RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILA TION AND AIR CONDITIONING
In order for  these  systems  to  be  fully  ef fective,  follow  the  operation  and  maintenance
  guidelines   below:
F
 
T
o  
obtain
 
an
 
even
 
air
 
distribution,
 
take
 
care
 
not
 
to
 
obstruct
 
the
 
exterior
 
air

 
intake
 
grille
s  
located
 
at
 
the
 
base
 
of
 
the
 
windscreen,
 
the
 
nozzles,
 
the
 
vents

 
and
 
the
 
air
 
outlets,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
the
 
air
 
extractor
 
located
 
in
 
the
 
boot.
F

 
Do
 
not
 
cover
 
the
 
sunshine
 
sensor
,  
located
 
on
 
the
 
dashboard;
 
this
 
is
 
used

  for   regulation   of   the   air   conditioning   system.
F
 
Operate
 
the
 
air
 
conditioning
 
system
 
for
 
at
 
least
 
5
 
to
 
10
 
minutes,
 
once
 
or
 
twice

  a   month   to   keep   it   in   perfect   working   order.
F
 
Ensure
 
that
 
the
 
passenger
 
compartment
 
filter
 
is
 
in
 
good
 
condition
 
and
 
have

  the   filter   elements   replaced   regularly.
  W

e  
recommend
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
a
 
combined
 
passenger
 
compartment
 
filter
.  
Thanks

 
to
 
its
 
special
 
active
 
additive,
 
it
 
contributes
 
to
 
the
 
purification
 
of
 
the

 
air
 
breathed
 
by
 
the
 
occupants
 
and
 
the
 
cleanliness
 
of
 
the
 
passenger
 
compartment

 
(reduction
 
of
 
allergic
 
symptoms,
 
bad
 
odours
 
and
 
greasy
 
deposits).
F

 
T
o  
ensure
 
correct
 
operation
 
of
 
the
 
air
 
conditioning
 
system,
 
you
 
are
 
also
 
advised

 
to
 
have
 
it
 
checked
 
regularly
 
as
 
recommended
 
in
 
the
 
mainte
-
nance
  and   warranty   guide.
F
 
If
 
the
 
system
 
does
 
not
 
produce
 
cold
 
air
,  
switch
 
it
 
of
f  
and
 
contact
 
a
 
CITROËN

  dealer   or   a   qualified   workshop.
When
 
towing
 
the
 
maximum
 
load
 
on
 
a
 
steep
 
gradient
 
in
 
high
 
temperatures,
 
switching

 
of
f  
the
 
air
 
conditioning
 
increases
 
the
 
available
 
engine
 
power
 
and
 
so

  improves   the   towing   ability. If
 
after
 
an
 
extended
 
stop
 
in
 
sun
-
shine,  
the
 
interior
 
temperature
 
is
 very
 high,  first  ventilate  the  pas -
senger  compartment  for  a  few  moments.
Put
 
the
 
air
 
flow
 
control
 
at
 
a
 
set
-
ting
 
high
 
enough
 
to
 
quickly
 
change

 
the
 
air
 
in
 
the
 
passenger
 
compartment.
The

 
air
 
conditioning
 
system
 
does

 
not
 
contain
 
chlorine
 
and
 
does

 
not
 
present
 
any
 
danger
 
to
 
the

  ozone   layer.
The
 
condensation
 
created
 
by
 
the

 
air
 
conditioning
 
results
 
in
 
a
 
discharge

 
of
 
water
 
under
 
the
 
ve
-
hicle
  which   is   perfectly   normal.
Stop & Start
The
 
heating
 
and
 
air
 
conditioning
 
systems
 
only
 
work
 
when
 
the
 
engine
 
is
 
running.

 
T
o  
maintain
 
a
 
comfortable
 
temperature
 
in
 
the
 
passenger
 
compart
-
ment,
 
you
 
can
 
temporarily
 
deactivate
 
the

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

Remote control
The high frequency  remote  control  is  a  sensitive  system;  do  not  operate  it  while
 it  is  in  your  pocket  as  there  is  a  possibility  that  it  may  unlock  the  ve -
hicle,
  without   you   being   aware   of   it.

switch,
 
even
 
when

  the   ignition   is   switched   off,   except   for   reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the  doors  locked  may  make  access  to  the  passenger  compart -
ment   by   the   emergency   services   more   difficult   in   an   emergency.
As
 
a
 
safety
 
precaution,
 
never
 
leave
 
children
 
alone
 
in
 
the
 
vehicle,
 
except
 
for
 
a

Anti-theft protection
Do not make  any  modifications  to  the  electronic  engine  immobiliser  system;  this
  could   cause   malfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing  of  all  of  the  keys  in  your  possession  checked  by  a  CITROËN

