Precautions for use
Never place objects on the roof, whether open or closed.
In the event of prolonged storage of the vehicle outside, it is recommended that the roof be
protected with a cover. To avoid damaging the roof, do not open it under snowy or frosty conditions.
Never use sharp tools to remove ice or accumulations of snow on the roof.
Never use scrapers or aerosol products to remove ice that may have formed on the rear
screen.
Avoid operating the heated rear screen when the roof is completely open (risk of
overheating).
To limit the creation of folds in the roof fabric, it is recommended that the roof not be left
open for long periods.
Operation of the vehicle's air conditioning system is not recommended while the roof is
open.
Never place objects on the transverse roof support when the roof is open.
It is recommended that the roof be closed when the vehicle is left parked.
Even if the roof is closed, it is prudent not to leave any valuable objects inside
the vehicle.
When you leave the vehicle, remove the ignition key to avoid any unwanted operation
of the roof.
If your vehicle has a voice command system, this may not work as well when driving with
the roof open.
Protection of the roof opening and closing electric motors: during repeated opening and
closing of the roof, the electric motors may become too hot and then no longer allow the
roof to be opened or closed. Allow the motors to cool down by not operating the roof for
ten minutes.
Reinitialisation
Do not release the control during the
reinitialisation procedure.
Operating
fault
In the event of an electrical fault,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
If the automatic roof operation mode is lost, the
system must be reinitialised.
With the engine running
, press and hold
the control for closing the roof.
After about 5 seconds, the roof closes completely to position 0 .
The roof is then reinitialised.
