, the vehicle must be
immobilised with your foot on the brake pedal.

ect position R.
At very low speed, if reverse gear is requested,
this will only be acted on when the vehicle is
immobilised.
At high speed, if reverse gear is requested,
the
N indicator flashes and the gearbox goes
into neutral. To engage a gear again, put the
gear selector into position A or M .Temporary control of gear
changing
You can temporarily take over control of
gear changing using the "+" and "-" steering
mounted paddles: if the engine speed allows,
the request to change gear is acted on.
This function allows you to anticipate certain
situations such as overtaking a vehicle or the
approach to a corner.
After a few moments without any action on
the control paddles, the gearbox resumes
automatic control of the gears. The gears engaged appear in
succession in the instrument panel
screen.
The gear change requests are only acted on if
the engine speed permits.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator
during gear changes.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
changes down automatically to allow the
vehicle to accelerate in the correct gear.
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will not
change up unless the driver acts on the gear
selector or the steering mounted paddles.
Never select neutral N while the vehicle
is moving. You can change mode at any time, be
moving the gear selecto from M to A or
the other way round. Engagement of reverse gear is
accompanied by an audible signal.

Checking levels
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when
the ignition is switched on using the
oil level indicator in the instrument
panel for vehicles so equipped, or
using the dipstick.
Checking using the dipstick
A = MA X
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.
If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Take care when working under the
bonnet, as certain areas of the engine
may be extremely hot (risk of burns)
and the cooling fan could start at any
time (even with the ignition off).
To ensure that the reading is correct,
your vehicle must be parked on a level
sur face with the engine having been off
for more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top up the oil level between
two services (or oil changes). CITROËN
recommends that you check the level, and top
up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms). B = MINIf you find that the level is above the A mark or
below the B mark, do not star t the engine
.

Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the
particle filter is indicated by
the temporary illumination of this warning lamp
accompanied by a message in the multifunction
screen.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit, regenerate
the filter by driving at a speed of at least 40 mph
(60 km/h) until the warning lamp goes off.
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a low
additive level.
For more information on checking levels, refer to
the corresponding section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may be
accompanied by a "burning" smell,
which is per fectly normal.
Following prolonged operation of the
vehicle at very low speed or at idle,
you may, in exceptional circumstances,
notice the emission of water vapour at
the exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the vehicle
or the environment.
Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.
However, check that the terminals are clean
and correctly tightened, particularly in summer
and winter.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for these
components.
Oil filter
Replace the oil filter each time the
engine oil is changed.
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of
the replacement interval for this
component.
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
When carrying out work on the battery, refer
to the "12 V battery" section for details of the
precautions to be taken before disconnecting
the battery and following its reconnection.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g.
city driving), replace them twice as often
if necessary .
A clogged passenger compartment filter may
have an adverse effect on the per formance
of the air conditioning system and generate
undesirable odours.

Insert the CD in the player, insert the USB
memory stick in the USB player or connect the
USB peripheral to the USB port using a suitable
cable (not supplied).
The system builds playlists (in temporary
memory), an operation which can take from
a few seconds to several minutes at the first
connection.
Reduce the number of non-music files and the
number of folders to reduce the waiting time.
The playlists are updated every time the ignition
is switched off or connection of a USB memory
stick. However, the system memorises these
lists and if they are not modified, the loading
time will be shorter.
Play starts automatically after a period which
depends on the capacity of the USB memory
stick.Selection of source
The SOURCE button on the steering mounted controls allows a
direct change to the next media source. "CD / CD MP3"
