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. 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
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. 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
Good practice
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.
DIGITAL AIR CONDITIONING WITH SEPARATE SETTINGS
Automatic operation
AUTO comfort programme
This is the normal air conditioning
system operating mode. 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.
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. 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).

ELECTRIC WINDOWS

1. Driver's electric window control

2. Passenger electric window control
There are two operating modes: Lower the window fully, then raise it,
it will rise in steps of a few centimetres
each time the control is pressed.
Repeat the operation until the window
is fully closed.
Continue to press the control for at
least one second after the window
closed position has been reached.
The safety auto-reverse does not
operate during these operations.
Safety auto-reverse
When the window rises and meets an
obstacle, it stops and partially lowers.
Automatic mode
Press or pull the control, beyond the
point of resistance. The window opens
or closes fully when the control is
released. Pressing the control again
stops the movement of the window.
The electrical functions of the electric
windows are deactivated:
- approximately 45 seconds after the
ignition is switched off,
- after one of the front doors is opened, if the ignition is off. Good practice
If the electric windows meet an
obstacle during operation, you must
reverse the movement of the window.
To do this, press the control concerned.
When the driver operates the
passenger electric window controls, he
must ensure that no one is preventing
correct closing of the windows.
The driver must ensure that the
passengers use the electric windows
correctly.
Be aware of children when operating
the windows.
Following several consecutive closing/
opening operations of the electric
window control, a protection system is
triggered which only authorises closing
of the window. After closing, wait
approximately 40 minutes. Once this
time has elapsed, the control becomes
operational again.
Manual mode
Press or pull the control, without
passing the point of resistance. The
window stops when you release
the control.
Reinitialisation
Following reconnection of the battery,
or in the event of a malfunction, the
safety auto-reverse function must be
reinitialised.

DRIVING SAFELY
HORN
Press the centre of the steering wheel.
PARKING BRAKE
Applying
Pull the parking brake lever up to
immobilise your vehicle.
Check that the parking brake is applied
fi rmly before leaving the vehicle. Releasing
Pull the lever and press the button to
lower the parking brake lever. HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
Press this button, the direction
indicators fl ash.
They can operate with the ignition off.
The hazard warning lamps should only
be used in dangerous situations, when
stopping in an emergency or when
driving in unusual conditions.
When parking on a slope, direct your
wheels towards the pavement and pull
the parking brake lever up.
There is no advantage in engaging
a gear after parking the vehicle,
particularly if the vehicle is loaded.
If the parking brake is still on or has
not been released properly, this is
indicated by this warning lamp which
comes on on the instrument panel.
Automatic lighting of hazard
warning lights
When braking in an emergency,
depending on the force of deceleration,
the hazard warning lights come
on automatically. They switch off
automatically the fi rst time you
accelerate.
It is also possible to switch them off by
pressing the button.

ESP OFF
111
Driving safely
SAFETY
4
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 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
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.
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. 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.

Seat belts
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.
Clean the seat belt straps with
soapy water or a textile cleaning
product, sold by CITROËN
dealers.
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.
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. Front seat belts
The front seats are fi tted with
pretensioners and force limiters.
Rear seat belts
(5 seat version)
The rear seats are fi tted with three-
point inertia reel seat belts.

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.

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.
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.

Air bags
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.
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. 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 "OFF" position,
- then remove the key keeping the slot in this position.
The airbag warning light on the
instrument panel is lit throughout
the period of disarming. If the two airbag warning lights
are lit continuously, do not install
a rear-facing child seat. Consult a
CITROËN dealer.
Front airbag fault
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. 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.
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.
