HILL START ASSIST
Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal
pressed, from the time you release the
brake pedal you have approximately
2 seconds before the vehicle starts to
roll back and without using the parking
brake within which to move off.
During the moving off phase, the
function is deactivated automatically,
gradually releasing the braking
pressure. During this phase, the
characteristic noise of mechanical
release of the brakes may be heard,
indicating the imminent movement of
the vehicle.
Operating fault
Hill start assist is deactivated in the
following situations:
- when the clutch pedal is released,
- when the parking brake is applied,
- when the engine is switched off,
- when the engine stalls. If a malfunction of the system
occurs, this warning lamp
comes on accompanied
by an audible signal and
confi rmed by a message in
the screen. Contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop to have the
system checked.
This function, linked with the ESC,
makes hill starts easier and is activated
in the following conditions:
- the vehicle must be stationary,
engine running, foot on the brake,
- the gradient of the road must be steeper than 5%,
- uphill, the gearbox must be in neutral or in a gear other than
reverse,
- downhill, reverse gear must be engaged.
The HHC (Hill Holder Control) or Hill
Start Assist function is a driving comfort
system. It is not an automatic vehicle
parking function or an automatic
parking brake.

Rotate ring
B forwards to switch on
and rearwards to switch off. The status
is confi rmed by the warning lamps in
the instrument panel.
They operate with the sidelamps and
dipped beam headlamps. Do not forget to switch them off
when they are no longer needed.
Operation of the automatic illumination
of headlamps switches off the rear
foglamps, but the front foglamps
remain on.
Programming
For countries where exterior lighting by
day is not a legal requirement, you can
activate or deactivate the function via
the confi guration menu.
To switch off the front and rear
foglamps, turn the ring rearwards twice
in succession.
In clear weather or in rain, both day
and night, rear foglamps dazzle and
their use is prohibited.
Automatic illumination of headlamps
In foggy weather or in snow,
the sunshine sensor may detect
suffi cient light. As a consequence,
the lighting will not come on
automatically. If necessary, you must
switch on the dipped beam headlamps
manually.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor
located on the windscreen,
behind the mirror. It is used for the
automatic illumination of headlamps and
for the automatic rain sensitive wipers.
Activation
Turn the ring to the AUTO position. The
activation of this function is accompanied
by a message in the screen.
Deactivation
Turn the ring forwards or rearwards.
The deactivation of this function
is accompanied by a message in
the screen.
The function is deactivated temporarily
when you use the manual lighting
control stalk. The sidelamps
and dipped beam
headlamps switch
on automatically if
the light is poor, or
during operation of the windscreen
wipers. They switch off as soon as the
light becomes bright enough or the
windscreen wipers stop.
This function is not compatible with the
daytime running lamps.
If the user does not operate any
equipment for 30 minutes, the
Economy mode engages to avoid
discharging the battery (see "Battery"
in section 7). Electrical functions are
put on standby and the battery warning
lamp fl ashes.
Sidelamp operation is not affected by
Economy mode.
On starting the vehicle, in daylight the
LED daytime running lamps come on
automatically.
If the sidelamps and headlamps are
switched on manually or automatically,
the daytime running lamps go off.

Cooling system
Only use the fl uid recommended by the
manufacturer.
Otherwise, you risk seriously damaging
your engine.
When the engine is warm, the
temperature of the coolant is controlled
by the engine fan. As this fan can
operate with the ignition key removed
and because the cooling system is
pressurised, wait for at least one hour
after the engine has stopped before
carrying out any work.
Slacken the cap by 1/4 of a turn to
release the pressure to prevent any
risk of scalding. When the pressure
has dropped, remove the cap and top
up the level with coolant.
If fl uid has to be added frequently,
this indicates a fault which must be
checked by a CITROËN dealer as
soon as possible.
Power steering fluid level
The vehicle must be parked on level
ground with the engine cold. Unscrew
the cap integrated with the gauge and
check the level which must be between
the MIN and MAX marks. In order to regenerate the fi lter, you
are advised to drive at a speed higher
than 40 mph (60 km/h) for at least fi ve
minutes as soon as possible, when
traffi c conditions permit (until the
message disappears and the service
warning lamp goes off).
During regeneration of the particle
emission fi lter, the noise of a relay
operating may be heard under the
dashboard.
If the message is still displayed and
if the service warning lamp remains
on, consult a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Topping up
The level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks on the expansion
bottle. If more than 1 litre of fl uid is
required to top up the level, have the
system checked by a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.
Screenwash and headlamp
wash level
For best quality cleaning and for your
safety, we would advise that you use
products of the CITROËN range.
For optimum cleaning and to avoid
freezing, this fl uid must not be topped
up or replaced with plain water.
Capacity of the screenwash reservoir:
approximately 3 litres.
If your vehicle is fi tted with headlamp
washers, the capacity of the reservoir
is 6 litres.
Diesel additive level
(Diesel with particle
emission filter)
Topping up
This additive must be topped up by
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop without delay.
Waste products
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil
with the skin.
Brake fl uid is harmful to health and
very corrosive.
Do not dispose of used oil, brake fl uid
or coolant into drains or into the ground
but into the containers dedicated to this
use at CITROËN dealer (France) or an
authorised waste disposal site.
The minimum level of this additive
is indicated by lighting of the service
warning lamp, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message in
the screen.
When this occurs with the engine
running it is due to the start of
saturation of the particle emission fi lter
(exceptionally prolonged urban type
driving conditions: low speed, long
traffi c jams, ...).

