It allows the use of the vehicle's electric e
quipment   or   portable   devices   to   be   charged.
Once
  the   state   of   charge   of   the   battery   drops  
t

o   the   reserve   level,   the   system   switches   to

Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has a  special   code.   When   the   ignition   is   switched  
o

n,   this   code   must   be   recognised   in   order   for  
s

tarting   to   be   possible.
This
  electronic   engine   immobiliser   locks   the  
e

ngine   management   system   a   few   moments  
a

fter   the   ignition   is   switched   off   and   prevents  
s

tarting   of   the   engine   by   anyone   who   does   not  
h

ave   the   key.In the event of a fault, you are
informed
  by   illumination   of   this  
w

arning   lamp,   an   audible   signal   and   a   message  
i

n   the   screen.
In
  this   case,   your   vehicle   will   not   start;   contact  
a

  CITROËN   dealer   as   soon   as   possible.
Keep

c

ause   a   malfunction.

The incorrect installation of a child seat in a vehicle   compromises   the   child's   protection   in  
t

he   event   of   an   accident.
Ensure
  that   there   is   no   seat   belt   or   seat   belt  
b

uckle   under   the   child   seat,   as   this   could  
de

stabilise
 i
t.
Remember
  to   fasten   the   seat   belts   or   the  
c

hild   seat   harnesses   keeping   the   slack  
r

elative   to   the   child's   body   to   a   minimum,  
e

ven   for   short   journeys.
When
  installing   a   child   seat   using   the   seat  
b

elt,   ensure   that   the   seat   belt   is   tightened  
c

orrectly   on   the   child   seat   and   that   it   secures  
t

he   child   seat   firmly   on   the   seat   of   your  
v

ehicle.   If   your   passenger   seat   is   adjustable,  
m

ove   it   for wards   if   necessary.
At
  rear   seating   positions,   always   leave  
s

ufficient   space   between   the   front   seat   and:
-
 
a
  rear ward   facing   child   seat,
-
 
t
he   child's   feet   for   a   child   seat   fitted  
fo

rward
 f
acing.
To
  do   this,   move   the   front   seat   for wards  
a

nd,   if   necessary,   move   its   backrest   into   the  
u

pright
 p
osition.
Advice
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
-  a   child   or   children   alone   and  
u

nsupervised   in   a   vehicle,
-
 
a
  child   or   an   animal   in   a   vehicle   which  
i

s   exposed   to   the   sun,   with   the   windows  
c

losed,
-
 
t
he   keys   within   reach   of   children   inside  
t

he   vehicle.
To
  prevent   accidental   opening   of   the   doors  
a

nd   rear   windows,   use   the   child   lock.
Take
  care   not   to   open   the   rear   windows   by  
m

ore   than   one   third.
To
  protect   young   children   from   the   rays   of
