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.

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.

Parking lamps 
 
Side markers for the vehicle by illumi-
nation of the sidelamps on the traffi c 
side only. 
   
 
 
  Within one minute of switching off 
the ignition, operate the lighting con-
trol stalk up or down depending on 
the traffi c side (for example: when 
parking on the left; lighting control 
stalk upwards; the right hand side-
lamps are on).  
  This is confi rmed by an audible signal 
and illumination of the corresponding 
direction indicator warning lamp in the 
instrument panel. 
  To switch off the parking lamps, return 
the lighting control stalk to the central 
position.      
Switching off the lighting when 
switching off the ignition 
  When the ignition is switched off, 
all of the lamps switch off immedi-
ately, except for the dipped beam 
headlamps if automatic guide-
me-home lighting is activated.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Manual guide-me-home lighting 
 
The temporary illumination of the dipped 
beam headlamps after the vehicle's ignition 
has been switched off makes the driver's 
exit easier when the light is poor. 
   
Switching on 
   
 
 
 With the ignition off, "fl ash"  the 
headlamps using the lighting stalk. 
   
 
  A further "headlamp fl ash"  switches 
the function off.  
 
   
Switching off 
  The manual guide-me-home lighting 
switches off automatically after a set 
time.  
     
Switching on the lighting 
when switching on the ignition 
  To reactivate the lighting control stalk, turn the ring  A 
 to position  "0" 
 - lighting off, then to the position of 
your choice. 
  If the lighting is switched on manu-
ally after switching off the ignition, 
there is an audible signal when a 
front door is opened to warn the 
driver that they have forgotten to 
switch off the vehicle's lighting, with 
the ignition off. 
  They switch off automatically after a 
period which depends on the state 
of charge of the battery (entry to en-
ergy economy mode).

Automatic illumination of 
headlamps 
  The sidelamps and dipped beam head-
lamps are switched on automatically, 
without any action on the part of the 
driver, when a low level of external light 
is detected or in certain cases of activa-
tion of the windscreen wipers. 
  As soon as the brightness returns to a 
suffi cient level or after the windscreen 
wipers are switched off, the lamps are 
switched off automatically. 
   
Activation 
   
 
 
  Turn ring  A 
 to the  "AUTO" 
 position. 
The automatic illumination of head-
lamps is accompanied by a mes-
sage in the screen.  
 
   
Deactivation 
   
 
 
 Turn ring  A 
 to a position other 
than  "AUTO" 
. Deactivation is ac-
companied by a message in the 
screen.  
    
Coupling with the automatic "Guide-
me-home" lighting 
  Association with the automatic illumi-
nation of headlamps provides "guide-
me-home" lighting with the following 
additional options: 
   
 
-   selection of the lighting duration to 
15, 30 or 60 seconds in the settings 
in the vehicle confi guration  menu 
(except in the case of the mono-
chrome screen A, for which the 
duration is set: 60 seconds), 
   
-   automatic activation of "guide-me-
home" lighting when automatic illumi-
nation of headlamps is in operation.  
 
 
In the event of a fault with the 
sunshine sensor, the lighting 
come on, this warning lamp is 
displayed on the instrument panel and/or a 
message appears in the screen, accompa-
nied by an audible signal. 
  Contact a CITROËN or a qualifi ed  work-
shop workshop. 
   
Operating fault 
  In fog or snow, the sunshine 
sensor may detect suffi cient 
light. Therefore, the lighting will 
not come on automatically. 
  Do not cover the sunshine sen-
sor, coupled with the rain sensor 
and located in the centre of the 
windscreen behind the rear view 
mirror; the associated functions 
would no longer be controlled.
