NEVER REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY BEFORE THE ENGINE HAS COME TO A COMPLETE STOP.
IT IS ESSENTIAL ALWAYS TO DRIVE WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING, SO AS TO RETAIN STEERING AND BRAKING ASSISTANCE (risk of the steering lock engaging and loss of safety features).
When stationary, having removed the key, carefully turn the steering wheel if you wish to lock the steering.
S: Steering lock
To unlock the steering, gently move the steering wheel while turning the key, without exerting undue force.
When you remove the key, turn your steering wheel to lock the steering. The key can only be removed when in position S.
Economy mode
When the engine is stopped, some functions (audio system, screen wipe, electric windows, sunroof, electric seats, telephone, video, interior lighting etc.) are only electrically supplied for a maximum period of 30 minutes, to avoid discharging the battery.
Once this period is over, a message is displayed on the instrument panel screen and the active functions are placed on standby.
The electrical components relating to comfort and also the headlamps (not sidelamps or hazard warning lamps) cut out automatically. To reactivate them, it is necessary to start the engine.

This button activates the recirculation of air in the passenger compart-ment.
Press button 8 to switch off the entry of air from outside. The warning lamp comes on.
Whilst retaining the other settings, this position allows the driver at any moment to exclude unpleasant smells or smoke/emissions coming from outside.
This mode should be cancelled as soon as possible to allow the redistribution of air in the pas-senger compartment.
8. Air recirculation – Entry of air from outsideRemarks:When starting from cold, in order to prevent unwanted cold air, the air fl ow will increase only gradually to its optimum level.
If you enter the vehicle after a fairly prolonged stop and the temperature inside the vehicle is far from comfortable, it serves no purpose to modify the tem-perature that is displayed as an attempt to go immediately to the desired comfort level. The system automatically uses all of its power to compensate the temperature gap as quickly as possible.Water arising from the conden-sation in the air conditioning drains out through a hole pro-vided for this purpose ; a pool of water may thus form under-neath the vehicle when station-ary.
Whatever the time of year, even in cool weather the air condition-ing is useful in removing humid-ity and misting. Avoid driving for too long with air conditioning deactivated.

Switching off the entry of air
Press button 6 to switch off the entry of air from outside.
Whilst retaining the other settings, this position allows the driver at any moment to exclude unpleas-ant smells or smoke/emissions coming from outside.
This mode should be cancelled as soon as possible to allow the redistribution of air in the pas-senger compartment.

7. Rear demisting - deicing
Press button 7, with the engine running, to start a rapid deicing or demisting of the rear screen and rear view mirrors. The warning lamp comes on.
This mode automatically stops depending on the outside tempera-ture. It can be interrupted by a fur-ther press on button 7 or by stop-ping the engine.
In some cases, “AUTO” mode may not be suf-fi cient to demist or defrost the windows (e.g. humidity, several passengers, frost).
Press button 8 for rapid clear win-dows. The warning lamp comes on. This system controls air con-ditioning, temperature and air fl ow/entry. It distributes ventilation towards the windscreen and the front windows.
You can manually exit “Demisting” mode. This mode should be can-celled as soon as possible to allow the redistribution of air in the pas-senger compartment.
A press on either of the buttons 1aor 1b allows you to return to “AUTO” mode.
8. Front demisting - deicing
Remarks:
When starting from cold, in order to prevent unwanted cold air, the air fl ow will increase only gradually to its optimum level.
If you enter the vehicle after a fairly prolonged stop and the temperature inside the vehicle is far from comfortable, it serves no purpose to modify the tem-perature that is displayed as an attempt to go immediately to the desired comfort level. The sys-tem automatically uses all of its power to compensate the tem-perature gap as quickly as pos-sible.
Water arising from the conden-sation in the air conditioning drains out through a hole pro-vided for this purpose ; a pool of water may thus form under-neath the vehicle when station-ary.
Whatever the time of year, even in cool weather the air condition-ing is useful in removing humid-ity and misting. Avoid driving for too long with air conditioning deactivated.

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
Traffi c Announcements (TA) is displayed. I do not receive any traffi c informa-tion or public announce-ments.
The particular radio station is not in the regional traffi c information network.Change to a radio station that does broadcast traffi c information.
The reception quality of the radio station being lis-tened to gradually deterio-rates.
The vehicle is too distant from the transmit-ter, or no transmitter is present in the geo-graphical area you are passing through.
Activate the RDS function to allow the system to check whether a more pow-erful transmitter is to be found in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, high buildings, tun-nels, underground car parks, etc.) is blocking reception, even in RDS mode.
This phenomenon is normal and does not imply anything wrong with the radio.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example after going through a car wash or in an underground car park).
Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Cutting out of sound for 1 to 2 seconds in radio mode.
The RDS system during this brief sound cut-off is searching for a better frequency that might offer improved reception of the station.
Deactivate the RDS function if the phe-nomenon occurs too frequently and always on the same journey.
When the engine is not running, the radio stops after a few minutes.
When the engine is switched off, the work-ing time for the radio depends on the battery charge. The interruption is normal: the radio goes into economy mode, cutting off in order to save the vehicle’s battery.
You have to start the engine so as to increase the battery charge.
The message “the audio system is overheating” appears on the screen.
In order to protect the audio equipment in excessive ambient temperatures, the radio goes into an automatic thermic protection mode which results in a reduction in sound volume or stopping of the CD player.
Switch off the audio system for a few minutes in order to allow the system to cool down.

If you should put in fuel that is not suitable for your vehicle's engine type, it is imperative to have the tank drained be fore you start the engine again.
While you are refuelling, the engine must be stopped and the ignition switched off.
For a petrol engine with a cata-lytic converter, unleaded fuel is compulsory.
The fi ller neck is narrower to ensure that only unleaded petrol can be put in.
When you are seeking to fi ll your tank, do not persist after the third cut-off ; this could cause your vehicle to malfunction.
Fuel fl ap
To open, press at the top left-hand corner, then pull open from the left.
Locking fi ller cap
Turn the key a quarter turn to lock and unlock the fi ller cap.
When refuelling, place the cap on hook A.
Fuel quality
A label inside the fi ller fl ap tells you which type of fuel to use.
The petrol engines are designed to run on RON 95.
However, for better perform-ance (petrol engine), we recom-mend RON 98.
Tank capacity
The tank has a capacity of approxi-mately 71 litres.
