Ease of use and comfort
Correct driving position
For safety reasons, adjustments must
only be made when the vehicle is
stationary.
Before taking to the road and to make the most
of the ergonomic layout of the instruments and
controls, carry out these adjustments in the
following order:
–
head restraint height.
–
seat backrest angle.
–
seat cushion height.
–
longitudinal seat position.
–
steering wheel height and reach.
–
rear view mirror and door mirrors.
Once these adjustments have been
made, check that the instrument panel
can be viewed correctly from your driving
position.
Front head restraints
Adjusting the height
Upwards:
► Pull the head restraint up to the desired
position; you can feel the head restraint clicking
into position.
Downwards:
►
Press lug
A to lower the head restraint.
The head restraint is correctly adjusted when its upper edge is level with the top
of the occupant's head.
Removing a head restraint
► Pull the head restraint fully up.
► Press lug A to release the head restraint and
raise it fully.
►
Stow the head restraint securely
.
Refitting a head restraint
► Insert the head restraint rods into the guides
in the corresponding seat backrest.
►
Push the head restraint fully down.
►
Press the lug
A to release the head restraint
and push it down.
►
Adjust the height of the head restraint.
Never drive with the head restraints
removed; they should be in place and
adjusted for the occupant of the seat.
Front seats
For safety reasons, seat adjustments
must only be made when the vehicle is
stationary.
Adjustments
Longitudinal
► Raise the control bar and slide the seat
forwards or backwards.
► Release the control bar to lock the seat in
position on one of the notches.
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is no person or object
that might prevent the full travel of the seat.
There is a risk of trapping or pinching
passengers if present in the rear seats or of
jamming the seat if large objects are placed
on the floor behind the seat.
Height
(driver only)
► Pull the control upwards to raise or push it
downwards to lower, until you obtain the position
required.
Page 40 of 244
38
Ease of use and comfort
Before moving the seat backwards,
ensure that there is nothing that might
prevent the full travel of the seat.
When the front passenger seat is fully folded,
only the outer rear seat behind the driver can
be occupied by a passenger.
Do not place hard, heavy or sharp
objects in the centre of the backrest to
ensure that you don't damage rear lining
behind the backrest.
When sharp deceleration occurs, objects
placed on the folded backrest can turn into
dangerous projectiles.
Heated seats
The function is active only with the engine
running and when the outside temperature is
below 20°C.
► Use the adjustment knob to switch on and
select the level of heating required:
0 : Off.
1 : Low
.
2 : Medium.
3 : High.
The front seats can be heated individually.
Do not use the function when the seat
is not occupied.
Reduce the heating intensity as soon as
possible.
When the seat and passenger compartment
have reached a satisfactory temperature,
switch the function off; reducing electrical
consumption in turn decreases energy
consumption.
Prolonged use of heated seats is not
recommended for people with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (e.g.
illness,
taking medication).
To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent
a short circuit:
–
Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the
seat.
–
Do not kneel or stand on the seat.
–
Do not spill liquids onto the seat.
–
Never use the heating function if the seat
is damp.
Rear seats

Safety
its lamp lights up; this indicator lamp appears in
green on the instrument panel.
The system becomes active at speeds below 19
mph (30
km/h).
►
When the vehicle begins its descent, the
driver can release the accelerator and brake
pedals; the system regulates the speed:
– If the gearbox is in first or second gear ,
the speed decreases and the
indicator
lamp flashes rapidly.
–
If the gearbox is in neutral or if the clutch
pedal is depressed, the speed decreases and
the indicator
lamp flashes slowly; in this case,
the maintained descent speed is lower.
On a downward slope, with the vehicle
stationary, if the driver releases the accelerator
and brake pedals, the system will release the
brakes to set the vehicle gradually in motion.
The brake lamps light up automatically when the
system is regulating.
If the speed exceeds 19 mph (30
km/h),
regulation is paused automatically, the
indicator
lamp goes back to grey in the
instrument panel, but the green indicator lamp in
the button remains on.
Regulation resumes automatically when the
speed falls below 19 mph (30
km/h) again, if the
slope and pedal release conditions are met.
You can depress the accelerator or brake pedal
again at any time.
Switching off
► Press this button until its indicator lamp
goes off; the indicator lamp also goes off in the
instrument panel.
Above 43 mph (70 km/h), the system is
automatically deactivated; the indicator lamp in
the button goes off.
Malfunction
If a fault occurs with the system, this
warning lamp comes on in green,
accompanied by the display of a message in the
instrument panel.
Have it checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Seat belts
Inertia reel
The seat belts are equipped with an inertia
reel which allows the strap length to adjust
automatically to the shape of the user. The seat
belt returns to its storage automatically when it
is not used.
The inertia reels are fitted with a device which
automatically locks the strap in the event of a
collision, emergency braking or if the vehicle rolls
over. It can be released by pulling the strap firmly
and then releasing it so that it reels in slightly.
Pyrotechnic pretensioning
This system improves safety in the event of a
frontal or side impact.
Depending on the severity of the impact, the
pyrotechnic pretensioning system instantly
tightens the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
The pyrotechnic pretensioning seat belts are
enabled when the ignition is on.
Force limiting system
This system reduces the pressure of the seat
belt on the chest of the occupant, thus improving
their protection.
In the event of an impact
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of the impacts, the pyrotechnic
device may trigger before and independently
of airbag deployment. Deployment of the
pretensioners is accompanied by a slight
discharge of harmless smoke and a noise,
due to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge incorporated in the system.
In all cases, the airbag warning lamp comes
on.
Following an impact, have the seat belt
system checked, and if necessary replaced,
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a pyrotechnic
pretensioning system and a force limiting
system.
