats,
- a child weighing less than 9 kg must travel in the "rearwardsfacing" position both in the front and in the rear,
- the passenger must not travel with a child on his lap.
CHILD SEAT IN THE FRONT
"Rearwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats up to the age of 2.
When a "rearwards-facing" child seat is installed on the front passenger seat, it is essential that the passenger airbag is disarmed. Otherwise, the child would risk being seriously injured or killed if the airbag were to infl ate.
"Forwards-facing"
Recommended on the rear seats over the age of 2.
When a "forwards-facing" child seat is installed on the front passenger seat, leave the passenger airbag armed.
The rules for carrying children are specifi c to each country. Consult the current legislation in your country.
Please consult the list of seats approved in your country. The Isofi x mountings, the rear seats, the passenger airbag and the deactivation of this airbag depend on the version sold.
Refer to chapter 4, "Airbags" section.
The child seats function and the passenger airbag disarming function are common to the entire
CITROËN range.
If the passenger airbag is not disarmed, the installation of a
"rearwards-facing" child seat in the front is strictly prohibited.

Child safety
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.
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 to the rear windows.
Manual mode
A label indicates the location of the child lock.
- Open fully past the point of resistance.
- Tilt the lever, located on the rear section of the door.
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.
CHILD LOCK
Electric mode
With the ignition on, press this button. The diode comes on.
Warning: this system is independent of the central locking control.
Always remove the ignition key when leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.
It is advisable to check the activation of the child lock each time the ignition is switched on.
In the event of a serious impact the electric child lock is deactivated automatically.
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.
This prevents opening of the side doors from the inside.
Towing a trailer
TOWING A TRAILER, CARAVAN, BOAT, ETC...
For more information about weights, refer to the administrative documents (V5 registration document, ...) or to the "Weights" section of chapter 8.
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel: gearbox in neutral.
Distribution of loads
Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest objects are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight is close to the maximum authorised without, however, exceeding it.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the coolant temperature.
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.
In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.
5
Towing a trailer
Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous use (towing the maximum load up a steep slope in high temperatures), the engine automatically limits its power. In this case, the automatic cutting off of the air conditioning allows the engine power to be recovered.
If the coolant temperature warning light comes on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change down early and brake gradually.
Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate speed.
ABS/ESP
The ABS or ESP systems only control the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.
See the "Levels" section of chapter 6.
Tyres:
Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle (see the "Identifi cation features" section of chapter 8) and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressure.
Rear parking assistance
The assistance does not function while the vehicle is towing.
Towbar
We recommend the use of original
CITROËN towbars and their harnesses, which have been tested and approved from the design stage of your vehicle, and that you entrust the fi tting of this equipment to a CITROËN dealer.
If this equipment 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 and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general instructions a reminder of which has been given above, we draw your attention to the risk linked with fi tting a towbar or electrical accessory not recommended by CITROËN. Fitting such equipment could result in the failure of your vehicle's electronic system. Please contact a CITROËN dealer for information before fi tting this type of equipment.

Equipment
The fi tting of electrical equipment or accessories which are not recommended by CITROËN may result in a failure of your vehicle's electronic system. Please note this specifi c warning. You are advised to contact a dealer to be shown the range of recommended equipment or accessories.
Depending on the country in which the vehicle is sold, it is compulsory to have a high visibility jacket, warning triangle and spare bulbs available in the vehicle.
"Active Fleet Data" telematic unit
Connected directly to the heart of the vehicle (multiplexed network:
"Full CAN"), the telematic unit, by means of a "ready to use" service, permits the sending in real time of information such as:
- distance travelled,
- distance remaining before the next service,
- warnings and faults (oil level, coolant level, oil temperature, coolant temperature, etc...).
This enables "Fleet" managers to optimise the monitoring and management of their professional vehicles.
Depending on country, contact a
CITROËN dealer for more information.

