HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
H
ORN
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  
firmly

  before   leaving   the   vehicle.Pull
  on   the   parking   brake   lever,   only
with the vehicle stationary.
In the exceptional case of use of the
parking
  brake   when   the   vehicle   is  
moving,

  apply   the   brake   by   pulling  
gently

  to   avoid   locking   the   rear   wheels  
(risk

  of   skidding).
Press this button, the direction
indicators
 
flash.
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.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS / EBFD)
The ABS   and   EBFD   (electronic   brake  force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle
  on   braking,   in   particular   on  
poor

  or   slippery   surfaces.
The
 
ABS
  prevents   locking   of   the  
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the

  braking   pressure   wheel   by   wheel.If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle
  on   braking.
If this warning lamp comes
on,
  together   with   the   brake  
and ST

OP warning lamps,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the
  electronic   brake   force   distribution  
which could result in a loss of control of
the

  vehicle   on   braking.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSIST

ANCE (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the  optimum   braking   pressure   to   be  
reached

  more   quickly,   press   the   pedal  
firmly

  without   releasing   it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake
  pedal   is   pressed   down.
This
  alters   the   resistance   of   the   brake  
pedal

  under   your   foot.
To maintain operation of the
emergency
  braking   assistance   system:  
keep

  your   foot   on   the   brake   pedal.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically when
there  is   a   risk   of   wheel   lock.   It   does   not  
reduce

  the   braking   distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice,
oil, etc...)
  the  
ABS
  may   increase   the  
braking

  distance.   When   braking   in  
an emergency

, do not hesitate to
press
  the   brake   pedal   firmly,   without  
releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to

  avoid   an   obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt
  by   slight   vibration   of   the   brake  
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that these are listed by
CITROËN

  for   the   vehicle. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN
dealer
  or   a   qualified   workshop.

SEAT BELTS
Height adjustment
Squeeze the control with the return and
slide the assembly on the driver's seat
side and on the individual passenger
seat  side.
Fastening
Pull the strap, then insert the tongue
into  the   buckle.
Check
  that   the   seat   belt   is   fastened  
correctly

  by   pulling   the   strap.
Seat belt(s) not fastened
warning lamp Unfastening
Press the red button.
When the vehicle is started,
this warning lamp comes on
if a user at the front has not
fastened
  their   seat   belt.
Good practice
The driver must ensure that
passengers use the seat belts correctly
and that they are all strapped in
securely  before   moving   off.
Wherever you are seated in the
vehicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even
  for   short   journeys.
The
  seat   belts   are   fitted   with   an   inertia  
reel

  which   automatically   adjusts   the  
length

  of   the   strap   to   your   size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs,
clips,
  safety   pins,   etc.)   which   allow   the  
seat

  belt   straps   to   fit   loosely.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly
  after   use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
has reeled in correctly and that the
buckle
  is   ready   to   accommodate   the  
tongue.
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of any impact, the
pretensioning device may be deployed
before

  and   independently   of   inflation  
of

  the   airbags.   It   instantly   tightens  
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Deployment of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of

  harmless   smoke   and   a   noise,   due  
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge

  incorporated   in   the   system.
The front passenger's seat may be
fitted
 
with

 
a

 
presence

 
detector

,
 
in

 
which

 
case you should not place anything
heavy on this seat as this could trigger
the

 
alert.

Advice
Sit  in   a   normal   upright   position.
Wear
  a   correctly   adjusted   seat   belt.
Do not allow anything to come between
the occupants and the airbags
(a
  child,   pet,   object...),   do   not   attach   or  
fix

  anything   near   to   the   airbags   or   their  
trajectories

  when   inflating   as   this   could  
cause

  injuries   when   the   airbags   are  
deployed.
Never

  modify   the   original   definition   of  
your vehicle, particularly in the area
directly

  around   the   airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been
  stolen   or   broken   into,   have   the  
airbag

  systems   checked.
All
  work   on   the   airbag   system   must   be  
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified

  workshop.
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
deployed

  cannot   be   ruled   out.  
The
 
bag inflates

  almost   instantly   (within   a  
few

  milliseconds)   then   deflates   within  
the same time discharging the hot gas
via

  openings   provided   for   this   purpose.Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by
  its   spokes   or   resting   your   hands   on  
the

  centre   part   of   the   wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet
on
  the   dashboard.
Do
  not   smoke   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.
Do
  not   fit   or   attach   anything   to   the  
steering wheel or dashboard, this could
cause

  injuries   with   deployment   of   the  
airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the
seats, compatible with the deployment
the

  lateral   airbags.   For   information  
on the range of seat covers suitable
for your vehicle, you can contact a
CITROËN dealer

.
For more information on accessories,
refer to "Other accessories" in
section 6.
Do
  not   fix   or   attach   anything   to   the   seat  
backs

  (clothing...).  
This
  could   cause  
injury

  to   the   chest   or   arms   if   the   lateral  
airbag

  is   deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the
body any nearer to the door than
necessary.
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 deployment of an airbag or airbags
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of
 
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.
The passenger's front airbag must
be deactivated if a child seat is
installed
 
rearward
 
facing.

swan

  neck.
After use
For
 
journeys
 
made
 
without
 
a
 
trailer
 
or

 
load   carrier,   the   swan   neck   must  
be

 
removed   and   the   blanking   plug  
inserted

  in   the   carrier.  
This
  measure  
applies

  particularly   if   the   swan   neck  
could hinder visibility of the number
plate

  or   lighting.Removal
Maintenance
Correct operation is only possible if the
swan  neck   and   its   carrier   remain   clean.
Before cleaning the vehicle with a high
pressure
  jet   wash,   the   swan   neck   must  
be

  removed   and   the   blanking   plug  
inserted

  in   the   carrier.