A FEW DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS
Observe the driving  regulations  at  all  times
 and  remain  vigilant  whatever  the  
traffic

  conditions.
Pay
 
close
 
attention
 
to
 
the
 
traffic
 
and
 
keep

 
your
 
hands
 
on
 
the
 
wheel
 
so
 
that
 
you

 
are
 
ready
 
to
 
react
 
at
 
any
 
time
 
to
 
any

  eventuality.
On
 
a
 
long
 
journey
,  
a
 
break
 
every
 
two hours

  is   strongly   recommended.
In
 
difficult
 
weather
,  
drive
 
smoothly
,  
an
-
ticipate
 
the
 
need
 
to
 
brake
 
and
 
increase
 
the

  distance   from   other   vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise  against  driving  on  flooded
 roads,  as  this  could  cause  seri -
ous
 
damage
 
to
 
the
 
engine
 
or
 
gearbox,
 
as

 
well
 
as
 
to
 
the
 
electrical
 
systems
 
of
 
your

  vehicle.
Important!
Never drive  with  the  parking  brake
 applied  -  Risk  of  overheat -
ing
 
and
 
damage
 
to
 
the
 
braking
 
system!
Do

 
not
 
park
 
or
 
run
 
the
 
engine when

stationary in areas where
inflammable substances  and  ma -terials (dry grass,  dead  leaves...) might
 come  into  contact  with  the hot

 
exhaust
 
system 
-  
Risk
 
of
 
fire!
n

ever leave a vehicle unsuper-
vised
 
with
 
the
 
engine
 
running.
 
If
 
you have to leave your vehicle
with

 
the
 
engine
 
running,
 
apply
 
the

 
parking
 
brake
 
and
 
put
 
the
 
gearbox

 
into
 
neutral
 
or
 
posi
-
tion

N
or P,  
depending
 
on
 
the
 
type

  of   gearbox.
If
 
you

 
are

 
obliged

 
to

 
drive

 
through

 
water:
-

 
check

 
that

 
the

 
depth

 
of

 
water

 
does

 
not

 
exceed

 
15

 
cm,

 
taking

 
account

 
of

 
waves

 
that

 
might

 
be

 
generated

 
by

 
other users,
-

 
deactivate

 
the
 
Stop
 
&
 
Start
 
system,
-
 
drive

 
as

 
slowly

 
as

 
possible

 
without

 
stallin

g.
 
In

 
all

 
cases,

 
do

 
not

 
exceed

 
6

 
mph
 
(10
 
km/h),
-
 
do

 
not

 
stop

 
and

 
do

 
not

 
switch

 
of

f
 
the

 
engine.
On

 
leaving

 
the

 
flooded

 
road,

 
as

 
soon

 
as

 
circumstances

 
allow

,
 
make

 
several

 
light

 
brake

 
applications

 
to

 
dry

 
the

 
brake

 
discs

 
and
 
pads.
If
 
in

 
doubt

 
on

 
the

 
state

 
of

 
your

 
vehicle,

 
contact

 
a

 
CITROËN

 
dealer

 
or

 
a

 
quali

-
fied
 
workshop.

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
 
for
 
engine
 
starting
 
to
 
be
 
authorised.
This

 
electronic
 
engine
 
immobiliser
 
locks
 
the

 
engine
 
management
 
system
 
a
 
few
 
minutes

 
after
 
the
 
ignition
 
is
 
switched
 
of
f  
and

 
prevents
 
starting
 
of
 
the
 
engine
 
by
 
anyone

  who   does   not   have   the   key.
In the event of a fault, you
are
 
informed
 
by
 
illu
mina-
tion
 
of
 
this
 
warning
 
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. It

STOP & START
The Stop &  Start  system  puts  the  en -
gine  temporarily  into  standby  -  ST OP mode

 
-
 
during
 
stops
 
in
 
the
 
traffic
 
(red
 
lights,

 
traffic
 
jams,
 
or
 
other
...).

The
 
restart
 
takes
 
place
 
instantly
,  
quickly

  and   silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system
 
reduces
 
fuel
 
consumption
 
and
 
exhaust

 
emissions
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
the
 
noise
 
level

  when   stationary.