LEVELS
These regular maintenance operations will keep your vehicle in good working order. Ask for advice from a a CITROËN dealer or refer to the servicing booklet in the handbook pack.
If you have to remove/refi t the engine style cover, handle it with care to avoid damaging the fi xing clips.
Oil level
Check the level regularly and top up between changes.
Check the level with the vehicle level, engine cold, using the dipstick.
Oil change
This must be carried out at the intervals specifi ed and the viscosity grade of the oil selected must fulfi l the requirements in the manufacturer's servicing schedule. Ask for advice from a CITROËN dealer.
Remove the dipstick before fi lling.
Check the level after fi lling (never exceed the max mark).
Refi t the oil fi ller cap before closing the bonnet.
Dipstick
There are two marks on the dipstick:
A = maximum
If you fi ll past this mark, consult a CITROËN dealer.
B = minimum
Never allow the level to fall below this mark.
To maintain the reliability of engines and emission control systems, the use of additives in engine oil is prohibited.
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must meet the manufacturer's requirements.
Changing the brake fluid
The brake fl uid must be changed at the intervals stated, according to the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
Use fl uids recommended by the manufacturer, which fulfi l DOT4 standards.
The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks on the reservoir.
If fl uid has to be added frequently, this indicates a fault which must be checked by a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
Warning lamps
Checks using the warning lamps in the instrument panel is described in chapter 2, refer to the "Instruments and controls" section.
6
Levels
Cooling system
Only use the fl uid recommended by the manufacturer.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging your engine.
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 1/4 of a turn to release the pressure to prevent any risk of scalding. When the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up the level with coolant.
If fl uid has to be added frequently, this indicates a fault which must be checked by a CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground with the engine cold. Unscrew the cap integrated with the gauge and check the level which must be between the MIN and MAX marks.
Screenwash and headlamp wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your safety, we would advise that you use products of the CITROËN range.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid freezing, this fl uid must not be topped up or replaced with plain water.
Capacity of the screenwash reservoir: approximately 3 litres.
If your vehicle is fi tted with headlamp washers, the capacity of the reservoir is 6 litres.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks on the expansion bottle. If more than 1 litre of fl uid is required to top up the level, have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle emission filter)
The minimum level of this additive is indicated by lighting of the service warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the screen.
When this occurs with the engine running it is due to the start of saturation of the particle emission fi lter
(exceptionally prolonged urban type driving conditions: low speed, long traffi c jams, ...).
In order to regenerate the fi lter, you are advised to drive at a speed higher than
40 mph (60 km/h) for at least fi ve minutes as soon as possible, when traffi c conditions permit (until the message disappears and the service warning lamp goes off).
During regeneration of the particle emission fi lter, the noise of a relay operating may be heard under the dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and if the service warning lamp remains on, consult a
CITROËN dealer.
Topping up
It is imperative that this additive is topped up by a CITROËN dealer without delay.
Used oil
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil with the skin.
Brake fl uid is harmful to health and very corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fl uid or coolant into drains or into the ground but into the containers dedicated to this use at CITROËN dealer (France) or an authorised waste disposal site.
Checks
CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of driving, in particular for vehicles which are used in town, over short distances. It may be necessary to check the thickness of the pads, even between services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a drop in the brake fl uid level indicates that the brake pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear
For information on checking the brake disc/drum wear, consult a CITROËN dealer.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great or there is a reduction in the performance of the system, the parking brake should be adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Carbon filter and passenger compartment filter
An access fl ap below the glove box permits replacement of the fi lters.
The carbon fi lter permits continuous and effective fi ltering of dust.
If the passenger compartment fi lter becomes blocked, this may reduce the performance of the air conditioning system and generate unpleasant odours.
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter. By means of its second special active fi lter, it contributes to the purifi cation of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, unpleasant odours and greasy deposits).
Refer to the servicing booklet for the replacement interval for these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle (urban driving...), change them twice as often if necessary.
Oil filter
Change the fi lter regularly in accordance with the servicing schedule.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
Maintenance of the particle emission fi lter must be carried out by a
CITROËN dealer.
On acceleration after the vehicle has been running for a prolonged period at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the emission of water vapour at the exhaust. This water vapour does not have any adverse effect on vehicle handling or the environment.
6
Checks
Bleeding the water contained in the Diesel filter
If this warning lamp comes on, bleed the fi lter. Otherwise bleed regularly each time the engine oil is changed.
To drain the water, unscrew the bleed screw located on the fi lter.
Operate until all of the water no longer fl ows in the transparent pipe, then tighten the bleed screw.
HDi engines use advanced technology.
All work requires special training, which is assured by a CITROËN dealer.
According to country.
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
To check the main levels and certain components, in accordance with the manufacturer's servicing schedule, refer to the pages of the servicing booklet which correspond to your vehicle's engine.
Only use products recommended by CITROËN or products of equivalent quality and specifi cation.
In order to optimise the operation of units as important as the braking system, CITROËN selects and offers specifi c products.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical units, high pressure washing to clean the engine compartment is strictly prohibited.
FILLING WITH FUEL
Fuel
Filling
The fuel tank must be fi lled with the engine off .
- Open the fuel fi ller fl ap.
- Insert the key, then turn it a quarter turn.
- Remove the cap and hook it onto the clip located on the inside of the fl ap.
A label affi xed to the inside of the fl ap reminds you of the type of fuel to be used.
You must fi ll with at least 5 litres of fuel for it to be registered by the fuel gauge.
When the fuel fi ller cap is opened, there may be a slight air suction noise.
This vacuum is entirely normal and is due to the sealing of the fuel circuit.
When fi lling the fuel tank, do not continue after the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle. This could cause malfunctions.
The capacity of the fuel tank is approximately 60 litres.
- After fi lling the fuel tank, lock the cap and close the fl ap.
Quality of the fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly compatible with E10 type petrol biofuels (containing 10 % ethanol), conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol) are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must comply with
European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed to run on fuels containing up to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).
Low fuel level
When the minimum fuel tank level is reached, this warning light comes on.
You then have approximately 8 litres of fuel remaining. Fill up without delay to avoid running out of fuel.
Never risk driving until you run out of fuel as this may damage the antipollution and injection systems.
When fi lling with fuel, a mechanical system prevents opening of the left-hand side door.
When the fuel fi ller fl ap is open, ensure that no one tries to slide this door.
Once the fl ap has been closed, the sliding side door may jam, push the door to close it then open it.

