FAMILIARISATION

Limit the causes of excess
consumption

Spread loads throughout the vehicle;
place the heaviest items in the bottom
of the boot, as close as possible to the
rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle
and reduce wind resistance (roof bars,
roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). Use
a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after
use.

At the end of winter, remove snow tyres
and refi t your summer tyres.



Observe the recommendations
on maintenance

Check the tyre pressures regularly,
when cold, referring to the label in the
door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:


- before a long journey,

- at each change of season,

- after a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the
tyres on any trailer or caravan.


Have your vehicle serviced regularly (en-
gine oil, oil fi lter, air fi lter...) and observe
the schedule of operations recommended
by the manufacturer.




When refuelling, do not continue after
the 3 rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid
any overfl ow.

At the wheel of your new vehicle,
it is only after the fi rst 1 800 miles
(3 000 kilometres) that you will see
the fuel consumption settle down to a
consistent average.

Switch off the headlamps and front
foglamps when the level of light does
not require their use.

Avoid running the engine before mov-
ing off, particularly in winter; your ve-
hicle will warm up much faster while
driving.

As a passenger, if you avoid connect-
ing your multimedia devices (fi lm, mu-
sic, video game...), you will contribute
towards limiting the consumption of
electrical energy, and so of fuel.
Disconnect your portable devices be-
fore leaving the vehicle.

MONITORING









Indicator and warning lamps

Visual indicators informing the driver that a system is in
operation (operation or deactivation indicator lamps) or of
the occurrence of a fault (warning lamp).

When the ignition is switched on
Certain warning lamps come on for a few seconds when
the vehicle's ignition is switched on.
When the engine is started, these same warning lamps
should go off.
If they remain on, before moving off, refer to the informa-
tion on the warning lamp concerned.
Associated warnings
The illumination of certain warning lamps may be accompanied
by an audible signal and a message in the multifunction screen.

Operation indicator lamps
If one of the following indicator lamps comes on, this confi rms
that the corresponding system has come into operation.
The warning lamps may come on continuously (fi xed)
or fl ash.
Certain warning lamps may come on in two different
modes. Only by relating the type of illumination to the op-
erating status of the vehicle can it be ascertained whether
the situation is normal or whether a fault has occurred.

COMFORT





Rear view mirror

Adjustable mirror providing a central
rearward view.
Equipped with an anti-dazzle sys-
tem, which darkens the mirror glass:
this reduces the nuisance to the
driver caused by the headlamps
from following vehicles, low sun...


Manual day/night model

Adjustment


)
Adjust the mirror so that the
glass is directed correctly in the
"day" position.


Day/night position


)
Pull the lever to change to the
"night" anti-dazzle position.

)
Push the lever to change to the
normal "day" position.

By means of a sensor, which mea-
sures the light from the rear of the
vehicle, this system automatically
and progressively changes between
the day and night uses.
STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT
The height and reach of the steer-
ing wheel can be adjusted to adapt
the driving position to the size of the
driver.

the most suitable position.

)


When stationary
, pull the control
lever to unlock the steering wheel
adjustment.

)
Adjust for height and reach.

)
Push the control lever to lock the
steering wheel adjustment.
After locking, if you press fi rmly on
the steering wheel, a slight click may

As a safety measure, the mirrors
should be adjusted to reduce the
"blind spot".

operations must only be carried out
while the vehicle is stationary.
In order to ensure optimum visibility
during your manoeuvres, the mirror
lightens automatically when reverse
gear is engaged.

ACCESS

Deadlocking using the key


)
Turn the key to the right in the driv-
er's door lock to lock the vehicle
completely and hold it in this posi-
tion for more than two seconds to
close the windows automatically
in addition to locking.

)
Turn the key to the right again
within fi ve seconds to deadlock
the vehicle.
Deadlocking renders the exterior and
interior door controls inoperative.
It also deactivates the manual cen-
tral control button.
Therefore, never leave anyone in-
side the vehicle when it is dead-
locked. Deadlocking also triggers the timed
illumination of the exterior side spot
lamps and guide-me-home lighting,
if this is activated.

)
First press this button to fold the
key.
If you do not press the button when
folding the key, there is a risk of
damage to the mechanism.








Locating your vehicle

This function allows you to identify
your vehicle from a distance, espe-
cially when the light is poor. Your ve-
hicle must be locked.


)
Press the closed padlock on the
remote control.
This will bring on the courtesy lamps
and exterior side spotlamps, as well
as fl ashing the direction indicators
for a few seconds.


Remote operation of lighting











Anti-theft protection


Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip
which has a special code. When the
ignition is switched on, this code
must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser
locks the engine management sys-
tem a few minutes after the ignition
is switched off and prevents starting
of the engine by anyone who does
not have the key.
In the event of a fault,
you are informed by il-
lumination of this warn-
ing lamp, an audible
signal and a message in the screen.
In this case, your vehicle will not
start; contact a CITROËN dealer as
soon as possible.
Keep safely the label attached to the
keys given to you on acquisition of
the vehicle.


Folding the key
A press on this button
brings on the temporary
illumination of sidelamps,
dipped beam headlamps,
number plate lamps and
the exterior side spotlamps located
underneath the door mirrors.
A second press before the end of the
timed period cancels the command.
Deadlocking is confi rmed by fi xed
lighting of the direction indicators for
approximately two seconds.
According to version, the door mir-
rors fold at the same time.
