SAFETY
139

Deactivation
Only the passenger's front airbag can
be deactivated:


)
with the ignition off
, insert the key
in the passenger airbag deactiva-
tion switch,

)
turn it to the "OFF"
position,

)
then, remove the key keeping the
switch in the new position.
According to version, this warn-
ing lamp comes on in the in-
strument panel and/or in the
seat belt and passenger's front
airbag warning lamps display when the
ignition is on and until the airbag is re-
activated. To assure the safety of your child,
the passenger's front airbag
must be deactivated when you
install a "rear facing" child seat
on the front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk
being seriously injured or killed if
the airbag were deployed.

Reactivation
When you remove the child seat, turn
the switch to the "ON"
position to re-
activate the airbag and so assure the
safety of your front passenger in the
event of an impact.
With the ignition on, this warn-
ing lamp comes on in the seat
belt and passenger's front air-
bag warning lamps display for
approximately one minute, if the pas-
senger's front airbag is activated.
Operating fault
If this warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel, accom-
panied by an audible warning
and a message in the screen,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop to have the system checked.
The airbags may no longer be deployed
in the event of a serious impact.
If this warning lamp fl ashes in
the instrument panel and/or in
the seat belt and passenger's
front airbag warning lamps dis-
play, contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualifi ed workshop. The passenger's
front airbag may no longer be deployed
in the event of a serious impact.
If even one of the two airbag
warning lamps comes on continu-
ously, do not install a child seat on
the front passenger seat.
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.

For the airbags to be fully
effective, observe the
following safety rules:
Sit in a normal upright position.
Wear a correctly adjusted seat
belt.
Do not leave anything between
the occupants and the airbags
(a child, pet, object...). This could
hamper the operation of the air-
bags or injure the occupants.
After an accident or if the ve-
hicle has been stolen or broken
into, have the airbag systems
checked.
All work on the airbag sys-
tem must be carried out by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
Even if all of the precautions men-
tioned are observed, a risk of in-
jury or of minor burns to the head,
chest or arms when an airbag is
deployed cannot be ruled out.
The bag infl ates almost instantly
(within a few milliseconds) then
defl ates within the same time dis-
charging the hot gas via openings
provided for this purpose.


Front airbags
Do not drive holding the steering wheel by its spokes or resting your hands on
the centre part of the wheel.
Passengers must not place their feet on the dashboard.
If possible, do not smoke as deployment of the airbags can cause burns or the
risk of injury from a cigarette or pipe.
Never remove or pierce the steering wheel or hit it violently.



Lateral airbags
Use only approved covers on the seats, compatible with the deployment the lateral
airbags. For information on the range of seat covers suitable for your vehicle, you
can contact a CITROËN dealer (see "Practical information - § Accessories").
Do not fi x or attach anything to the seat backs (clothing...). This could cause injury
to the chest or arms if the lateral airbag is deployed.
Do not sit with the upper part of the body any nearer to the door than necessary.

Curtain airbags
Do not fi x or attach anything to the roof. This could cause injury to the head if the
curtain airbag is deployed.
Do not remove the grab handles installed on the roof, they play a part in securing
the curtain airbags.

DRIVING
158
STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the en-
gine temporarily on standby - STOP
mode - during stops in the traffi c (red
lights, traffi c jams, or other...). The en-
gine restarts automatically - START
mode - as soon as you want to move
off. The restart takes place instantly,
quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise
level when stationary.

Operation


Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO"
warning lamp comes
on in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:


- with a manual gearbox
, at speeds
below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal, If your vehicle is fi tted with
the system, a time counter
calculates the sum of the pe-
riods in STOP mode during a
journey. It resets itself to zero every time
the ignition is switched on with the key.

- with the 6-speed electronic gear-
box system
, at a speed below
5 mph (8 km/h), when you press the
brake pedal or put the gear lever
into position N
. With the automatic gearbox
system, for your comfort dur-
ing parking maoeuvres, STOP
mode is not available for a few
seconds after coming out of re-
verse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such
as braking, power steering, for
example.
Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:


- the driver's door is open,

- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,

- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last engine start
using the key,

- the electric parking brake is applied
or being applied,

- the engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the pas-
senger compartment,

- demisting is active,

- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature, brak-
ing assistance, ambient tempera-
ture...) where the engine is needed
to assure control of a system.
In this case, the "ECO"
warning
lamp fl ashes for a few seconds,
then goes off. Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off
the ignition with the key.

This operation is perfectly normal.

Deactivation

Going into engine START mode

At any time, press the "ECO OFF"
switch
to deactivate the system.
This is confi rmed by the switch warn-
ing lamp coming on accompanied by a
message on the screen.
Special cases: START invoked
automatically
If the system has been deacti-
vated in STOP mode, the engine
restarts immediately. The "ECO"
warning lamp goes
off and the engine starts:


- with a manual gearbox
, when you
depress the clutch pedal,

- with the 6-speed electronic gearbox
system
:


●
gear lever in position A
or M
, when
you release the brake pedal,

●
or gear lever in position N
and the
brake pedal released, when you
move the gear lever to position A

or M
,

●
or when you engage reverse gear.

START is invoked automatically when:


- you open the driver's door,

- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,

-
the speed of the vehicle exceeds
15 mph (25 km/h) with a manual
gearbox or 7 mph (11 km/h) with the
6-speed electronic gearbox system,

- the electric parking brake is being
applied,

- some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature, brak-
ing assistance, ambient tempera-
ture...) where the engine is needed
to assure control of a system.
In this case the "ECO"
warning
lamp fl ashes for few seconds,
then goes off.
With a manual gearbox in STOP
mode, if a gear is engaged with-
out fully depressing the clutch
pedal, a warning lamp comes
on or a message is displayed
asking you to depress the clutch
pedal to restart the engine.

Reactivation

Press the "ECO OFF"
switch again.
The system is active again; this is con-
fi rmed by the switch warning lamp go-
ing off and a message in the instrument

The system is reactivated auto-
matically at every new start using
the key.
This operation is perfectly normal.
