Lost keys
Go to a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your personal identification   documents   and   if   possible   the   key   code   label.
The
  CITROËN   dealer   will   be   able   to   look   up   the   key   code   and   the   transponder   code  
r

equired   to   order   a   new   key.
Remote control / Electronic key
These high frequency devices are sensitive systems; do not handle them while in your pocket   as   there   is   a   risk   of   unlocking   the   vehicle,   without   you   being   aware   of   it.
Do
  not   repeatedly   press   the   buttons   of   your   remote   control   or   electronic   key   out   of   range  
a

nd   out   of   sight   of   your   vehicle.   You   run   the   risk   of   stopping   it   from   working   and   the   remote  
c

ontrol   would   have   to   be   reinitialised.
Locking the vehicle
As a safety precaution, never leave children alone in the vehicle, except for a very short period.
In
  all   cases,   it   is   essential   to   remove   the   key   from   the   ignition   switch,   or   take   the   electronic  
k

ey   with   you   when   leaving   the   vehicle.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a CITROËN dealer, to ensure   that   only   your   keys   can   be   used   to   open   and   start   the   vehicle.
Driving
  with   the   doors   locked   may   make   access   to   the   passenger   compartment   by   the  
e

mergency   services   more   difficult   in   an   emergency.

An aero-acoustic deflector is available to improve   the   acoustic   comfort   of   occupants   of  
t

he   vehicle   in   certain   driving   conditions  
(high
  speed),   by   reducing   the   turbulence   in  
t

he   passenger   compartment   resulting   from   the  
d

isplacement   of   air.
On
  opening   the   roof,   the   aero-acoustic  
d

eflector   is   deployed.
On
  closing   the   roof,   the   deflector   folds   away  
au

tomatically.
Aero-acoustic deflector Precautions for use
Never place objects on the roof, w
hether   open   or   closed.
Never
  sit   on   or   place   objects   on   the  
t

ransverse roof support when the roof
is
  open. In
  the   event   of   prolonged   storage   of   the  v
ehicle   outside,   it   is   recommended   that  
t

he   roof   be   protected   with   a   cover.
To
  avoid   damaging   the   roof,   do  
n

ot   open   it   under   snowy   or   frosty  
c

onditions.
Never
  use   sharp   tools   to   remove   ice   or  
a

ccumulations   of   snow   on   the   roof.
To
  limit   the   creation   of   folds   in   the   roof  
f

abric,   it   is   recommended   that   the   roof  
n

ot   be   left   open   for   long   periods.
The
  vehicle's   air   conditioning   system  
s

hould   not   be   operated   while   the   roof  
i

s   open. It
  is   recommended   that   the   roof   be  
c

losed   when   the   vehicle   is   left   parked.
Even
  if   the   roof   is   closed,   it   is   prudent  
n

ot   to   leave   any   valuable   objects   inside  
t

he   vehicle.
When you leave the vehicle, switch off
the
  ignition   and   remove   the   key   (take  
t

he   electronic   key   with   you)   to   avoid   any  
u

nwanted   operation   of   the   roof.