FUEL CUT-OFF
In a serious collision, a mechanism
automatically prevents fuel from
reaching the engine. The fl ashing of this warning
lamp is accompanied by a
message in the screen.
Check that there is no odour or
leakage of fuel outside the vehicle and
re-establish the fuel supply:
- switch off the ignition (STOP position),
- remove the key,
- put the key back in the ignition,
- switch on the ignition and start.
DIESEL PRIMING PUMP
If you should run out of fuel, it is
necessary to prime the fuel circuit:
- fi ll the fuel tank with at least fi ve litres of Diesel,
- squeeze and release the manual priming pump, under the bonnet
under the protective cover,
- operate the starter until the engine starts.
Refer to the "Under the bonnet"
section of chapter 6. Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly
compatible with biofuels which conform
to current and future European
standards (Diesel fuel which complies
with standard EN 590 mixed with a
biofuel which complies with standard
EN 14214) available at the pumps
(containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain
Diesel engines; however, this use
is subject to strict application of the
special servicing conditions. Contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)
fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure
or diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly
prohibited (risk of damage to the
engine and fuel system).

Battery
BATTERY
Before disconnecting the battery, you
must wait for 2 minutes after switching
off the ignition.
Never disconnect a terminal when the
engine is running.
Never charge a battery without fi rst
disconnecting the terminals.
After every reconnection of the battery,
switch on the ignition and wait 1 minute
before starting to allow the electronic
systems to be initialised. If problems
remain after doing this, please contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
After changing bulbs, wait
approximately 3 minutes before
reconnecting the battery.
It is advisable to disconnect the
battery if the vehicle is not to be
used for a period of more than
one month.
To charge the battery using a
battery charger
- Disconnect the battery,
- Follow the instructions for use given by the battery charger
manufacturer,
- Reconnect starting with the negative (-) terminal,
- Check that the terminals and connectors are clean. If they are
covered with sulphate (white or
greenish deposit), disconnect them
and clean them.
To start the vehicle from
another battery
- Connect the red cable to the positive (+) terminals of the
two batteries,
- Connect one end of the green or black cable to the negative (-)
terminal of the slave battery,
- Connect the other end of the green or black cable to an earth point on
the broken down vehicle as far as
possible from the battery,
- Operate the starter, let the engine run,
- Wait for the engine to return to idle, then disconnect the cables.
The presence of this label
indicates the use of a 12 V
lead-acid battery with special
technology and specifi cation, for which
the involvement of a CITROËN dealer
or qualifi ed workshop is required when
replacing or disconnecting the battery.
Failure to observe this
recommendation may cause premature
wear of the battery.
After refi tting the battery, the Stop &
Start system will only be active after
several hours depending on the
climatic conditions and the state of
charge of the battery (up to about
8 hours).
The Stop & Start battery does not have
to be disconnected for charging.

ECONOMY MODE
After the engine has stopped, with
the key in the ignition position, certain
functions (windscreen wiper, electric
windows, courtesy lamps, audio
equipment, etc.) can only be used for a
cumulative duration of thirty minutes, to
prevent discharging of the battery.
Once the thirty minutes are over, the
active functions are put on standby
and the battery warning lamp fl ashes
accompanied by a message in the
screen.
To resume the use of these functions
immediately, start the engine and let it
run for a few minutes.
The time available will then be double
the time for which the engine was left
running. However, this time will always
be between fi ve and thirty minutes.
A fl at battery will prevent the engine
from starting.

QUESTIONANSWERSOLUTION
The stored stations do not function (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
An incorrect waveband is selected. Press the BAND AST button to return to the waveband (AM, FM1, FM2, FMAST) on which the stations are stored.
The traffi c announcement (TA) is displayed. I do not receive any traffi c information.
The radio station is not part of the regional traffi c information network. Tune to a radio station which broadcasts traffi c information.
The quality of reception of the radio station listened to gradually deteriorates or the stored stations do not function (no sound, 87.5 Mhz is displayed...).
The vehicle is too far from the transmitter used by the station listened\
to or there is no transmitter in the geographical area through which the\
vehicle is travelling.
Activate the RDS function to enable the system to check whether there is a more powerful transmitter in the geographical area.
The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks...) blo\
ck reception, including in RDS mode. This phenomenon is normal and does not indicate a failure of the audio equipment.
The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going through a car wash or into an underground car park). Have the aerial checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Sound cut-outs of 1 to 2 seconds in radio mode. During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for any frequency permitting better reception of the station. Deactivate the RDS function if the phenomenon is too frequent and always on the same route.
With the engine off, the audio equipment switches off after a few minutes of use.
When the engine is switched off, the audio equipment operating time depends on the battery charge.
The switch-off is normal: the audio equipment switches to economy mode and switches off to prevent discharging of the vehicle's battery.
Start the vehicle's engine to increase the battery charge.
The message "the audio system is overheated" appears on the display.
In order to protect the installation if the surrounding temperature is t\
oo high, the audio equipment switches to an automatic thermal protection mode leading to a reduction of the volume or stopping of the playing of \
the CD.
Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to allow the system to cool.
