INSTRUMENTS and CONTROLS
WARNING LAMPS AND INDICATORS
Central STOP
warning lamp
T h i s fl a s h e s f o r a f e w
seconds each time the ignition is
switched on. It is linked with the
warnings for:
- "engine oil pressure",
- "coolant temperature".
Stop immediately if this
lamp
comes
on with the engine running.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Engine oil pressure
warning lamp
This comes on each time the
ignition is switched on until
the engine is started.
If it comes on linked with the STOP
warning lamp, with the engine running,
this indicates that the oil pressure is too
low.
Stop immediately.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Coolant temperature
warning lamp
This comes on for a few
seconds each time the ignition is
switched on. Anti-lock braking
system (ABS) warning
lamp
This comes on for a few seconds
each time the ignition is switched on.
Fixed lighting indicates a malfunction
of the ABS.
However, the vehicle retains conven-
tional braking with servo-assistance.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Parking brake, low
brake fluid level
and braking system
warning lamp
This comes on each time the ignition
is switched on until the parking brake
is released. Electric power steering
warning lamp
This comes on for a few sec-
onds each time the ignition is
switched on.
Fixed lighting, when the vehicle is
moving, indicates a malfunction of
the electric steering system.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
If this warning lampcomes on, with
the engine running, this indicates
an abnormal increase in the coolant
temperature.
Stop immediately .
Check the coolant level.
To do this, wait until the engine has
cooled before topping up the level.
The cooling system is pressurised.
When checking the level, and
to avoid any risk of scald-
ing, unscrew the cap 1/4 of
a turn to allow the pressure
to drop.
When the pressure has dropped, re-
move the cap.
Then:
1. top up, if necessary
(see "Levels").
2. or, if the level is satisfactory,
contact a CITROËN dealer. Fixed lighting, with the engine run-
ning, indicates one of the following:
- that the parking brake is applied
or has not been released fully,
when the vehicle is moving,
- an excessive drop in the brake fl u i d l e v e l ( i f t h e w a r n i n g l a m p
remains on even with the parking
brake released),
- a braking system fault.
Stop immediately.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.

COMFORT
ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
The incorrect installation of a
child seat in a vehicle compromises
the child's protection in the event of
an accident.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or
the child seat harness k e e p i n g t h e
s l a c k in relation to the child's body
to a minimum , e v e n f o r s h o r t j o u r -
neys.
F o r o p t i m u m i n s t a l l a t i o n o f t h e " f o r -
ward facing" child seat, ensure that
the back of the child seat is in contact
with the back of the vehicle's seat
and that the head restraint does not
cause any discomfort.
I f t h e h e a d r e s t r a i n t h a s t o b e r e -
moved, ensure that it is stored or
attached securely to prevent it from
being thrown around the vehicle in
the event of sharp braking. Children under the age of 10 must not
travel in the "forward facing" position
on the front passenger seat, unless
the rear seats are already occupied
by other children, cannot be used or
are absent.
Deactivate the passenger airbag
w h e n a " r e a r f a c i n g " c h i l d s e a t i s i n -
stalled on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being
seriously injured or killed if the airbag
w e r e t o i n fl a t e .
As a safety precaution, do not leave:
- o n e o r m o r e c h i l d r e n a l o n e a n d
unsupervised in a vehicle,
- a c h i l d o r a n a n i m a l i n a v e h i c l e which is exposed to the sun, with
the windows closed,
- t h e k e y s w i t h i n r e a c h o f c h i l d r e n inside the vehicle.
To protect young children from the
r a y s o f t h e s u n , fi t s i d e b l i n d s o n t h e
rear windows.
I n s t a l l i n g a b o o s t e r s e a t
The chest part of the seat belt must
be positioned on the child's shoulder
without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat
belt passes correctly over the child's
thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of
a b o o s t e r s e a t w h i c h h a s a b a c k , fi t -
ted with a seat belt guide at shoulder
level.

SAFETY
HORN
Press one of the spokes of the steering
wheel.
HAZARD WARNING LAMPS
Press the button, the direction indica-
t o r s fl a s h .
They can operate with the ignition
off.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) AND EBFD AND CSC * BRAKING SYSTEMS
The ABS, in conjunction with the
EBFD and CSC * braking systems,
increases the stability and manoeu-
vrability of your vehicle on braking
and provides improved control, in
particular on poor or slippery road
surfaces.
The ABS prevents wheel lock in the
event of emergency braking.
The EBFD and CSC * systems pro-
vide full control of the braking pres-
sure wheel by wheel. A distribution
between:
- the front and the rear in the case of the EBFD (Electronic Brake
Force Distribution),
- the left and the right in the case of the CSC * (Cornering Stability
Control).
When the vehicle is being driv-
en, illumination of this warning
lamp indicates that the park-
ing brake is still on or has not
been properly released.
When parking on a slope,
direct your wheels towards
the pavement and pull the
parking brake
.
PARKING BRAKE
Applying
Pull the parking brake to immobilise
your vehicle.
Note: when changing wheels
(tyres), make sure that these
are approved.
The anti-lock braking system
comes into operation automatically
when there is a risk of wheel lock.
* The CSC system is linked with the E B F D o n v e h i c l e s w h i c h a r e n o t fi t -
ted with ASR/ESP systems.
Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the but-
ton to release the parking brake.

SAFETY When this warning lamp
comes on, it indicates that
there is a malfunction of the
ABS, which can cause a
loss of control of the vehicle
when braking.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
When these warn-
ing lamps come
on simultaneous-
ly, it indicates that
there is a malfunc-
tion of the braking system or that the
parking brake has not been released
fully, which can cause a loss of con-
trol of the vehicle when braking.
Stop immediately.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Normal operation of the ABS
may make itself felt by slight
vibrations of the brake pedal.
In emergency braking,
p r e s s v e r y fi r m l y w i t h o u t
releasing the pressure. TRACTION CONTROL (ASR)
AND DYNAMIC STABILITY
CONTROL (ESP)
These systems are linked and sup-
plement the ABS.
The ASR system optimises drive to
prevent the wheels skidding, by act-
ing on the brakes of the driving wheels
and on the engine. It also allows the
directional stability of the vehicle to
be improved on acceleration.
If there is a variation between the tra-
jectory followed by the vehicle and
that required by the driver, the ESP
system automatically acts on the
brake of one or more wheels and on
the engine to put the vehicle back on
course, within the limits of the laws
of physics.
Operating check
Operation of the ASR and ESP
systems When one of these two
systems is operating, this
warning lamp comes on. When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, this warn-
ing lamp comes on.
The ASR/ESP systems offer
exceptional safety during nor-
mal driving, but this should
not encourage the driver to
take extra risks or drive at
high speed.
Correct operation of these systems
depends on observation of the man-
ufacturer's recommendations re-
garding the wheels (tyres and rims),
the braking components and the
electronic components as well as the
CITROËN dealer repair procedures.
After an impact, have these systems
checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Activation of the ESP system is also
accompanied by an audible signal. Contact a CITROËN dealer to have
the systems checked.
