In certain cases, you may have to apply more  force  to  the  steering  (wheels  on Â
f
ull  lock,  for  example).
Starting the engine
F With a  petrol  engine,  operate  the  starter  m
otor  by  turning  the  key  to  position  3
without
 pressing  the  accelerator  pedal, Â
u
ntil  the  engine  starts.  Once  the  engine  is Â
r
unning,  release  the  key. F
Â
W

F Â
d
epress  the  clutch  pedal  fully  (manual Â

or
F Â
p
ress  the  brake  pedal  firmly  (electronic  or Â
a
utomatic  gearbox),
F Â
i
nsert  the  key  into  the  ignition  switch;  the Â
s
ystem  recognises  the  code,
F Â
u
nlock  the  steering  column  by Â
s
imultaneously  turning  the  steering  and Â
t
he key.
Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the i
nstrument  panel  then  operate  the  starter m
otor  by  turning  the  key  to  position 3
without
 pressing  the  accelerator  pedal,
 u
ntil  the  engine  starts.  Once  the  engine  is
 r
unning,  release  the  key.
If the engine does not start straight away,  switch  off  the  ignition.  Wait  a Â
f
ew  moments  before  operating  the Â
s
tarter  motor  again.  If  the  engine  does Â
n
ot  start  after  several  attempts,  do  not Â
k
eep  trying:  you  risk  damaging  the Â
s
tarter  motor  or  the  engine.  Contact Â
a
 CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified Â
w
orkshop.
In
 wintry  conditions,  the  warning  lamp Â
c
an  stay  on  for  a  longer  period.  When Â
t
he  engine  is  hot,  the  warning  lamp Â
d
oes  not  come  on. Never  leave  the  engine  running  in Â
a
n  enclosed  area  without  adequate Â
v
entilation:

uch  as  carbon  monoxide.  Danger  of Â
i
ntoxication  and  death.
In  very  severe  wintry  conditions Â
(
temperatures  below  -23°C),  to  ensure Â
t
he  correct  operation  and  durability  of Â
t
he  mechanical  components  of  your Â
v
ehicle,  engine  and  gearbox,  it  is  n
ecessary  to  leave  the  engine  running  f
or  4  minutes  before  moving  off.
In
 temperate  conditions,  do  not  leave Â
t
he  engine  at  idle  to  warm  up  but  move Â
o

Speed limiter
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding  the  speed  programmed  by  the  driver.
When
 the  programmed  speed  limit  is  reached, Â
p
ressing  the  accelerator  pedal  in  the  normal Â
m
anner  no  longer  has  any  effect.
The
 speed  limiter  is  switched on Â
m
anually:
 i

2
0 mph  (30  km/h).
The
 speed  limiter  is  switched off  by  manual Â
o
peration  of  the  control.
The
 programmed  speed  can  be  exceeded Â
t
emporarily  by  pressing  the  accelerator  firmly.
To
 return  to  the  programmed  speed,  simply Â
s
low  down  to  a  speed  below  the  programmed Â
s
peed. The
 speed  limiter  cannot,  in  any
 c
ircumstances,  replace  the  need  to

Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
and electronic stability
programme (ESP)
The anti-slip regulation (also known as Traction Control)  optimises  traction  to  prevent  skidding o
f  the  wheels,  by  acting  on  the  brakes  of  the
 d
riving  wheels  and  on  the  engine.
The
 electronic  stability  programme  acts  on  the
 b
rake  of  one  or  more  wheels  and  on  the  engine
 t
o  keep  the  vehicle  on  the  trajectory  required  by
 t
he  driver,  within  the  limits  of  the  laws  of  physics.
This
 is  indicated  by  flashing  of  this Â
w
arning  lamp  in  the  instrument  panel. The
 ASR /ESP  systems  offer Â
e
xceptional  safety  in  normal  driving,  but Â
t
his  should  not  encourage  the  driver  to Â
t
ake  extra  risks  or  drive  at  high  speed.
The
 correct  functioning  of  these Â
s
ystems  depends  on  observation  of Â
