Limit the causes of excess 
consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; 
place the heaviest items in the bottom 
of the boot, as close as possible to 
the  rear   seats.
Limit the loads carried in the 
vehicle and reduce wind resistance 
(roof
  bars,   roof   rack,   bicycle  
carrier
,   trailer...).   Use   a   roof   box   in  
preference.
Remove
  roof   bars   and   roof   racks  
after
  use.
At the end of winter, remove snow 
tyres
  and   refit   your   summer   tyres.
Observe the recommendations 
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to the label in the 
door  aperture,   driver's   side.
Carry
  out   this   check   in   particular:
-
 
before
   a   long   journey,
-
 
at each change of season,
-
 
after
   a   long   period   out   of   use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the 
tyres
  on   any   trailer   or   caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly 
(engine
  oil,   oil   filter,   air   filter,   passenger  
compartment
  filter...)   and   observe   the  
schedule of operations recommended 
in
  the   manufacturer's   service   schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the 
SCR system is faulty your vehicle 
becomes polluting; go to a CITROËN 
dealer
  or   a   qualified   workshop   without  
delay to have the emissions of nitrogen 
oxides
  brought   back   to   the   legal   level.When refuelling, do not continue after 
the third cut-off of the nozzle to avoid 
any
  overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, 
it
  is   only   after   the   first   1   800   miles  
(3 000
  kilometres)   that   you   will   see  
the fuel consumption settle down to a 
consistent
  average.

Don't forget
When  leaving   the   vehicle,   check   that  
the lighting is of
f and nothing of value 
is
  visible.
As a safety precaution (with children 
on
  board),   remove   the   key   from   the  
ignition when leaving the vehicle, even 
for
  a   short   time.
Good practice
Do not make any modifications 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.
The remote control does not operate 
while
  the   key   is   in   the   ignition,   even   if  
the
  ignition   is   off.
ELECTRONIC  
IMMOBILISER
If you lose your keys
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the 
vehicle's  V5   registration   certificate   and  
your
  identification   document.
A CITROËN dealer will be able 
to
  retrieve   the   key   code   and  
the transponder code so that a 
replacement
  key   can   be   ordered.When purchasing a second-hand 
vehicle,
  have   the   keys   memorised   by  
a CITROËN dealer
, so as to be sure 
that   the   keys   in   your   possession   are  
the only ones that can be used to start 
the
  vehicle.
ALARM
If fitted 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
  
fitted
  
with
  
a
  
separation
  
partition, the interior protection is not 
active
  in   the   load   space.
Locking the vehicle with 
complete alarm
Setting the alarm
- Switch off the ignition and get out of 
the   vehicle.
-
 
Set
   the   alarm   within   five   minutes   of  
getting
  out   of   the   vehicle,   by   locking  
or
  deadlocking   using   the   remote  
control.
 
The
   red   LED,   located   in   the  
button,
  flashes   once   per   second.
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.

  characteristic   central   locking   noise
 is
  heard.  
The
   LED   in   the   switch   on   the
 dashboard
  central   switch   panel   comes   on.
