A few driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations at all times and remain  vigilant  whatever  the  traffic  conditions.
Pay
 close  attention  to  the  traffic  and  keep  your Â
h
ands  on  the  wheel  so  that  you  are  ready  to Â
r
eact  at  any  time  to  any  eventuality.
On
 a  long  journey,  a  break  every  two  hours  is Â
s
trongly
 re
commended.
In
 difficult  weather,  drive  smoothly,  anticipate Â
t
he  need  to  brake  and  increase  the  distance Â
f
rom  other  vehicles.
Driving on flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads,  as  this  could  cause  serious  damage Â
t
o  the  engine  or  gearbox,  as  well  as  to  the Â
e
lectrical  systems  of  your  vehicle.If
 you  are  obliged  to  drive  through  water:
- Â
c
heck  that  the  depth  of  water  does  not Â
e
xceed  15  cm,  taking  account  of  waves Â
t
hat  might  be  generated  by  other  users,
- Â
d
eactivate  the  Stop  &  Start  system,
- Â
d
rive  as  slowly  as  possible  without Â
s
talling.  In  all  cases,  do  not  exceed  6  mph  (
10Â km/h),
-  d o  not  stop  and  do  not  switch  off  the Â
e
ngine.
On
 leaving  the  flooded  road,  as  soon  as Â
c
ircumstances  allow,  make  several  light  brake Â
a
pplications  to  dry  the  brake  discs  and  pads.
If
 in  doubt  on  the  state  of  your  vehicle,  contact Â
a
 CITROËN  dealer  or  a  qualified  workshop.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied  -  Risk  of  overheating  and Â
d
amage  to  the  braking  system!
Do
 not  park  or  run  the  engine  when Â
s
tationary  in  areas  where  inflammable Â
s
ubstances  and  materials  (dry  grass, Â
d
ead  leaves...)  might  come  into  contact Â
w
ith  the  hot  exhaust  system  -  Risk  of Â
f
ire!
Never
 leave  a  vehicle  unsupervised Â
w
ith  the  engine  running.  If  you  have Â
t
o  leave  your  vehicle  with  the  engine Â
r
unning,  apply  the  parking  brake Â
a
nd  put  the  gearbox  into  neutral  or Â
p
osition
N or P,
 depending  on  the  type Â
o
f  gearbox.

In

certain  cases,  you  may  have  to  apply Â
m
ore  force  to  the  steering  (wheels  on Â

F
Â
W
ith
Â
a  petrol  engine,  operate  the  starter Â

otor
 by  turning  the  key  to  position  3
without
 pressing  the  accelerator  pedal, Â
u
ntil
Â
the  engine  starts.  Once  the  engine  is Â
r
unning,  release  the  key. F
 W ith  a  Diesel  engine,  turn  the  key  to Â
p
osition 2,
 ignition  on,  to  operate  the Â
eng

 s
ystem.
Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument  panel  then  operate  the  starter m
otor  by  turning  the  key  to  position 3
without
 pressing  the  accelerator  pedal,
 u
ntil  the  engine  starts.  Once  the  engine  is
 r
unning,  release  the  key.
In wintry conditions, the warning lamp can  stay  on  for  a  longer  period.  When Â
t
he  engine  is  hot,  the  warning  lamp Â
d
oes  not  come  on. In
 temperate  conditions,  do  not  leave Â
t
he  engine  at  idle  to  warm  up  but  move Â
o
ff  straight  away  and  drive  at  moderate Â
s
peed.
Never  leave  the  engine  running  in Â
a
n  enclosed  area  without  adequate Â
v
entilation:
 in
ternal
 c
ombustion
 e
ngines  emit  toxic  exhaust  gases, Â
s
uch  as  carbon  monoxide.  Danger  of  i
ntoxication  and  death.
In  very  severe  wintry  conditions Â
(
temperatures  below  -23°C),  to  ensure Â
t
he  correct  operation  and  durability  of Â
t
he  mechanical  components  of  your Â
v
ehicle,  engine  and  gearbox,  it  is Â
n
ecessary  to  leave  the  engine  running Â
f
or  4  minutes  before  moving  off.
If
 the  engine  does  not  start  straight Â
a
way,  switch  off  the  ignition.  Wait  a  few Â
m
oments  before  operating  the  starter Â
m
otor  again.  If  the  engine  does  not Â
s
tart  after  several  attempts,  do  not  keep Â
t
rying:  you  risk  damaging  the  starter Â
m
otor  or  the  engine.
