A few definitions…

This value may vary following a
change in the style of driving or
the relief, resulting in a signifi -
cant change in the current fuel
consumption.
If dashes are displayed continu-
ously while driving in place of the
digits, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop. This function is only displayed
from 20 mph (30 km/h).
Range
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
which can still be travelled
with the fuel remaining in the tank in
relation to the average fuel consump-
tion over the last few miles (kilometres)
travelled.
When the range falls below 20 miles
(30 km), dashes are displayed. After
fi lling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the
range is recalculated and is displayed
when it exceeds 60 miles (100 km).
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)
This is the average fuel con-
sumption during the last few
seconds.

Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)


This is the average fuel con-
sumption since the last trip
computer zero reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)
This is the average speed calcu-
lated since the last trip computer
zero reset (ignition on).

Distance travelled
(miles or km)
This indicates the distance
travelled since the last trip
computer zero reset.








Stop & Start time counter
(minutes/seconds or hours/
minutes)
If your vehicle is fi tted with Stop & Start,
a time counter calculates the time spent
in STOP mode during a journey.
It resets to zero every time the ignition
is switched on with the key.

The fuel consumption of your
vehicle will be higher than
the offi cial fi gures obtained
by CITROËN during the fi rst
3 000 miles (5 000 km) of the
vehicle's life.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR VENTILATION AND AIR
CONDITIONING
In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and
maintenance guidelines below:



To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior
air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the
vents and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located in the boot.


Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located on the dashboard; this is
used for regulation of the air conditioning system.


Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or
twice a month to keep it in perfect working order.


Ensure that the passenger compartment fi lter is in good condition and
have the fi lter elements replaced regularly.
We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment fi lter.
Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purifi cation of
the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy
deposits).


To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also
advised to have it checked regularly as recommended in the mainte-
nance and warranty guide.


If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures,
switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power and
so improves the towing ability.
If after an extended stop in sun-
shine, the interior temperature is
very high, fi rst ventilate the pas-
senger compartment for a few
moments.
Put the air fl ow control at a set-
ting high enough to quickly
change the air in the passenger
compartment.
The air conditioning system
does not contain chlorine and
does not present any danger to
the ozone layer.

The condensation created by
the air conditioning results in a
discharge of water under the ve-
hicle which is perfectly normal.



Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is
running. To maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compart-
ment, you can temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start system (see the
corresponding section).

3
COMFORT
66
For maximum cooling or heating
of the passenger compartment,
it is possible to exceed the mini-
mum value 14 or the maximum
value 28.



Turn control 2
or 3
to the left
until "LO"
is displayed or
to the right until "HI"
is dis-
played.

See "Front demisting - defrosting".



4. Automatic visibility programme

Manual operation

If you wish, you can make a different
choice from that offered by the system
by changing a setting. The the "AUTO"

indicator lamps go off; the other func-
tions will still be controlled automati-
cally.



Pressing the "AUTO"
button returns
the system to completely automatic
operation.
2. Driver's side adjustment
The driver and front pas-
senger can each adjust the
temperature to their require-
ments.



Turn control 2
or 3
to the left or to
the right respectively to decrease or
increase this value.
A setting around the value 21 provides
optimum comfort. However, depend-
ing on your requirements, a setting be-
tween 18 and 24 is normal.
You are advised to avoid a left / right
setting difference of more than 3.
3. Passenger's side adjustment
The value indicated on the display cor-
responds to a level of comfort and not
to a temperature in degrees Celsius or
Fahrenheit.






With Stop & Start, when dem-
isting has been activated, the
STOP mode is not available.

Switching the system off

Avoid prolonged operation in in-
terior air recirculation mode or
driving for long periods with the
system off (risk of misting and
deterioration of air quality).
On stopping the engine



- While the control screens remain
on: the function is available.

- Pressing the REST
button activates
the ventilation for a few minutes.
Activation of the function is con-
fi rmed by the display of two dashes
in the control screens and four air
fl ow level indicator lamps.
Locking the vehicle has no effect on
this function.

- The control screens go off at the
end of this period.
Pressing again before the end of
the period interrupts off the ventila-
tion defi nitively: the control screens
go off and the function is no longer
available.


Turn the air fl ow control to
the left until all of the indi-
cator lamps go off.
This action switches off the air condi-
tioning and the ventilation.
Temperature related comfort is no long-
er assured but a slight fl ow of air, due
to the movement of the vehicle, can still
be felt.



Modify the settings (temperature,
air fl ow or air distribution) or press
the "AUTO"
button to reactivate the
system with the values set before it
was switched off.
This switch does not operate the
air conditioning, only the air fan.
When the "REST" function is ac-
tivated, you cannot modify the
temperature, air fl ow and distri-
bution settings: these are con-
trolled automatically according
to the ambient temperature.
This function is not available in
the STOP mode of Stop & Start.

FRONT DEMIST - DEFROST


These markings on the control
panel indicate the control po-
sitions for rapid demisting or
defrosting of the windscreen
and side windows.


With manual air conditioning




Put the temperature, air fl ow and
distribution controls to the dedicated
marked position.