FUEL CIRCUIT DISARMED
In a serious collision, a mechanism automatically prevents fuel from reaching the engine.
The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with biofuels which conform to current and future European standards (Diesel fuel which complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with standard
EN 14214) available at the pumps
(containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain

General points
For more information, refer to your registration certifi cate.
In each country, it is imperative that the towed loads authorised by local legislation are complied with. To fi nd out your vehicle's towing capacities and its gross train weight, consult a
CITROËN dealer.
The braked towed weight with load transfer can be increased on condition that the equivalent of this load is removed from the vehicle so that the
GTW is not exceeded. Warning: towing using a lightly loaded towing vehicle may have an adverse effect on its road holding.
The speed of a towing vehicle must not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) (comply with the legislation in force in your country).
The GTW and towed load values indicated are valid up to a maximum altitude of 1 000 metres; the towed load mentioned must be reduced by
10 % for each additional 1 000 metres.
High ambient temperatures may result in a reduction in the performance of the vehicle in order to protect the engine; when the ambient temperature is higher than 37 °C, limit the towed weight.
The kerb weight is equal to the weight without load + driver (75 kg) + fuel tank fi lled to 90 %.

The fi lters are independent and their results are cumulative.
We recommend a fi lter on the route and a fi lter around the vehicle of:
- 2 miles (3 km) or 3 miles (5 km) for a region with heavy traffi c,
- 6 miles (10 km) for a region with normal traffi c,
- 30 miles (50 km) for long journeys (motorway).

