Limit the causes of
excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place
the heaviest items in the bottom of the boot,
as close as possible to the rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and
reduce wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer...). Preferably use a roof
box.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and
refit your summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations
on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold,
referring to the label in the door aperture,
driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
b
efore a long journey,
-
a
t each change of season,
-
a
fter a long period out of use.
Don't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on
any trailer or caravan. Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine
oil, oil filter, air filter, etc.) and observe the
schedule of operations recommended by the
manufacturer.
When filling the tank, do not continue after the
3
rd cut-off of the nozzle to avoid over flow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only
after the first 1,800 miles (3,000 kilometres)
that you will see the fuel consumption settle
down to a consistent average.

Tyre under-inflation detection
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system monitors the pressures in the four
tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever y time the
tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel
changed.
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.Under-inflation alert
The under-inflation detection system does
not replace the need for vigilance on the
part of the driver.
This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres worsens
road-holding, lengthens braking distances,
causes premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in adverse conditions (heavy
loads, high speeds, long journeys). Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
For more information on the
Identification markings , refer to the
corresponding section.
Checking tyre pressures
This check should be done when the tyres
are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or
after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km)
at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures
shown on the label. This warning is indicated by
continuous illumination of the light,
an audible signal and a message
displayed on the screen.
F
R
educe speed immediately, avoid
excessive steering movements and sudden
braking.
F
S
top as soon as it is safe to do so.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on a simple visual check.
F I f you have a compressor (such as the
one in the temporary puncture repair kit),
check the pressures of the four tyres when
cold. If it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced
speed.
or
F
I
n the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment).
The warning remains active until the
system is reinitialised.

Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve
traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle
when braking.The snow chains must be fitted only to the
front wheels. They must never be fitted to
"space-saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised.Installation tips
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.
F
A
pply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks to prevent movement of your
vehicle.
F
F
it the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
F
M
ove off gently and drive for a few
moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50
km/h).
F
S
top your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face. Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to avoid
damaging your vehicle's tyres and the
road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with
alloy wheels, check that no part of the
chain or its fixings is in contact with the
wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the
type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size.
185/65 R15 9 mm
195/55 R16
For more information on snow chains, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

Spare wheel
Procedure for replacing a damaged wheel with the spare wheel, using the tools provided with the vehicle.
Access to the tools
The tools are installed in the boot under the
f l o o r.
To gain access to it:
F
O
pen the boot.
F
L
ift the floor and remove it.
F
R
emove the storage box containing the
tools.
List of toolsThese tools are specific to your vehicle and
may vary according to the level of equipment.
Do not use them for any purpose other than
those detailed below.
1 Wheel wrench.
For removing the hub cap and removing
the wheel bolts.
2 Jack with built-in handle.
Used to raise the vehicle.
3 Wheel bolt cover removal tool.
Removes the wheel bolt covers on alloy
wheels.
4 Towing eye.
For more information on Towing the vehicle ,
refer to the corresponding section.
The jack must only be used to change
a wheel with a damaged or punctured tyre.
The jack does not require any
maintenance.
The jack meets European standards,
as defined in the Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC.

Access to the spare wheel
The spare wheel is installed in the boot, under
t h e f l o o r.
Depending on the engine, the spare wheel is
a standard wheel or the "space-saver" type
(BlueHDi 100).
Removing the wheel
F Unclip the tool storage box (standard spare wheel).
F
L
oosen the central nut.
F
R
emove the fastening device (nut and bolt).
F
R
aise the spare wheel towards you from
the rear.
F
T
ake the wheel out of the boot.

156
F Clip the tool storage box back into place (standard spare wheel).
If there is no wheel in the well, the
fastening device (nut and bolt) cannot be
refitted.
Putting the wheel back in place
F Put the wheel back in its housing.
F L oosen the nut on the bolt by a few turns.
F
P
osition the fastening device (nut and bolt)
in the middle of the wheel.
F
T
ighten fully until the central nut clicks, to
retain the wheel correctly.
In the event of a breakdown
Page 160 of 306

158
F Place the foot of the jack 2 on the ground and ensure that it is directly below the front
A or rear B jacking point provided on the
underbody, whichever is closest to the
wheel to be changed. F
E xtend the jack 2 until its head comes into contact with the jacking point A or B used, with the
contact sur face A or B on the vehicle correctly engaged with the central part of the head of the
jack.
F
R
aise the vehicle until there is sufficient space between the wheel and the ground to admit the
spare (not punctured) wheel easily.
Ensure that the jack is stable. If the ground is slippery or loose, the jack may slip or drop -
Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only at one of the jacking points A or B under the vehicle,
making sure that the vehicle's contact sur face is centred on the head of the jack. Other wise,
there is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/or the jack dropping - Risk of injury!
In the event of a breakdown

159
F Remove the bolts and store them in a clean place.
F
R
emove the wheel. Stowing the damaged wheel
The damaged wheel can be stowed under
the floor, in the housing for the standard
spare wheel.
To stow an alloy wheel, first remove the
hub cap from the middle of the wheel so
that the fastening device (nut and bolt) can
be put in place.
In the case of a "space-saver" type spare
wheel, the damaged wheel cannot be
stowed under the floor. It must be stowed
in the boot; use a cover to protect the
inside of the boot.
Fitting a wheel
Fastening the spare wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels,
when tightening the bolts on fitting, it is
normal to notice that the washers do not
come into contact with the spare wheel.
The wheel is secured by the conical
contact of each bolt.
After changing a wheel
Do not exceed 50
mph (80 km/h) when
using a "space-saver" type spare wheel.
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked by
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop
without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and
reinstall it on the vehicle as soon as
possible.