Put the air intake control to the
"Exterior air intake" position
(indicator lamp on the control off).

can only operate when the engine is
running.



Press this button to demist/defrost
the rear screen and (depending on
version) the door mirrors. The indi-
cator lamp associated with the but-
ton comes on.



Switching off

The demisting/defrosting switches off
automatically to prevent an excessive
consumption of current.



It is possible to stop the demisting/de-
frosting operation before it is switched
off automatically by pressing the button
again. The indicator lamp associated
with the button goes off.



Switch off the demisting/de-
frosting of the rear screen
and door mirrors as soon as
appropriate, as lower current
consumption results in re-
duced fuel consumption.



With digital dual-zone air
conditioning

Automatic visibility programme



Select this programme to demist
or defrost the windscreen and side
windows as quickly as possible.
The system automatically manages
the air conditioning, air fl ow and air
intake, and provides optimum distribu-
tion towards the windscreen and side
windows.




To stop the programme, press either the
"visibility"
button again or "AUTO"
,
the warning lamp on the button goes
off and the warning lamp on the

in use before it was overridden by the
visibility programme.







With Stop & Start, when dem-
isting has been activated, the
STOP mode is not available.
With Stop & Start, when the
demisting, air conditioning and
air fl ow functions are activated,
STOP mode is not available.

Anti-theft protection


Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip
which has a special code. When the
ignition is switched on, this code must
be recognised in order for starting to be
possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks
the engine management system a few
minutes after the ignition is switched off
and prevents starting of the engine by
anyone who does not have the key.

In the event of a fault, you
are informed by illumina-
tion of this warning lamp,
an audible signal and a message in the
screen.
In this case, your vehicle will not start;
contact a CITROËN dealer as soon as
possible.










Starting the vehicle




Insert the key in the ignition switch.
The system recognises the starting
code.


Turn the key fully towards the dash-
board to position 3 (Starting)
.


When the engine starts, release
the key.



A heavy object (key fob...), attached to the key and weighing down on
its shaft in the ignition switch, could
cause a malfunction.


Switching the vehicle off




Immobilise the vehicle.


Turn the key fully towards you to
position 1 (Stop)
.


Remove the key from the ignition
switch.










Key left in the "Ignition on"
position
On opening the driver's door, an alert
message is displayed, accompa-
nied by an audible signal, to remind
you that the key is still in the ignition
switch at position 1 (Stop)
.
If the key has been left in the ignition
switch at position 2 (Ignition on)
, the
ignition will be switched off automati-
cally after one hour.
To switch the ignition back on, turn
the key to position 1 (Stop)
, then
back to position 2 (Ignition on)
.



Keep safely, away from your
vehicle, the label attached to the
keys given to you on acquisition
of the vehicle.

Lost keys

Go to a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your
personal identifi cation documents and if possible the key code label.
The CITROËN dealer will be able to look up the key code and the transponder
code required to order a new key.






Do not throw the remote con-
trol batteries away, they contain
metals which are harmful to the
environment.
Take them to an approved col-
lection point.

Remote control

The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate
it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the
vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range and
out of sight of your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and
the remote control would have to be reinitialised.
No remote control can operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even
when the ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.


Locking the vehicle

Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compart-
ment by the emergency services more diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution, never leave children alone in the vehicle, except for
a very short period.
In all cases, it is essential to remove the key from the ignition switch when
leaving the vehicle.


Anti-theft protection

Do not make any modifi cations to the electronic engine immobiliser system;
this could cause malfunctions.


When purchasing a second-hand vehicle

Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a
CITROËN dealer, to ensure that only your keys can be used to open and
start the vehicle.

PANORAMIC SUNROOF

Your vehicle is fi tted with a tinted glass
panoramic sunroof which increases
the light and visibility in the passenger
compartment. Its electric blind helps
control the temperature in the passen-
ger compartment.

Electric blind


Opening
Turn the dial to the left (four possible
settings).

Closing
Return the dial to the initial position.
Safety anti-pinch
If the blind encounters an obstacle dur-
ing closing, it stops and partially opens
again.
If the blind fails to close at a second at-
tempt, it may be necessary to force the
closing of the blind using the reinitiali-
sation procedure.
The blind is controlled electrically by a
rotary dial.
In the event of contact during op-
eration of the blind, you must re-
verse its movement. To do this,
turn the dial.
When the driver operates the
dial, they must ensure that noth-
ing prevents the blind from clos-
ing correctly.
The driver must ensure that the
passengers use the blind cor-
rectly.
Be aware of children during
operation of the blind.



Reinitialising the system


Following reconnection of the battery,
or in the event of a malfunction in its
operation, it may be necessary to reini-
tialise the system:



turn the dial to the fully closed posi-
tion,


then immediately press the dial, clos-
ing starts after about 10 seconds,


maintain pressure on the dial until
the blind has fully closed.

The anti-pinch function is inopera-
tive during these operations.


If the position of the blind does not
agree with the position indicated by the
dial, press the dial to open the blind to
this position.
