"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   flow   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.
Dust filter, odour filter
(activated carbon)
This filter traps certain dust and limits odours.
Ensure   that   this   filter   is   in   good  
condition

  and   have   all   of   the   filter  
elements

  replaced   regularly.
Refer
  to   the   "Checks"   section   of  
chapter

  7.
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,   first   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   flow,  
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   good   working   order.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a CITROËN
dealer
  or   a   qualified   workshop.
Automatic mode: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may
not
 
be
 
sufficient
 
to
 
quickly
 
demist
 
or
 
defrost the windows (humidity

, several
passengers,
 
ice).
In this case, select the visibility
programme.
 
The

 
visibility
 
programme
 
indicator

 
comes
 
on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
flow
 
and
 
provides
 
optimum
 
distribution
 
of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side

 
windows.
It
 
deactivates
 
the
 
air
 
recirculation. It is normal that the condensation
created by the air conditioning system
results
  in   a   flow   of   water   which   may  
form a puddle under the vehicle when
parked.

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 air conditioning is
automatically cut of

f to save engine
power.
Tyres
Check
  the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  
vehicle and of the trailer

, observing the
recommended
  pressures.
Chapter
  7,   "Levels"   section.
If the coolant temperature
warning lamp 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.
Towbar
We recommend the use of genuine
CITROËN towbars and their wiring
harnesses, which have been tested
and approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
fitting
  of   this   equipment   to   a   CITROËN  
dealer

.
If
  this   equipment   is   not   fitted   by   a  
CITROËN dealer

, it is imperative that
it
  is   fitted   using   the   electrical   pre-
equipment 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   associated   with  
fitting

  a   towbar   or   electrical   accessory  
not

  recommended   by   CITROËN.  
Fitting such equipment could result in
the failure of your vehicle's electronic
system.

  Please   obtain   information   from  
the

  Manufacturer   before   fitting   this   type  
of

  equipment.
Side wind
Sensitivity

ABS or DSC systems only control
the
 
vehicle,
 
not
 
the
 
trailer
 
or
 
caravan.
Parking sensors

CHECKS
Carbon filter and passenger compartment filterParticle filter (Diesel)
Maintenance of the particle filter 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 ef

fect on vehicle
handling
  or   the   environment.
Battery
At the start of summer or winter, have
your  battery   checked   by   a   CITROËN  
dealer

  or   a   qualified   workshop.
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   fluid   level   indicates  
that

  the   brake   pads   are   worn.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the brake disc  /   drum   wear,   contact   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

  or   a   qualified   workshop.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly in accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing  schedule.
An
 
access
 
flap
 
allows
 
replacement
 
of
 
the

 
filters.
The
 
carbon
 
filter
 
permits
 
continuous
 
and

 
effective
 
filtering
 
of
 
dust.
If
 
the
 
passenger
 
compartment
 
filter
 
becomes

 
blocked,
 
this
 
may
 
reduce
 
the
 performance of the air conditioning
system and generate unpleasant
odours.
W
e recommend the use of a combined
passenger
 
compartment
 
filter.
 
By
 
means of its second special active
filter

,
 
it
 
contributes
 
to
 
the
 
purification
 
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 theservicing and warranty
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.
