Service indicator
System which informs the driver
when the next service is due, in ac-
cordance 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.
More than 620 miles (1 000 km)
remain before the next service is due
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the spanner symbol-
ising the service operations comes
on. The distance recorder display
line indicates the distance remaining
before the next service is due.

Example: 1 900 miles/km remain
before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates: 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

Examples: 500 miles (900 km) re-
main before the next service is due.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation. The
spanner remains on to indicate that
a service must be carried out soon. Service overdue
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on,
the spanner fl ashes
to indicate that the service must be
carried out as soon as possible.

Example: the service is overdue by
300 miles/km.
For 5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the display indicates:
5 seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the distance recorder
resumes its normal operation. The
spanner remains lit .
The distance remaining may be
weighted by the time factor, depend-
ing on the driver's driving habits.
Therefore, the spanner may also
come on if you have exceeded the
two year service interval.

Service indicator zero reset
After each service, the service indi-
cator must be reset to zero.
The procedure for resetting to zero
is as follows:

 switch off the ignition,

 press and hold the trip distance
recorder zero reset button,

 switch on the ignition; the dis-
tance recorder display begins a
countdown,

 when the display indicates "=0" ,
release the button; the spanner
disappears.
Following this operation, if you wish
to disconnect the battery, lock the
vehicle and wait at least fi ve minutes
for the zero reset to be taken into ac-
count. Engine oil level indicator
System which informs the driver
whether the engine oil level is cor-
rect or not.
This information is indicated 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 displaying of the
message "Oil level incorrect".
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 displaying of the
message "Oil level measurement in-
valid". Consult a CITROËN dealer.

ALARM
System which protects and provides
a deterrent against theft and break-
ins. It provides the following types of
monitoring.
- Exterior perimeter
The system checks for opening of
the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries
to open a door, the boot, the bonnet...
- Interior volumetric
The system checks for any variation in
the volume in the passenger compart-
ment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks
a window, enters the passenger com-
partment or moves inside the vehicle.
- Tilt
The system checks for any change
in the attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle
is lifted, moved or knocked. Locking the vehicle with full
alarm system
Activation

 Switch off the ignition and get out
of the vehicle.

 Press the locking button on the
remote control.
The monitoring system is active: the
indicator lamp on the button fl ashes
once per second.
After the locking button on the re-
mote control is pressed, the exterior
perimeter monitoring is activated
after a delay of 5 seconds and the
interior volumetric and anti-tilt moni-
toring after a delay of 45 seconds.
If an opening (door, boot...) is not
closed fully, the vehicle is not locked
but the exterior perimeter monitor-
ing will be activated after a delay of
45 seconds at the same time as the
interior volumetric and anti-lift moni-
toring. Deactivation

 Press the unlocking button on
the remote control.
The alarm system is deactivated: the in-
dicator lamp on the button switches off.
Locking the vehicle with
exterior perimeter monitoring
only
Deactivate the interior volumetric
and anti-lift monitoring to avoid un-
wanted triggering of the alarm in
certain cases such as:
- leaving a pet in the vehicle,
- leaving a window partially open,
- washing your vehicle,
- changing a wheel,
- having your vehicle towed,
- transportation by sea.
Self-protection function
The system checks for the
putting out of service of its
components.
The alarm is triggered if the bat-
tery, the central control or the
wires of the siren are put out of
service or damaged.
For all work on the alarm system,
contact a CITROËN dealer. Deactivation of the interior
volumetric and anti-lift
monitoring

 Switch off the ignition.

 Within ten seconds, press the
button until the indicator lamp is
lit continuously.

 Get out of the vehicle.

 Press the locking button on the
remote control immediately.
The exterior perimeter monitoring alone is activated: the indicator lamp on the
button fl ashes once per second.
To be effective, this deactivation
must be carried out each time the
ignition is switched off.

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEM
System which detects the involun-
tary crossing of longitudinal traffi c
lane markings on the ground (solid
or broken line).
Sensors, fi tted below the front bum-
per, trigger a warning if the vehicle
drifts over a lane marking (speed
higher than 50 mph (80 km/h)).
This system is particularly useful on
motorways and main roads.
Activation

 Press button A , the indicator
lamp comes on.
Deactivation

 Press button A again, the indica-
tor lamp switches off.
The status of the system remains
in the memory when the ignition is
switched off. Detection
You are warned by the vibration of
the driver's seat cushion:
- on the right-hand side, if the
marking on the ground has been
crossed on the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the mark- ing on the ground has been
crossed on the left.
No warning is transmitted while the
direction indicator is active and for
approximately 20 seconds after the
direction indicator is switched off.
A warning may be transmitted if a direc-
tion marking (e.g. arrow) or non-stan-
dard marking (e.g. graffi ti) is crossed. Operating fault
In the event of a malfunction, the
service warning lamp comes on,
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the multifunction
screen.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
The lane departure warning sys-
tem cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance and
responsibility on the part of the
driver.
The detection may be impeded:
- if the sensors are dirty (mud, snow...),
- if the markings on the ground are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and
the road surface.

The brake fl uid must conform to the
manufacturer's recommendations
and meet the DOT4 standard.
The reading will only be
correct if the vehicle is on
level ground and the engine
has been off for more than

The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator on the instrument
panel, or using the dipstick.
Check this level also between each
scheduled service and before long
journeys. The brake fl uid level should
be close to the "MAX" mark.
If it is not, check the brake
pad wear.
In order to maintain the reli-
ability of the engine and emis-
sion control system, the use
of additives in the engine oil is
