According to country.
Automatic switching off
When the lights stalk is at "dipped head-
lamps or main beam headlamps", if the
ignition switch is at "LOCK" or "ACC" or
if the key has been removed from the
ignition switch, the lights switch off auto-
matically when the driver's door is
opened
.
On vehicles which are equipped with day-
time running lamps, the dipped beam head-
lamps come on when the vehicle is started.
This warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel.
The instruments and controls (instrument
panel, multifunction screen, air condition-
ing control panel, ...) are illuminated. The sidelamps and the dipped beam
headlamps come on automatically, with-
out any action on the part of the driver,
if a low level of exterior light is detected
or if the wipers are switched on.
When the light returns to a suffi cient
level or the wipers are switched off, the
lighting is switched off automatically.
The sensor is located at the base of the
windscreen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a quali-
fi ed workshop to adjust the sensitivity
of the sensor.
In foggy weather or in snow, the
sunshine sensor may detect suf-
fi cient light. The lighting will not
come on automatically.
Do not cover the sunshine sensor, the
associated functions will no longer be
controlled.
The sensitivity of the automatic illumina-
tion of headlamps can be confi gured via
the colour screen "Equipment" menu.

SAFETY
104 The ASC/TCL systems offer ex-
ceptional safety in normal driving,
but this should not encourage the
driver to take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
The correct functioning of these sys-
tems depends on observation of the
manufacturer's recommendations on:
- wheels (tyres and rims),
- braking components,
- electronic components,
- assembly and repair procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a ve-
hicle which is bogged down, stuck in
snow, on soft ground, ...), it may be ad-
visable to deactivate the ASC system,
so that the wheels can move freely and
regain grip.
)
Press the "ASC OFF"
button, locat-
ed to the left of the steering wheel,
until the ASC OFF symbol appears
on the instrument panel screen.
The display of this symbol in the top
right corner of the instrument panel
screen indicates that the ASC and TCL
systems are deactivated.
Reactivation
These systems are not reactivated au-
tomatically above 30 mph (50 km/h).
)
Press the "ASC OFF"
button again
to reactivate them manually.
Switching off of the symbol in the top
right corner of the instrument panel
screen indicates the reactivation of the
ASC and TCL systems.
Operating fault
The displaying of this mes-
sage on the instrument panel
screen indicates a malfunc-
tion of these systems.
Contact a CITROËN deal-
er or a qualifi ed workshop to have the
ASC/TCL systems checked.
TRAJECTORY CONTROL
SYSTEMS
Activation
These systems are activated automati-
cally each time the vehicle is started.
They operate when the vehicle speed is
higher than 10 mph (15 km/h).
Traction control and automatic
stability control
Traction control optimises traction to
prevent wheel spin, by acting on the
brakes of the driving wheels and on the
engine.
Automatic stability control acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on the
engine to keep the vehicle on the tra-
jectory required by the driver.
They come into operation in
the event of a grip or trajectory
problem.
This is indicated by fl ashing
of this symbol on the instrument panel
screen.
Associated systems which guarantee
the directional stability of the vehicle
within the limits of the laws of physics:
- traction control (TCL),
- automatic stability control (ASC).

AIRBAGS
The airbags do not operate
when the ignition is switched
off.
This equipment will only operate
once. If a second impact occurs (dur-
ing the same or a subsequent acci-
dent), the airbag will not operate.
Front airbags
System which protects the head and
chest of the driver and front passenger
in the event of a front impact.
The driver's airbag is fi tted in the centre
of the steering wheel; the front passen-
ger's airbag is fi tted in the dashboard
above the glove box.
Deployment
The airbags are deployed simultane-
ously, unless the passenger's front
airbag is deactivated, in the event of
a serious front impact applied to all or
part of the front impact zone A
, in the
longitudinal centreline of the vehicle on
a horizontal plane and directed from the
front to the rear of the vehicle.
The front airbag infl ates between the
front occupant of the vehicle and the
dashboard to cushion their forward
movement.
Impact detection zones
A.
Front impact zone.
B.
Side impact zone.
Deployment of the airbag(s) is ac-
companied by a slight emission of
harmless smoke and a noise, due to
the activation of the pyrotechnic car-
tridge incorporated in the system.
This smoke is not harmful, but sensi-
tive individuals may experience slight
irritation.
The noise of the detonation may re-
sult in a slight loss of hearing for a
short time.
System designed to maximise the safety
of the occupants (with the exception of
the rear centre passenger) in the event
of violent collisions. It supplements the
action of the force-limiting seat belts.
If a collision occurs, the electronic de-
tectors record and analyse the front
and side impacts sustained in the im-
pact detection zones:
- in the case of a serious impact, the
airbags are deployed instantly and
protect the occupants of the vehicle
(with the exception of the rear cen-
tre passenger); immediately after the
impact, the airbags defl ate rapidly so
that they do not hinder visibility or the
exit of the occupants,
- in the case of a minor or rear impact
or in certain roll-over conditions, the
airbags will not be deployed; the
seat belt alone is suffi cient to pro-
vide optimum protection in these
situations.