Cooling system
Only use the fluid recommended by the manufacturer.
Otherwise,
  you   risk   seriously   damaging  
your

  engine.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is controlled
by
  the   engine   fan.  
As
  this   fan   can  
operate

  with   the   ignition   key   removed  
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying

  out   any   work.
Slacken
  the   cap   by   1/4   of   a   turn   to  
release the pressure to prevent any
risk

  of   scalding.   When   the   pressure  
has dropped, remove the cap and top
up

  the   level   with   coolant.
If
  fluid   has   to   be   added   frequently,  
this indicates a fault which must be
checked

  by   a   CITROËN   dealer   as  
soon

  as   possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level ground  with   the   engine   cold.   Unscrew  
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check

  the   level   which   must   be   between  
the

  MIN   and   MAX   marks. In
  order   to   regenerate   the   filter,   you  are advised to drive at a speed higher
than
  40   mph   (60   km/h)   for   at   least   five  minutes as soon as possible, when
traffic
  conditions   permit   (until   the  
message disappears and the service
warning

  lamp   goes   off).
During regeneration of the particle
emission
  filter,   the   noise   of   a   relay  
operating may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and
if the service warning lamp remains
on, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified

  workshop.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN
and
 
MAX
 
marks
 
on
 
the
 
expansion
 
bottle.

 
If
 
more
 
than
 
1
 
litre
 
of
 
fluid
 
is
 
required to top up the level, have the
system

 
checked
 
by
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer
 
or

 
a
 
qualified
 
workshop.
Screenwash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products   of   the   CITROËN   range.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing,
  this   fluid   must   not   be   topped  
up

  or   replaced   with   plain   water.
Capacity
  of   the   screenwash   reservoir:  
approximately

  3   litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a  CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
workshop

  without   delay.
Waste products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with  the   skin.
Brake
  fluid   is   harmful   to   health   and  
very

  corrosive.
Do
  not   dispose   of   used   oil,   brake   fluid  
or coolant into drains or into the ground
but into the containers dedicated to this
use at a CITROËN dealer (France) or
an

  authorised   waste   disposal   site.
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the service
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in the
screen.
When this occurs with the engine
running it is due to the start of
saturation
 
of
 
the
 
particle
 
filter
 
(exceptionally prolonged urban type
driving

 
conditions:
 
low
 
speed,
 
long
 
traffic

 
jams,
 
...).

Good practice
Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with the
  manufacturer's   servicing   schedule.
In order to avoid damaging the
electrical units, we strongly
advise you not to use high
pressure washing to clean the engine
compartment.
After washing the vehicle dampness,
or
 
in
  winter,   ice   may   form   on   the   brake  
discs

  and   pads:   braking   efficiency   may  
be

 
reduced.   Make   some   light   brake  
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes.
If this warning lamp comes
on,

 
bleed
 
the
 
filter.
 
Otherwise
 
bleed regularly each time the
engine

 
oil
 
is
 
changed.
HDi engines use advanced
technology.
 
All

 
work
 
requires
 
special training, so should be
entrusted

 
to
 
a
 
CITROËN
 
dealer.
Depending
 
on
 
country
 
of
 
sale.
To drain the water, unscrew the bleed
screw
 
located
 
on
 
the
 
filter.
Operate until all of the water no longer
flows
 
in
 
the
 
transparent
 
pipe,
 
then
 
tighten

 
the
 
bleed
 
screw.
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality  and   specification.
In order to optimise the operation
of
 
units   as   important   as   the   braking  
system, CITROËN selects and of

fers
specific   products.

REFUELLING
Low fuel level
Filling
The  fuel   tank   must   be   filled   with the
engine off.
-
 
Open
  the   fuel   filler   flap.
-
 
Insert
  the   key,   then   turn   it   a   quarter  
turn.
-

 
Remove
  the   cap   and   hook   it   onto  
the clip located on the inside of the
flap. When

  filling   with   fuel,  a
mechanical system prevents
opening
  of   the   left-hand   side   door.  
When

  the   fuel   filler   flap   is   open,   ensure  
that

  no   one   tries   to   slide   this   door.
Once
  the   flap   has   been   closed,   the  
sliding

  side   door   may   jam,   push   the  
door

  to   close   it   then   open   it.
When the low fuel level is
reached, this warning lamp
comes
 
on. A
 

label   affixed   to   the   inside   of   the   flap  
reminds you of the type of fuel to be
used.
Y

ou   must   fill   with   at   least   5   litres   of   fuel  
for

  it   to   be   registered   by   the   fuel   gauge.
When
  the   fuel   filler   cap   is   opened,  
there

  may   be   a   slight   inrush   of   air.  
This
 
vacuum is entirely normal and is due to
the

  sealing   of   the   fuel   system.
When
  filling   the   fuel   tank,   do   not  
continue after the 3rd cut-off of the
nozzle.
 This
 
could
 
cause   malfunctions.
The
 
capacity
 
of
 
the
 
fuel   tank   is  
approximately 60 litres (or 55 litres
according

 
to
 
version).
-
 
After

 
filling
 
the
 
fuel   tank,   lock   the  
cap

 
and
 
close
 
the   flap.
You then have approximately 8 litres
of
 
fuel
 
remaining.
Fill up without delay to avoid running
out
 
of
 
fuel.
Never
 
risk
 
driving
 
until
 
you
 
run
 
out
 
of
 
fuel as this may damage the emissions
control

 
and
 
injection
 
systems.
