Starting-switching off the engine
Anti-theft protection
Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has
a special code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks the
engine management system a few minutes
after the ignition is switched off, and prevents
the engine being started by anyone who does
not have the key.
or In the event of a fault, you are
informed by the illumination of this
warning light, an audible signal and
a message in the screen.
In this case, your vehicle will not start; contact
a
CITROËN dealer as soon as possible.
Keep safely, away from your vehicle, the
label attached to the keys given to you on
when you purchased your vehicle.
Key star ter
It has 3 positions:
- position 1 (Stop): insert and removing the
key, steering column locked,
-
position 2 (Ignition on) : steering column
unlocked, ignition on, Diesel preheating,
engine running,
-
position 3 (Starting) .
Ignition on position
It allows the use of the vehicle's electric
equipment or portable devices to be charged.
Once the state of charge of the battery drops
to the reserve level, the system switches to
energy economy mode: the power supply is
cut off automatically to preserve the remaining
battery charge.
Avoid attaching heavy objects to the key
or the remote control, which would weigh
down on its blade in the ignition switch
and could cause a malfunction.
It could adversely affect the deployment of
the front airbag.

Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or
other...). The engine restarts automatically -
START mode - as soon as you want to move
off. Restarting occurs instantly, quickly and
silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.Operation

For your comfort, during parking
manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available
for a few seconds after coming out of
reverse gear.
The STOP mode does not affect the
operation of vehicle systems such as

Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition
using the key.With an electronic gearbox, the
"ECO" indicator illuminates in the

selector is moved into position N
