Maintenance indicator
System which informs the driver

accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing schedule.
The point at which the service is due
is calculated from the last indicator
zero reset. It is determined by two
parameters:
- the distance travelled,
- the time elapsed since the last service. 5 seconds after the ignition is switched
on,
the spanner is switched off ; the
distance recorder resumes its normal
operation. The display then indicates
the total and trip distances.
Less than 620 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service
is due

Example: 560 miles (900 km) re-
main before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates: Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on,

before the next service is due.

Example: 4 800 miles/km remain
before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
The distance remaining may be

whether the engine oil level is cor-
rect or not.
This information is displayed for a
few seconds when the ignition is
switched on, after the service infor-
mation.
The level read will only be correct if
the vehicle is on level ground and
the engine has been off for more
than 15 minutes.
Oil level correct
Oil level low
This is indicated by the fl ashing of

"OIL" , accompanied by an audible
signal and a message on the multi-
function screen.
If the low oil level is confi rmed by a
check using the dipstick, it is essen-
tial that the level is topped up to pre-
vent damage to the engine. Oil level gauge fault
This is indicated by the fl ashing of

"OIL--" . Contact a CITROËN dealer.
Dipstick
Refer to the "Checks" section to
locate the dipstick and the oil fi ller
cap on your engine. There are 2 marks on

The air blower operates only when
the engine is running (except when
the REST function is activated).
To adjust the fl ow of air, press on the
button:
to increase the air fl ow,
to decrease the air fl ow (this
button also has the REST
function).
The level of air fl ow is indicated on
the display by the progressive fi lling
of the ventilator blades.
If you place the air blower on posi-
tion 0 , the system is deactivated.
The air blower display will be empty,
with the indication OFF.

Function for retaining
ventilation with the engine
switched off

The REST function is availa-
ble when you switch on the ignition
and when you stop the engine.
This function allows you to retain
ventilation in the passenger com-
partment for a few minutes, even
with the engine stopped.
When you leave the vehicle, any
passengers present can still have
the benefi t of air circulation, even
though the engine is not running.
Engine stopped, ignition switched
on:
- The displays will light up, with the air blower shown empty as
long as the function is available.
- A press on the REST button acti- vates the function for a timing of
just a few minutes. Two blades of
the blower will fi ll to signify that
the function is active.
- It can be deactivated and reacti- vated during the timing.
- At the end of the timing, the dis- play will go off. This button does not activate the air
conditioning, only the air blowers. In
the REST function, the air fl ow and
distribution are controlled automati-
cally and you cannot modify them.

On stopping the engine:
- The displays remain lit up, the blower is shown empty and the
function can be activated for
30 seconds.
- A press on the REST button during the next 30 seconds ac-
tivates the function for a timing
of several minutes. The dura-
tion and availability of the func-
tion are variable according to the
state of charge of the battery (a
protection to guarantee engine
starting). Two blower blades fi ll
up to signify that the function is
active. It remains active, even af-
ter the doors have been locked,
until the end of the timing.
- A further press before the end of the timing defi nitively stops the
function. 4. Adjustment of the air
distribution

 Press on button 4 so that
the air fl ows scroll suc-
cessively on the display.
The air distribution you have chosen
is confi rmed by the lighting of the

This button activates the recircula-
tion of air within the passenger com-
partment and also has an automatic
function.
Entry of air in automatic
mode (activated by default, in
automatic comfort regulation)
According to version, the automatic
mode makes use of an air quality
sensor. This analyses the air and
isolates the passenger compart-
ment from the exterior as soon as it
detects the presence of pollutants.
Then it automatically activates recir-
culation of cabin air.

within fi ve seconds to deadlock
the vehicle.
Deadlocking is confi rmed by fi xed
lighting of the direction indicators for
approximately two seconds.
According to version, the exterior
mirrors fold at the same time.
Deadlocking renders the exterior and
interior door controls inoperative.
It also deactivates the manual
central control button.

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.

function, you are in-
formed by lighting of
this warning lamp, an
audible signal and
a message on the multifunction
screen.
In this case, your vehicle does not
start; contact a CITROËN dealer as
soon as possible.
