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.

FUEL TANK
Capacity of the tank: approximately
60 litres.
When the low fuel level in the
tank is reached, this warning
lamp comes on in the instru-
ment panel, accompanied by an
audible warning and the display
of an alert message. When it
fi rst comes on, around 6 litres
of fuel remain in the tank.
Until suffi cient fuel has been added,
every time the ignition is switched on,
this warning lamp appears, accompa-
nied by an audible signal and an alert
message. When driving, this audible
signal and the display of this alert mes-
sage are repeated with increasing fre-
quency, as the level drops towards 0
.
You must refuel as soon as possible to
avoid running out.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer also
to "Checks".
Low fuel level
Refuelling
Additions of fuel must be of at least
5 litres to be registered by the fuel
gauge.
Opening the fi ller cap may result in an
inrush of air. This vacuum is entirely
normal and results from the sealing of
the fuel system.
If you have put in the wrong
fuel for your vehicle, you must
have
the tank drained and re-
fi lled with the correct fuel be-
fore you start the engine.
Press control A
until the automatic
opening of the fuel fl ap is heard.
This control remains active for a few
minutes after switching off the igni-
tion. If necessary, switch the ignition
on again to reactivate it.
If you are fi lling your tank to the top,
do not persist after the third cut-off;
this could cause your vehicle to mal-
function.
Take care to select the pump that
delivers the correct fuel for your
vehicle.
With Stop & Start, never refuel
with the system in STOP mode;
you must switch off the ignition
with the key.
Introduce the nozzle so as to push
in the metal non-return fl ap B.
Make sure that the nozzle is pushed
in as far as possible before starting
to refuel (risk of blowback).
Maintain this position while refuelling.
Push the fuel fl ap to close it.

Quality of the fuel used for
petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly com-
patible with E10 or E24 type petrol
biofuels (containing 10 % or 24 % etha-
nol), conforming to European standards
EN 228 and EN 15376.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 %
ethanol) are reserved exclusively for
vehicles marketed for the use of this
type of fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The
quality of the ethanol must comply with
European standard EN 15293.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are
marketed to run on fuels containing up
to 100 % ethanol (E100 type).
Quality of the fuel used for
Diesel engines
The Diesel engines are perfectly com-
patible with biofuels which conform to
current and future European standards
(Diesel fuel which complies with stan-
dard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which
complies with standard EN 14214)
available at the pumps (containing up
to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The B30 biofuel can be used in certain
Diesel engines; however, this use is sub-
ject to strict application of the special ser-
vicing conditions. Contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel
(vegetable or animal oils, pure or dilut-
ed, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited
(risk of damage to the engine and fuel
system).
The petrol or Diesel engine of your vehicle
is fi tted with a catalytic converter, a device
which helps to reduce the level of harmful
emissions in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, the use of unleaded
fuel is compulsory.
The fi ller neck is narrower, admitting un-
leaded petrol nozzles only.
Fuel supply cut-off
Your vehicle is equipped with a safety
device which cuts off the fuel supply in
the event of a collision.

MISFUEL PREVENTION
(DIESEL) *
Mechanical device which prevents fi ll-
ing the tank of a Diesel vehicle with
petrol. It avoids the risk of engine dam-
age that can result from fi lling with the
wrong fuel.
Located in the fi ller neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the
fi ller cap is removed.
Operation
When a petrol fi ller nozzle is introduced
into the fuel fi ller neck of your Diesel
vehicle, it comes into contact with the
fl ap. The system remains closed and
prevents fi lling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel
type fi ller nozzle.
It remains possible to use a fuel
can to fi ll the tank.
In order to ensure a good fl ow of
fuel, do not place the nozzle of
the fuel can in direct contact with
the fl ap of the misfuel prevention
device and pour slowly.
* According to country of sale.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may
be different in other countries,
the presence of the misfuel pre-
vention device may make refuel-
ling impossible.
Before travelling abroad, we
recommend that you check with
the CITROËN dealer network,
whether your vehicle is suitable
for the fuel pumps in the country
in which you want to travel.

LIGHTING CONTROLS
System for selection and control of the
various front and rear lamps providing
the vehicle's lighting.
Main lighting
The various front and rear lamps of the
vehicle are designed to adapt the driver's
visibility progressively according to the
climatic conditions:
- sidelamps, to be seen,
- dipped beam headlamps to see
without dazzling other drivers,
- main beam headlamps to see clear-
ly when the road is clear.
Additional lighting
Other lamps are provided to meet the
requirements of particular driving con-
ditions:
- rear foglamps,
- front foglamps with cornering lighting,
- directional headlamps for improved
visibility when cornering,
- daytime running lamps to be more
visible during the day,
- guide-me-home and welcome light-
ing to facilitate access to the vehicle,
- parking lamps as vehicle position
markers.
Programming
The setting of some functions can be
adjusted:
- daytime running lamps,
- automatic illumination of headlamps,
- guide-me-home lighting,
- welcome lighting,
- directional lighting.
In some weather conditions (e.g.
low temperature or humidity), the
presence of misting on the inter-
nal surface of the glass of the
headlamps and rear lamps is nor-
mal; it disappears after the lamps
have been on for a few minutes.