Battery
Check the electrolyte level
regularly. If necessary, top up
the level with distilled water.
Check that the terminals are
clean and correctly tightened,
particularly in summer and winter.
When carrying out work on the battery,
refer to the "Practical information" sec-
tion for details of the precautions to be
taken before disconnecting the battery
and following its reconnection.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the replacement
intervals for these compo-
nents.
Depending on the environ-
ment (dusty atmosphere...) and the use
of the vehicle (city driving...), replace
them twice as often if necessary (refer
to the "Engines" paragraph).
A clogged passenger compartment fi l-
ter may have an adverse effect on the
performance of the air conditioning sys-
tem and generate undesirable odours.
Oil filter
Replace the oil fi lter each time
the engine oil is changed.
Refer to the servicing booklet
for details of the replacement
interval for this component.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
Maintenance of the particle emission fi l-
ter must be carried out by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
Following prolonged operation of
the vehicle at very low speed or at
idle, you may, exceptionally, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does
not have any adverse effect on the
performance of the vehicle or on the
environment.
Avoid any prolonged contact of
used oil or fl uids with the skin.
Most of these fl uids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fl uids
into sewers or onto the ground.
Empty used oil into the contain-
ers provided for this purpose at
CITROËN dealers (France) or a
qualifi ed workshop, or take them to
an authorised waste disposal site. Do not discard the oil fi lter through
public channels, deposit it in the
containers dedicated to this use
in the CITROËN network (France) or a
qualifi ed workshop or take them to an
authorised waste disposal site. Unless otherwise indicated, check
these components in accordance with
the servicing booklet and in relation to
your engine.
Otherwise, have them checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.

AUDIO and TELEMATICS
AUDIO-VIDEO
What is RDS?
RDS station following
Tr a ffi c information function
Your radio automatically checks
and selects the best frequency
for the radio station to which it is
tuned (if the station broadcasts on sev-
eral transmitters or frequencies).
The frequency of a radio station covers
approximately 30 miles (50 km). The
change from one frequency to another
explains the loss of reception during a
journey.
If the station to which you are listening
does not have several frequencies in
the region in which you are currently lo-
cated, you can deactivate the automatic
frequency following.
Radio Data System (RDS) func-
tion on the FM waveband permits:
- tuning to the same station while
travelling through different regions
(if the transmitters of this station
cover the area through which you
are travelling),
- temporary tuning to traffi c informa-
tion announcements,
- display of the name of the station,
etc...
Most FM stations use RDS.
These stations transmit non-audible
data in addition to their programmes.
The data transmitted in this way allows
you access to various functions, mainly
displaying of the name of the station,
temporary tuning to traffi c information
announcements or automatic station
following.
RDS allows you to continue listening to the
same station by means of the frequency
following. However, in certain conditions,
this RDS frequency following cannot be
provided throughout the country. Radio
stations do not cover the whole country,
which explains the loss of reception of the
station during a journey. The Traffic Program (TP) func-
tion permits automatic and tem-
porary switching to an FM sta-
tion broadcasting traffi c information.
The radio station or the source that you
are listening to at this point is paused.
Once the traffi c information has ended,
the system switches back to the radio
station or the source that you were lis-
tening to initially.
Regional following mode
Some stations are organised in
a network.
In different regions, they broad-
cast different or shared programmes
depending on the time of day.
You can follow:
- a regional station only,
- the entire network, with the possibility
that you will be listening to a different
programme.
Programme types
Some stations offer the option
of listening to a themed type of
programme as a priority, select-
ed from the list available below:
NEWS, AFFAIRS, INFOS, SPORT,
EDUCATE, DRAMA, CULTURE,
SCIENCE, VARIED, POP M, ROCK M,
EASY M, LIGHT M, CLASSICS, OTHER
M, WEATHER, FINANCE, CHILDREN,
SOCIAL, RELIGION, PHONE IN, TRAVEL, LEISURE, JAZZ, COUNTRY, NATION M,
OLDIES, FOLK M, DOCUMENT.