RDS, if displayed, allows you to continue listening to the same station by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies.

This explains the loss of reception of the station during a journey.

07 MUSIC MEDIA PLAYERS
CD, MP3/WMA CD
INFORMATION AND ADVICE
The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1, 2 & 2.5 Audio Layer 3 and the WMA format, an abbreviation of Windows Media Audio and the property of Microsoft, are audio compression standards which permit the recording of several tens of music fi les on a single disc.
The MyWay will only play audio fi les with the extension ".mp3" with a speed of between 8 Kbps and 320 Kbps and the extension
".wma" with a speed of between 5 Kbps and 384 Kbps.
It also supports the VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other type of fi le (.mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
9.20
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording it is preferable to select the ISO 9660 level 1, 2 or Joliet standard.
If the disc is recorded in another format it may not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible
(4x maximum) for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is recommended.
It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters, without using special characters (e.g.: " " ? ; ù) to avoid any play or display problems.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
QUESTION
There is a difference in sound quality between the different audio sources (radio, CD...).
ANSWER
For optimum sound quality, the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble,
Ambience, Loudness) can be adapted to the different sound sources, which may result in audible differences when changing source (radio,
CD...).
SOLUTION
Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to the sources listened to. It is advisable to set the AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear
Balance, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position, select the Linear musical ambience and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
The CD is ejected automatically or is not played by the player.
The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play.
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not recognised by the audio equipment.
- Check that the CD is inserted in the player the right way up.
- Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot be played if it is too damaged.
- Check the content in the case of a recorded
CD: consult the advice in the Audio section.
- The audio equipment's CD player does not play DVDs.
- Because of their quality level, certain writeable
CDs will not be played by the audio system.
The CD player sound is poor.
The CD used is scratched or of poor quality.
The audio equipment settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsuitable.
Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable conditions.
Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting an ambience.
QUESTION ANSWER
The stored stations do not function (no sound,
87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
An incorrect waveband is selected.
SOLUTION
Press the BAND AST button to return to the waveband (AM, FM1, FM2, FMAST) on which the stations are stored.
The quality of reception of the radio station listened to gradually deteriorates or the stored stations do not function
(no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the vehicle is travelling.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode.
Activate the RDS function to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the geographical area.
This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going through a car wash or into an underground car park).

2 seconds in radio mode.
During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency permitting better reception of the station.
Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is too frequent and always on the same route.
With the engine off, the audio equipment switches off after a few minutes of use.
When the engine is switched off, the audio equipment operating time depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery charge.

QUESTION
TA is selected. However, certain traffi c jams along the route are not indicated in real time.
ANSWER
On starting, it is several minutes before the system begins to receive the traffi c information.
In certain countries, only major routes (motorways...) are listed for the traffi c information.
SOLUTION
Wait until the traffi c information is being received correctly (displaying of the traffi c information symbols on the map).
This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the traffi c information available.
I receive a speed camera alert for a camera which is not on my route.
The system announces all speed cameras located in a conical zone forward of the vehicle. It may detect speed cameras on nearby or parallel roads.
Zoom the map to view the exact position of the speed camera.
The audible speed camera alert is not working.
Audible alerts are not active.
The alert volume level is set to minimum.
Activate audible alerts in Navigation Menu,
Settings, Set parameters for risk areas.
Increase the speed camera alert volume.
The altitude is not displayed.
On starting, the initialisation of the GPS may take up to 3 minutes to receive more than 3 satellites correctly.
Wait until the system has started up completely.
Check that there is a GPS coverage of at least
3 satellites (long press on the SETUP button, then select GPS coverage).
Depending on the geographical environment (tunnel...) or the weather, the conditions of reception of the GPS signal may vary.
This phenomenon is normal. The system is dependent on the conditions of reception of the
GPS signal.
The route is not calculated successfully.
The exclusion criteria may confl ict with the current location (exclusion of toll roads on a motorway with tolls).
Check the exclusion criteria.
9.33
QUESTION ANSWER
There is a long waiting time after inserting a CD.
When a new medium is inserted, the system reads a certain amount of data (directory, title, artist, etc.). This may take a few seconds.
SOLUTION
This phenomenon is normal.
I cannot connect my
Bluetooth telephone.
The telephone's Bluetooth function may be deactivated or the equipment may not be visible.
- Check that your telephone's Bluetooth function is activated.
- Check that your telephone is visible.
A telephone connected by Bluetooth is inaudible.
The volume level depends on both the system and the telephone. Increase the MyWay volume setting, possibly to maximum, and increase the telephone volume level if necessary.

