ROOF BARS
The design of your vehicle requires
the use of roof bars and roof box-
es that are tested and approved by
CITROËN, for your safety and to avoid
damage to the roof and tailgate
Regardless of the type of loading
equipment to be transported on the
roof (roof box, bicycle carrier, ski
carrier...), it is imperative that you
add transverse roof bars.
Recommendations

 Distribute your load evenly, avoid-
ing overloading on one side.

 Arrange the heaviest part of the
load as close as possible to the
roof.

 Anchor the load securely and
signal if any part of it is over-
hanging.

 Drive gently, as the vehicle will
be more liable to the effects of
side winds (vehicle stability may
be altered).

 Remove the roof bars as soon
as they are no longer needed. Bicycle carrier
The installation of a bicycle carrier
on the tailgate of the 3-door model is
strictly prohibited.
Maximum load that can be dis-
tributed on the roof bars (for a
loading height not exceeding
40 cm; except bicycle carrier): 80 kg.
If the height exceeds 40 cm, adapt
your speed to the profi le of the road
to avoid damaging the roof bars
and the fi xings on the roof.
Please refer to national legislation
in order to comply with the regula-
tions concerning the transportation
of objects which are longer than
the vehicle.
* According to country.
VERY COLD CLIMATE SCREEN *
Removable device which prevents
the accumulation of snow at the ra-
diator cooling fan.
Fitting

 Offer up the very cold climate
screen to the front of the lower
section of the front bumper.

 Press on its periphery to clip its
fi xing clips one by one.
Removal

 Use a screwdriver as a lever to
unclip each fi xing clip in turn.
Do not forget to remove the very
cold climate screen:
- when the outside temperature exceeds 10 °C,
- when towing,
- at speeds higher than 75 mph (120 km/h).

FM WAVEBAND PREFERENCES
ACTIVATE FREQUENCY FOLLOWING (RDS)
The external environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks) may block reception, includi ng in RDS mode. This is a normal effect of the way in which radio waves are transmitted and does not indicate any failure of the audio equipment.
RDS
The RDS, if displayed, enables you to continue listening to the same station by automatic retuning to alternative freque ncies. However, in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be assured throughout the country as radio stations do not cover 100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception of the station during a journey.

The MP3 format, an abbreviation of MPEG 1.2 & 2.5 Audio Layer 3, is an audio compression standard which permits the recording of several tens of music fi les on a single disc.
In order to be able to play a recorded CDR or CDRW , when recording it is preferable to select standards ISO 9660 level 1.2 or Joliet. If the disc is recorded in another format, it may not be played correctly. It is recommended that the same recording standard is always used for an individual disc, with as low a speed as possible (4x maximum) for optimum sound quality. In the particular case of a multi-session CD, the Joliet standard is recommended.
The audio equipment will only play fi les with the extension ".mp3" with a sampling rate of 22.05 KHz or 44.1 KHz. No o ther type of fi le (.wma, .mp4, .m3u...) can be played.
It is advisable to restrict fi le names to 20 characters without using special characters (e.g. " " ? ; ù) to avoid any pl aying or displaying problems.
