, you must switch on
the dipped
beam headlamps manually.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor
located on the windscreen, behind
the

"Leave them open"
For optimum distribution and diffusion
of hot or cool air in the passenger
compartment,
there are adjustable
central and side vents which can
be directed sideways (right or left)
or
vertically (up or down). For your
comfort while driving, do not close
them
and direct the flow of air towards
the
windows instead.
Air vents in the footwells and directed
towards the windscreen complete the
equipment.
Do
not block the vents located at the
windscreen or the air extractor located
in
the boot.
Dust filter, odour filter
(activated carbon)
This filter traps certain dust and limits odours.
Ensure that this filter is in good
condition
and have all of the filter
elements
replaced regularly.
Refer
to the "Checks" section of
chapter
7.
Air conditioning
In all seasons, the air conditioning
should only be used with the
windows closed. However, if the
interior temperature remains high
after
a prolonged period parked in
the
sun, first ventilate the passenger
compartment
for a few minutes.
Use the AUTO mode as much as
possible as it permits optimised
control
of all of the functions: air flow,
passenger compartment comfort
temperature, air distribution, air
intake
mode or air recirculation in the
passenger
compartment.
Operate the air conditioning system for
5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month,
to
keep it in good working order.
If the system does not produce cold air,
do not use it and contact a CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Automatic mode: visibility
programme
The comfort programme (AUTO) may
not
be
sufficient
to
quickly
demist
or
defrost the windows (humidity
, several
passengers,
ice).
In this case, select the visibility
programme.
The
visibility
programme
indicator
comes
on.
It activates the air conditioning, the air
flow
and
provides
optimum
distribution
of the ventilation to the windscreen and
side
windows.
It
deactivates
the
air
recirculation. It is normal that the condensation
created by the air conditioning system
results
in a flow of water which may
form a puddle under the vehicle when
parked.

Seat belts
Recommendations for children:
-
use a suitable child seat if the
passenger is less than 12 years old
or
shorter
than
one
metre
fifty,
-
never allow a child to travel on
your lap, even with the seat belt
fastened. For more information on child
seats, refer to the "Child safety"
section
of
chapter
5.
Clean the seat belt straps with
soapy water or a textile cleaning
product, sold by CITROËN
dealers.
In accordance with current safety
regulations, your CITROËN dealer can
guarantee
all
work
or
any
checks,
from
testing to maintenance, on your seat
belt
equipment.
Have
the
seat
belts
checked
regularly
(even after a minor impact) by a
CITROËN
dealer
or
a
qualified
workshop:
they
must
not
show
any
signs of wear
, cutting or fraying
and they must not be converted or
modified.
The force limiter reduces the pressure
of the seat belt against the body of the
occupants.
The pretensioning seat belts are active
when
the
ignition
is
switched
on.
The
inertia
reels
are
fitted
with
a
device
which
automatically
locks
the
strap
in
the event of a collision or emergency
braking
or
if
the
vehicle
rolls
over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by
pressing
the
red
button
on
the
buckle.
Guide
the
seat
belt
after
unfastening.
The airbag warning lamp comes on
if
the
pretensioners
are
deployed.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop.
In
order
to
be
effective,
a
seat
belt:
-
must restrain one person only
,
-
must
not
be
twisted,
check
by
pullin
g in front of you with an even
movement,
-
must be tightened as close to the
body
as
possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should
be positioned in the hollow of the
shoulder.
The lap part should be placed as low
as
possible
on
the
pelvis.
Do not interchange the seat belt
buckles
as
they
will
not
fulfil
their
role
properly
.
If
the
seats
are
fitted
with
armrests, the lap part of the seat belt
should
always
pass
under
the
armrest.
Check
that
the
seat
belt
is
fastened
correctly
by
pulling
the
strap
firmly.
Front seat belts
The front seats are fitted with pretensioners and force limiters.
Rear seat belts
(5 seat version)
The rear seats are fitted with
three-point inertia reel seat belts.

Advice
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear
a correctly adjusted seat belt.
Do not allow anything to come between
the occupants and the airbags
(a
child, pet, object...), do not attach or
fix
anything near to the airbags or their
trajectories
when inflating as this could
cause
injuries when the airbags are
deployed.
Never
modify the original definition of
your vehicle, particularly in the area
directly
around the airbags.
After an accident or if the vehicle has
been
stolen or broken into, have the
airbag
systems checked.
All
work on the airbag system must be
carried out by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop.
Even if all of the precautions
mentioned
are observed, a risk of
injury
or of minor burns to the head,
chest or arms when an airbag is
deployed
cannot be ruled out.
The
bag inflates
almost instantly (within a
few
milliseconds) then deflates within
the same time discharging the hot gas
via
openings provided for this purpose.Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel
by
its spokes or resting your hands on
the
centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet
on
the dashboard.
Do
not smoke as deployment of the
airbags
can cause burns or the risk of
injury
from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering
wheel
or hit it violently.
Do
not fit or attach anything to the
steering wheel or dashboard, this could
cause
injuries with deployment of the
airbags.
Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the
seats, compatible with the deployment
the
lateral airbags. For information
on the range of seat covers suitable
for your vehicle, you can contact a
CITROËN dealer
.
For more information on accessories,
refer to "Other accessories" in
section 6.
Do
not fix or attach anything to the seat
backs
(clothing...).
This
could cause
injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral
airbag
is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the
body any nearer to the door than
necessary.
Airbags only operate when the
ignition is switched on.
This
equipment
only
operates
once.
If a second impact occurs (during the
same or a subsequent accident), the
airbag
will
not
operate.
The deployment of an airbag or airbags
is accompanied by a slight discharge
of
smoke
and
a
noise,
due
to
the
activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge
incorporated
in
the
system.
This
smoke
is
not
harmful,
but
sensitive individuals may experience
some
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may result
in a slight loss of hearing for a short
time.
The passenger's front airbag must
be deactivated if a child seat is
installed
rearward
facing.

5,

safety"
