Good practice
Take care not to allow the remote
control to come into contact with
grease, dust, rain or a damp
environment.
A heavy object attached to the key
(keyring, ...) weighing on the shaft of
the key in the switch, may cause a
malfunction.
REMOTE CONTROL
Programming the remote
control
Following changing of the remote
control battery or disconnection of the
vehicle battery, the remote control may
have to be reprogrammed.
Wait at least one minute before using
the remote control.
Insert the key in the ignition switch with
the buttons (padlocks) of the remote
control facing you.
Switch on the ignition.
Press the locking padlock for at
least fi ve seconds within the next
ten seconds.
Switch off the ignition.
Wait at least one minute before using
the remote control.
The remote control is now working
again.
Use only identical batteries or
batteries of an equivalent type to those
recommended by CITROËN dealers.
Do not discard the remote control
batteries, they contain metals which
are harmful to the environment.
Deposit them at a CITROËN
dealership, or at any other approved
collection point.
Folding/unfolding the key
Changing the battery
Battery ref.: CR1620/3 volts.
The information "battery fl at" is given
by an audible signal, accompanied by
a message on the display.
To replace the battery, unclip the
casing using a coin at the ring.
If the remote control does not work
after the battery has been changed,
re-programme the remote control.

replacement battery does not conform. Press this button to release
the key from its housing.

Checks
CHECKS
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 clogged, 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). Particle emission filter (Diesel)
It is imperative that particle emission
fi lter maintenance is 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.
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 status
For any information relating to
checking the brake disc/drum wear
status, consult a CITROËN dealer.
Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Oil filter
Change the fi lter regularly in
accordance with the servicing
schedule.
Refer to the servicing booklet to fi nd
out 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.