INFORMATION AND ADVICE
The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1.2 & 2.5 Audio Layer 3, is an audio compression standard which permits the recording of several tens of music fi les on a single disc.
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW, when recording, the ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet fi le format is recommended.
If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be played correctly.
It is recommended that the same recording format is always used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible
(4x maximum) for optimum sound quality.
In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet format is recommended.
The audio system will only play fi les with the extension ".mp3" with a sampling rate of 22.05 KHz or 44.1 KHz. No other type of fi le
(.wma, .mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters without using special characters (e.g. " ? ; ù) to avoid any playing or displaying problems.
Empty CDs are not recognised and may damage the system.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
QUESTION
There is a difference in sound quality between the different audio sources (radio, CD...).
The CD is ejected automatically or is not played by the player.
ANSWER
For optimum sound quality, the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble,
Ambience, Loudness) can be adapted to the different sound sources, which may result in audible differences when changing source (radio,
CD...).
The CD is inserted upside down, is unplayable, does not contain any audio data or contains an audio format which the player cannot play.
The CD is protected by an anti-pirating protection system which is not recognised by the audio equipment.
SOLUTION
Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass,
Treble, Ambience, Loudness) are adapted to the sources listened to. It is advisable to set the AUDIO functions (Bass, Treble, Front-Rear
Balance, Left-Right Balance) to the middle position, select the musical ambience "None" and set the loudness correction to the "Active" position in CD mode or to the "Inactive" position in radio mode.
- Check that the CD is inserted in the player the right way up.
- Check the condition of the CD: the CD cannot be played if it is too damaged.
- Check the content in the case of a recorded
CD: consult the advice in the "Audio" section.
- The audio equipment's CD player does not play DVDs.
- Due to their quality level, certain writeable
CDs will not be played by the audio system.
The message "USB peripheral error" is displayed on the screen.
The Bluetooth connection is cut.
The CD player sound is poor.
The battery of the peripheral may not be suffi ciently charged.
The USB memory stick is not recognised.
The memory stick may be corrupt.
The CD used is scratched or of poor quality.
The audio equipment settings (bass, treble, ambiences) are unsuitable.
Recharge the battery of the peripheral device.
Reformat the memory stick.
Insert good quality CDs and store them in suitable conditions.
Set the treble or bass level to 0, without selecting an ambience.
9.54
QUESTION ANSWER
The stored stations do not function (no sound,
87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
An incorrect waveband is selected.
Press the BAND AST button to return to the waveband (AM, FM1, FM2, FMAST) on which the stations are stored.
SOLUTION
The traffi c announcement
(TA) is displayed. I do not receive any traffi c information.
The radio station is not part of the regional traffi c information network.
The quality of reception of the radio station listened to gradually deteriorates or the stored stations do not function
(no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the vehicle is travelling.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) block reception, including in RDS mode.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going through a car wash or into an underground car park).
Sound cut-outs of 1 to
2 seconds in radio mode.
During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency permitting better reception of the station.
Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffi c information.
Activate the RDS function to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the geographical area.
This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is too frequent and always on the same route.
With the engine off, the audio equipment switches off after a few minutes of use.
The message "the audio system is overheated" appears on the display.
When the engine is switched off, the audio equipment operating time depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery charge.
In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is too high, the audio equipment switches to an automatic thermal protection mode leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of the CD.
Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to allow the system to cool.
